Dave Roberts was for once almost lost for words as the news sank in Perennial underachievers Bromley in the vertigo-inducing fifth tier of English football? It was the greatest achievement in the club's 130-year history & by extraordinary coincidence Dave had decided to spend the next 12 months in the UK after an absence of 35 years deciding whether he & his wife Liz could live there & what better way to explore modern day Blighty than by following a roadmap based on the fixtures in the Vanarama National League? It was like the ultimate package holiday; well for Dave at least Home & Away takes Dave
