Midnight in Cold Blow Lane: A pair of pants

A pair of pants

I have a lucky blue pair.

I'm confused!! I can understand a pair of socks or a a pair of shoes but I don't understand a pair of pants?? If a pair of pants consists of not one pant but two pants I can only conclude that each leg opening must be a pant. If a pair of trousers consists of not one trouser but two trousers each leg must be a trouser and two trousers makes a pair. I wonder why a shirt is not called a pair of sleeves??

Yippee I'm safe

With the David Cameron press law taking up a lot of news print lately I have skipped over it because I found it very boring. I as a Millwall supporter get treated like muck by the press and the media in general but I do not agree with politicians telling us what we can and cannot say and that was as far as my interest went, but today I read a piece of news print that said "Ministers agreed to exclude small scale blogs" They do, do they, well bless them, who do they think they are? They have u-turned over small independent bloggers such as I. That's not the main story here, the main story is that " it's incredible that they tried to push this through in the first place" Under their original proposed press law, this very blog would come under the jackboot of the press-law police, and they say that UKIP are extremists.

Four Blogger OZ

Why four Blogspots? Well apart from the fun of using the links to zip about between Blogspots, I have tried to separate different posts and pages into some sense and order.

7 Windmills is Millwall FC history with some current stuff. Also I have included a post about Amateur Radio to add a bit of me to the Blogspot. I have also added a page about the demise of the South London Pub to add a bit of local social history.

Following Millwall FC was added by me so I could publish my current Millwall posts and pages all in the same place and also so that I could have a Blogspot with Millwall FC in it's title which should help if people are using a search engine to find Millwall FC related sites.

And of course this site, Midnight in Cold Blow Lane which is my Blogspot that has a bit of everything. For those that know Cold Blow Lane needs no introduction, for those don't it is a very famous road in South London which was the home of Millwall FC from 1910 to 1993. Before 1910 their home was on the Isle of Dogs.

Last but not least Communication fever dedicated to Amateur Radio and all that goes with it. This Blogspot is only been set up 23/0ct/2010 so it is new and nowhere near completion.

All the links for them are on this page and there is also a link to take you back here.

Now that's a toughy. It could be Amateur Radio, or watching Millwall play or working on my Blogspots and other computer stuff or maybe down my caravan. Maybe it's with my family on days out or away on holiday. I like to fiddle with my LDV minibus to keep it running smooth and looking neat and tidy.

I am rather keen on watching Discovery channel and similar stuff. I enjoy a long soak in the bath. I have always enjoyed music and always have it on even in the back ground while I watch telly. CONCLUSION: I think it's all of them and some.......not enough hours in the day
