I currently have a groin/thigh strain from footie on Sunday but if that clears up then Tues 29th would be good for me.......

R15 would be good, perhaps Ric could run one of his programmes and e-mail to me, unless of course the splendid tpfkar can get along on the 29th :D

Hi Matt, yes I would be up for a challenge but it would have to be the Tuesday for me. I think the "All Lines" challenge would be quite good as I still have to complete one of these!
One day I shall return!

I wouldn't! There's nothing wrong with Arsenal, whereas there certainly is with Newcastle United!

Yes thats true, apparently Leeds was recently voted as the place with most attractive people and York as the nicest place to spend a romantic weekend. Birmingham came bottom in both of these polls!

The best Fish & Chips in my opinion comes from Cornwall (Nozza might agree?) There are two shops that I would vote for, one in Mevagissy and the other in St. Columb Major.

As for this challenge.... I will be ok for any date as long as its a Tuesday or Thursday.
One day I shall return!
