What's Preston like? Anyone know?

[joggerjayne]

Ooh, fab trivia, Khandro x

JJ; We've just been discussing it over in 'Books and Authors' x

They don't have any wine in the concourse bar. Hmm ...

There's a beer called John Smith's.

Okay, it's a bottle of cider. And a bag of Minstrels.

Wine!! At a footy match?! I say that is not on. No nuts or olives??

[Zacs-Master]

Surprised you're not in the directors box JJ.

[joggerjayne]

We have wine at the Amex. x

There's a sign in the Away supporters' loo that says Thank You For Making A Round Trip Of 568 Miles.

You're welcome :o)

We've been merrily tooling along on the train for ages, and now we've been turned out at Euston.

My pal and I are going to grab some nosebag in London before we hop on the last loco down to the coast.

When we grabbed our bags at the hotel before we got the train in Preston, there a few Seagulls checking in. They were staying the night after the game, instead of the night before the game. It was tempting to check back in, and have another night on the town up there, but we decided that having no more clean underwear might be an issue.

So here we are, in a taxi to the West End, where we will go out for dinner trailing our little suitcases.

Hope everyone's had a good day.

Oh, you'll all know by now that we lost 2-0. The own goal, and the fluffed penalty attempt, were particular highlights.

Since when did you start wearing underwear, JJ?

;-)

[joggerjayne]

In Preston in January, lol ...

I was tempted to take ski thermals!

[Buenchico]

We promise you a warm welcome in Ipswich, JJ, for the FA Cup 4th round (assuming that we can get past Lincoln first, of course!).

Haha, not clean "underwear" that is needed in Preston in January .....just more.

Hats off to you Jogger, that is one hell of a trip to take in support of your team.
Been there done that. Respect.

We have lingerie shops in t'North now JJ - just in case any visitors from afar need them you understand.

Used to be plenty lying around at the Wigan municipal swimming baths on a Sunday morning, Mamya ;-)
