Great news, Monty. This is like the Tour de France, stage one over and Monty on the podium for the win. I'm glad you could manage Internet access, old son, as it's nice to know you have survived the toughest leg without mishap. As a matter of interest - assuming you come back on here at some time - ...

Long trip, Monty. Factoring in your other activities along the way I reckon you'll be dog tired by the time you get back home. A quick mental calculation tells me you'll be travelling the equivalent of me driving to Perth from Sydney, returning and then heading back to the SA/WA border. It's a pity ...

No, can't do that. If players negotiate their own wages they'd all be on about two hundred quid a week. Season ticket prices would drop extraordinarily and the whole British economy would implode. We can't have that now, can we?

I wouldn't discount Geoff Ogilvy. You could say he was lucky in the US Open when Montgomerie dropped his bundle, but he's been playing well. I don't know how he travels on links though.

You lot leave Cleo alone. She has a great voice - or did, I haven't heard anything of her recent work if there is any. I have a couple of her albums in my collection (I think they are both with her husband - Dankworth). Dudley Moore was quite an accomplished pianist (or do musicians these days prefe...

Commie - 102 Mummy - 84 Bruce - 109 Ah, most enlightening, Crayons - I didn't think you'd put them up, to be honest. Sounds like you had a grand day. Well done. It's a pity I couldn't make it as I might have given Bruce a run for his money for the wooden spoon (I haven't played for thirty years or ...

I'll support that motion.

Good luck to you both. I'm sure you'll have many happy times (and the odd rough one) but the first will always outweigh the latter.

I think, Monty, that Trivia pointed the wrong way; either that or the Mackems decided to ignore her. Perhaps they'll find their way back again and learn from the experience.

Welcome Map. There is a fair number of non-Trotters here who contribute much to the site. I hope that you'll be one of them.

The head honcho of the local F.A. has had the hide to come out complaining about Australia's position in the rankings. He compounded this by stating he was going to fire off an e-mail to FIFA asking how they came up with the figures. IT'S ON THE FIFA WEB SITE MR O'NEILL, something of which you shoul...

I suppose you could include me if you have space for a barfly.

Anyway, Aussies have always signed up as soon as their monarch suggested it would be nice to have a European holiday - or even a southeast Asian one. So, to you, SOTWA (seeing as H.M. has not asked recently) I pledge my allegiance.

Most disappointing. Mind you, if they'd lost, the Italians would have been lambasting the ref for their sending off. That was just as bad a decision as was the penalty. As best as I can gather he had little to do during the game but made two monumental errors, either of which could have affected the...

Looks like I'll not be able to have a go today. The site seems to be down. If it's about American music this time around then I'm probably lucky as I would undoubtedly make a goose of myself.
