In prospect, another boring Saturday. Determined to make things different, I text my friend Pav and asked if he wanted to go see Sin City. He replied instantly, as he always has done and it bought back memories our texts during college. He was in Southampton and had already seen the movie on Friday night. […]
Thursday 2nd June 2005
While like everyone I have good days and bad days, I feel I tend to not bask in the sunshine of those days when life treats me well. I tend to remember and hold closer those dark grey days, when the sun never appears from behind those rain clouds. For once and a break from […]

Eleven am is late in my book. Waking up any time after 10am is considered lazy. My excuse? If I have to confess, it is the fact there was little on my agenda. I would have wasted away those hours watching music television and idle chat on-line. So to save myself from this, I spent […]

Sure, I admit it. I can be downright annoying if I want to. I would personally call it being, persistent. Those under this pressure from me would disagree. Yet, there is always a good reason that I am going to such lengths because I truly care. A case in point, is my dear friend Nav, […]

Sorry, but another adventure in that day of the week, we would all rather forget. My colleague had asked me to swap shifts and come in early this morning. I duly agreed, taking into account it was his girlfriend’s birthday, so it would have been rude not to come to his aid. This was the […]
Monday 23rd May 2005
The morning after the night before, is the standard phrase, but it actually refers more to the day than the night. I awoke, hoping everything had been a silly dream and that things were actually different. Almost instantly I came to the realisation that it was Monday morning, the real world was waiting for me […]
Sunday 22nd May 2005
So the day came, and thankfully I had many other things to occupy my mind before the afternoon. The morning was rushed, While I was busy cleaning my car, concentrating on the things I thought are important to make an impression. I received a text, the time had changed to 6pm, but the venue remained […]
Cup Final Day
The day of the cup final is always special, even if today felt different. I got up slightly later than normal and had some toast and tea for breakfast. Cruising the music television channels, I find myself tuning into VH1. They were doing a run down of the 500 Greatest British Songs this weekend. The […]

Thursdays, what is your view on them? Can you have a view on the day of the week? Perhaps not, because one Thursday, will never be like another. They stick in my mind for being crucial linkage between the middle and end of the week. The strongest example of this, is from my placement. I […]
Wednesday 18th May 2005
After several years of thinking about it, talking about it and evening dreaming about it, I did it. I summed up the courage to head over to Arsenal.com and join the club. The main prize of course is a season ticket to the new Emirates stadium, but the journey to that Mecca is long and […]
