    Think BA would be a good sponsorship. <ok>

    I hear Chick King have upped the price of their wings meal deal so there could be truth in the rumours

    Hardly think the aviation industry has the money that Levy wants

    Fully agreed! Still, it would have been nice!

    Overpriced and with cabin crew who make Air France's look sociable? Probably not the best look...

    But we would get to feature on BA in-flight magazine. A global audience with the national carrier. Win win.

    However, as alluded to previously, there's currently little money in aviation.

    Apparently there's not enough money for Richard Branson to pay his staff, but still enough money for Richard Branson to go into space

    Hmm...

    That project has been developing for years and paid over the course of the years. But isn't Branson having to sell £500m of shares too?

    There's been some conjecture as to where Populous and Levy got the design for the exterior of the stadium and illuminating it at night...

    ...it turns out that they nicked it from the MSpa Starry Hot Tub...

    Good news for us, looks like the big events are coming back to the Stadium. Hopefully revenue and a bit of impetuous on the naming rights

    And I was right! <laugh> I've never really got boxing in stadiums, to be honest. You can't see what's happening, surely?

    I suppose you can if you pay £2000. £40 not so much

    It ticks the 'I was there box', which seems to carry weight with some people.

    I remember seeing a Romesh Ranganathan and Rob Beckett show (for about the 2 minutes I could bear it) and they had cheap seats for the fight v Klitschko and the view was miniscule, they were so far back and you had to follow it on the screens. Not paying £40 or more to watch it on closed circuit TVs.

    I've seen a couple of bands at the Dome , sat high up at the rear and realised that I was watching the screens rather than the actual band , swore then never to go to the mega dome gigs again

    Years ago, I got given some tickets for Eagles at the Dome. I couldn't see the stage we were so far away, let alone who was on it.

    Also, NEVER drive to these places. The parking for them is ridiculously expensive and after seeing Prince there, we got stuck in the next door Underground station car park for nearly 2 hours.

    Basically, go to The 100 Club. The beer's great and cheap and the place only holds 350 people.
