A glorious pint of bitter in the Clement Attlee pub.

It does happen in Charlton sometimes. This was it in October 2024.

It was very much in the direction of The Valley. Youโd only see the Northern Lights on a clear night I think. This was either the groundsman at work, or a Viking funeral after the heavy defeat at Millwall.
