@wrexham a sarcastic slow clap for the idiot Audi driver who literally parked 6 inches behind my car on King St. A good job my Son was there to 'spot' my 7 point manoeuvre to escape. There was at least 4 foot of parking bay behind the Audi. WHY risk being knocked?
All set up for dinner service and looking forward to welcoming you back this evening.
All done safely and with social distancing measures in place.
See you all soon 😁

his own home brew aboard an away day down to AFC Wimbledon. It got cancelled due to poor weather but that barrel was soon empty. A great laugh, an argumentative bugger, but a big hearted soul who lived for those matchdays.
RIP Carl Tunnah. Another proper #wxmafc character taken before his time. He was 62. He adored the club and was often one of the most vocal supporters, whether on the bus to away games, on the terraces or making a forthright point. He liked a few ales and even brought (continued)
