Christmas Tree

So who has anyone met or had a connection too the rich and famous? I have several and will start with in my street. Apparrently Don Revie used to Live next door to us and the beatles once stayed over for a night in a house several doors from ours! Before my time. I have also met Keegan several times, including a trip to his house in John Halls estate, (name escapes me). Sir Bobby, Peter Beardsley, Gazza and Denise Welch on many occasions who is a hoot.

Couldnt see a thread already for these. Naturally more Kudos to home made ones. Two for starters. A lady who lived on a hill Used dynamite sticks for a thrill They found her vagina In North Carolina And bits of her tits in Brazil There was a young vampire called Mabel With periods exceedingly stable By the light of the moon She sat down with a spoon And drank herself under the table There was a compendium of lies From Ashley and Mini Me Wise The supporters kept tally And joined in a rally And promised to buy no more pies.

Dont know if anyone else has done this. Think its now about £12 a head. Did it during the Derby last year and have to say it was brilliant. Best bit was walking down and then out of the tunnel seeing the ground loom large ahead. I would reccomend anyone to do it and if possible make sure its a match day as theres a real buzz going on behind the scenes and more real stuff to see.

Just read the latest statement on their website: NUSC Rally - Sunday 22nd February 2pm The Rally arranged by NUSC on Sunday is planned to raise NUSC's desire for Newcastle United Supporters to unite together in support of Newcastle United and where it stands in our hearts. NUSC believes that this is a critical point in our season and that unity is strength when it comes to shaping the future direction of the Club both on and off the field. The timetable is as follows +2pm - entertainment by the Newcastle Drum Band 2.30pm speaking opportunity 2.50pm - musical interlude 3.00pm - second speaking opportunity 3.10pm - live music from "Oh Lads" 3.20pm - third speaking opportunity 3.30pm - musical finale and orderly disperse to St James' Park for what hopefully will be 3 well earned points come 6pm. (these times are flexible and may be liable to change) the "staging" area will be at the south side of the monument facing down towards Grey St. The whole emphasis will be on generating a fun, carnival atmosphere. We hope to have flags and banners on display and we welcome supporters to bring along and display their own flags. There will be an opportunity for those who wish to, to take up membership of NUSC. Some members have requested that NUSC petition the executives of Newcastle United therefore members will be seeking support for the petition during the course of the rally. There will be stewards on hand, wearing hi visibility jackets who will be there to assist anyone who requires help and a low key but nonetheless obvious police presence will be in the vicinity; as there would be on any normal match day. NUSC politely request that those attending the rally pay respect to those who wish to go about their normal sunday shopping experience and allow them to do so with the minimum of distraction. We would also like to emphasise that this is not a protest and no march is planned or sanctioned nor permission requested by NUSC.

Mobile Broadband - The thingy that makes your laptop work when out and about Apologies if there is already a dedicated topic for this. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Been looking all morning at all the mind boggling deals fake free laptops etc. My conclusion is that its far cheaper to buy the lap top and mibile broadband seperately. o2 charge about 14.50 a month on a 24 month contract 3gb allowance where as vodaphone, if you go via the cash back website quidco.com you can get £90 cashback effectively making your mobile broadband £7.50 a month Found this through the moneysavingexpert.com website which is very useful for deals. Not signing up for a day or two so if anyone knows any better deals, please advise.

Sky News Friday 13th 2009 "A widow who lost her husband in the September 11 attacks is reportedly among the 50 people who died when a plane crashed near Buffalo". Planes eh!

I know this has been discussed in other topics this man really needs a topic of his own to thrash it out. He is the most powerful person in our club that knows anything about football. Before and since he arrived he has been slagged to oblivion, mainly for been one of those irritating players that you love to hate. However he is out there trying to recruit the cream of the world football talent for our club. More over, in the position we are now in, he could be just the person to take over the reins and get us to safety. Ex England Pro Succesful Chelsea Manager Managed a lower league team to the cup final Has an average success ration of 47% with leeds Realistically whoever we can drag in for the next 13 games will be reporting to him anyway, so why not just let him get on with it. I would rather have someone like him with balls and a fierce desire to succeed on the sideline than Hughton or B Robson or Venables. Come on Dennis, Save our season (And yes Alex I know, smb or wum )
