Re The Mersey Monday rubbish it was good to see Gareth make his 750 appearance in all comps. The commentator said he was 22 games behind Giggs' record of premier league appearances. So even if he starts the rest of the games this season he will not reach that milestone.

Hopefully he will be good for another season in the top flight.

I took my sons to Barcelona at the weekend. What a wonderful experience. I think we'll look back on the team as an era defining squad. Also beautiful city and managed to get 4 seats from club website no bother. If you haven't done it yet, I suggest you do.
Drink anything nice?

Nice city. Pity about the druggies and hookers.
Do you know any large cities that don't have these?

You can't move for druggies and hookers at the bingo.

I was fortunate enough to be in Madrid a couple of weeks ago. Went to see Real play Deoprtivo. Gil had a hand in both their goals, always looked a threat in the attacking third. Such a shame he doesn't have the physical ability to be successful here as he is very talented.

It's all I remember about my visits to Barcelona, the druggies and hookers.

The only thing I can remember about Barcelona is that the Neu Camp seats were covered in bird shit.

It's not a particularly large city, and how on Earth is one supposed to find drugs if not for 'druggies' or hookers?

And how do you buy hooks if there are no hookers around?
