Not much pissing about required, just press the button that looks like a speech bubble with quotation mark when replying.

I know how to do that. As this proves but I was replying to two different folk and I deemed doing a double dip quote reply was more bother than it's worth.

I got The Red Army today.......

Some fantastic pictures in it from all eras The fantastic possibly the best fitba fan pic ever with all the bunnets is obviously there. But there is one from the same day of the Soother stappet full of bunnets. I had never seen it before. But the best has to be pages 146/147. R*****s in 1929. Awesome

A few folk i know dotted through and also a few folk i used to kick lumps out of and get lumps kicked out of by when i played.

One slight issue though. Some of the captions come across a bit cheesy

Including my much loved “Here we go”

Sad news. Lovely man.

Jack Webster was a superb writer and it was due to reading his autobiography that got me to pick up the book Sunset Song, which along with the other two books in the trilogy, would rank easily in the best books I have ever read.

Thanks & RIP Jack
