Title: You Have Been Warned
Post by: HatterDon on June 21, 2011, 04:00:24 PM
Well, we've gotten passports renewed and tickets purchased. Your very humble South Texan and his Memsahib will return to Old Blighty for the first time since January 1993 in time for the September 17 [or 18 or 19] home match v. Man City.  094.gif

We will be camping in the wilds of an exotic tourist mecca called "Dorking"   :58: and will be taking the jungle rail into London [most likely on a daily basis] to try and find those 15 or 20 things in The City that weren't bulldozed for the Melinneum Celebrations.  :007:

I hope to meet many of you  :beer: -- especially those who don't want to punch me in the nose  093.gif -- while we're there, and I'm looking forward to my first match at the Cottage since some time in the early 1970s.   092.gif We are already getting excited. It's going to be like going to a family reunion where I know almost everyone, but have no idea what any of them look like.  082.gif

When do the auditions start? Or is this just part of your European tour?

Good on you Mr Hatter  :clap_hands: Wish I can join you but it is too complicated work wise as it is too close the World Police & Fire Men games which I have volunteered for and the 10 years anniversary of September 11. I will be an official for that which means I will be behind on real work so it does not seem logically possible from my end.

But I hope you and Mrs Hatter have a wonderful time and if I didn't have a lodger in my flat by the river I would have gladly handed it to you for your stay.

It feels like a FOF beerfest should be arranged at one of the boozers before the Citeh match.

And after, if necessary.

I will have to wait untill Sky reveal the real fixtures, but hopefully the game will be on the Saturday, would be great to meet up with you for a couple of pints.

thanks, gents [and to your ladies as well]. I don't know how many pints I can get down me and still see, but meeting you and talking Fulham before a match sounds like heaven to this old geezer.
