Do say a final goodbye for me folks to the old nest..... was probably the best place on 606... along with the match threads, prediction threads etc.... will miss the old smilies, the annoying modders and the spammers and wummers.....

Have a good week... I shall be back next weekend.

 

have a great week Yorkshire ...see you in a week!

 

Morning all, a lovely day ahead for me with a Bar Mitzvah this morning, followed by lunch, followed by Champion's League, what could be better! See you later one and all, have a great day View attachment 3407

 

Have a good time Hornette!

Haven't decided whether to watch the Champions League yet. As a matter of course I avoid European games, and the Stevenage Wimbledon game is the only one I've watched on ITV in a very long time. But Barca and United do play some of the most attractive stuff in Europe, so I'm torn.

What has really got my goat though, is that ITV are going to run spot ads during the game. For F1 I can tolerate that. You can't predict accidents, but generally you know when not much is about to happen. For football it's unforgiveable, especially given that we're talking about the same morons responsible for this:

Big day today, I am going over to Aylesbury and my 18 year old daughter is going to introduce me to her boyfriend!!!???!!! As my kids live with my ex this is a huge deal! Anyone got any advice? I mean who is going to feel intimidated me the 48 year old, 6ft 2" skinhead with tattoos or some poor youth!?

 

I did not know you were a youth Al

 

Hi all - the 606 nest is becoming a great party location - at least for the next few days. I reckon the plug will be puled at the end of Tuesday 31st

 

Cheers Lenny, there are times when I do feel much older! Still a spring chicken though at heart!, damn hope there are no foxes round here!

 

Góðan daginn til allra. Cappuccino, coffee, tea and donuts are on the bar.

Frothy cappuccinos for al Leon and W_Y
Coffees for COYH, Frenchie, Kev, rob and theo
Strong coffee for Sandy
Milky coffee for Yorkie
Strong black coffees for Bragi Norway and zen
Tea for jsybaz
Coffee and cake for Minx
Caramel latte for Hornette
A chocolate monster for BBW
And a redwine for NZ as he is so ahead of us in time

Is still morning here so góðan daginn is good. After middy is góðan dag.

I think I will make two tabs open and post the same here and on 606 until the BBC lock the door.

 

Some Biker mates came to dinner last night armed with lots of beer and vodka , my home brew went down well as well second weekend on the spin I got wrecked ,curry for breakfast hey ho

 

This happened in Oz years ago (West Ham vs Fulham final) - the channel repeatedly showed the same ad every 10 minutes or so and consequently missed both goals. I directed my anger to the company in the ad (a motel chain and local pub) - rang them up and told them they had lost my patronage - I would neither be staying at any of their motels nor drinking at their pub again because of the ad. Have stuck to my word too.

Perhaps a similar action should be orchestrated after tonight's game - may hit ITV where it hurts in future.

 

I have a sinking feeling that they will be hit where it hurts, because this will prompt more people to watch next year's final on Sky.

Being the lover of Murdoch that I am, that prospect naturally makes me cockahoot.

 

Afternoon all - Rather a heavy night in The Nest last night with rather too much...

Still onwards and upwards I am off to a mates Wedding reception tonight - so I need to shape up a bit...

 

Have a good one w-y , a quiet recovering night for me I hope

 

Should be a good night Norway - he comes from Baghdad central but supports Leicester, but there will be loads of the filth there...so will have to be on my best behaviour and Mrs W_Y will keep me in check - she knows loads of them anyway as many of their kids went to her nursery school...
