So, the seasons over (for us anyway) and it's one we all really want to forget......aside from keeping an eye on new signings and developments at the club in the close season what will you be doing between now and January ??? (pre-season warm up's)

Me...........I'm putting up the sign.................."Gone Fishing"

The regional comp here has just started, so a few weeks more RL in the pipeline, together with the 4 nations games in Wellington, Rotorua and Auckland...potentially the final in Oz......2 weeks hiliday in Fiji....christmas on the beach......and of course...continued posts regarding the shambles that is QRL Marketing

Something new to look forward to then

Plenty of football for me through to February and beyond, and hopefully one last day's cricket at The Oval tomorrow or Friday.

I’m looking forward to next season’s fixtures being released so I can plan some weekends up north and tie in some National League games and football matches with watching Quins. I’ve also got a weekend in Cumbria next month for the Garry Purdham memorial match.

Suffer some more with the Browns. I don't have to adjust my standards by watching teams of different standards / chances of success. Also I pay out about the same as a Quins season ticket to watch all the games on the internet. So it really evens out the year.

like Fan50 the gone fishing sign will be up(only i will be

).. and now have to troll round bluewater with the wife window shopping..



Oh ye and i forgot she can something else on sky on fri/sat nights now until new season starts.

I most definitely will be fishing as well ! - Rod, check - Bait, check, - Hooks, check, -Rod Licence, errmm now where did I put that !!!! Basingstoke Canal here I come.....!!!

Oh ye Licence thanks for reminding me. like you im not sure where i put it.

only ever sticklebacks in there mate, or was in the 70's along with the cars, bikes, and trolleys

EA Bailliffs are tightening up !!!

Much improved so I'm told, either that or Gold Valley

I plan to get down to London Welsh on a reasonably regular basis.

Probably. Last years ideas obviously weren't as good as 5,000 oyster cards and a video........so I must try harder

You have so much to do in NZ Gutters, we will understand completely if you can't fit us in!



The Skolars friendly will be here before you know it but meantime, I will be riding my neddy a bit more (fat little swine needs the exercise), watching the odd QuinsRU game starting this week, catching a few Bromley and Welling games and maybe a few race meetings including the great Beer festival meeting at Ascot on 24th September



And then there's the bleedin C word to contend with...

Grand final with Listy et al in October. After that, god knows. I move back to London in December so a couple of weekends will be taken up househunting then moving again.

Going to the grand final (along with visiting the folks), I'll make the Wallington beer festival for the first time in about 5 years because it doesn't clash with GF this year, then I'm not sure. I've been saying for about 7 years that I'll go and watch a game of chavball at Whyteleafe FC, but seeing as they're now a 10 minute drive away instead of a 10 minute walk away I'll probably put it off for another 7 years. Maybe I'll go and watch some union at Warligham RUFC, if only for an excuse to go for a beer with a mate (he's a Quins supporter too). But my wife and daughter will keep me occupied with a million and one things till the Capital Challenge comes around.

Ooh ! I forgot about the Wallington Beer Festival - a 5 minute bus ride or a 20 minute stagger from home

grand final, internationals, NFL, ice hockey, soccer, bit of yawnion, other stuff.

Grand final, Season ticket at Quins RU(first ever!)

I will hibernate. Hope for the best and dream of a team winning more home games than losing playing attractive rugby and a club that communicates with it's growing number of fans. Well I can dream can't I? Oh I dream that the Skolars get their act together and continue their improvement! I may well take take in games by those jolly green giants of the non-league football scene: Hendon and Salford City, no doubt jinxing them both!
