• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler
    Owner, jackarmy.net

So where is everybody off on holidays then?

Good Memory DJack! It will actually be 4 years this coming Thursday 23rd May that I was booked to fly out to Peru in 2020. No, I never did get there and lost quite a bit of money on that as KLM would only give me a voucher valid until the end of 2021 and there were still travel restrictions in place in Peru. I'd more or less given that one up for good but things change and it may be back on my list now but I think next year will probably be my last chance as tackling something like that at 73 will be a challenge that would have been a lot more feasible at 5 years younger. :unsure:
Sorry to hear that buddy.

Since the love of my life passed away couple of years back, have not been anywhere. Now through sheer luck I've met someone lovely we are off to Chania/Crete. Never been....if anyone has, what can we expect?
Been there several times in the past twelve years, not so much Chania but Kolymbari, a small fishing village up the coast a bit. Used to get the bus into Chania, the nearest big touristy town for a day out. Chania's lovely, with an old town with narrow winding streets and a beautiful big harbour with bars and restaurants ringing the quayside.
Get a hire car for a few days at least and get into the mountains and hidden bays on the far west of the island, it's lush.
 
Had a week in NZ for my uncle's 90th, now into the second week of a two week stay in Bali, Newquay for 4 days in September.

NZ amazing but this was just a family visit. Bali is crazy traffic & bikes everywhere but extreme beautiful. Rounding up the last few days with a change of hotel and pace just to relax. So far managing the heat & humidity and avoided the dreaded Bali belly.
 
Booked a fortnights holiday with work today, fuk knows what we'll do, but at least I can look forward to a fortnight off.

What bitters are you drinking, that's the question and always the answer.. or delve into the cider market, make it a marathon
 
Yeah but I don’t care because I’m not a drama Queen like some people.
Ooh you're ard (Ricky Gervais).. nobody on this forum gets more stick than me, it's proven, I'm the guy that gets the most grief, maybe jack123 over takes me, or resloven on the other forum..

That Resolven fella is a strange one, his obsession with sheep and the ladies team strike me as rather peculiar.
 
Deserves all the grief he gets with some of his views.
For saying that sheep slurs are offensive and the u21s look promising, and Huw Jenkins and the sell outs did a good job.. calling the yanks good investors, which they are according to accounts.. they're putting in millions.. he just focuses on these four subjects.. doesn't budge.. it's just a forum where all the world's weirdos vent vitriol
