Well that was a very disappointing 90 minutes at Oakwell on Saturday. Maybe less said the better. At least my 600+ miles round trip was not wasted. Great meeting up with old friends once more and meeting 1 or 2 new ones. My mate John said to let you all know that it was great meeting you guys and he did say he was quite keen to do it all again sometime. We had a great Friday night out on the town, so much so that John spent most of Saturday afternoon nursing a hangover. Don't think the game helped him much. Didn't stop him doing it all again on Saturday night.
Glad you got home safely, Ian. Oh, and don't worry, I DID give that box of chocolates to Crystal & it was unopened.
Great to see you again Ian, although football-wise it was a bit of a disaster! Glad John had a good time of it too! You'll have to get him signed up on here! Hopefully not too long until we do it all again
Glad you had a good and safe journey back mate. I know just how John felt even though I backed out earlier than you lot I hadn't been in practice for quite a while Enjoyed the company as usual old and new .sorry about the display at oakwell.
Marlon, John is wanting to keep in touch so I will give him your phone number tomorrow. He was well impressed with the NUM tour and your support of socialism. Although John is a strong SNP supporter he does have very strong socialist values. Oh I hope you had a good birthday mate.
Ye give him my number Ian, will keep in touch ,he did express an interest in attending next years Durham Miners Gala with me but politely declined my invitation to the labour party confetence . Considering the reds lost a poor football match and having a massive hangover and going for a meal I was struggling to eat it wasn't a bad birthday mate..
