    I have won four match programmes from old World Cups/qualifiers. I participated in a competition without knowing about the price, I won of course :emoticon-0113-sleep. I do however feel that the programmes belong to someone who actually cares about them. I was -6 years when the latest WC in the collection took place......

    Scotland-Wales 1985 World Cup qualifiers. Hampden Park
    Scotland-Iceland 1984 World Cup qualifiers. Hampden Park
    Northern Ireland-Bulgaria 1973 World Cup. Hillsborough
    England-Denmark 1984 Wembley

    around 10 quid, maximum for all 4, checked before ;) I got an free Barcelona-shirt for a few months ago, decided to give it away for free in an lottery.

    That was probably not a good move, on pure economic bases, but it was fun :angel: Over 200 "contestants", got some publicity :emoticon-0105-wink:

    100 kronor or not, I would rather give it away to someone here.


    PS: I will never learn when to write "an/a" :(

    I'll swap 'em for a Hull City vs Leigh RMI programme, from an LDV Vans Trophy game circa. 2001 at Boothferry Park.

    If a word begins with a vowel or 'H' than you use 'an'. Otherwise it's 'a'.

    I agree with you on that, as at school I was taught it was only before a vowel, but, in the 80's it became the "trendy" thing to say, e.g, "an historical time." I personally have trouble with putting "an" before any word starting with "H".

    I don't make the rules guys, so don't shoot the messenger. I don't say 'an hat' either, but a lot of Toffs and wannabe-Shakespeare's do. They think it makes them look intelligent.

    I think Febbos is probably best just going down the vowel only route.

    Sounds like a vowel movement going on here.

    Shall we have a vote and see if the motion's carried?

    I was only joking. But they do have a different alphabet, and they do have dodgy extra vowels with funny accents and dots and dashes above them.

    Well. We have the same alphabet, with 3 additions :emoticon-0137-clapp

    Ã… (Pronounced like (awe) in awesome
    Ä (Pronounced kinda like "eh", the sound when the dentist asks you to say something, haha)
    Ö (Pronounced kinda like "oe")

    That was todays Swedish lesson :D

    Ask me for words and I will bring them :emoticon-0105-wink:

    If there are 3 additions it's a different alphabet to me. That's what I meant about the different vowels... <doh>
    So that's today's WhiteRoseTiger lesson! <laugh>

    You should think yourself lucky - I normally pull down the panties of people who say such things and give them a jolly great whack across the buttocks
