This weekend has been very much stop start, before it really even began. I wanted to go and see D.O.A. with Pav last night and had actually given up on the idea completely and resigned myself to spending Friday night in (which was not a bad thing really). There had been an alternative option. Head […]

Another weekend, another early start. I had planned to catch the non stop train to London Marylebone just before 9am. I got to the station with a good ten minutes before the train arrived. The train was packed, but we had been warned over the tannoy a few minutes before the train pulled up to […]

You must be bored with the line I always spin on a Friday. Sure, there are millions of people around the world that must be relieved when the weekend finally lands and what makes me so special and different? Nothing. I just like to use, my favourite day of the week to look back on […]

It rarely happens, so I am going to make a big point of mentioning it right at the beginning of this new post. Everything came together as planned this weekend. (Even if for moments at the start it was felt far from possible) Perhaps for the first time in ages not even a miniscule detail […]
Saturday 2nd September 2006
My favourite month of the year lands and with it some exciting weekends. This weekend is just a warm up for next weekend, when I am reunited with my best friends Dave after a period of over three years apart. The last time I saw him in fact was at his wedding day. More discussion […]

Pav truly proved his superhero credentials on Monday afternoon. We spent over six hours polishing, waxing and cleaning my car. We had planned this for ages but never got around to the job. Last time around, after his now infamous barbeque, it rained quite heavily and we just did not have enough time to clean […]

While I was struggling to find anything to write about on Friday, even to some extent on Saturday evening. I now find myself with two full days of events to report on. Let me first go back to Saturday evening. I decided to watch Star Wars – Episode IV: A New Hope on Sky. At […]

Do you like routine? I am a big fan of setting a routine and sticking with it. Therefore you can understand any changes to my routine affect me a great deal. Let me give the example of Wednesday this week. I was looking forward to the game that evening, but rather than taking the soft […]

Before we get to the football, let me tell you about the two movies I watched this weekend. First comes Bad Company, the underplayed premier on BBC1 on Friday evening after the news. I only found out it was on by searching on Radio Times online and as there was nothing else on worth watching, […]

Another new England era started on Wednesday night with a convincing performance against Greece at Old Trafford. I have been here many times before. In the past decade I have see the debut game for the following England managers. Hoddle, Keegan, Eriksson and now McClaren. I have always seen England give an improved run out, […]
