It's less than 2 weeks to the big kick off - where did that summer that hasn't finished yet disappear to? We haven't even had a World Cup yet?!?!?!?!

So everyone in again? Any new un's wanting to join in? How do we spread the word apart from PMs?

As per normal, happy to run it again, happy to hand it over to a more talented individual, which is probably all of you, though some are already let's say holding a tad more than just their own end up on these boards.

Don't get baked in the sun the next couple of days folks.

Put your frying pan out on your front step with a couple of eggs and some rashers of bacon in it the next couple of days to save some brass on your leccy and gas bills though. You might even be able to make a cheese toasty for lunch and bake some cakes for tea.

It's the nearest thing to free solar energy most of us are gonna get. Make the most of the free global warming effect while you can before those damned politicians hand their mates £millions of our brass to refreeze the polar ice-caps, and then tell us they melted them anyway because they turned the switch the wrong way. Who'd have known? How could it have possibly gone wrong?

Back in the real world - if you've enough brass to spare for next season .... please join in.
