Pinch, punch, first day of the month and No Returns! I shall be looking all day for Pat's April 1st WU post (I've already seen TUI one). Sussex(E) dawns overcast, yet again. But the forecast says that there may be some sun later. I'm taking things easier as my recuperation is dragging - soup, yoghurt, scrambled eggs and painkillers are the only things still on the menu. I've cancelled my trip to SMS tomorrow and may even have to postpone a golf lesson that I'd already put back to next Monday. I hope your recovery goes better, Yates. I too will give up on TUI - what with Dumb & Dumber's oh-so-funny (not) & juvenile dialogues and a few party political broadcasts it's lost most, if not all, of its charm. I seem to recall the last time a select group of people were blamed for the financial ills of the world and what eventually transpired - it was 1920s/30s Germany. Intolerance and winding up the masses to a blind fury is not a healthy path to follow. Anyhoo - otherwise things look pretty much as normal. A few trips arranged for later in the year (including Europe's leading & best Bluegrass Festival in August - at least the Organising Chairman tells me so ). The golf clubs admin. is as on-the-ball as ever - yesterday I received an email saying how would I like to pay for this years (starting today) fees - which had been paid last week - immediately followed by another apologising that yes, they had cocked up - whoops! PGs, painkillers n'porridge; Blues Bros; nil Have a very good day, y'all

Good morning japesters Junior Rags seems to have put quite a lot of thought and planning into his schedule of pranks today. Good lad. I'm waiting in for my new car to be delivered, which I hope isn't some kind of April 1st joke (I'll find out when I see what comes) Starting to get quite excited about the game tomorrow, unusually excited for a game against the Dongs. It's getting to that point in the season I suppose. Hope all is going well for you and your Dad Channers if you are watching Planning for the winter holiday starts in earnest this weekend with India being top of the poll so far, although I still haven't ruled out Laos/Vietnam. Have a good day everybody

Good morning. Dull and wet. Looking forward to seeing you Baz in the summer. You can see the full programme here. Have decided to make the Charlton game and not yet decided where to sit. Usually go in the Chapel or Itchen (near Vasco, with whom I am having lunch today). I may try the Kingsland to get another perspective and whence I can out-stare Nicola!!

Ah, tea.
My wife got a new car yesterday; it's small but looks very nice, no road tax to pay either. I was allowed a brief sit in it and that was it, I was banished.
Drove in listening to Los Crudos, who sing in Spanish, great songs but it's hard to sing along when you can't speak the language. Got to work and started to listen to NN, a band that has the same singer as Los Crudos, and they sing in Spanish. Bugger.
Still, I have tea.
I hate April Fools day.

Morning Beautifuls
Saw Ed Byrne at the Guildhall last night and more importantly a poster for Milton Jones - So I've booked that this morning. Good night although Mrs B wasn't well so I'm not sure she enjoyed it
Music - 6 Music as usual now

Woo-hoo. There I was about to post a morning thread here and someone else came in with a new pack of teabags and said "Shall we?" Back in a mo... That's proper kinky, that is! Morning all, grey and slightly hungover here; had a nice meal at the Argentinian last night with MrsJ, but feel a bit beefed out as a result; in fact I've got a bit of a Gary on. So Rags, wot yer getting? Can't be going to the Dons game, much as I'd like to; but we've been away the last 3 weekends, and I'm going to the next 2 w/e games, so can't wangle that one...in fact MrsJ put her foot down when I suggested that I should really go see my mum for Mothers' day, so any suggestion of jaunting out for my own purposes is clearly not welcome... no doubt fun gardening-type activites beckon. *prays for rain* Hope ChannersSnr, Baz and Yates'face recuperate shortly. marmitey toast, thick coffee, Dub Pistols

Morning Beauties
After today I have 11 more days in the office, at least two of which will involved long lunches and/or piss-ups.
Off on hols early tomorrow. Back next Saturday night bywhen I expect Saints to have garnered 9 more points - was worried about the trip to Orient but they have blown up spectacularly in the past few weeks and no longer look capable of joining the play-off race. Three wins looks now possible so, as the god Nike once said "Just Do it!"
Plenty of work to complete today so please excuse my lack of participation in later threads. I can at least say what is in my lunchtime sarnis - cheese and picalilli.
O&U SFC.

Morning all. Is a bit gloomy and spitty but at least it's Friday. By the way, I am coming to the match tomorow so the result may not be good.

Good morning all No, no April fool post on here...would I Rain overnight, but sunshine this afternoon. Leaving for Southampton at 4 pm this afternoon, let's hope the M25 is clear around 6 0'clock Looking forward to seeing the Saints, pity they are playing Milton Keynes. I have a soft spot for Wimbledon. They were the first team I played against for Wycombe back in the old Isthmian League days and over the next 5 years we had some right battles against them. Milton Keynes were then a little village team playing in the local league. It still rankles me the way they were allowed to 'steal' their league status, whilst others grafted for years to get theirs. Anyhow... may see some of you tomorrow!

Morning my lovelies.
Tone, you are a tea slut.
I am supposed to be off out on a works jolly, but Mrs Etts work have underpaid her, so money for the month is now tight. I have £30 to last me all afternoon and night. I think I'll be home for tea then!
Hoovering, washing, gym then drink. It's not all bad.
