Turn up the volume for full effect. If you've never stood around one of these, it really pounds you.

for me personally, there are several -
seeing Colin Mcrae and then Richard Burns winning the World Rally Championship.
Going to Twickenham to see Cornwall win the Rugby County Championship.
Joining thousands of other Plymouth Argyle fans in Plymouth to see the open top bus when we won promotion.
Best wishes

Virgin media email; tried logging on, no joy, seems like Virgin have teamed up with O2 and require one to set up a second email address to include O2; I've tried numerous ways to try and satisfy this using variations of my name and initials using their on line registration pages, so filled in a complaints form, but heaven knows how they will reply if I can't log on to email!

Thanks for this Mick,

Although the opening hours are a bit limited... I think I need to plan in advance for a visit during my next trip here.....

Cheers,

Colin

Dan Burns goal in the Carabao Cup Final  this year for me. A lad from Blyth scored Newcastle's first goal at Wembley for 25 years and got us on the way to our first domestic trophy for 70 years.
After 50 odd years I'd honestly given up hope of the toon winning anything!
Cheers Colin

Thanks. And to crewearpley40 for the PMs. I was aware of the 47/7s but not the piping, and never heard of trombones in conjunction with them!
