JS's American Express Community Stadium Watch No.120 (6/5/11).

[Jack Straw]

What a week.
Bin Laden "Bin and Gone".
Lib Dems hammered at local elections.
3 weeks to go before the Amex is handed over.

The surroundings of our wonderful stadium are being cleared, cleaned and tidied.
The presentation portakabins have flown the nest.
All the blue hoarding has gone, as well as the fencing along the bottom of the field on the south side of Village Way.
Some small trees look very parched.
Party time at Notts County tomorrow and open-top bus parade Sunday afternoon.
Please don't drop the cup under the bus!
3 lots of 5 coming up.

Great pics yet again, JS. It's really getting nicely tidied up now.

How's the book coming along?

 

[Napper]

I'm going to be someone who replies between pics

 

[Basil Fawlty]

Thank you JS. Just put a huge smile on my face yet again!

 

[Yoda]

Why is the car in batch one coned off?

 

[cw00]

that soil dumped behind the south stand, is that to represent the "rolling downs" more or just because they had excess soil

 

[Napper]

Want to see less dusty concrete , less soil with no trees , more shrubbery and a f***ing good jet wash on the tarmac please

How's the book coming along?

The man in charge of photos told me he spent hours and hours sorting and editting them recently, so progress is being made.

 

[Daffy Duck]

When it's published, make sure plenty of copies are printed. I think it'll sell like hotcakes!

Good luck with it and please keep us posted with the progress.

Yep Why?

Why is the car in batch one coned off?

Well it is a pikey pick up, someone may have spotted what could have been mistaken for a Palace sticker/scarf/shirt in it, so best to be safe rather than sorry.

 

[Mr Blobby]

Well not a picture of the stadium, but one of me with the Honourable Sir Jack Straw at last season players sposors meal!

 

[wigman]

All coming along very nicely indeed,but as a previous poster said it could all do with a good jet wash now.
Great update btw Graeme!

 

[Lush]

Are you a knight who says "Ni"?!

Perhaps you would like... another shrubbery!Then, when they have found the shrubbery, they must place it here, beside this shrubbery, only slightly higher so you get a two layer effect with a little path running down the middle. Then, they must cut down the mightiest tree in the forrest... with... a herring!

We want... a shrubbery!
[dramatic chord]
ARTHUR: A what?
KNIGHTS OF NI: Ni! Ni! Ni! Ni!
ARTHUR and PARTY: Ow! Oh!
ARTHUR: Please, please! No more! We will find you a shrubbery.
HEAD KNIGHT: You must return here with a shrubbery or else you will never pass through this wood alive!
ARTHUR: O Knights of Ni, you are just and fair, and we will return with a shrubbery.
HEAD KNIGHT: One that looks nice.
ARTHUR: Of course.
HEAD KNIGHT: And not too expensive.
ARTHUR: Yes.
HEAD KNIGHT: Now... go!

ARTHUR: We are looking for a shrubbery...
CRONE: Aggh! No! Never! We have no shrubberies here.
ARTHUR: If you do not tell us where we can buy a shrubbery, my friend and Iwill say... we will say... 'ni'.
CRONE: Agh! Do your worst!
ARTHUR: Very well! If you will not assist us voluntarily,... ni!
CRONE: No! Never! No shrubberies!
ARTHUR: Ni!
CRONE: [cough]
ROGER THE SHRUBBER: Are you saying 'ni' to that old woman?
ARTHUR: Erm, yes.
ROGER: Oh, what sad times are these when passing ruffians can 'ni' at will to old ladies. There is a pestilence upon this land. Nothing is sacred. Even those who arrange and design shrubberies are under considerable economic stress at this period in history.
ARTHUR: Did you say 'shrubberies'?
ROGER: Yes. Shrubberies are my trade. I am a shrubber. My name is Rogerthe Shrubber. I arrange, design, and sell shrubberies.

I take it that Roger the Shrubber is a 1901er
