"There's no better feeling than shaking hands with Prince Albert". Hope you won a fiver for that one Martin.

In other news, it appears (from my patchy memory) that Doncaster are the first team to reach Division II of English football after having played in the Conference since automatic promotion from that division was introduced in 1987ish.

Things I learnt this weekend were mainly to do with not grabbing rocks by the end that's been in the fire for two hours.

Anyone got any good trivia relating to Metallica? I need tested.
