Anything goes in The Snug, General Discussion's rebellious little brother. An off-topic den of iniquity where any subject not covered elsewhere may be discussed. Well, anything except golf, Star Wars and Arsenal.
Some friends adopted a little boy a couple of years ago, it's not been easy but he finally seems to be settled.
Anyway, the mum rang me, being very formal. 'Oh hello, this is Jane, Oliver's mummy. '
'OK...', I said.
'I'm very sorry to trouble you Santa, but Oliver would like to add something to his list'.
AAH!
So once we'd established that he's been very good, and he does deserve a new water pistol, he went off happy.
Mum came back on the phone, 'THANK YOU! He absolutely insisted that we ring Santa right now, and I was panicking thinking 'who can I ring whose voice he might not recognise?!'.

I suppose this could go on the irritation thread for some people, but hammerman11 posting the same post on every thread in the GD. Every. Single. Day..
Seeing the club`s advert for the cup match with Brum in the Metro, and the picture of Billy holding up the cup. Also a little bit sad that its nigh on forty years since that day.
