None, what's proposed is an additional; 39th game.

Would that make Ji Calder the oldest player to have turned out in the Highland League, or indeede any other Scottish senior league, in modern times ?

My favourite old pouffe has become somewhat worn with an increasingly cracked leathery skin. Should I look for a younger model ?

I think that money played a more significant part than geography.

Crazy !

Very many congratulations.

Good grief, was that great night really the best part of a decade a decade ago ! Wonderful memories, reading the press and watching the media coverage in the days that followed was almost as good as the match itself.

Benny Green was one of the original characters who used to hang around with Tucker together with a fat lad by the name of Alan.

My current pet hate is the phrase " going forward".

There used to be a bakers in Muir of Ord that sold the most wonderful, slightly spicey, scotch pies. That would have been about 30 years ago and I suspect they are long gone now.

Cool used to be the opposite of warm. then it came to mean something else now, apparently, it's no longer cool to say cool so that the word has largely reverted to it's original meaning.

That reminds me of a story told to me by a young physiotherapist from Canada who had a spell working in Aberdeen. On her first day a young guy came in with a knee injury which reuired physio'. She asked him to remove his pants telling him she would be back in a moment. Seems she was rather shocked by his state of undress whe she returned and didn't make that particular mistake again. I also recall tittering as a 10 year old when the husband; Daryl ? in the Sitcom Bewitched made reference to his wife's cute fanny.

The BBC is to axe Grangehill after approximately 30 years. I was mid tenage when it started but nevertheless keenly followed the first two or three series of what was groundbreaking TV depicting life in an inner city comprehensive only slightly sanatised for early evening viewing. Up until then, apart from the sitcom " Please Sir" most schools featured on children's TV were distinctly upper class and not generally contemporary such as Billy Bunter or Just William. I don't suppose I've seen it for two decades or more but sad to see it's demise nevertheless.

40 years ago the word gay generally described a persons disposition rather than their sexual orientation whilt a green lobbyist was a person who was bold enough to paint, or more likely flock wallpaper, their hall in a lurid shade of lime rather than the ubiquitous magnolia. Isn't interesting how our language evolves ? What other examples are there of word or phrases changing their principal meanings over the years ?
