So much to see and so much to do.

[Billy_Dean]

I was Googling around for some pics of London, when I came across this site Dan Heller&#39;s Photo Gallery. (http://www.danheller.com/) The site and pics were so good, I decided to use his thumbnails here. Give the place a look, there are not just pics of London, but from all over the world, well worth the visit.

So, this is London, the city of my birth.

And he supports Man Utd....lmao. :o

[razorsharp013]

I&#39;m not even going to bother. I&#39;m in Orlando Florida, and I&#39;m sure everyone has at least seen pictures of Disneyworld, Sea World and all the other tourist attractions that keep this poor excuse for a city on the map.

Originaly from NYC though, we all know what that looks like. And I miss it soooooo much too. :(

[Billy_Dean]

I&#39;ve supported Manchester United since I was a little kid, over 50 years. My grandmother was a friend of Matt Busby, they met during WW2. I also support Brentford, if you can call them a football team, and Chelsea who my son-in-law played for.

Who was he? I may have seen him play, as i have seen hundreds of Chelsea games over the last 26 years. I was born in Wandsworth and now live in Worcestershire, true blue through & through. :D

[Billy_Dean]

Steve Wilkins, Butch&#39;s brother. He was there since a kid. Didn&#39;t get many senior games tho, played for Brentford too, like his dad.


:)

Edit: Added full stop. :)

[*´¯`·.¸¸.»Çô©ö»]

Wow....i remember, not seen him though, his brother is a legend at the Bridge. ;)

[Billy_Dean]

My daughter was round Butch&#39;s house the other week, she likes him a lot, very down-to-earth, not stuck up at all. And Steve is the best son-in-law you could ask for.


:)

[*´¯`·.¸¸.»Çô©ö»]

Please ask your daughter to ask Butch if he still go&#39;s up the Bridge at all? ;)

[Billy_Dean]

I&#39;ll ask, I don&#39;t think he does tho, Steve doesn&#39;t, he stopped supporting them when they first became a "foreign" team.

PS: How about we move to the football thread next door?
