Sneaked in your Raglan Quoit (sic?) bar a few years ago. Nice, friendly

Just drove past the Raglan after I picked up my tickets, it’s about a minutes walk to the Vic. Mind, there’s loads of pubs around the ground, take your pick.

Come Saturday it will be 2 weeks since our last game! Saturdays game at Gateshead was rescheduled as they played in the FA trophy.

You could have an interesting journey Jon, with the M25 closed all week end. Looks like a country route to the M11. We're on the train tomorrow.

On my first visit to Hartlepool I was on the train when two people got on at York I think. They sat opposite me, a father and son. I was wearing my Southend fleece. The father started starring at me intently.

I wasn't too worried at first as I had to change at another station to get to Hartlepool. When I went to get off at Thornably they stood up and followed me. and I started to feel a bit uneasy. I got off and so did they. The station was empty and I thought I was going to get a right beating.

The older man then called out to me by my first name.

It turned out he was also a Shrimper and friend of a friend. We had met once at a drinks gathering about 5 years previously and it turned out he was a policeman,

Boy was I relieved!

M25 is closed in Surrey….not Essex from what I can see

Yes, my mistake. It sounded on the news yesterday as though the whole motorway was closed.
