Gordon Buchanan seems to be the real deal to me. His work in remote areas filming wild, dangerous animals or living with Tribesmen in the back of beyond is quite mind blowing.
I recently enjoyed his films of the Snow Wolf family and the trip to the far North on a reindeer sleigh to film the Northern Lights - quite spectacular.
Went up to London for a rare trip to the Office yesterday
Got back to St. Pancras that evening, and of course the trains back down to Strood were f**ked because a van had tried to go under a low bridge down by Teynham and wasnt able to manage it - Its like the world knew I was going up there, and decided to give me a trip down memory lane as to how frustrating it is trying to commute
Standing on the concourse I watched a shit load of people walk from Platform 11, round to Platform 13 to wait for the next train and there is me thinking... I wont stand a chance to get on THAT train!! - However I'm also watching the boards, as its saying that the train on Platform 11 is delayed not cancelled, which surprised me as it was delayed about 40mins by this point.
Then comes an announcement saying that said delayed train was at Stratford and would be arriving shortly, so I thought... "F**k it, I'm going to go stand on Platform 11 and wait and see what happens" - Train comes in, we all board (Everyone rushes round from Platform 13) - I even managed to get a seat!!
There’s still time yet that it may occur even if it is 31+ years later and I’ll be coming right back to haunt you from about 1996 cos you’ve just jinxed it and I’ll have moved on to another life if that happens
I wasn't there for Sporting Lisbon, and I don't remember that other stuff happening. I was there for their opening league game though. They got stuffed by Southend.

I think it could be very useful if you're working out a percentage in your head, it's a nice quick way of validating your answer.
Must be the jarred stuff though, not the powdered crap you get at the match that's full of additives.
