I used to catch the 5-30pm bus from Gillingham to Snodland. On a Friday I used to arrive home on the 3-30pm bus! No, it wasn't time travel The traffic was so bad that by standing on the rear platform and jumping off and running, hopping on the nearest bus if the traffic started to move and so...

Subject: SCAM WARNING BE CAREFUL IF SHOPPING IN ASDA OR TESCO'S Over the last month I have become a victim of a clever Eastern European scam while out shopping. Simply dropping into Asda for a bit of shopping turned out to be quite an experience. Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't...

You are correct to say that you can stick aseveral stamps on an envelope to make up the total price. However you will probably find that uch an item will take longer to arrive than one bearing a single stamp for the correct amount. TRhe multi stamp items are often thrown out by the post office...

I was there, don't remember the tee shirts though. Worst bit was that we later signed Ovard.

I remember well the occasion of Akinbiyi's debut against Plymouth. My brother in law was home from the Midlands and I dropped in on the way over to see if he was going to come. First of all he wasn't coming and then at the last minute and just as I was leaving he decided that yes perhaps he...
