Really? I've not noticed him ever really doing anything other than lurking in the box like a spastic looking to nod one in.Quote:

That, I'm afraid, is the extent of my Peter Crouch knowledge. Perhaps big nose has an anecdote for us.
BTW Friday is Barrafina day, followed by a play called The Goat. :-(Quote:

Tortilla morcilla. Don't neglect the specials board, naturally - especially seafood from the josper grill.Quote:

Not a bad choice for lunchtime if the weather's very hot. The French drink it with ice cubes. Refreshing and doesn't really count as alcohol.Quote:

Yes.

And more than enough alcohol to make a chap forget the hell that is life in the 21st century. Oh yes. :nod:
