If Tripadvisor is anything to go by it hasn't improved! : The Chernobyl of holiday parks! This resort is reminiscent of Prepyat Fair, the abandoned funfair overlooking the polluted lake of Chernobyl. Apart from a recently-added facility (The Venue) in the centre (a little like the arrival of Chernobyl's Sarcophagus), there has been no investment in years; this is a sad, aging resort creaking under the weight of its own administration, poor hygiene - and the sort of guests that don't appear to care. So, in the effort to escape the onslaught of bingo, arcade machines and edgy drunkenness, we ventured outside. Here, smoking is so prevalent (no area for non-smokers appeared to exist - or at least, be respected) that I couldn't take the kids out for air. Approaching the back of the building (which also houses the swimming pool), the smell shifted from tobacco to the sweet waft of what appeared to be an unusual blend of pool chlorine and marijuana. We then walked past a fight in progress in our quest for a cleaner toilet. Did I mention it was only 9pm? Meanwhile, standing in huge shallow yellow puddles at the steel urinal trough, a (smoking) gentleman beside me dropped his cigarettes into the drain - which was backed up with urine. No problem: he simply fished the packet out with his hand, shook it, and put the box back in his pocket. In summary, if you fancy exploring a holiday site frozen in time [the 1980's, just after No. 4 Reactor exploded], getting drunk and vomiting over yourself, or holding in your poo for days on end, I can thoroughly recommend Billing Aquadome. It really will leave an indelible memory. But if you've got kids, enjoy clean facilities, and expect a holiday resort to invest in its own upkeep, you may want to give this one a wide berth. Late at night after reception closed caravans would come on the field and disappear before reception opened ( security are you too frightened or are you being slipped a little bribe to ignore what is going on?) We didn’t go out anywhere as we were worried about leaving our property alone. Seriously it’s a joke! Date of stay: May 2023 Trip type: Travelled as a couple Room Tip: Choose.somewhere else.

Found it

When I first moved to th'east midlands the A50 wasn't open so all trips to the game would be via M1 up to Leeds. Always made me laugh to see a sign (as heading south not long after you get on to it from M62). Very informative. Just said "Barnsley. London". As if to the Yorkies Barnsley was centre of all and then they reluctantly added "that there London". Do you still see signs for Billing Aquadrome south of here? I wonder if it's improved since this: Shit, Thieving Hotels. - Page 2 - Behind The Stands - Wanderers Ways. Neil Thompson 1961-2021

or after dissent the opposition captain gets a christmas card and can bring an extra player on for 10 minutes (if the ref's a bit unsure he can hand him a visa card and the sub has to be foreign)

or a panini card - the player had to swap positions with the keeper and go in goal for 10 minutes

or a green card, which means the player has to be recycled (ie subbed)

here's a thought. Whenever there's a red card for a sending off or a blue for the sin bin, then the opposition captain gets to decide who it applies to. Not the keeper obviously, that would just make the idea silly

So I see Ted Undies is back ! Well Brian and Nora, you successfully picked up on my mention of "Who" and suggested Wayne Entwistle as he shares a surname with one of the band, and that after playing 8 games for Bolton he finished off playing 2 for Hartlepool. So you went for the Victoria Ground. Well it was a good guess; but which other footballer shared one of the band's surnames? Yes, it was Andy Townsend. And where did he start his career? Yes, I see you nodding now Brian - it was at Welling as a computer operator while living in Greenwich. And what was his local Football League team? Yes, of course it was Charlton. Hard luck, here's a Dusty Bin miniature to take back to your recently flooded sheltered accommodation in Kegworth, and here's what you could have won (might have come in handy after those floods eh Nora - stop crying, look Dusty will put a smile back on your face)

Just looked at squads on wiki. It seems Zambia had a player whose first name is Toaster (Nsabata). Always guaranteed to pop up with a goal at the right time. Fiston Kalala Mayele (Congo) has a ring to it as well, as does Zé Turbo (Guinea-Bissau) and Aprocius Petrus (Namibia) who sounds more like a Roman gladiator. Not much print money spent on the back of replica shirts for Koka and Witi (Egypt) or the duo of Tó and Show (Angola).

Undies, I think you're slipping. It's plain old "Undies" from now on and "Ted Traf". Need to up your game old cockers!

aye, Halifax

That reminds me of a lad at work many moons ago who had a job interview. Last minute leaving home he realised his collar was wrinkled so decided, to save time, to iron it while wearing it - with predictable results! Even dafter was the one who got home pissed and finding his oven bust decided to cook a chicken with an iron. The resulting health issues were, by all accounts, not for the squeamish 😃

Reet, you're for it now. I've instructed my lawyers (Fiddler & Sons - the finest legal brains in Syston and winners of the award for "Best legal firm operating from a lock-up garage in the the East Midlands" in 2011) to issue a writ. I just need to check if they're still going....

Reet, I'm going to sue everyone on here who's called me a cunt over the years. Fucking quids in! I'll take payment in Lagavulin, tax exempt.

Always seems an odd phrase that. I mean the original kamikaze pilots chose to do it. These poor old drones have no choice. Finally flying - "Oh yes, this is the life; nice weather for my first flight, this is what I was born to do. Here I am slipping the surly bonds of Earth, and dancing the skies on laughter-silvered wings. Cracking; oh look it's a tank. Nice tank that. Let's have a closer look? OK fair enough. But not that close...not THAT close!...oh fu......."

Join up en masse for the 3rd Battalion Wanderersways. Smiley and Carlos can head up the cyber warfare division, with Cheese on PsyOps; Widders can provide the regimental mascot; them with air-fryers can be on cookhouse and we can send the Ant Hill mob over the top as cannon fodder. Little Whitt and Gonzo on "special ops" (more a Dirty Duo than Dozen, but that's budget cuts for you); Bolty to be our AUKUS rep and sort out the playlist for the regimental band when we troop the colour in front of the club shop followed by a mass straightener with 2 coy Latics Speyk Tank Regiment (two second hand Sunshine coaches modified to 6 gears, including 5 reverse). Th'East Midlands Whites will direct operations from HQ, naturally (my shoulder's playing up at the moment) - big map and plenty of wine supplied by regimental sommelier Diver (his medal and MBE to follow). What could possibly go wrong? Putin? We'll shit 'im.

See, if you'd have set this one up you'd have said summat along the lines of "here's your next teaser...."

We live INSIDE famous football stadium & it’s like having a private box…but when club got promoted it caused big problem | The Sun

was that part of their corporate package 😀

Aye Brisbane Road, 1972. Like it was the first time I went 12 years later. Scene on Saturday could not have been more different. Not sure them 3 monstrosities in the background are still there (but plenty of replacement monstrosities are, with more to come if that gigantic crane is owt to go by). That terrace behind the goals will be the one to our left, with a drummer and a few dozen Winwick's pretending to be Ultras.
