Try the Duke of Gloucester on Yonge Street...I went there some years ago to watch a game, was very Brit friendly and open in the morning so people could have breakfast a pint and get their footy fix from back home.

Umm, not so sure about that...my limited understanding of the laws of physics and rudimentary maths suggests otherwise. The speed of sound is roughly 330m/sec So, twice that is 660m/sec Multiply that by 3600 to give the distance travelled in an hour. Which would give a speed of roughly 2376kph...

They had a couple of Coventry fans on BBC News this morning, maybe they were the same individuals interviewed on the radio, banging on about how they were defending the reputation of their club...so nobody could take liberties with them...muppets!

So, it wouldn't affect you if you ended up in hospital due to being punched, stabbed or hit with a bottle...just because of the football team you follow. I suspect that you weren't following the club from the late 70's to mid 80's, when we did have a sizeable hooligan element, who enjoyed...

GK - John Keeley DF - Steve Foster MF - Charlie Oatway MF - Danny Wilson FW - Gary Hart Five-a-side isn't really about skill, it is generally about getting stuck in and hustling the opposition, most of the decent teams I ever played against had shorter players who were quick and...

At the moment it is a toss up between Man Utd and Chelsea...the former for their fans who are largely tossers and the latter for the way they are behaving since becoming the nouvea-riche of English football...once Abramovich pokes off they will go back to being a West London insignificance whose...

OK, so if the club don't use RHRN as a warm up for the big event (GOSBTS)...on the basis that every other tin-pot club in the country seems to use it...what would people suggest?

RHRN as the teams prepare in the tunnel, possibly get Norm to do a Falmer re-mix...this would also serve as a rallying call to people enjoying their lunch, coming through the turn-stiles or having a nervous pre-match pee and help ramp up the atmosphere...but it should be GOSBTS as soon as any of...

I have always thought this was a bit of a misnomer, what is an average and how has it been calculated, it always seems a bit like a figure plucked from the air. Is consideration given to parts of the north where you can buy a street for about £3.50 and places like Sandbanks on Poole Harbour...

How about some offerings from the Beatles: Help Sgt Pepper's lonely hearts club band Please please me All you need is love This is similar to the Chinese lucky cookie game, where you add "in bed" at the end of the words of wisdom!

Why not just buy two singles...remember prices being pretty reasonable whenever you travelled. I lived in the south and, although I moved back to the UK in 2003, it was something like £15 for a return to Amsterdam. Word of advice, if you are going to Enschede, don't take any fireworks with...

...so, you are maintaing your right to remain silent!

This is a good thread, we should have more like it...if you are under 40, please move along, this is not for you!

1. Rugby 2. European football, think it might be called the Champions league, but most of them aren't. 3. Alcohol, including drunks and stories of things done whilst wasted...I ain't interested, move on. 4. Y-list celebrities...get a proper job, rather than hanging on to a misconcieved idea that...

I used ns.nl when I lived in the Netherlands...if you need a taxi at the end of your train journey then book a treintaxi when you buy your ticket...it is far cheaper than a normal taxi. If there are several people travelling then try and buy a meermanskaart...which works out cheaper, if they...

Yeah, think you are right.

I bought my first system in the mid 80's, had an AR Legend deck...it is still in the attic, reckon it just needs a new belt and it would be working again...the rest of my system was Denon, which was OK. Upgraded most of that after about 5/6 years to a Cyrus 2 amp and PSX, with a Marantz CD...

I bought an i-touch earlier this year and am still using the headphones from my old i-pod, without the extra piece of cord containing the volume switch...the wire isn't quite long enough so I want to buy some new headphones. I don't really want anything too big and hate the little bud in ear...

Maybe, but we could go with different options to see how serious people were about their hi-fi, covering everything from boogie-box up to a top-end separates system. Mine is now a little dated but still does the job admirably, being a Cyrus 7 amp, power supply and CD player with bi-wired...

I will not buy the Daily Mirror, nor would I use it if I ran out of Andrex...after they printed faked pictures of Iraqi's being abused by British Servicemen during the time Piers Morgan was editor. That fabricated story placed the lives of our Servicemen at considerable risk, greater than they...
