Yes--Smilers is a great place to sit and watch world go by---i do that outside Colombos and another good place is the sea wall in the square-----non-singing Welshman--so its not Tom Jones then--------
another famous face maybe?
Nos dda?
Would that be --see you--or something similar?
Youre giving us lessons in Welsh Croeso--very interesting--think it may possibly be the oldest language of these islands?
After all --you are the original Ancient Brits I believe----
If it wasnt fof the Romans --we'd probably all be Welsh speaking--quite fascinating

Bore dda - good day!

Definitely NOT Tom Jones!

Thats a shame Croeso---I rather like the "Jones " boy--voice I mean,which gets better with age!
Arent you going to congratulate us on our super win over Oz? Or were you waving a didgerdoo(how d'you spell that?)
Dont want to rub it in--but doesnt Jonny Wilkinson remind you somewhat of that Welsh wizard of the oval ball--J J Williams

Bore dda ---have a nice one

Me again - if you look at my posting of yesterday I have already congratulated England on their well earned & deserved victory. Anyway again - Well Done - as mentioned previous I sincerely hope the the whole England 'set up' receives credit & not just JW.

Looking at the front page of the 'Wales on Sunday' newspaper its boasting on the front page that its a completely ' Gloat Free Paper' How very sad - after the tragic events of last week in Turkey its good to see people with a smile on their faces.

Regards

Apologies Croeso-----I was so overcome by our actually "winning" something that I failed to read your message properly-and thanks for the extra "well done " for our "Dads Army"!
and as you say--nice to have something to smile about after the terrible events in Istanbul---God rest the ones killed and give comfort to the bereaved.

Best wishes--Ellie

Hey Croeso..thanks

The Welsh have been very generous with their good wishes for the England team, as have Ireland, but then that's the difference between football and rugby supporters I guess..
Well done boys....all of them, not just Wilko...will never forget Jason Robinson's try...what a little corker that guy is...and did you see him tackle that Wallaby????? He's small in stature but has a GIANT'S heart. God bless 'em all!!! I hope they get the full ticker-tape parade that they deserve, considering the crap they've had to put up with fron the Australian fans and press. It makes the victory that much sweeter.

(btw, I was born and raised in Oz, of English parents, and I've lived in this country since 1978. This country has been good to me so, win or lose, I was proud to be supporting England yesterday!!!!

Isn't that an amazing coincidence, both Charlton supporters visiting the same travel web site

Maddi

p.s. don't feel any particular compunctuion in taking the mickey out of me - I support Torquay!!!!!!!!

Hi Maddi - You may jest, but I will have you know that due to huge weekly demand, and expected qualification for European competetions, there are plans to expand the Addicks ground to seat 40,000!

40,000 - Would that be all in one go, or over the course of a season!!

Guest · Post by **Guest** » Mon Nov 24, 2003 7:25 pm

Two goes, one to 37000 (I think)and then the rest. Maddi, we have a Torquay fan in the office and a BBC fantasy league for the company, he always does well as did your lot the weekend, nice win. Pity they are not more consistant. Good luck for the rest of season. Charlton will need it as well once we get over our "nosebleed" situation. Mike

Do Charlton currently fill the stadium capacity? Is it about 30,000 now? Do you think they would get 40,000 every week? Pardon my ignorance, but what is their 'nosebleed' situation.
