I got ratted a few times in Benny from Crossroads' pub in Brummagem.
Met Sir Garfield Sobers (I've a photo of us somewhere) in Sydney - he surprised me by recalling playing at Cleethorpes a few times
Saw Emile (what do you want to make those eye at me for?) Ford in the back lounge of The Greystoke [pub] in North Ealing; still smiling and enjoying his music after all those years and despite playing to about 15 of us!


There's a crooked street in Grimsby Town
It's a well worn path I've travelled down
Now there's ruin in my name, I wish i'd never got off the train
And I wish I'd listened to the words you said....
...Don't go down to Freeman Street
Don't go down to Freeman Street
You'll be lost and never found
You can never turn around
Don't go down to Freeman Street

When I was a teenager, a few of us had a boat on the broads,

Moored up at Yarmouth next to us were, Roy St Clair and his brother Tony,

They were british champion wrestlers,

AND   AND !!!!!!!!!!

They had a NAKED woman on their boat.

When I came up for the match against Burnley a few years ago,

Steve Gritt sat next to me, he was scouting for Millwall ( who we played the following week )

We had a really good chat about footy in general and he was surprised that I had recogised him.

He was very impressed with Boulding who scored 2 that day in a 3-0 win.



BUT

IT AIN'T FECKING 10 YEARS AGO NOW , IS IT. ?
