I live in Spain and work on a Saturday morning and work on Monday.. might have to gamble and book a flight back Saturday and a late Sunday evening return/super early Monday..
I'll check if we're in the mix come pay day at the end of the month.
Annual holiday to Benalmadena. Gutted. Was at wemberleee last time. Tried to suggest cancelling the holiday...... didn't go well at all. ☹ Have started researching semis options.

Have booked my car into the Enfield Pageant on the 27th but think I’ll blow it out if we make it.
Is that the classic car show, what motor do you have?
Yes mate, I've got an MGB roadster.
I have a 1953 MGTD, do you do any shows in Kent ?
Nice. Usually do a few local shows. Bromley Pageant, Swale Club show at Sheppey, Bearsted. There used to be a lot more but many don’t run anymore. The MG Car club race day at Brands is good too. A couple of mates have classics too and we often just go for a drive on a Sunday morning and end up somewhere for breakfast (Eynsford, Teapot Island etc)

Am keeping 27 May and the four potential semi-final dates free. I'm having to resist a lot of pressure on the domestic front from my wife who wants to go away next month but, 20 years on from our triumph over Sunderland and 8 years after the loss to Swindon on penalties, I cannot countenance missing any of these games should we get that far. Who knows when the next such occasions may be ?
It doesn't help, of course, when you tacitly concede - just before Robinson's departure - that our play-off hopes are fast disappearing down the pan and then find yourself having to perform a major u-turn. A bit of a schoolboy error but an understandable one, given the spineless drivel being served up in the dying embers of Robbo's tenure.
our ruby wedding anniversary on 26th May and yes we are keeping it free, after all tradition says I buy the Lass a ruby and rubies are red - so there we are. Joking aside we are keeping the day free and having a few days away in a posh hotel the next week.
I have a quandary. I've agreed to go to my uncles 80th Birthday celebrations. It's at 2:30 on 27 May. Thing is it's a very small family gathering and I don't want to let him down. Don't know what to do for the best. I havent been all season apart from Rotherham so it might seem a bit hypocritical to jump on the band wagon just for this match.

Come on guys, lets get real here. We've got 7 games left only 2 of them are at home and one of those is against Blackburn. It aint gonna happen. But please bare in mind that I said quite confidently that Robinson was going nowhere, because quite frankly who else would employ him. We have so much to be thankful to Oxford for.
We've just beaten Plymouth and Rotherham so no reason why we should fear any of the other sides. Although it would be a big help if Blackburn are already promoted by the time they come to the Valley.
So much for the alliance with Blackpool and the dodgy owners club then. Their fans boycotted the play off final.
Eff that mate - with all the sh1t we've been served up over the last 4 years, a day out at Wembley is something I am not gonna miss - but lets get there first.
Absolutely kept it free. One of the side benefits of being in the prem was not having to explain why in late April I couldn't commit to a late May holiday. Came within a Nicky Bailey penalty of having to drive back from Cornwall 20 hours after arriving

Where am I playing football, you ask?
At...The Valley!
