    I finish a cycle training session at 4.30pm so I'll have to be on my
    guard for even more motor vehicle drivers than usual overtaking the
    children recklessly in the hope of getting home or to the pub before
    kick off. :-(

    It fucking sucked. I took my boy out for a drive round just before kick off
    to get him to sleep (he's two, and tired...), and the roads were filled with
    fucking idiots. I got cut up three times at roundabouts, some fucking cock
    in a Micra didn't understand which side of the road they should be on
    resulting in a near-miss head on, and a Corsa which made up their own
    priority rule when overtaking a parked car; it was on their side of the road
    and I was almost level with it when they moved across to my side to overtake
    it...

    It's normal to encounter maybe one instance of rubishness per local
    trip/drive to work but this was all in 10 minutes.

    Perhaps you could try singing to him next time. It's certainly a
    safer and cheaper method to use.

    Radio Forth are supporting Trinidad and Tobago since one of their
    forwards is Jason Scotland (and probably as he plays here as well).

    My goodness, someone who actually feels the same way that I do! I've always
    loathed football and everything to do with it! I watched about ten minutes
    of today's match in a final attempt to try and determine just *what* so many
    people can find so fascinating. I failed - after ten minutes of total
    boredom watching a ball being kicked up the field and down the field I just
    gave up. What a complete and utter waste of time and energy!

    lololol.......a 1-0 "own goal" win is indeed a great achieviement for
    Engurlund (ie: euro scum )...i cant wait for the excuses to
    follow...errr....we were cheated, we did actually win the game apart from
    losing more goals, 1966 was prolly not as good as this lot....but we shood
    win it again in the next 30 years ...blah...blah...blah

    In Uno-Hoo! said:
    I think I've worked out what the attraction is.

    It's a "no-brainer", literally. Your team score you shout "Hooray", if the
    other team score you shout "Boo".

    Easy, innit?

    Me neither but then I suspect some of them can't understand people who
    want to cycle or caravan or motorcycle or drive for recreation either.

    Not too long after that win I was on a ship that visited Hamburg, and
    while ashore some of the crew were sufficiently ill-advised and
    enamoured of football to set up a chant of "Two world wars and one
    world cup - YES!"

    Strange to say, we left with an incomplete crew, and one of the
    missing was later found floating in the Elbe.

  15. JohnB, where abouts nr Fareham? At kickoff, I was midway between
    Titchfield and Warsash (between home and sis-in-law's) in convoy with
    Mrs NR and two sprogs. We were experimenting with Sustrans Route 2
    which, allegedly, runs within spitting distance of our house.

    Easy, how many icebergs have been eroded through dragging that
    aerodynamic brick behind your car so you can sit in a field ;-)

  17. I can sort of understand the appeal. I have a cruising boat and
    occasionnally find myself sitting in a marina or at anchorage on a
    summer's evening and having to remind myself that, really, the
    non-sailing part is just caravanning without the social stigma.

    I spent most of my childhood holidays in a caravan which is why I now
    prefer my holiday accommodation to have foundations not corner jacks ;-)

    But you probably wouldn't enjoy my hobbies.

    Hahaha. I'd never heard that one before.

    I've noticed how the funniest cracks come from the ones who don't
    normally frequent ukrm so my conclusion is that you use modes of
    transport that give you plenty of time to dream up original jokes.

    Once you've been forced to follow one of the useless piece of shit tin
    tents being towed along a country road you'll understand.

    The sooner the government legislates you cunts off the roads the
    better and putting a charge on you for every mile you hold up traffic
    would be a good place to start.
