Talking of busing people to the match I remember, in the fifties and sixties certainly, a long row of buses outside Belle Vue after the match, ready to take people to town.
Anyone any idea when this ended and did they go further than town?
I always wanted to catch one, but dad made me walk as we lived near Kirkgate station.

Well I will miss BV when shes gone thats for sure,get train from outwood and get off sandal & agbrigg stop for a jar at the Duke then onto BV.Plan for NM would be walk into stanley call at Travs or Wheatsheaf have a jar then onto NM.As it is NM is not as easy to get to but that wont put me off going unless NM has a running track round it and your sat miles away.Always felt its a shame the club could not get some of the local asian people supporting the club at BV.Yes some will be lost when the club move from BV but some will be gained and the long term for the club is to get families following the club.The move to summer rugby helped in getting more families to follow RL lets face it nothing worse for putting a 7/8 year old off some thing than to be stood there in the freezing cold.This is where NM will make the experiance better than BV but I for one will shed a tear or two when we leave the old girl behind.As for Cas Im glad they have someone who tells it like it is and hope the best for them and nothing would warm the heart better than seeing Wakey and Cas in the top four year on year.Well alright then Wakey doing Cas in the grand final or challenge cup would be the best heart warmer.

I remember this to a lesser extent in the 70s but ultimately this died when the average family had a car. I remember on my street there being 3 cars across 10 houses. Now every house has at least 2. No one will be using the buses so no need to put them on.
Now it's more important to get parking space.

Quote: financialtimes "In Lanzarote it's most likely to be Dorada, Tropical or Estrella rather than San Miguel Would have said the same but the time i was there a couple of years back san mig was much more prevelant than before as they were undercutting the other breweries. Mahou was also more readily available with the ones you mentioned, whilst cruzcampo had almost disappeared. That said i don't particularly mind any, bring it on!

Kind of drifted off topic here! It will happen in the next fortnight i reckon.

And they all went to a place called "Duplicate", never did find out where that was.
