New Writtle Street.

[Psaw]

Ah memories, the above was mentioned, George Harris got the winner in 1969 there, it was like Liverpool v ManCity, but Chelmsford were top dogs. They were awesome back then, when those mauve hoops trotted out at the Abbey i felt fear.

At the Chelmsford ground back then i felt the life changing emotions of winning or losing.

Not like now, that any thing amber and black is canker.

I notice Dave Smith has passed on, god rest his soul, he didnt grow up in Milton road it was Sturton Street, i know, i was there, we knocked around in his garden as kids.

He had a significant drive, an energy, not always a good one, he made things happen. Petersfield in those days, amazing. Best wishes mate.

If you could go back in time and relive or even see for the first time for that matter,a game which would it be Frank,any game,any year,any country and why,I'm gonna say that you will plump fir a late 60s early 70s game as these seem to bring you the fondest memories of football

[Psaw]

Correct, it was United v Barnet, top of the table, United scored first, but went in at half time 3-1 down, pulled it back to 3-3, last minute penalty, won 4-3, the ups and downs were amazing, the crowd incredible.

United v Bristol City in the fa cup, god knows what year that was, third replay i think, won 5-1, United decimated Bristol, when Lee Philpott hit that volley the hair on the back of my neck stood up, the crowd went barmy, Becks best night, maybe.

What about you?

The Bristol City games was in 1990 Frank,I would like to say that my encyclopedic knowledge of football remembered it straight away but in reality I googled it,it took three games to settle to who went into the next round,do they even do that anymore?

My choice is easy and would be the 12th February 1994,Notts v Forest at Meadow Lane,Notts took a lead and with five minutes to go looked like we was going to get a win over our neartest rivals then disaster,Forest equalised and the Forest fans went mad,they had been given two stands so the noise seemed deafening but then 90 seconds later Charlie Palmer scores to make it 2-1,the Forest fans was still celebrating their goal when he scored and the atmosphere was amazing

Forest fans outnumber Notts fans probably five to one in Nottingham,they had won the European Cup twice ten years earlier and had been going on about it ever since but Notts had beat them that day and beat them in dramatic style,I couldn't wait to get to work on Monday and bask in the glory,my only regret in life is that I've never seen Notts in a league higher than Forest and let's be honest I never will but I was there at that game and would pay good money to relive it again

[Psaw]

I can relate to derbies, United v City in the 60s were amazing, one famous game ended in a punchup and the game was abandoned. It was 1990 eh, doent seem that long ago, thanks for looking it up, and no replays now are verboten.

In Buddism there is the concept of impermanence, they call it entropy in science, every thing changes over time. that one day County will be better than Forest, or not. The weirdness of the universe does state that County may win the euro cup THREE times, or end up in the united counties league playing Deeping Rangers away, or anything in between.

It will change.

Look at Carlisle, who saw that coming. The universe responds to thoughts and feeling.

I can't believe that 1990 was 35 years ago,why does time travel faster the older that you get,I'm 63 now and it seems that a day is about 16 hours long,I get up,do some stuff,have my tea and before I know it it's time to go to bed,how can somebody born in 1990 be 35 today,it just doesn't seem right,where has all the years gone Frank,1990 seems like 15 years ago not 35

[Psaw]

Your spot on, i have no idea where time goes, a week to me is nothing. I saw some research on it to say that time does get quicker the older you get, but i didnt read it, i didnt have time.

The older i get i live more in my head than externally, that might be it, i entertain a thought....and ten minutes have gone.


We might be going yampy. Have you made a will?, im posting mine tomorrow, if you havent do it, time is short.

[chaincey.ncfc]

No I haven't made a will Frank,I've got no kids and the only thing that I have of value is my house and CD collection,my ex will get the house as she already owns 50% of it and we agreed that whoever outlasted the other got the other 50%,I can't see anyone fighting over the CDs what with my musicial taste and Coco has already been sorted out

I have got my funeral paid for though and instructions on what to do with my ashes,I'm looking forward to that so I hope that it's honoured

[Psaw]

You are undervaluing yourself and your impact on the world. Agreeing with your ex is not the same as bequething it in a will, it could be challenged without that and she might not get it. I dont know what you mean by your last sentance, but Dr Mary Neal had an interesting take.

She survived a near death experience, an incredible one, and she said that one of the things survivors of ndes have is secret knowledge.

She did say this though, as one of the forbidden truths is that when she attended funarals of relatives or work mates she regarded those people as being lucky bar stewards.

Make of that what you will, she was told her son would die young, he did, and she was ok with that.

[chaincey.ncfc]

What did she experience in her near death and have others had the same experience? I mean who knows which path your mind takes when those extreme circumstances arrive,does it shut down or maybe show a light coming from the sky to somehow try to pacify the situation?
I'm not afraid of entering the next world and in a way looking forward to seeing what lays ahead in the next journey

When I go my ashes are going to go on a final trip,one that I would love to do in real life but can't as it's stupid and dangerous but as a pile of ashes I'm all for it,fingers crossed that I get my final wish

I want my ex to have my half of the house,nobody will contest it and as we've never divorced should be straight forward,an agreement is an agreement Frank,I couldn't go back on it now
