Pleased you had a cracking time with your Son, Magnus, sounded like a brilliant weekend. He’ll be 18 before you know it and enjoying a few beers with you (legally).

It’s got a single Magpie tattooed on my arm too. Done around 40yrs ago, it looks a right state now. I’d never given the ‘one for sorrow’ thing a second thought. But you might have something.

I’ll get rebranded shortly. Or add another (‘two for joy’).

That seems like a hell of a trip, Magnus.

As a fellow Toon fan living elsewhere in Europe, I enjoy reading about others with similar tyransportation and ticket difficulties. Thankyou for sharing, and thanks for the heads-up about a third-party ticket site; I'll need to check that out, despite it being against my principles too.

It's nice to know there's still support in Norway Magnus.

Hopefully they'll bring the ferries back. I know it's the wrong side but it's better than Manchester.

East-West trains are a nightmare, Edinburgh, Leeds/Bradford or even East Midlands better options.

Great story Magnus. It makes me feel better knowing we have lobg suffering fans elsewhere supporting our just and righteous cause!
