Sorry about that chaps! Disappearing up my own arse with self-importance I feel!! However, the good Count & Countess were kind enough to extend me their fine hospitality and rave about it I shall!!! Let's face it, the sleeping arrangements were the back of the 806 until the Thursday before testing. The place is gorgeous and a perfect place to impress any of our "better" halves, or whichever wench we are trying to impress. Real history here. Please, no more mention of "Lord", just plain "Sir" will do in future!!  |

And it was so posh, I had to behave myself. The MBWS staying firmly within the hand luggage.  |

Is he related to Lord Charles ( or am I showing my age ?)

Definitely! That's right on the fringe of the old memory banks and I'm fast approaching 40!  |

It would have been rude to decline their kind offer!
As for Lord Charles, I remember him too, but I never found him that funny. The big 4-0h is fast approaching for me too. Frightening particularly as I still have a mental age of 15.

Lord Rick!!!!
I'll have you chaps know that I'm having my people do a trawl of Debretts to find out who this bounder and cad is!!
Sir Rick of Maisonblanchire a.k.a. The Rickmeister is undoubtedly the knowledgeship and faxmaster of the LM groovethang, but a Lord!, good grief, you only have to see his Saturday morning ablutions once in your life to be permanently mentally scarred.

Lord Steve, you just couldn't let it lie could you? Can't a man wash in public anymore???!!! Be sure to be at the head of the queue as the Sat a.m. hose down is getting more popular every year and is sure to be outlawed soon. Actually, the Monday lunchtime version is worse as there are so few people around it gets more graphic! Maybe that's really why the gippos come back every year ... |

Not one for witty repartee etc. I shall respond in the only manner I know.......
Although in fairness, given the recent form etc. you have good grounds for your reasoned analysis and fair play to you for I feel those good fellows at Mr. William Hill's emporium in town agree with you.
But I will still wear the colours with pride (and desperate hope!) on Sunday.
Whether "Shep celebrating" is still my chosen image on Monday, only time will tell!!

May it please his Lordship to note that Messrs Ladbrooks also reckon Bath are going to get a right old kicking. Shep will be crying into his beer.
But I hope it's a good match, you never know. Have a top day out!

Cheers Andy! I'm driving to the match so any crying into my own beer will have to be done on my return to the Flatlands on Sunday night. Nice to be the underdogs these days in a strange sort of way .. it was always boring (NOT!) when we won everything!! I remember the days etc........... |
