  1. A rabbit walks into a pub and says to the barman, 'Can I have a pint of beer, and a Ham and Cheese Toastie?' The barman is amazed, but gives the rabbit a pint of beer and a ham and cheese toastie. The rabbit drinks the beer and eats the toastie. He then leaves. The following night the rabbit returns and again asks for a pint of beer, and a Ham and Cheese Toastie. The barman, now intrigued by the rabbit and the extra drinkers in the pub, (because word gets round), gives the rabbit the pint and the Toastie. The rabbit consumes them and leaves. The next night, the pub is packed. In walks the rabbit and says, 'A pint of beer and a Ham and Cheese Toastie, please barman.' The crowd is hushed as the barman gives the rabbit his pint and toastie, and then burst into applause as the rabbit wolfs them down. The next night there is standing room only in the pub. Coaches have been laid on for the crowds of patrons attending. The barman is making more money in one week than he did all last year In walks the rabbit and says, 'A pint of beer and a Ham and Cheese Toastie, please barman.' The barman says, 'I'm sorry rabbit, old mate, old mucker, but we are right out of them Ham and Cheese Toasties.' The rabbit looks aghast. The crowd has quietened to almost a whisper, when the barman clears his throat nervously and says, 'We do have a very nice Cheese and Onion Toastie. The rabbit looks him in the eye and says, 'Are you sure I will like it.' The crowd's bated breath is ear shatteringly silent. The barman, with a roguish smile says, 'Do you think that I would let down one of my best friends. I know you'll love it.' 'Ok,' says the rabbit, 'I'll have a pint of beer and a Cheese and Onion Toastie.' The pub erupts with glee as the rabbit quaffs the beer and guzzles the toastie. He then waves to the crowd and leaves.... NEVER TO RETURN!!!!!! One year later, in the now impoverished public house, the barman, (who has only served 4 drinks tonight, 3 of which were his), calls time. When he is cleaning down the now empty bar, he sees a small white form, floating above the bar. The barman says, 'Who are you? To which he is answered, 'I am the ghost of the rabbit that used to frequent your public house.' The barman says, 'I remember you. You made me famous. You would come in every night and have a pint of beer and a Ham and Cheese Toastie. Masses came to see you and this place was famous.' The rabbit says, 'Yes I know.' The barman said, 'I remember, on your last night we didn't have any Ham and Cheese Toasties. You had a Cheese and Onion one instead.' The rabbit said, 'Yes, you promised me that I would love it.' The barman said, 'You never came back, what happened?' 'I DIED', said the rabbit. 'NO!' said the barman. 'What from?' After a short pause, the rabbit said ... 'Mixin-me-toasties'
  2. The vote hasn't taken place yet - of the 41 that will vote they need a minimum of 31 for the change to be implemented
  3. Somerset scored 397/8 off their 50 overs vs Sussex in pre season fixture today
  4. The original plan is to share between the three, there is a meeting at Somerset tomorrow night with more information, hopefully that'll be cascaded to those of us who can't get there
  5. Nice to see the Somerset lad's continuing where they left off yesterday, Craig Overton just took a hattrick
  6. What I wrote above is the proposed splits
  7. North LondonSouth LondonWest (Cardiff, Bristol, and possibly Taunton)Red Rose (Old Trafford)White Rose (Headingley)BirminghamTrent BridgeSouth (Ageas Bowl)
  8. NEVER going to happen - things like this are much bigger than Bristol Sport Somerset / Glos / Glamorgan are likely to be merged for this region - won't have any connection to Bristol sport
  9. They have just posted debts of £15m and the new stand will add another £25m to their losses !!
  10. Maybe not - with a Wembley final next weekend they will be playing for places A Cov supporting mate of mine said they played out of their skins Tuesday night against Port Vale
  11. Don't let facts ruin let another disalusional sag head
  12. Surely Australia still get decent crowds ? Certainly bigger than ours for the Ashes tour
  13. An old picture, can only assume he signs some kind of register as a result of this now
  14. Certainly not many English speakers at QPR
  15. 30 people ejected !! Blimey that must have been some disturbance
  16. Notice the club are pushing the ticket sales of the Bristol Vs Bath game - just wondering why BT sport would want this fixture moved from the Friday night to the Sunday when England are playing Italy - this will surely affect not just the crowd in the ground but also the TV viewing audience at home
  17. Or financially screwed With many at the top are, with London Irish currently one of the worst off
  18. Still convinced even if Bristol finish bottom they wont go down I wonder if the club know this too, hence the calibre of sigings?
  19. Can't read the twitter link above - assume it is similar to this? Sacked Sale Sharks winger Tom Arscott has been found guilty of passing on confidential team information to Bristol by the Rugby Football Union. The 29-year-old was suspended by Sale on 4 January and then sacked 16 days later after an internal investigation by the Premiership club. The RFU investigation concluded Bristol were aware of Sale's line-out set up and their defensive pattern. The West Country side won 24-23 in Manchester on New Year's Day.
  20. Assume you know how many players have been brought in and how big the squad is? Just like the football side more quantatity less quality
  21. The corner is being re-shaped to it is more of a circular shape rather than the hideous mis-shape it used to be Goodness knows why they wait until Janaury to start the work though Yeah new scoreboard - which going on current form will probably break down - fully expect temporary stands for the rest of the space with the T20 international this summer Interestingly Somerset have never released any artwork of what it will look like when finished
