PPPSSSTTT, garawa, ppppssssttttttt ,over here ,over here in the left bottom corner under the word options..........HHHHHIIIIIIII. I think probably theres only you and me on here now the seasons over, all a bit boring isn't it....( hums a song to himself ),you going to the Royal Wedding, no me neither, think my invitation got lost in the post ??
Are you going to watch the Shrewsbury / Charlton game later ,just think a couple, Ok five more wins and that could have been us. I know 5 wins seems a lot but we had so many draws, (17 highest in the Division) a win every here and there and we would have been home and dry and still playing.
Oh well not much to do today, been raining all weekend, it's Mothers Day here so of course all the brow beaten Dads are staying home today, bit wet for golf anyway, good day to sit in, drink beer and watch footie.
I have sent Peter a small box,it should be there later this week, only a few bits and pieces in it, all marked with names, if you guys would be kind enough to hand them out at the Gillingham Dinner Dance Ball to people that are there,or hang on to them if you see the people at home games I would appreciate it.
Hope we will be on here real soon celebrating some new signings, pray that win against Plymouth hasn't made Scally believe we have a team thats ready to go and push for promotion next season.
OK have a great summer, talk during the off season, see ya.

Ha ha, OK Chicago. I put the chopsticks in the motorhome so when we have a Chinese away from home it is more special and authentic (we don't use them at home). Trouble is, we haven't had a Chinese yet. I wonder what this years treats are ha ha. You really shouldn't have.

Yes I think the board will go quiet and apologies for the delay, 2 more weeks of uni and I'm freeeeeeeeeeeeeee. World Cup here I come!

Hi Motor Home Monty, quick question, it's finally stopped raining and blowing a gale so were off to play golf today,thank goodness. OK is there any site you know of that says what time games are on for the WC, I have looked but am unable to find anything. Thanks buddy.
