For info of anyone who knows me, or anyone that fancies a couple of beers before the match on Sunday, I am having a little pre-match celebration. I'll let you know exactly what it is at about 1.45pm. I may even get my hand in my pocket.

Ill be there John.

Damn - I always miss the free beer!

Other than when your trying to get one out of me.

And never succeed tight !

I normally in lion at time with father in-law.

Have the NHS finally agreed to fund your gender reassignment surgery?

No breast reduction for men

I'll be there

Ill be in and you can buy me that drink you owe me

I'll be there John - we can get to know each other a bit better before we spend a weekend together in Edinburgh



Best of luck in your last few days by the way

Mr F

Apologies to all for not having been back on for a few days, the bloody computer broke down. The celebration, which Mr F has guessed, is that I retire this weekend after 30 years in Cleveland Police. What that really means is more trips over the ennines to watch the Wire a bit more often. See you all on Sunda

All the best in your retirement.

JC I thought the celebration was you because you were buying a round.
