    The wonder of street view.

    Middle floor, right hand window as you look at it. Brigadier Gerald was the local.

    Thirty fookin years ago. I've not been back to York since then.

    Brigadier Gerard, not Gerald.

    Bloody predictive.

    Looks the type of place Fred West might kill and bury people, thinking about it.

    But it still makes you nostalgic.

    Yep.

    Nice area of York though actually so Fred or his ilk unlikely to have crept the footpaths there.

    Chief has the hipster beard. He could probably still get laid if he dyed the grey bits and told HIAG to stop following him.

    Was reading a field geologist's report from working in the swampy plains of Papua New Guinea back in the 1930's. He actually stated that the best way to cross a river was by walking on the tops of crocodiles that were basking there. His argument was that they had such a small brain that they couldn't figure out what was happening until after you had stepped off them. What he didn't explain was how you figured out which crocodiles hadn't had this done to them before.

    He moved you nearer to The Dell though mate. For that alone, you should give thanks.

    Ha, might mate moved to Gloucester, just before Fred West’s crimes came to light. His house became quite a tourist attraction after that (Fred West’s, not my mate’s).

    Yes my love and experiences of supporting the Saints is a good compensation , supporting Torquay might not have been as fulfilling (although I follow them) and I could well have ended up a Manure fan like my Dad God forbid, (he prefers the Saints now though).

    I was cheering you lads on against the Spuds in 2016, what your club achieved may not be emulated outside of the big 5 for a very long time IMO.

    And yes, I would probably keep bringing it up in every dispute as well, might have less impact in a few years though...<whistle>
