Though technically,there does'nt look much room left on that train at all..Bit of a squeeze.Or er,that's probably the idea.

here's something really funny Boaty:-

"Abel Xavier is close to agreeing a contract with Middlesbrough after serving a 12-month drugs ban."

matthias

You are so.. wrong Mat, just ask Me, Ness or Lorraine next time, you are very welcome to join us. It was a shame you weren't at Wolves, Blackpool or Wembley!! I missed you x

Actually Spotnick, I asked you if you were able to understand Tim. I should know cause I wasn't drunk at that point, honest. We were just on our way to The Globe when we first met you

Anyway....

1. Spotnick is unable to understand me when I speak English which makes him a false nodder really...... tee hee

2. Wolverhampton is a shithole

:p

1 thing i found on this giddy tour is that love is found in the east & the west but the vikings love for nEW oRdEr is THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

1. That NO are the best band on the planet
2. That Vikings are the utterly crazy and yet at the same time some of the sanest people around
3. That I should have started doing this a long, long time ago
4. That I really hope there'll be more gigs soon so I can do it all over again
5. That there are some nice people from Luton
6. That signing every post with three kisses gets you an awful lot of kisses in rel life, mostly from blokes... Must be that Gay Train...

1. New Order can still produce a ****ing great gig/night after 30 years together and the band more matey with each other than ever before. 2. Organising Blue Saturday was a top event and excellent work all those who pulled it off. 3. Flight, Digital, Re:Order, Pottsy and in particular Hooky being top blokes for giving up their time to do Blue Saturday, 4. Finally seeing Hooky's DJ set which could blow off many a up themselves superstar DJ off the decks - love to get his JD/NO bootlegs. 5. Shaking Hooky's hand and getting my Wembley and Blue Saturday tickets signed by him. 6. £1.30 a pint of Carling at the ULU - Winner! 7. Meeting fellow NOOLers - Luton Order, Al Jarvo, Snorrimon, Ricardo, Mrs Disco, Tim/oldmonkey, Spotnick, lucyjane, Mrs Disco, Ricardo, Ness, and everyone else who were all top people. 8. The Vikings - mad, bad and dangerous to know but a loveable bunch all the same. 9. I should have recovered my password for the forum sooner then I could have met you mad bunch NOOLers sooner. 10. Bournemouth was a good/gig night despite the gig finishing at 10:30 and not being the special '30th Anniversary' celebration Alan Wise promised us. 11. The look on the couple's faces when they showed up with their 'special' Bournemouth tickets to do the meet and greet with the band only for security to say the guy they need to speak to wasn't in the building - priceless. 12. Hearing and seeing the soundcheck at Bournemouth before being chased by 'The Sarge'. 13. The bar price at the after show party at The Landmark in Bournemouth was extortionate but a top night all the same. 14. Not knowing as an exiled Northerner in London that Bournemouth is as far away as Birmingham. 15. Making it to the front row at Bournemouth and Wembley. 16. The security at the Liverpool gig - steroid addled ****ers who changed from seemingly nice guys to 'Incredible Hulks' in minutes! 17. Hooky caring about the fans being treated like **** by the security at the Liverpool gig and having his outburst at them - brilliant! 18. Hacienda classics like Voodoo Ray, Pacific State, Hallelujah, Go, Papua New Guinea, Stakker Humanoid, Belfast, Loaded, Hashim, Strings Of Life, Can You Feel It, Know How etc. are still great club tunes nearly 20 years on. 19. Regretting not going to the Hacienda before it closed. 20. Wanting to go to more gigs - Glasgow, Newcastle, Blackpool, Wolverhampton and more exotically Brazil, but having the cash or the holidays to do so.
