Like me, you probably held that "little bundle" in your arms at some stage and lived long enough to receive parcels from Play.com and Next which you never personally ordered........................"Dad, can I borrow your card............"

newyorkcanary 14 Posted August 9, 2008 Congrats Arrdee and soon to be congrats Cam. My girls are 2 and 4 and I can''t even begin to think about them getting married. My 4 year old has a crush on a 9 year old in her day camp and it is adorable. I don''t know how adorable it will be 10 years form now, though.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arrdee 2 Posted August 9, 2008 [quote user="Berkshire Canary"]First of all thank you to everyone for their encouragement and their picks, I have spent most of the morning looking at the possibilities and, after changing my mind more times than I care to remember I have eventually come to a decision..... <Drum Roll please> [:D] Celtic v St. Mirren - Home WinNorthampton v Cheltenham - Home WinLincoln v Rotherham - Home WinNorthwich v Cambridge - Away WinQPR v Barnsley - Home WinSheffield Wed v Burnley - Away Win Apologies to anyone who''s picks didn''t make the final selection, there were some great suggestions and it was tough to narrow them down to a final 6, here''s hoping we can start the season as we mean to go on, good luck everyone. [:P]OTBC!!! [/quote] Yes you lovely old Pickers the bet is on and it is....Celtic--------------1-5.....Newyork, Trent.Northampton------10-11..Cosmic, Nutty.Lincoln-------------15-8....Camul.Cambridge utd------6-4......Hissing Sid.O.P.R.--------------8-13....City AngelBurnley--------------9-4......Berkshire C.Which will pay £864-46p thanks to Dixmar Racing who are true Norwich City fans , you can see quite a bit of difference with what the big boys would pay, just the £610 , perhaps thats why they are big boys . Thank you all you lovely old Pickers and of course the wonderful Berkshire , well done you lovely old boy . Good luck to you all .[Y] ....arrdee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buncey 1 Posted August 9, 2008 Lincoln lost as well...Difficult week to be picker, unlucky Berkshire!According to my calculations, so far there were 10 good naps this week (of course not including sunday naps). So a very difficult week! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Our two have been very lucky (I think) - they are out there still, or so we think.I have yet to experience the emotion of seeing them officially married yet although that is coming for both of them but I watched both of them being born (in terms of blood and guts it reminded me of League Two) and I watched Number Two receiving her degree at Trinity, Dublin, during two hours of Latin pronouncements and Number One playing Beethoven''s Seventh Symphony in Spain and receiving a stand up "call" from the conductor (the equivalent of Man/Woman of the Match).I suppose a wedding might be more emotional......I have to "give her away" don''t I? As far as I am concerned they are both loan players.................. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ivana_rubyatitz 6 Posted August 10, 2008 Bad luck BC, with no form to go on it was always going to be a stinker of a week to draw. As Ray says though, it could be worse - I personally am seriously dischuffed as I got 6 out of 7 on my own list (bloody Derby let me down) and my local bookie is now £3 better off (ain''t I the high roller!)
