    RIP Larry Lloyd

    A solid centre back who knew his place. Win the header, or make a tackle and give it to someone else. Don't try anything fancy.

    Songs with other songs in the lyrics

    Have you done your pools coupon yet?

    I never understood the Pools. Something my Dad would curse over on a Saturday teatime because there weren't 8 score draws?

    The weekend beer and musis thread...

    Gutted that I couldn't get tickets to see Public Service Broadcasting play at Durham Cathedral later this year. They're playing the album "In Every Valley" in its entirety 40 years after the miner's strike. Drinking Henry Westons and playing one of the lighter tracks:

    Teesside Airport Scoops Award
