    MK Dons

    Having got over the disappointment of my Senior ticket not being queried for the Cheltenham game I have already bought my ticket for MK. Probably my last game of the season as I am off to Turkey for a while.

    How old are you cayambe,I thought that you was younger than somebody who could claim for a Senior ticket (or was that the problem eh?)
    I think that Griff is older than me and I'm 57,who's retired on here and whos a nipper in their twenties then?

    I'm 65 Chalky. When I met Tim (Piglet) a few years ago his comment was that I was a lot younger than he had imagined! Griff must be about 64 - he was in the year below me at Nelson Thomlinson School although for the life of me I cannot recall what he looks like. I'm not retired due to some bad decisions in the past (marriages and business) and a still youngish youngest daughter with a year to go at school besides I like my work which is also my only "hobby" (apart from CUFC!)

    Get yourself up for the MK game Chalky - we can have a message board meet (I'm sure the single table we would need would be available in the rugby club)!

    You have my age right Cayambe. I was lean with longish hair by the time I left school. Played a lot of rugby with the likes of Lenny Miller and Martin Connelly. Also was a sprinter and long-jumper. Where were you living at the time?

    One of Mr Stowe's final comments on me referred to my likeness to King Charles Not the dog - but due to the hair style!) I am in contact with Brian Charters (Facebook but hopefully a pint soon) and meet up with Alan Haile on a regular basis. Still close friends with Sandy Dalton and Peter Canham. I am a Dalston lad and now own the house - I will move back in a few weeks time from Carlisle centre as I need a UK base while I am away.

    Yeah I feel your pain on that one mate

    It looks like that we are old codgers then but that's not a bad thing,I don't mind leaving the young ones to.Twitter or whatever,I'm definitely thinking about finishing work at 60, a mate of mine finished at 60 and I asked him how much he got financially punished for not waiting until he was 65 and I couldn't believe it when he said that it was 60 for the nhs pension,when I checked and saw that he was right I had practically made up my mind there and then

    No pain in terms of marriages - I would write as happy as a horse in **** but that may risk you gettung a tad excited
