Loads of people are going in and out of Market Square on a daily basis. Well, the weather’s good, and there’s water to splash around in [...]]]> http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/08/life-brians-statue-phone-hacking/feed/ 1 http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/05/life-of-brians-statue-language-of-love/ http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/05/life-of-brians-statue-language-of-love/#comments Tue, 03 May 2011 10:52:52 +0000 Andy Szpuk http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/?p=4501 I don't think I've ever seen so many Union Jacks! They're all around Market Square, and all the shops nearby have got them sellotaped right across their windows and doorways. If you're a fan of red, white and blue then the City Centre is the place for you right now. Everyone's all in a glow 'cause of the Royal wedding. Y'can't beat a big wedding to get everyone together. Marriage is a wonderful institution [...]]]> http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/05/life-of-brians-statue-language-of-love/feed/ 0 http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/04/life-brians-statue-hello-sunshine/ http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/04/life-brians-statue-hello-sunshine/#comments Fri, 15 Apr 2011 14:13:53 +0000 Andy Szpuk http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/?p=4441 It was only a minute ago when this feller walked past me chewing gum. Then he spat it out onto the pavement. I felt like jumping down off my plinth and boxing his ears!! I hate that bloody stuff! It gets everywhere. I remember last summer I had so much of it stuck onto different parts of my anatomy, it felt like I was made of bloody blu-tack [...]]]> http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/04/life-brians-statue-hello-sunshine/feed/ 0 http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/03/life-brian-clough-statue-getting-things-done/ http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/03/life-brian-clough-statue-getting-things-done/#comments Fri, 18 Mar 2011 13:24:29 +0000 Andy Szpuk http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/?p=4365 Well, now the weather’s getting a bit better, y’get all kind of folk popping out of the woodwork. Y’see some fellers with shorts on, even though it’s a bit early in the year. These days, the fashion is to wear ‘em quite long - down to the knees [...]]]> http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/03/life-brian-clough-statue-getting-things-done/feed/ 0 http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/02/life-brian-clough-statue-handbags/ http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/02/life-brian-clough-statue-handbags/#comments Wed, 09 Feb 2011 14:06:40 +0000 Andy Szpuk http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/?p=4241 They’re at it all the bloody time! Footballers love to get their handbags out and swing ‘em at each other! Most weekends, y’hear about it, whether it’s Kevin Nolan, Diaby of Arsenal or whoever, they all reckon they’re hard men. Not in my book though [...]]]> http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/02/life-brian-clough-statue-handbags/feed/ 2 http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/01/brian-clough-statue-haggis-neeps-tatties/ http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/01/brian-clough-statue-haggis-neeps-tatties/#comments Wed, 26 Jan 2011 19:43:13 +0000 Andy Szpuk http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/?p=4176 I remember the days when the Scots fellers in my Forest team would celebrate Burns Night. Haggis, neeps and tatties. That’s what they went on about all day long. Sometimes, I wished they’d get together and write a book, and call it: ‘101 Things to do With a Dead Sheep’. Then maybe they’d bloody well shut up about it [...]]]> http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/01/brian-clough-statue-haggis-neeps-tatties/feed/ 0 http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/01/life-brian-clough-statue-let-it-snow/ http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/01/life-brian-clough-statue-let-it-snow/#comments Thu, 06 Jan 2011 11:03:00 +0000 Andy Szpuk http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/?p=4097 The white stuff’s coming down again, and I’m the only one around here who’s not got a big thick coat on, or a woolly bobble hat. This old green sweatshirt of mine has always kept me warm – and now it’s immortalised in bronze, it’s better than ever [...]]]> http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2011/01/life-brian-clough-statue-let-it-snow/feed/ 0 http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2010/12/life-brian-clough-statue-fancy-dress/ http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2010/12/life-brian-clough-statue-fancy-dress/#comments Mon, 20 Dec 2010 13:38:02 +0000 Andy Szpuk http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/?p=4041 I can’t believe it! I saw a young feller walk past me the other day wearing a bit of cloth round his neck with Arsenal FC written on it. I’ve got nowt against people supporting whatever club they choose, but I couldn’t work out what that bloody thing was round his neck. I thought to myself, What’s wrong with a good old fashioned scarf, eh?]]> http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2010/12/life-brian-clough-statue-fancy-dress/feed/ 0 http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2010/11/life-brian-clough-statue-warming-the-bench/ http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2010/11/life-brian-clough-statue-warming-the-bench/#comments Thu, 25 Nov 2010 17:39:55 +0000 Andy Szpuk http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/?p=3969 It was just like being back at a football match again! There I was, surrounded by lots of people, of all different ages, most of them with banners in their hands, protesting about cuts to Public Services. I ended up waving a Socialist Workers Party banner around ’cause some bloody clown stuck it in my hand [...]]]> http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2010/11/life-brian-clough-statue-warming-the-bench/feed/ 0 http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2010/11/life-brian-clough-statue-light-my-fire/ http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2010/11/life-brian-clough-statue-light-my-fire/#comments Mon, 08 Nov 2010 19:50:13 +0000 Andy Szpuk http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/?p=3910 There’s been some sparks flying in the last few days! I’ve had rockets exploding above my Old Big Ead for the last 72 hours non-stop. There have been some lovely splashes of colour – I’ve been dazzled. Of course, in the world of football, the fireworks never stop [...]]]> http://www.ltlf.co.uk/forest/2010/11/life-brian-clough-statue-light-my-fire/feed/ 0
