[Forbury Lion]

Club you would love to see in the Premier League
Reading, obviously..... second answer would be Torquay United to make a nice weekend out of it.

Club you'd love to see slide down the leagues
Manchester United

Who would you support or follow if Reading weren't around
Reading Town and possibly West Ham United as an armchair fan because the were the underdogs in the Redknap era and played some good attacking football, in later life possibly Maidenhead Utd..... to be fair, without Reading FC I might not become that interested in football.

[Handsome Man]

Club you would love to see in the Premier League
Celtic and Rangers: 60,000 crowds, fantastic derby games and some real edge to their other games on occasion. Let them join the Championship next year, and it won't be too long after that they can improve and get promotion.

Club you'd love to see slide down the leagues
West Ham. The Olympic Stadium gift was so dodgy

Who would you support or follow if Reading weren't around
Cambridge, Somersham Town or Peterborough? Somewhere local.

I think you've mentioned him on here before, and we've had this very conversation before.

Saving money on your mortgage always seems like a false economy to me given the higher costs associated with living somewhere that far away - even a trip back home will cost you hundreds and your earning power is substantially reduced no matter what you do.

But that aside fair fooks to him for giving it a go and if the rural life appeals why the hell not. I enjoyed the recent Fair Isle documentary on the beeb. That would be even tougher - but it does seem like there's a correlation between isolation and cohesion in communities, if that's not a contradiction in terms.

Yeah have mentioned it before. As long as he can find some kind of friends up there then I think he will be fine. He is someone quite happy on his own most of the time anyway and he has no reason to come back down this way once gone either.

The ferries to go to the Orkneys & Shetland are only 20-30 minutes from him. Once he is in and it is summer I wanna get up there for the longer evenings and we are taking an adventurous trip to one or more of said islands above. I did look into getting to the Faroe Islands but that looks like a right ballache

Beautiful neck of the woods. The train up to Thurso from Inverness is super and I did Thurso > John O'Groats > Wick the first afternoon of my JOGLE. Didn't see much of Thurso, but the road along the top to JOG is lovely and bleak and Wick's very nice with a decent Wetherspoons.

When I do it in reverse, I'd like to do one or two of the Orkney routes at the end and get the ferry back to Aberdeen.
