Spot the ball

I saw this comment today attached to an article on the local rags sport website and had to post it...  

"Nobody can blame Hull fans for not wanting to pay £20 

to watch from the South Stand at Craven 

Park. It's like watching a subbuteo 

match from the wrong end of a telescope."

Hats off to Thomas Cook - if people are stupid enough to pay for it!

I have better things to spend my money on and do while I'm away.

CSN at the MEN

What a great gig - loads of CSN material, an acoustic Ruby Tuesday, some acoustic Dylan, a Graham Nash song I've neaver heard before, possibly called Cold Rain? Most impressive of all three Buffalo Springfield songs!

"Don't worry, we're going to do every song Dave Crosby can rember the words to!" Graham Nash

Pre show Picture!

Unfortunately you can't make out the hippy/morrocan throws and rugs!
