  Scraps from the Scoopsbook 

Last Updated : 15/03/06

his is a bit of a strange on, this.  I was looking up a beer in my old massive scoops book which many will remember (bloody hell, it weighs a ton - how did I carry that around with me?) and was amused by some of the scribblings in it - here are a few which may evoke some memories of those golden years... (and yes, the book still exists although it is stored serviceable these days).

My old scoopsbook, stored serviceable... Nige's drawing in my scooping book explaining how I could be as "Flat as a Board"... Enough said... by Daigy Nov 98 From Mick the Tick! I think this was from the Sun during the world cup or something...
