Imagine what will happen to this thread after tomorrow when we have 92 days until our next match rather than 8
So much for thread discipline! I might actually have to logging on and apply a few rules around here. And anyway, my dislike of puns is well known on here. Should I start issuing thread bans? I’ll mullet over.
Only if you drank 75 pints on a night out! I used to go out into my 20s with a fiver and drink myself senseless. By then it was 40p a pint for bitter, 44p for lager. Vin
I took the same party tin to about 12-15 parties at Uni. Used it to get through the door, then I'd sit on it all evening and take it home. When I started work it astounded me that people actually brought drink to parties. Vin
1975, 14 years old in the Gratham Arms, Eastleigh, was tall for my age, 14 pence for a pint of brown ale. Hated it, but had no idea of what l was ordering other than l thought it might make me seem older than l was! Edit: Dubai, 2019, 59 years old, £10.00 for a pint of Stella. ****! How times have changed!
The first drink I bought in a pub was in the Royal Oak in Charlton, just outside Andover. The year was 1969, I was 15, and the beer (Strongs Bitter IIRC) was 1s/5d for a whole pint. That’s 7p in today’s currency, but my pocket money was only half-a-crown a week. Later when I got a Saturday job my income went up to 30s, and beer reached the dizzying heights of 1/10 due to Mr Heath taxing the poor.
Hmm, underage drinking and pitch invading hooliganism Chilcs...anything else from your misguided youth that we need to know?...
Yeah, strange end to the season in a way. Somewhat similar to last year but definitely different. Last game, last year I was so up for beating or at least getting a draw from MCity - this year I’m again really “interested” in MCity & praying they win. As for Saints; Ralph please finish on a high today & then the real challenge begins; getting rid of deadwood & reinvesting better than of late.
