Think the "Trade Description" police need to have a look into that statement, sir Just got back to the UK, I have your hat, so PM address and I'll send it out to you.
I blame the Pizza, Steak & Burgers the past 10 days ( Years i hear some say ) or more... Thanks for taking care of the Hat Dave, i'll PM with the address for it Mate..

Just a quick post to say how great it was to meet so many of you in Toronto at the Imperial, the party, the Liberty Street cafe, the match, etc. As someone who traveled over to Canada solo, I can safely say that Hammer supporters are some of the most welcoming and friendly people in the world! I hope to post what pictures I managed to take this week, though I am afraid I had more pints in my hand than I did my camera. xoxo, Rosecityhammer aka "Google" aka "Laurie"

Yep! I do remember! It was at that Liberty Street Cafe down the street from the stadium. BTW, I think this is one of the best descriptions I have ever read: "I was the Fella talking to the West Brom Fan & anyone who would listen to me & trying to steal people's Hat's & Chicken Wings"

I went up the CN Tower in about 1987. It was a glass lift all the way. I've felt safer. Great view though!!!!

Just had a quick look through the thread and I'm glad all that went had a cracking time. I watched the game in a pub in Lanzarote while on holiday. I think we played well with Ashton and Faubert impressing me a lot but the game was watched through my very drunk eyes so don't take my word for it.
