From the Baggies site…..
Is it my eyes failing me or is there a serious kit clash issue in the WBA v QPR game?! Really struggling to tell them apart from the camera angle.
Nick, Aylesbury
The Baggies are in their usual blue and white stripes while the R's are in a light purple shirt. |

I was attending a wedding party in the same hotel that Swansea were in last night.
The floors for the ‘ballers’ were above a wedding that went on till midnight and was very very loud.
Does the team think this might have an effect on Swanseas performance? [Post edited 15 Aug 15:27]

With cameras, a perfect adage is thus………
Forget the pixels, get the light right, and above all get good glass.
One of my lenses is so sharp it will make your eyes bleed.
For those out there it’s a 300mm Canon lens, with a fixed body. This not only is a perfect lens, it helps you practice your aperture and fstop balance wonderfully.
Even when you leave things on auto, the lens is a wonderful cosseting milchfrau of a mother loving lens, moriarity! |

Have we started digging down yet, or have we decided on building the British Maracana?
Boy I’m looking forward to seeing us play in a 50,000 stadium that’s all ours.
Get Tukel in and enjoy the great defensive tactics, while half a dozen Irish builders, bolstered by Chinese workers, throw up the new stadium in double quick time. |

Alas, at 62, I think my chance of seeing England win a World Cup final has gone.
Cannot understand last nights match. We started well, but needed to go into shit house mode, rather than go into ‘lay on the beach’ mode. |

I think the Baltic was great because I got to see Moscow and St.Pete.
The Caribbean was good, as was Asia.
But out of them all, South America wins hands down…..
Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay etc etc
Totally epic. |

Been on well over 15 cruises including…..
The Baltic , that included St.Petersburgh, Moscow, Finland, Sweden etc etc, all from Tilbury of all places.
Done the Med, The Caribbean, South America, Asia, China and Tokyo.
I’d recommend them like a shot.
My next one will be a return to Cuba as it’s just fantastic there. |

True story…..
Back in the day, when ‘the Duke’ was staying in the hotel by the chain bridge in Marlow, the guys trying to make the Tower Bridge jump, were making a scale model (at Pinewood) of the bridge.
The car used was a Corgi model, sprayed yellow for the film.
Tower Bridge was perfect in every way, and was modelled with the bridge up for the film.
Come the day, I was on set watching the guys literally do what we kids at school did, clasp your hand over the car, bring your hand back, and propel the model forwards and up the ramp (filming was done using a high speed camera so that it would look more ‘authentic’ when moving at a scale speed.
Now, the yellow capri just didn’t want to ‘play ball’ as when it got to take to the air, it would tip left, right, nose down, ass down, etc
Sometimes, a door would open, and it didn’t matter which, as the capri wasn’t fussy.
The Capri would sometimes hit one of the towers, but you couldn’t guarantee to miss the towers every time.
After 4 days, (and on the very day I was on set) the camera rolled, the lighting was perfect, as I saw the yellow capri take to the air, and come down perfectly onto the other ramp.
All were happy.
As they had no further need for the bridge model, I was offered it, but refused. Mum would have gone spare seeing it in the house, so it was left to be got rid of by whomever threw these things into a skip.
However, the yellow capri, was offered to me, and me being a complete tool, I took the stupid stance of ‘I don’t play with toys) and rejected the kind offer.
Needless to say, I never refused anything from Pinewood or Bray again. [Post edited 15 Aug 12:05]
