I have been to Ashton Gate a couple of times to watch us play - first time in the away end but the second time in the 2024 season my daughter, who lives in Bristol, got tickets in the Bristol family stand, which was up close and personal. That was just after the debacle between Wolves and West Brom (I think) fans who'd got mingled into the same stand so I was on best behaviour not to cheer if we scored just in case we got mobbed. We thought Bristol had scored at the early stages after we faffed around with the ball in front of goal and gave it away. A lot of the first half action was over the other side of the ground and mostly in Bristol's favour but it was Chair who got the only goal. He walked purposefully towards the Bristol fans at one stage but then just threw a bit of paper or something in our direction. The main abiding memory of that game was one angry supporter behind us who thought every decision in our favour was wrong and every decision in Bristol's favour wasn't enough and kept shouting 'SWITCH' really loudly amongst a mostly peaceful stand.
Maybe it is a northern thing as my mum was from the north and she used to hate the shoes on the table etc so we used to do it deliberately but now I find these things do stick with you so that one, the open umbrella indoors, the salt over the shoulder, walking under ladders, bad luck for the one magpie etc. The QPR ones include if I check in on how it's going and the other side score I try not to look again, if I can stand the pressure of not knowing, just in case I jinxed it. Same with the away Swansea match I went to, decided I'd better not go to another one last season just in case.
Think you were replying to my post and as I'm female that option isn't open to me. Interestingly though I tried my same details with only changing it to male and it took 5 years off so you've got something there.
I stopped weighing myself a long time ago - as long as I fit in my clothes I'm happy I'm keeping it steady(ish) so a bit of guess work involved (possibly giving myself the benefit of the doubt ) and I've got till I'm about 74/75
I was given The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo trilogy of books by someone who might question me on whether I'd read them or not so I couldn't put them in the back of a cupboard or give them to a charity shop and forget about them. I reluctantly picked the first up to read to say that I'd given it a go, convinced I would get through a chapter at most and that would be it, but somehow I'd read all 3 books in a matter of weeks without putting them down.
