    I've said before that I marginally prefer the Alex to the Brunswick which would make it a Saddo's pub by definition.

    I look upon the royal wedding and their clan as being very similar to footbore, a total irrelevance that is grossly over inflated by the media. I now know who is involved in the cup final so I'll expect the hordes of morons making a nuisance when I return from the West Midlands, or maybe not as someone told me that the only Mancunian that supports the red team is Terry Christian.

    ....from Manchester but marauding hordes of them from every other WCML town and city.

    I must admit that at the moment I'm finding the wedding even more boring than the cup final, something I didn't think could possibly happen.

    Watch the wedding with a glass of champagne then watch the football with a couple of pints of London Pride . It is called Great Britain for a reason. Enjoy.

    I am really hoping the Kingston Workmens Club And Institute doesn't have the telly on during the beer festival tomorrow,
    If it does I shall ignore. I'm firmly in Aqualungs camp here, however the cup finals a different matter, come on you blues, (said without conviction).
