How quiet was the M6 yesterday? Not one hold up there and back
Parked near the ground, and asked two security chaps if there was any where safe for a drink.
We ended up in the New Navigation. I would hate to have seen the old one. I really thought it was a derelict building, until I saw someone actually drinking inside.
All the pubs in Smethick appear to be run by Sikhs. The landord of the New Navigation was called Suhkdeep Singh.
After ordering two pints in abroad Chorley accent, a young lad, son of Mr Singh then asked me if I wanted to buy a raffle ticket, first prize an Albion rain jacket.After declining, he asked again and suggested I may want to rethink this if I wanted to leave with my legs intact!
Anyway, number 41 won, so no problem.
Paul, the PA man-surely he was a kids entertainer during the week, "Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, lets have a big hand for BaggieBird there."
Anyone who hasn't been to The Hawthorns, the side that the camera is one is smaller than the Riverside. Makes the ground look big on telly. Now theres a thought...
Thought about going for a pint in Handsworth after the match, but settled for listening to Steel Pulse in the car back to Chorley.
