A long shot I know...
But anyone interested in the Derby Vs Forest FA cup game tonight...
Its being shown on ESPN at 03:45AM Saturday morning...
I will be getting a few hours kip when I get home from work & then hitting the town at 2:00am to track a bar that will be showing it!
Any one fancy joining me, give me a shout. I would prefer you to be a Ram, but a suppose a Red is better than no company at all...

Hi Chris or "ay up mi duck"
A long shot, but it paid off. I'm another expat Derby rams fan in HK. Unfortunately i have work on Saturday morning and anyway, the wife would have something to say if i was out past my bedtime.
But anyway, i'll be cheering on the rams in spirit, to knock down those trees!
Super Derby, Super Rams!

D&H, can appreciate that, In fairness, its not really used at all ( maybe some old codger living out at Heanor, Ripley or Ilkeston ).
I only added it for a bit of colourful dialect. Having said that, try as i might to removed any remnants of the Derby accent/dialect, people here still have a giggle at my pronunciation of certain words ( 'bus' being a case in point. Apparently people hear something like 'boose' but i just can't bring myself to start saying 'barse' or 'bas' to rectify (!!!) it.
Oh well. Vive la difference!
