    Long story, power cuts and a water dowser.

    If I had posted this when it started, it may have had the legs to match MK's fridge post. So i'll keep it short but you may get bored. Earlier this year, probably February time, I saw some damp patches on the left side outside wall of my house. Thought they would dry up but they didn't. We...

    Carling Cup

    Great news... but I'd have swopped it for win on Saturday. Having said that - who do we fancy in Round 4? There are some big names left... Arsenal, Everton, Watford and Villa are definitely through. I'd take any of them at the Hall (or Arsenal away). Birmingham also won. No thanks...

    The fbm view and ratings
