Apart from about 5 years, I’ve been living in Brazil (Santa Catarina State) for 28 years now and my two lads were born here. It’s always been my ambition to retire in England, get a season ticket and watch as many home and away games as possible. Ashley’s spoiling the plan because I won’t spend a cent at the club till he goes!
Cheers to Whitley Bay - great memories there!
Hi TopToon. Have you still got a Geordie accent tinged with the lovely gentle border influence and how have you brought your lads up to speak?
