    Haha, i'll tell him! He's a great character who lives in Stoke (moved from Derby in the late 1970's) and still gets to most matches. Often to be found in the Merry Widows on match days.

    Is that Gibbo?

    Oh, when I went on the site, it only had one with a chequered situation at the sides. Thanks for getting back. :thumbsup:

    Neither had the chequered sides in the shop. There was mine and the other had the writing underneath the ram.

    Where did you get that Ossie ? I've just put a 15 foot flag pole up on Friday and am looking for a plain white flag with a black Ram on it. I've looked at the club shop and I'm not keen on the only flag they are selling.

    That was from the club shop last week. They had 2 designs in stock.

    What's radio 2s demographic?

    Radio 1 seems to be aimed at anyone 14 or younger, hence the fuckwittery of Dick Grisham*. 

    Radio 2 plays anything from Adele to Elvis. Now forgive my here say but elvis died when I was a wee boy. His music was in the charts in the 60s - 50 years ago. If you were born in the 50s your era is more likely the late 60s, psychedelic flower power and some fabulous early rock. Late 50s and early 60s music surely is for people born in the 40s, who will be pensionable age now.

    What's the station for middle aged farts like me. Or, more generally, anyone aged between 16 and 59?

    Plus late night radio 2 has some fecking strange stuff. Like Hammond organ music, dance hall or C&W. Jesus.

    EDIT: *Grimshaw. Dick Grimshaw. You know what I meant.

    Absolute 80's plays some good stuff and then I switch between Smooth, Gold and my USB stick/CD player.

    Many years ago, I gave a lift home to a lad of about 18. He'd been out with one of my daughters, on a first date. When they got back, I offered him a lift back to his place.  

    He got into the car, and without saying a word, ejected the cassette from the player (it was a long time ago!), and replaced it with one from his jacket pocket. Then pressed play. 

    There wasn't a second date. 

    He would have been able to pick his cassette up of the road straight after he had picked himself up.

    Radio 1, especially a section called news before the news on a Saturday, where actual adult human beings phone in to tell what they are doing that day eg "I'm cutting my toe-nails says Paul in Wigan"or "Sarah in Colchster is tidying her sock draw". So I guess it's supposed to be ironic ( I think), but it's not funny so grow the funk up !!!!! And as for the big weekend that they go on about 3 months before it happens and for 3 months after, I don't give a sausage about Snoop dog playing in some muddy field in Norwich....just shut up about your big weekend and play some music!

    Yes I can turn over, but I have 3 daughters with one a teen so when I'm driving them about unfortunately this is what I have to endure. I hate Radio 1

    My car, my music. Anybody traveling in my car has 2 choices, listen to my music or find another way to get to your destination.

  7. After reading through this thread I realise how lucky I am not to have suffered what is obviously a very real and distressing condition.

    But I also think it's brilliant how people are willing to help others by posting about their own experiences of what must have been some of the most difficult parts of their lives.

    Good on you and I honestly hope that this thread helps the people that need it.
