On a bus in East London the other day, I saw a father and 4-year old son with matching mullets. Was cute, yet horrifying.
The mother didn't speak to either of them, possibly by way of protest.

The only thing I know about Banstead is that their badge has got a sheep on it.

Banstead are managed by Dave Leworthy I think, they certainly were at the end of last season.
Do pop along as give some regards to the great man on behalf of the H&W mob won't you!
He may not have cut it as a manager for us, but he was a great character, particularly as a player. My favourite memory is of a game towards the end of his playing days, about five years ago now, we were losing 1-0 at home to Tiverton and we were all grumbling roughly around the 75th minute that we should take the tired old man off (I think he was 39 at that point). Naturally, he then scored a brace in the 78th and 79th minutes to win it.
A magical moment. I got together with my lovely missus for the first time the night before too, and it was my birthday on the following (bank holiday) Monday, so a pretty good weekend all told! ;D

Great powers of recollection skif - I'm impressed that you remembered getting together with the missus for the first time. I can recall quality footy moments in minute detail from decades ago as if they happened only yesterday; but I still struggle with the date of our wedding anniversary! Oops

Oops My memory is pretty poor really (thats why I write so much - I'd forget otherwise) but combination of my own birthday and a Roy Of The Rovers display helps in terms of determining an 'anniversary' - not that me and m'lady do much to celebrate. I always remember to send a bunch of flowers to Dave Leworthy every April though.
