Christmas Tree

You're so cool.

Aye building's not my strong point. But not bad for a couple of days with a load of scrounged bits.

Just received a text saying Venables real name, where he lives, what he's accused of in warrington etc etc asking me to pass it on. Im not going too. Scary stuff if its a wind up like. Its obviously whizzing round the country.

Just been down to mine to pick up 11 eggs and feed the rabbits. Took some more photos cos its moved on a bit in the last few weeks. Now have raised beds layed out all over, a diy polytunnel getting built, a window in the shed, a bench to sit on and that big patch of mud next to the polytunnel will be a lawn with a few fruit tress, a swing, a slide , a barby and a drinking den in the summer.

pardon my ignorance, but what the heck is an allotment? you need permission to grow veg? An allotment is an "allotment" of land alloted to the working man. The land is usually owned by the local council or the church. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allotment_(gardening) gotcha! cheers, a public garden. Do you not have similar things wherever your from?

Most fans are just enjoying the season Some on here, who think they have a bit of nouse, just constantly doom monger and put Newcastle down. They were moaning pre season about us doing a Leeds and now that they havent got that to moan about they are moaning about next fucking season! I am sure come Next season they will quickly find something else to moan about if we start off ok. I'm enjoying this season but under no illusion what next season will bring. I'm still renewing like. Your optimism in Hughton and his ability to find worldclass youngsters and pay them a relative pittance is not grounded in reality imo. Yes Renton, but all summer you had no illusions how badly we were going to do in this league.

I think he'll do well and is growing in the job. Whats funnier was the clamour for Shearer with no coaching experience and no management experience. Scoring a hat-ful of goals doesn't make you a good manager. Can't fault him this season and he deserves some credit, a lot of credit in fact. He will be out on his arse before Christmas next season imo. Then I dread to think who the fat cunt will employ since this is the man who thought JFK was up to the job. Shearer I think would have done a similar job but has the advantage of being a globally famous personality and has links to the club. He had coaching experience and as much managerial experience as Hughton at the time. Are you having a pop at him for a job he was never given a chance to do? Not really having a pop at Shearer, just commenting on the fact that Hughton still doesnt carry much weight with some fans, wher as Shearer would probably being immortalised for achieving the same result. We would also not be saying he would be out on his arse by Christmas. Surely you can see the mis match. Aye, but that's common sense given their relative statures at the club and with some fans. You're needlessly stating the obvious. You also have nothing to base the fact that Shearer would have been worse on. I'd say our results this season show how big the gap between us and the premiership is, not that Hughton is now somehow a good manager. We'll see soon enough. But its not common sense, thats the point. If Shearer had done the same Job that Hughton has done, you would not be writing that he will be out on his arse by Christmas. With regard to your other comments, I think Shearer is too aloof in a Roy Keane way. And as for the gap theory, it aint working for Boro. Im not saying Hughtons the next Wenger, but I will back him until its proved he is not capable. I don't think a young Wenger or Ferguson could be successful under Ashley , Shearer's well out of it imo. Are you seriously saying Boro's mediocre form is proof that the gap between the leagues isn't as gaping as a Rocco Silfredi victim? my point, that I have always made about the ex regime, in a nutshell. You get a good manager, if the board don't back him, he is off. At least when you have a board that has ambition, you will get success with a manager who has ability. And a lot of Debt backing managers with little ability

I know this is still very serious business on our allotment site and when it gets near show time some of them camp out to deter any shenanigans You're taking the piss? :jonas: :jonas: Definitely not. Its well known that quite a bit of sabotage takes place as the shows get nearer. Go round any allotment late at night in summer and the "dads army" will be on patrol!!!

And what would be the point of that?? To teach the smug fuckers a lesson

These are the ones I have just sewn yesterday in a propagator. Will then transplant them into pots in the conservatory before planting out. Im sure there are loads more you could plant depending on your tastes. Bean Chereoke Trail of Tears Cauliflower Romanesco Ottobrino Lettuce Mix Mange Tout Oregon Sugar Pod Peas Climbing Telephone Raddish Mixed Easter Egg Sweet Peppers Yollo Wonder Sweet Peppers Banana Sweet Corn Dolce Lettuce Iceberg Great Lakes 118 Lettuce Little Gem Peas Petoi Pois Waverix Tomatoes Tigerella Which are the ones where I can just chuck the seeds into the soil without too much aggro?? Lazy fucker Someone better qualified than me will tell you but basically I think you can do it with most of them. The downside is you have to wait till the soil is warmer. By starting them in an Asda £2 propagator I can basically "enjoy" the hobby now while we are still getting frosts and the plants will have a good head start when they do go in.

Dont normally pay too much attention to other leagues or the mackems but just had a peak at the league table and didnt realise how close they are. I am sure most would have been delighted with the set up they have and considered it to be a step in the right direction; A billionaire owner A well loved former player as Chairman An established premiership manager in Steve Bruce Money spent on the likes of Bent etc And yet its still turned to shit for them ....

Oh for the golden days when the nice officers could have chucked the camcorder in the Thames and given them a real good kicking.

Cant you get away with a bit of patio growing? Some strawberries in hanging baskets, taties in a bin, tomatoes up a fance?

I would love to see him and Guthrie given a go in the middle but wonder if we will ever see a decent run of form from him. He certainly has something extra if only he could show more of it.

Oh Dear.... (to coin a phrase) True though Being an optimist I can live with making optimistic predictions in the same way that you have to live with your legendary, arse-splintering, fence sitting remarks. Im also sure you wouldnt let me get away with being wise after the event

And dont forget a giant sunflower for the litl'un

Tabloid-tastic to suggest otherwise. I am referring more to the various discussions etc on here and elsewhere during the summer. I have no doubt that if Ashley had appointed Shearer and we had achieved the same as now, Shearer would be being touted as the next big thing, next england manager etc. For the record I dont think Shearer would have done as well as Hughton has.
