Just like last year one or two members have sent over some Gifts for me at Christmas. The Partnership, Richard and Joe, have sent me several Snooker photo's signed by Ronnie O'Sullivan, Mark Williams and Shaun Murphy..A Glen Hoddle autobiography signed by the man himself and a signed and dedicated autobiography from Bill Beaumont "To Alex Happy Christmas Bill Beaumont" how cool is this. Nigel has sent up a signed book "Around the world in 80 days" signed by MIchael Palin, Seen plenty of his books not signed in the shops up here Nigel came across this in his local "The Works" Book shop and remembered me :-x. Do you all remember the young girl "Beth" who had the disappointment from Steve Gerard and I sent her a signed photo of him to cheer her up? Well Beth and Dad Ron have sent me a signed Goalkeepers glove from Bob Wilson, The Arsenal Legend..Awesome and finally from Paul, Who's had one hell of a terrible year but still remembered his friends, he's passed onto me a signed photo of David Herd in his Arsenal days. What fantastic friends I have here.
"Humbled" by the generosity of members on these boards. I wish you all happy new year.:-x

I love the Hoddle and Beaumont books, and the David Herd pic is class. I know very little about the world of snooker, but the pics look great. The Bob Wilson glove was a lovely gesture.
