Hi Jackie,
the moderators removed that posting pretty quickly. That's why you didn't see it.
I am not going to let it get to me, I have made lots of good friends in here, and I am not going to give that up.
TV pictures showed that Celtic's equaliser was not offside, and should have counted. That coupled with Hartson's penalty miss, did cost Celtic the game.
But then! It's a funny old game, innit?

Hi Jackie,
thanks for your message.
Yeah, it was Jimmy Greaves who said that. On the Saint and Greavsey programme. I used to really like that.
The posting in question was highly offensive, ask Trish! She saw it!
I like Welsh people, but Koala is a disgrace to her country.

Talk again soon,

Hi Jackie,
for taking so long to reply. I came in h2g2 last night and every click brought blue error codes. Just like LD eh? lol
That was a great win for Celtic on Thurs. night. I'm sure it surprised the majority of football fans.
Now they have a great chance of making the final. After Liverpool they need fear no one.
I hope you've had a nice day, and if your working tonight I hope it go's well.

Hi Dave,
well celtic never surprised me
they have every chance of winning it,
hotel has gone quiet,apart from the odd function,i'm not sure whats on next at the NEC,could be the spring fair,what job do you do dave?
hope you have a good weekend


jackie

Hi Jackie,
thanks for your message.
I expect the hotel was busy with the athletics being in Birmingham.
Scotland did well today, they managed to keep England's score down to 40. lol
I work in a pre-cast concrete place, making everything from little sills and coping to huge stair flights and landings. I've been there 22 years, and I still haven't grown to like it yet! It's a job though, and it isn't to far away.
It is in Carnoustie, only about 4 miles from where I live.
I'm going out with my pal for a few drinks tonight, nothing drastic, just a quiet drink.
I hope you have a good evening, and I'll see you again soon.

Hi dave,
well done to scotland
i see villa drew against southampton
better than a loss i suppose,

the athletics was at the NIA,its a much bigger stadium,than the NEC,i have heard there building more halls though.
SO you make stair flights,no chance of a 'raise' then ,well i think everyone gets bored with there jobs,especially after 22 years,the only thing i dislike about mine is the hours,there very unsociable,you cant go out until the weekend,not that ive got anything planned this weekend,but even so,i only get 2 days
i hope you have a good evening,
speak soon dave


jackie

Good morning Jackie,
thanks for your message.
I hope you had a nice relaxing evening, after your week of work. I didn't realise you worked every night during the week. That must get you down at times. I know it would me.
I went out for a quiet drink last night with my pal.
I hope you have a nice day and that you and your family are all well.
It's a nice sunny morning here and I hope it is in the midlands too.
I'm just having a quiet day at home, then ice hockey tonight.

hi dave,
yes it does get me down sometimes,at least i'm saving money in some way
well its been sunny bit nippy though,
i haven't done a lot today,i cooked myself a meal,which is rare for me,yorkshire pud's the lot
hope your team win at the hockey
catch you later dave

jackie

Hi Jackie,
lot's of problems with email here, it is so frustrating.
I hope you and yours are well, and that your craving is disappearing.
The hockey was not so good Dundee got beat in sudden death overtime, but they have protested against a breach of rules. A Cardiff player was thrown out of the game, but allowed to play in the overtime. He scored the winning goal. Whether the protest will be
upheld or not, I have no idea.
Well I guess you'll be at work tonight and I hope your shift goes well

Hi dave,
i had some minor problems deleting mine,but it seems now.
were all fit & well,hows you & moira?
my cravings are still just as bad,ive had the odd one or two,when ive been stressed
how many points did you lose by?
thats well out of order,it wouldn't be allowed in football,come to think of it i dont know any sport that would allow it,i bet you was really peed off,i know i would be
had a big funeral function on tonight,
nearly everyone was drunk,i couldn't understand some of them,they were spilling there drinks dropping there ash the job has its downsides sometimes,but not always
speak soon dave


jackie

Hi Jackie,
I haven't had time to get in here much the past few days.
The semi final was lost by that goal that was scored by someone who should never have been on the ice.
The appeal against the hockey match was thrown out. The excuse was that both Cardiff and Coventry had set dates for the final and there was no time to replay the semi final seond leg.
It seems mighty strange to me.
I just hope that justice is done and that Coventry win the final.
I can't understand that at a funeral, it takes away a lot of dignity from a very solemn occasion.
Moira and I are fine, and I hope your craving is no worse.

Talk again soon,

Hi Dave,
well at least scotland beat iceland at the football

i hope coventry beat them as well,its only up the road from me,

i have a confession to make i smoked a few ciggies last night i was having a glass of worst thing i could have done.
i haven't had one today though,
but i might be tempted tomorrow,cos my kids will take me out,as its mothering sunday,so it will be difficult.
speak soon

Hi Jackie,
thanks for your message.
So, you fell by the wayside eh? Never mind, it's just a slight lapse, I'm sure you are back on your target. I know I couldn't do it. I have failed to give them up many times!
Well, Coventry did win, both legs, So now they are playoff champions as well as the league champions. Dundee won everything last season, this season? nowt! lol
I hope you are all well and that work passes quickly for you tonight.
Talk again soon,

Hi Dave,

speak soon

jackie

well i have to comment on the england v turkey game,while its still fresh in my mind
david poodle head james excellent save..
vassell against alpay i wonder how they felt (2 aston villa players) beckham brilliant penalty,but where's he going? milan i think..luved his blowin a though .
rooney a great player for his age,he's got potential..
turks played dirty,i think the ref was biased a bit or blind,he overlooked a hand ball


jackie

Hi Jackie,
sorry for taking so long to get back to you. I haven't been in here much lately.
I didn't see the England game, I had the misfortune to watch Scotland. lol. It was the same old story, no ideas, too slow and no ability to score goals. It has been like that for years now.
I'm glad we don't have the annual game with England any more, it could prove to be embarresing! For us Scots I mean.
I hope your next 2 weeks are not too stressful and good luck with the cigs. You have my deepest sympathy on that, it certainly isn't easy.
I am on a weeks holiday now and I intend to make the most of it!

Talk again soon,
