Technically, a grocer of the 1960-1969 decade would be a 1960s' grocer. So no.

If Abi goes on a weekend getaway it'll be while he's playing.

ESPN is 10 times better than that Setanta shite. No offensive colours and better pundits, Joe Royle, KK, Hiddink etc. No anti-City 'David Dunne' Craig Burley twat either.
Somerset - you remind me of a guy I know who used to say he couldn't afford Sky, then go down the pub every single Sunday and spend 50 quid. Get a subscription you tight bugger!!

Got Sky, just not the additional ESPN subscription - yes, too tight to pay for that! Will actually be down in your neck of the woods (Falmouth) with work for the Villa game, recommend any pubs to watch it in?
