Quite a few tours then. We are all proud and grateful for what you and others in the forces do, but even more at this time of the year. Take care fellow Owl. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soldierboyblue Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 One what always sticks in my mind is watching the Hirsty 114mph shot whilst in Hillsborough (the other one in Northern Ireland). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
db_leeds_owl Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 I watched the play-off second leg in the sports bar of Excellence Club, Playa Mujeres in Mexico - the hotel I was in for my honeymoon...two hours before a romantic dinner on the beach. I sulked for the entire meal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lythamowl Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 For the second leg of the play offs against brighton we were helping a mate who was racing at monaco historic gp that weekend and he bet me 50 euros I would never find anywhere to watch it. Irish bar in Nice had it live so that was a a good earner. His gearbox grenaded on the 5th lap so it was a bad weekend all round for him.......

darra Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Not sure if this counts. Was in Cairo airport in 1984 waiting to fly home. It was about midnight and it came over the tannoy that my flight had been delayed by 3 to 4 hours. Bloody great I thought. Then a big screen TV came to life and I heard the sound of Brian Moore. Well at least I thought I can watch a bit of footy to pass the time. Then says Brian tonight we have highlights of a match from earlier this season (?) its QPR vs Sheffield Wednesday. IIRC we lost 3-2 . Not a great result but hey it passed the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

airborne_rat_of_s6 Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Know it is not where you watched them, but bought a carved wooden SWFC plaque off a bloke in the Kenyan bush 300 miles north of Nairobi in a tiny camp called archers post. We were playing shuffle under Irvine at the time so managed to negotiate a cut price deal, knowing the battle groups had been through and his chances of selling it were limited. Told him it is a Yorkshire tradition to haggle for a good price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
