Two days into my new job and new routine. I have to admit, even as invincible as I am to the daily commute, I am slightly tired. Firstly, let me guide you through my first official day. London and the bright lights of the City. It was hectic, that I had expected. But there were […]

I start work on Monday. Although, somewhat nervous, apprehensive and generally daunted by the prospect of this new position in the City, I am trying to build up some confidence. I have been crawling around various websites, reading up the all important advice to make sure my first day goes swimmingly. It was during this […]

Why do we do it? Why do the English national squad always press the self-destruct button? Why, in the last dying moments of the opening group game of an international tournament do we lose that all important concentration and fall flat on our faces? All that when you are in a commanding position for 90 […]

I watched the action comedy, I-Spy on Sky Movies last night. Not a movie I would have gone to the cinema to see, but enjoyable way to waste away a few hours on a Saturday night. It is amazing how Eddie Murphy has not aged in his movies and appears as fresh as he did […]

I will be back in Wycombe on Sunday and I must say I am looking forward to going home. Of all the journeys I have made home from University, this will be the sweetest and the most comforting. I have nothing to gain by staying in Leicester. Of course some of my friends remain, but […]

‘God Is A Gooner’ read one of banners at Highbury yesterday afternoon as Arsenal went into the history books by going the full Premiership season unbeaten. There has already been the discussion of whether this team deserves the title of greatness. I am not going to give an unbiased opinion here, but let me add […]

A difficult week for me as an Arsenal fan. Particularly when so many of my friends are ‘ManYoo’ fans! However, I am a strong believer that we need to be taken to a point of great despair, to realise how important everything else is. To put the rest of our lives into perspective. This then […]

I must admit that in the past few days, I have wanted to blog, but I have lacked the inspiration and motivation to actually add an entry. I would, of course, apologise for this. I feel it is necessary to do so. I know how important my blog has become to all my reader’s and […]

Arsenal continue on course for that Premiership title and only one source can bring together the views and feelings of being a Gooner at this moment in time. The funny thing is, I do not even know his name. I suppose it is better that way. Just look what happened to the Baghdad Blogger, once […]

We place our happiness in other people’s hands. I am a strong believer in this prophecy. There is some amazing joy in making someone else happy. But when someone else makes you happy, that is a feeling on another level. A feeling that is unlike another other I have felt. I feel invincible, unbreakable and […]
