  1. I'd rule out Cologne, although that may be through overfamiliarity. The cathedral and the Christmas markets are impressive (though also stupidly busy) but there's not a huge amount to the place beyond that, particularly when you can't really use it as a base for exploring the Rhine because it's, well, December.
  2. We talked about it in the sporting books thread a while back but I still haven't got round to it. Brain-thawing sun holiday planned for December so it's on the list for then.
  3. And then the scandal, oh the scandal. Was proper exciting like. Everyone enjoys a villain. Pity that era set the template for the sport, and sprinting in particular, being properly riddled with drugs nowadays, but there you go.
  4. I wasn't, I think my first time at a Gateshead event would have been the Europa Cup (as was) in 1989, which wouldn't have featured Daley anyway. Complex character I agree, he's never seemed happy playing the game, which may be to his credit even if it's meant a few mis-steps along the way. Even the T-shirt I can understand to an extent in the context of what must have been a ridiculously disproportionate media focus on Lewis above everyone else at the Los Angeles games. I mean, Lewis didn't have a wrist-busting ZX Spectrum game named after him, did he?
  5. I was thinking something similar......
  6. I would like to stress that this was pre-Cabaye and times were pretty desperate.
  7. "No in tent" was his defence after the Lennon incident too.

  10. Though obviously if your imagination just plays back the last piece of weird, warped porn you saw...

  13. My opinion of it remains largely unchanged.
  14. If anything's going to tempt me off the wagon...
  15. CT, you're back! And your cooking skills have improved!
