Should have gone to Specsavers - Bongser never misses a drop - though he sometimes has to discretely remove his dentures that his tongue might reach further down.
Since seeing your post, Col, the above-mentioned has been frantically and vainly looking for the name of a phobia that passed under his eyes about forty years ago. It was the ambiguously named "fear of glass bottoms".
This Bongser took as being the fear of seeing the bottom of a glass (the glasses from which B then drank usually bore the branding "Arcoroc") rather than Debbie Harry's fear of "Ass of Glass!" What Debbie's erstwhile costumier, Brigitte, chose to share with Bongser... (as they used to say in closing "Tales of the Riverbank") is another tale.
The point of this ramble is Col, fully agree that the glass is half full until we are told otherwise. Should it be proven empty, Bongser will replace his dental plate and order another pint. The mills may have gone. The mines may have gone. Rugby League is still in the blood of all that were born here or hereabouts.
The town and its club (in whatever form) will live on whatever happens.
Sod communication, things are delicate (some now sub judis), until there is something defo to announce, Bongser welcomes radio silence.
