    I know I've asked you this before Bolton but you are somewhere in Aberdeenshire - so is my brother - he is in Monaltrie near Ballater - anywhere near you?

    You like me must have some special questions that they have stuck in for the Welsh and Scots

    It was very good thanks Leonardo :)...and it beats real work on a Sunday, which is what i usually do...though losing an hour and having to be up and ready to think wasn't that easy, it has to be said lol.

    Thanks or letting me know that you have lost an hour. So next Saturday's game is an hour earlier. That means kick off will be at 3 am Sunday morning. But at 3am next Sunday morning daylight saving ends for us so 3am becomes 2am. If I wake between 5.30 and 6, as i usually do, the game will not just be finishing but will have been over for an hour and it will really be between 4.30 and 5.

    I think that's right

    About 65 miles due south from here. Sounds like he's in picture-postcard-Scotland - pine trees, squirrels, mountains, eagles etc, all wrapped up in twisty turny roads.

    I went that way once on the way to Edinburgh, thinking that it would be far quicker than driving through the nightmare that is Aberdeen - added an extra 90 minutes to the journey <doh>

    Am having a break from the census - trying to work out if my knowledge of 'Scots' is sufficient to claim that I can speak it. There can't be too many languages where a question such as 'fit fit fits fit?' can make sense <laugh>

    Saw the Crusaders (I wish they had a different name) score on BBC. I don't pay Sky for the extra channels to allow me to watch the games on TV. When the rugby world cup is in NZ the free to air channel that has got the rights to televising the games is Maori TV. I don't know if the commentary will only be in Maori but that would suit Murdock.

    I can see the AMI stadium from where I live, though I am too far away to see what is happening. At night, when the city lights shine, the area near the stadium and the central city remains black. They still haven't got power, though it is improving daily. The city centre is slowly being opened up but there are a couple of tall buildings which will have to come down so it is unlikely that we will be able to go everywhere for some weeks yet. They can't just blow the buildings up because they don't know which way they will fall. They have to strengthen them first then blow them up.

    The last game I saw at AMI was between Wellington Phoenix and Adelaide in the Australian league. Both Darren Bazely and Richard Johnson finished their careers with the Phoenix.

    Leonardo, i'm a driving instructor...i don't work Saturday's coz of the footie, so it has to be Sundays, since weekends are always going to be busy and it'd be a shame to miss the money...though i'd like to give them up eventually, it's no fun, especially in the summer when everyone is out and bbq'ing lol
