Love them floodlights, me.

When I was a kid, at half time or if the game was boring, I used to count the bulbs. <laugh>


Another bizarre ritual I had was that I could only have a goodie out of my quarter of pineapple chunks or pear drops if City scored, got a corner or had a half decent chance.


Sure that I'm on the spectrum to be honest.


Come to think of it, if you applied those rules to sweet eating at the moment, watching City, you wouldn't even get the bag open would you?

There were times when counting the bulbs was preferable or the excitement of the 'Giants' at half time ;)

For those of you who are placing Christmas lights/decorations in your garden this year around East Yorkshire, can you please avoid anything that has red, white and blue mixed flashing lights...

Last year, every time I came around the corner, I thought it was the police and would have a panic attack!

Numerous times, I had to brake hard, toss my bottle of gin out the window, fasten my seat belt, throw my phone on the floor, turn my music down, push the gun under the seat and throw enough illegal substance out the window that it looks like a snow storm, all whilst trying to drive!!

It's just too much drama, even for Christmas.
Thank you all in anticipation for your cooperation and understanding.

Congratulations SW3, at least it appears you have a driving licence and are insured!

One for the guitar bods on here. Concert last night chap called Nic Meier playing an 11- string fretless guitar, wonderful sound. Playing with Pete Oxley, worth a listen on utube.
