    Well done that man......

    Talking of speedway, i used to go down and watch the Sheffield Tigers when i was a snip of a lad. One of the blokes that attends to the bikes went out with a cousin of mine and invited me down one evening. I used to love the smell of the petrol etc in the pits :eek:

    I still go to Sheff,you liked the smell of methanol...speedway is a great summer sport....and only half the price of Oakwell.

    How they doing these days. When i used to go i think Belle Vue Aces were one of the top sides with Ivan Mauger one of their stars - i could well have spelt that wrong. All the internationals/ test matches were sponsored by Durex too
