Fan for 35 years, through all their various names

That's impressive, and to think some people can't even walk down the road to their club!

Off to Greenwich for barrier training part 2. Managed to get an ultimate "fast" train. Well fast for here, only 3 stops between home & London Bridge. 08.07 from St Leonard's Warrior Square.

Usually can be up to 14 stops on the next one.

I've just put the bins out.  Our usual bin day is Thursday but it's always shifted by a day for bank holiday weeks.  One of our neighbours was out when I put the bin out and he said "how do you always remember that it's a day later?"  He was genuinely confused as to how I knew not to put my bin out on Thursday.  Ah well.

Advert that keeps getting repeated on LBC radio:

"You WANT a Maserati but NEED a SUV, why not have both?"

No...

I've just done an hour of my Rosetta Stone Italian course, I seem to get better marks when I do the stereotypical Italian hand gestures when talking in Italian...  A bad habit to get into...

I was in Rome in 2001. Once I started speaking in a comedy Italian accent, they treated me as fluent.
