Train from Grantham with No.3 son, but No.1 son will be hoping to watch the game in a bar somewhere unpronounceable in Laos (apologies for his terrible lack of commitment/funds for airfare and not being able to be there - he has been reprimanded)

royal_cornwall I'm coming from Wadebridge :)

I was down that way recently - went to Bedruthan Steps. Nice place.

Weather was rubbish though, absolutely chucked it down all weekend. "Welcome to Cornwall" my hosts joked.

Red If we're going to take the thread off at a tangent to guess where Bandini leaves then I wouldn't say Wormwood Scrubs. (Does anyone actually live there anyway apart from those serving a jail term?)

I'd hazard a guess at Finchley.


I can just check facebook if you want?


I'm coming from Ilkley on Sunday, so that's quite far.

I don't really need to know, it was really just a comment that of all places in a 4.8 mile radius or whatever, I wasn't sure how the OP had decided it was "Probably wormword scrubs"


well I just picked the most unlikely place 4.8 miles from Wembley! Wish I hadn't mentioned it now!

Reading FC - Official Facebook Chris Tarrant is down at Madejski Stadium today and had to get involved in the 'Backing the boys' campaign! Rumour has it that Chris flies out to South Africa this weekend but will be rushing back just for the game and will be jetting off again soon after!

I've let the side down and been a real plastic by not making the effort because I would have missed my flight on Tuesday, but you can add two anonymous Non Nobbers from Dubai, UAE ....
