As did a diary in which I had noted down all the football games, with scorers and attendances detailed, that I had attended since my first one in September 1985.<br /><br />I also, in a fit of childish rage that I can't to this day explain, ripped up a signed photo of Clive Allen.Jameshttp://www.shrimperzone.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6702800010273076139.post-77667447582868184412012-04-15T23:26:26.302+01:002012-04-15T23:26:26.302+01:00We feel your pain...A whole page of South Korea...We feel your pain...A whole page of South Korea's finest are weeping from their twin stickers.

There was much, much more. <br /><br />I only recently discovered this and whilst she claims it was a mistake, I am not convinced. As a consequence we remain barely on speaking terms.Dougie Brimsonhttp://www.dougiebrimson.comnoreply@blogger.com
