    Cavendish is in baslow but the Devonshire arms at beeley is pretty good too.

    Worked in wanchai for many years, had to leave to give my liver a rest! Played football for boca seniors and a brief spell for peng chau fishermen in div 7. Made my debut in a friendly with Neil Webb who for a brief mad spell lived in the flat upstairs from me! happy days

    Did you ever play against a team called Dynamo ASA? I helped set it up in 83, not sure what league they played in later. Still 'tour' very occasionally, but we are all geriatric now. You may have come across a bloke called John Mckinley, great mate of mine and a good player too, played for a variety of different teams.....

    You know how earlier in the thread they were all chatting about being born in Perivale Maternity Hospital.....does Honeypot Lane mean anything to you Col?

    Born in Windsor, Canada, now live in London, Canada. Sorry abou the place names - I personally blame pioneering expats.

    I am a mechanical engineer in the boiler and pressure vessel industry working in Toronto for the provincial regulator

    Been QPR since 1980 because then-girlfriend's brother was Fulham (that lot were Ealing 30 min walk from Ealing Broadway) and her step-dad was a lapsed Gooner. Still hear from her a few times a year but know nothing about the brother's whereabouts

    Married for 23 years with two (step)children and 2 grandchildren. Daughter lives in Vancouver, son moves around a bit in Canadian army

    I also am a supporter (third place - qpr so far ouot in front there is no second place) of Toronto FC in MLS and dare I say the Toronto Maple Leaf ice hockey team who also wear blue and white and last won the cup in 1967. Sound familiar?

    First QPR match was a boxing day classic against WHU which the Rangers won 3-0 (1981 maybe?). Last was 1-1 draw against Posh
