Shall we take a trip...

The strangest thing just happened at work. I was in the goods in area skiving when a lorry pulled up and we started unloading it. The driver glanced at me and did a double take, I looked at him and did the same...turns out he's from Byker and we used to play football together now and then about 30 years ago!!

I can't for the life of me remember his name but we recognised each other straight away - small world eh?

Was it the kid who used to always go in goal that got chinned off fat Kev down the Spires Lane field?

I don't think so - there was two of them - little blonde kids. It was the oldest one I saw, he always had a bit of a hangdog expression (like muttley!).

If he comes back I'll ask him his name - I'm sure they lived down Spires Lane way.
