    It's Villa everywhere down here. Are we sure they only gave us 3,200 tickets? 

    I meet quite a lot of Villa fans down these parts. Lots from the Navy, I've always reckoned its because us Brummies crave to be beside the seaside.

  2. Come on Villa. My son (11) has bagged a ticket in the family section with his Southampton supporting mates, he insisted on wearing his Villa top under his bright orange hoodie! He's been practising his Allez Allez Allez all morning. Hopefully we won't lose! UTV!

  3. Oxford Street is quite good for food and beer. Ocean VILLAge is nearby as well - both away from the 'city centre'. I remember about 20 years ago, the Ocean Village sign being robbed of all letters other than VILLA - not sure if it was after a game or just student shenanigans. If anyone is in Locks Heath you are welcome to pop in for a cuppa in exchange for a donation to the MS Society or MS Trust.

    Dayville's ice cream parlour.....32 flavours i think, but yes New Street.

    Yes! Dayvilles 32 flavours! I remember the day I walked in and played Operation Wolf for the first time, an UZI gun and 'ultra realistic' graphics 😜 Oh how easily pleased I was back then.

    All a bit new for me these games you’re all referencing.

    I was the king of the 70’s arcade game. Asteroids, Space Invaders, Galaxian. 

    Find 10p and play a game for as long as I wanted.

    52 Flavours in Brum, New St? Or somewhere.,..

    Sensible Soccer, Kick-off 2, Goal!, Speedball 2, I spent far too many hours playing these games with friends on the Amiga in my dark smoke filled bedroom in Dorridge - happy days.
