Had the pleasure of having Broon from Troon as the speaker at one of the dinners I ran at Neath RFC around 20 years ago. Fantastic person, fantastic player, fantastic speaker. He was taken too soon. RIP

Cojones - Lonesome*

Morning all,

Wholesome homesickness

I must say I agree with you on the ‘whelk’ front, Nick! They don’t look nice, I don’t think they taste nice, they are hard work in the mouth, and, from what I saw on TV the other day, they really are not nice neighbours. In fact, the whelk is the thug of the aquatic mollusc world.

We need one in our midfield PH. Instead of a wheWhelk we have a Whelan

Prometheus - Promenade
 
Somerset Crome (not SP, the Aldous Huxley spelling)

I've always quite liked Whelan, at least playing a bit further up like he does under Hughes, rather than where TP played him. And he wasn't to blame for last night's debacle, which sadly sounded like it was Arnie, although quite where Berahino was is a concern
 
Jerome Tome **

** Other names for thick, ancient volumes of wisdom, usually covered in cobwebs and often containing potentially fatal magic traps are also available in the minds of the average pubescent Dungeons & Dragons role-playing gamer. Then they rediscover the important things that really matter in life. Which is what sends them back into football…

PS (again) lot of respect for Jerome K Jerome, Nick. I have read many a Victorian novel, but that one is the only one that has me laughing out loud.
 
Absolutely...the encounter between montmerency and the alley cat for instance. A classic book, as is his lesser known follow up, Three Men on a Bummer. Seriously, same 3 protagonists (nix dog) on a bicycling tour of the 'Low Countries'
The bummer in question is of course the bicycle.. stop sniggering at the back

Tome - Cromer. **
** other crabs are availabe
