Micro has the 2K14 game on the XBox. He is bloody good at it but the weird thing is seeing these classic fights and he gets the achievement points for re-enacting classic things I remember happening - Undertaker choke-slamming Mankind from the top of the cage popped up and I thought - I remember watching that!

We watched it years ago when the likes of Undertaker, The Mountie, The Berzerker, IRS and Kamala, to name a few were on show. The good lady and the lad liked it, so I had to shut up and watch it.....

That Hell in a Cell match made Foley a legend because he took a stupid bump off the cage dislocated his shoulder then he went through the cage (which wasnt supposed to happen) ended up with a tooth in his nose. Then he carried on for another 15 minutes including a slam into thumbtacks.

On a similar theme, we're taking my 3 year old to meet Peppa Pig and George on the Severn Valley Railway in May.

The oldies are up in arms about that so Ive read. They have sacrificed one of there steam Gala's for that. But they fail to add the Peppa Pig event will raise them a hell of a lot more money then the steam event.

Yep, they will be.

The kids events are great, we went to see the Octonauts last year.

An event on the SVR with kids all over the place is much, much friendlier than one of the galas as I find that some enthusiasts are INCREDIBLY rude people. They don't mind elbowing anyone (adults or children) out of the way to get their perfect photo of a train.

Ive been too a few over this year and I totally agree. Ive got two sticks now and have been pushed out of the way by elder people as well. Ignorance is rife. They ask the question why the kids event, well the kids will fill the trains the gala's aren't full because all the enthusiast cares about is finding a place on the platform or a bridge to take shots, they don't care for riding the trains.

Another legend died this morning, The Ultimate Warrior passed away aged 54 and 2 days after appearing on Monday Night Raw & 3 days after appearing at Wrestlemania 30

R.I.P the man called Warrior.

 

[Langers]

I remember thinking he was ace. When I was 10, and thought wrestling (AKA synchronised cuddling) had any credibility whatsoever. Still - happy childhood memories and all that. RIP.

 

[James]

I remember him for his crazy promo's and general energy, it's a sad day but the memories he gave us will live on forever.

Also rumours are rampant that the Undertaker has finally retired.

He's been clean since the early 90's, he was part of the infamous law suit against Vince over steroids.

The steroids did their damage years ago, heart problems have taken too many wrestlers from that era. No matter how long ago he stopped, drugs got him in the end.
Would you like me to list the wrestlers who have died of "heart problems" or drug related incidents in just the last 10 years or do you know what I'm saying James?

The list is huge, it's a good job that the extensive testing is now in place to stop the roiders but it's still happening outside of the WWE in the indies. I've personally had UK wrestlers tell me they have been on roids in the past.

His battles with Hulk Hogan were awesome. I had some Ultimate Warrior bubble bath which was a hollow plastic figurine of him with his arms in the air!
