Enclosure Old Timer

Pretty sure that picture is Clifton Bridge station, Ashton Gate Halt was a far more basic affair.

A typical no mark with his nose stuck up their arse !  I believe the regular mug punter down there think they are a big club because they are fortunate to come from a big city, never mind the fact that 7/8ths of fans support the team in red  ! It may as well be Mangotsfield or Portway for all the difference it makes

I'll tell you what if these quartered cretins EVER fluked their way to promotion it would be an infinitely bigger shock than Luton, Brentford or Bounemouth getting to to the Prem ever was !

Come down off the fence Slarti and say what you really mean!!!

Those floodlight pylons were a thing of beauty.

Some old music live tonight with Fairport Convention at Bath Forum. Not cutting edge or ground breaking, just a great evenings entertainment with some superb musicians. 

Just need to advertise for a few retired tradesmen looking to earn a few bob......oh sorry someone else has already done that!!

Saw Melanie at the 1970 Isle of Wight festival, very underrated singer/songwriter. RIP.

Of far greater significance was the 2-1 win against Liverpool in May '77 which set us up for the epic at Coventry 3 days later.

Plume of Feathers opposite Mardyke, cracking little pub, used to drink there before every home game. 

Tony Clarkin,guitarist and songwriter with Magnum, one of my favourite Metal bands,R.I.P.

Showing the managers every 20 seconds or so on televised football. Just show the game for christ's sake!

Just giving Stranglers 'Rattus Norvegicus' a blast for the first time in yonks, still a brilliant album all these years on.

That was a lively day

Certainly was, I remember the police helicopter hovering overhead while we were waiting to be let out of the ground. 

Just watching Shane's funeral on Sky news, Nick Cave's heart rending version of Rainy Night in Soho and various surviving Pogues and Dubliners turning the service into a party with a glorious uncensored Fairy Tale of New York really did bring a tear to the eye.

One that went under the radar last week was the death of Killing Joke guitarist Geordie Walker.

Some of the most riotous gigs I've ever been to, some of the most beautiful music I've ever heard. R.I.P Shane. 

Went to Hammersmith Apollo to see the Saw Doctors last night, crazy night which ranks up there with the best gigs I've been to.
