    Football

    I remember all right. And still detest Luton Town as a result. An interesting example of Tory hypocrisy at the time, with David Evans (con, Welwyn and Hatfield), Chairman of Luton Town, being a leading proponent of id cards, whilst John Carlisle (con, Luton) was simultaneously blethering...

    Where have you been by bus?

    North: Luss to Arrochar East: Folkestone to Hythe (or Malia to Ag Nik) South: Bournemouth to Swanage (or Crete, as above) West - see North, although Barnstaple to Croyde Bay must run it close.

    Where have you been by bus?

    Done: London, Brum, Leeds, Manchester, Stoke, Nottingham, Newcastle, Preston, Bournemouth, Huddersfield, Notlob, Stockport and Brighton. Plus, dubiosly, Poole - passing through Sandbanks enroute from Bournemouth to Swanage. And, even more dubiously, Bradford - if Oxenhope falls under that...

    Do ticket barriers accept ALR tickets?

    When I did an ALR in 2010, Shoeburyness was the only place where someone got the hump about opening the gates - twice in 15 minutes (went out for a smoke).

    Mileage Competition 2013

    Just scraped into four figures, with a trip to the Norway Open. Bonus new shack (Rainhill) as well.

    Which is worse: Sat Navs or the Misguided Busway?

    Probably using a Bonnie Tyler satnav: - keeps telling you to turn around - every now and then it falls apart - NOT recommended for use in France

    The thread drift seems to have occurred because of Harlesden's intervention, which widened the argument to include anyone under 18, who may or may not have reached puberty. To return to Ovenden, he clearly regarded young girls in an inappropriate, sexual manner, and will presumably be...

    How would you define "genitalia" here? Presumably penises, scrotums and labia would be banned, but what about pubic hair?

    In the spirit of keeping the thread alive I will have a wild guess here. Next line: "I don't know very much about the words of this refrain" Title: The Day Before You Came Artists: ABBA

    Football

    As someone who is genuinely left-leaning, I object to either of the Moribund brethren being regarded as leftist. As regards Di Canio, all the froth and wibble seems to be designed to distract from important issues (bedroom tax, tax cuts for millionaires, privatisation/destrction of NHS, etc)...
