I know. I was asking the question of Durham after his question above.
Fantastic area to live in - or is it?[/quote]
I think it is but it might not be everyones 'cup of tea'.

Sorry - I popped out and missed most of this!
I live in a place called Netherley, which is just south of Aberdeen City Centre (about 6 miles) and just a little north of Stonehaven - so I think I beat Highland in terms of how far north we both are!
I think he will get better scenery, but more midges!
As for Oxford City, I think Garry Parker was still playing for us when I played there. I used to be into speedway as well and the Leicester supporters club (even though the speedway had long since finished at Leicester) played the Oxford speedway supporters as a warm-up match for a speedway riders match.
A weird experience as there were 2,000 or so in the crowd and they put out live commentary on the game over the tanoy! They had 3 or 4 current Oxford City players in their team and I always remember looking into their dressing room seeing a number of them snorting a line at half-time (must have thought they were pros). One of them went nuts in the second half and got sent-off!

Do you still watch it?
I had a go in the early '80's and ended up breaking my leg in three places!
Steve Regeling and Rolf Gramstad were good mates and I had a few laughs with Les Collins. I only watch it on sky nowadays as the nearest track is 2.5 hours drive away.

Good 
I had one go in Newcastle and broke my leg! The nurses were very good to me when they found out I did it riding a speedway bike mind you!
Just had some good mates that rode for Leicester and followwed them for 10 years until they packed in. I sometimes went to see Steve Regeling ride for Kings Lynn, Ipswich, Exeter and Middlesborough once the Lions had closed down.

Oh bugger! They go and cancel a derby game for some glorified Anglo-Italian cup game - will they ever get it right! ;-)
