Thanks for the info, Lil. I'll have a go.

All our posts are family friendly, aren't they, Mac?

Of course Jack, I was just making sure!

*giggles*

Innuendo is fine, just keep it clean boys

Of course, Lil.

And while we're at it, you've been in the pub all morning and we haven't offered you a drink.

On the house.

Innuendo is fine? That's like giving us a free pass Lil.

Jack, I have to go food shopping. Should I be buying comfort food in preparation of us messing up against Swansea or leave that until next Tuesday ahead of our Champions League humilation?

You'll need it for both, Mac.

Even more so now that two of our most important players are out for at least three months. Which, of course, means the rest of the season.

I need even more because of Ireland's inevitable trouncing in Moscow tonight. Friday's nil-nil draw got the weekend off to a very bad start.

Bad times all round.

Pretty much Jack. This will be the one time Arshavin decides to deliver.

I forgot to say, I'll be back in an hour or so.

I reckon so, Mac.

He'll be at his very best tonight and then he'll decide that he's done enough for the season and rest on his laurels.

Boyz! I've just spoken to a friend of mine, Prof Animal, and he's says you are more that welcome into the Sportsman's http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/brunel/F1926356?thread=7261970&post=110164247#p110164247 It tends to become active from about 10pm if you fancy a natter in there Now I will leave you to talk lil x

Later, Mac.

Incidentally, I have a problem. On Friday I wrote 'Wed: 11:10' on a scrap of paper and left it beside my PC to remind myself of......something.

All morning I've been trying to remember why I did that. What am I supposed to be doing at ten past eleven on Wednesday??

The remote chance that you are to go on Teabreak? As if you would forget

Or to the pub for some pre match pre drinks?

Another pub, eh?

A long standing one too.

10pm? So it's a late night bar. Hope they serve after hours.

I don't need to remind myself about that sort of stuff, PSD.

If I needed a reminder it must be work-related.

I have a horrible feeling someone's going to ring me at 11.10 tomorrow to ask me if I'm running late.

Your posts are coming through a lot quicker now.

Are they having a laugh about Keano going to Iceland? Kerry Katona won't be happy about that

I always thought that managing a supermarket is the limit of his abilities.

Of course, he'll only do it for a few months before walking off in a huff and glaring at innocent passers by while taking his dog for a run.

Lil, sounds good. I could do with a drink. You having one too?

Jack, I think the best technique for remembering something you have forgotten is to not bother trying to remember it. You rarely do doing it like that.

As for Arshavin, how do we manage to make good players play like they can't work out what football is about? Arshavin spoons shots up in to the air more than tennis players do.

I know, Mac. Wasn't he universally regarded as the best player in Euro 2008?

So how did he become a Russian dwarf version of Gus Caesar?

Also, Ireland kick off early today so I have to sort out what train I'm catching. And inevitable there's now a gale force wind coupled with sheeting rain. Earlier this morning I was looking out at blue skies.

Right. Sorted out the train. I'll be here for another twenty minutes.

Not sure why I'm bothering to be honest. I'd probably enjoy a full day's work more than the trouncing we're about to get.
