Sutton v Salisbury this weekend. This means drunkeness and tomfoolery abound.
When will the Salisbury lot be in town for the traditional Sutton hospitality?

If travelling by train, they'll need to negotiate the re-signalling works at Basingstoke - which means the dreaded rail replacement bus service between Andover and Farnborough.  So the fun and frolics could be curtailed courtesy of Notwork Rail.  But maybe they have alternative travel arrangements...  |

None of us like the dreaded replacement buses, so we've worked out a cross country route that avoids the knackered Salisbury-Waterloo route. Takes a bit longer, but at least we remain on trains to drink, do our crosswords, use the facilities etc. The Salisbury pro-celebrity drinking team's estimated time of arrival is 11ish. (that's at Sutton, not West Sutton) |

Hope to meet some of you at the ground, alas I'm on nights again so partaking of the amber fluid is out. If anyone wants to say hi, I'll be selling proggys, usually at the GGL end!

I rather suspect that the Salisbury crew will get to Sutton before I do! Will catch up with you all at some point between 11 and 3.  |

The others don't know we're getting in at 11 yet, but with a bit of playing with the timetable I've given us an extra half hour. Will let Malx know. |

Sutton v Salisbury this weekend. This means drunkeness and tomfoolery abound. You playing the rôle of fool, or Tom tomorrow, Dave? I'm adaptable - if you aren't up for it, I'm sure I could double up on both rôles! As for Drunkeness? Well that's practically my métier! |

Nice accents! Yeah, sad isn't it...  Can't help myself. Had a very hard, uncompromising French Teacher from an early age. I needed one accent tonight - and kept the Word Processor in another Window - and can't seem to help myself finding the need to use it over & over. That woman has a lot to answer for! 20 years on, I simply cannot relax if I potter along to a Village Fair unless the circumflex appears over the 'e' of Fête on the hand-painted sign beside the Farmer's field....  |

Our pleasure. We'll try not to be so generous with the points next season (assuming our paths don't diverge this summer!) but we'd love to turn on the ale taps of hospitality once again.
I assume the timing of Dave's post doesn't indicate any failed connections on the let's avoid-Basingstoke rail loop home.

I'm sorry I missed out on the festivities! I hope we meet again next season when I'll be able to partake in these activities. (Then again good luck in the play-offs!) |

No Salisbury, thank YOU! Especially thank you for the beer. Shame I didn't realise it was against ground regs  |

Got to Wimbledon then pretty much straight on a train to Clapham. Thanks once again to our perfect hosts. |
