5 years after 1993.

Saw a 1993 Fiat Punto on the road today.

My Punto fell apart after ten years' use.

Stream of consciousness writing was already old in 1998

Was in Tenerife when the news broke that Gazza had been dropped. Nearly fell off the sun lounger, soon forgot about it, mind.

Loved Soul Train.

First year of university was gonna bloody change the world

Living with 8 other guys in a house.

"Forgettable Olympic year."

Due to there being no Olympics in 1998?

Rush Hour movie

I fingered my first bird (kind of)

Abou sent off at WHL, my yid mate in the west stand said a chair was lobbed at him from the upper tier.

Newcastle away 3.0 WIN and couldn't believe what I was hearing as I bought my new Subbuteo TEAMS.

Re: 1998

I imagine Canadians like Norwegians prefer the winter Olympics Mr Burns you pillock.

Because we don't get any snow, we generally couldn't give two fucks about it!


As for 98? Can't remember much as I had a drinking problem, though met a couple of birds in Edinburgh and arranged to stay at her pub in Newcastle when we played up there. Lovely 3-0 win and a cracking night in a proper shit hole of a pub.

Heaven.

Re: 1998

Grumps,

Yes I gathered that, actually I think I prefer the Winter Olympics myself. Thought they were only a year apart though.

Funnily enough I was in Newcastle NSW when we beat Newcastle 3-0.

Don't necessarily prefer, there are sports we compete well in during both but the big names are winter (often pro) athletes.

They used to be the same year and then went so there are an Olympiad of some sort every 2 years. Easy to remember as its the same the World Cup and Euros.

Re: 1998

General downhill and slalom skiing bores the hell out of me, but I do like the quick ski races where 4 people compete at the same time on either ski's or snowboards.

Ice Hockey is proper shit as well unless you're bought up on it - I imagine.
