Had a photo published in Town's matchday programme in the late 1980's of me with a Town pennant in Leningrad.

Wore mine in Florida in 2002, ran into another town fans also wearing one, was hiding behind a sales counter singing Mariners, and this chap was looking all round to see where it was coming from. Also got some strange looks in 2008 sat in Manchester airport waiting to go to Florida again, the day of the paint pot trophy.Wherever i go abroad i always take a Town shirt and always run into someone from home.

My wife raves about the pub there, Chris. Will eventually get there myself, did you rate it like everyone else does, ie superb?

I've got a picture of me wearing the last nike one in some dirty desert temple while on a quad biking day trip in sharm el sheik a few years ago. Got on of them black and white tea towels round my face/head as well that they give to everyone. I do look a bit "dodgy"!
Actually wouldn't mind using it as an avatar but haven't worked out how to do it yet, anyone? (in simple talk please)
Other places - new york, on top of what was then the twin towers, barbados, cancun - where some idiot asked if it was a newcastle shirt, numpty. spain, tenerife - where i watched whits split als lip and last week in lanzarote where i asked why a lad from donny supported man u and had a soft spot for barnsley?!

You won't hear us crying But you'll hear us shout Coz we are the Grimsby And this is our chant.......... Grimsby! Grimsby! Grimsby!
