If you have tried the rest, buy from the best!

Me, resigned for a guest appearance!

Got mine in the post this morning. Be warned, the back cover sent a shudder down my spine.

You resigned from a proper job just to make  a one-off appearance selling H&V. That's a risky move in the current economic climate.

Exaggeration in the extreme, he left a pack of tesco value burgers on your pillow , nothing more! :D

Where will you be plying your trade mark?

Since switching from a pre match drink (or four) in The Vine to The Aston Social I now body swerve around the God bothering pamphlet wavers to buy from the guy outside the cemetary instead of the guy opposite.

Really enjoyed Brian Green's photo memories and Stacy Murphy's take on media relations, so far.

Dave's in his mid to late 80s ?

Wow, he doesn't look that old. Late 70s yes, but not in his 80s.

Very good article in this edition: "the weight of history". Certainly food for thought there. Who wrote it?

I've wanted to do a piece I've had in mind for a couple of years but haven't summoned the will to write about Villa. In all honesty I haven't read the last 3 issues. Can't face them.

What got me was that the back four (possibly even goalie as well) are better than our current defence.

There was an article in the last issue about possibility of losing to Bradford so I refused to read it. Now that that has come to be I still won't open it because of that article!

He didn't say how many copies he's purchased. If he hasn't bought one since 1996 he could still be lucky.

Made a sale to a regular customer who buys from Greg. He said he was hoping his change of seller would prompt a change in our fortunes. Hope I see him when we play Manchester City!

I thought the latest H&V was excellant. Good stuff from Stuart Griffin, Alex Russon, Simon Page, Stacy Murphy, Andrew Robins and Jon Follows. My favourite though was 'How do you solve a problem called the Villa' by Alex Berwick. Balanced analysis along with some grounded optimism. It would have been the best thing in there if one of my 'fives' hadn't been included.

I don't normally type this style of post. I like it. I am now going to e-mail TV choice magazine and tell them what a breath of fesh air 'Call the midwife' is to the schedules that are usually full of violence and reality shows. Then fire one off to The Sun to say how much better the world would be if girls admired the likes of Kate Middleton rather than Katie Price.

Oi..

I'd been ill over the weekend and felt lousy. Added to that, I was soaked by the time that I got to Leeg.

With it being a new edition day, Greg had the gate spot, which meant that Leeg couldn't hide out under the overhang. I wasn't going to provide security in the rain.

Because I bought on "new issue" day and sat in the TR, I always used to buy from Greg (or occasionally from the Head Dave at away games).

That is, until a certain other seller lured me away with his chatter about Electronic Music.
