I'm sat in the Robins Nest watching one of the boys from Strike. Yum.

I hope Anakin is taking photos.

Which one? I went to the one in North Wales a long time ago, the entertainment is incredibly cheesy and food/drink expensive, think of it as like going to the KC as an away fan. Can't fault the accommodation and if your lucky Chico might be there. We, like most, got our shopping done online and delivered when we got there rather than paying their prices.

I don't know, but if you are anticipating it being so bad, why are you going?

So you're going to be at Butlins listening to a yet to be determined number of psychopath soccer dads who are living out their frustrated sporting dreams vicariously through their sons, as they shout such tactically astute advice as 'get rid of it' and 'keep going'? You'll have a lovely time, I'm sure.

Thats about the size of it. A personal favourite is the cry of "good battling". Usually shouted about 100 times during a game but if a right footed 9 year old picks a pass with his left foot it doesnt get a mention. Thats why we are rubbish at football in this country.

Yes.
I am still waiting for a pot of tea from 1993.
