You misunderstand. I meant it as a challenge, like here and now.
That's not a leopard!

Adrian Mole was born 2nd April 1967 in Leicester, that would make him 46 years old.

And no doubt he was very happy Tuesday night! :(

as wrote:Drink in the Man and Scythe in town, avoid anything other than Thatchers cloudy cider and try and sup about 6 pints before you leave.

Repeat the process again in Blue Boar, again order Thatchers (not the old dead hag, btw) and attempt at least 6 pints.

Order a taxi to the Reebok sometime after 2.30pm (the roads are clearer then) and there will be thousands of tickets going spare, sit in the ESL underneath the scoreboard to appreciate our fine young scrotes in full voice.

After the match sink at least 6 pints in either Scotts or Harvesters before getting a taxi back to Bolton.

In Bolton go to The Griffin, the Balmoral and McAuley's to see the delightfully cosmopolitain lads & lasses who frequent those fine establishments.

Enjoy - but don't forget to down at least 12 pints before the match starts - as the place is in the middle of nowhere and is a soulless & depressing concrete bowl.
This is fantastic advice. I like the sound of Scotts. Can you buy whiskey in there?

I really can't wait for tomorrow. My first proper drunken english football match. I saw a guy punching a horse after a game last weekend? Does that usually happen after games? My horse punching skills are a bit rusty.


What happens if the Bolton Wanderereres win? Do we get to hug the horses?

Also, regarding the debate I have inadvertently started re Americans travelling the globe, let me say this:

It's true that many of us Yanks don't understand there is a world outside the USA. We just think the rest of the world is a big desert full of countries like Afghanistan, Iraq and Ireland.

But I am lucky enough to have visited a lot of countries, not 50 like the guy here who was born in 1994, but I would say at least 10 (if you count Canada and Mexico as countries, which I don't).

I have been to Wales and Scotland too, but are they part of England or what? What about the UK, what's that? And GB? What's the deal with that? Also, I like the look of the Jessica Ennis chick from the Olympic games. But does she play for GB or UK or just England?

Sorry for all these questions. I want to blend in with the crowd tomorrow and would hate to make an embarrassing faux pas.

I'm 25 and been to 43 countries, winner?

I've counted the UK 'countries' as one though and seeing as Alaska is in the USA I think this beats Dan's,

is there a prize??

Many on that list are not countries. Others like Aruba, Curacao, and the Dutch Antilles are duplicates. #epicfail

Geography does not involve countries at all nowadays, instead at school I have spent most of my time learning about rivers and rocks. :zzz: .I wish we could of done proper geography based on countries. What are you implying here though.

Have you got a drink problem? Just one more question, why the interest in Bolton?

No drinking problem at all, I love it....why would there be a problem?

I am interested in Bolton because I found out there is a match on this weekend and you guys are hoping to get into the Premier League. I have nothing else to do this weekend, that's why I started this thread.
