So, here we are, yet another Easter. With the holiday break upon us, and four days away from work, instead of the customary two, I thought it important to consider how quickly the year is passing already. Christmas, feels only a few weeks away, but it is in fact exactly three months ago. Why is the time passing so fast? I know work is a major element. I am constantly busy, so the days pass by within the blink of an eye and the weeks seems to revolve around in an instant with little rest bite. I get up, go to work, come home, eat, watch television, go to sleep for the whole sequence to start again, for the following day. While I confess, routine is something my heart longs for, there is something missing from the picture. Perhaps the fact that days are passing by and my sense of achievement is not as significant as for other people. No matter, I plod on and keep on running, winning in some cases. There are many milestones to come and I know at least one is just around the corner, painted in a bright maruno blue!

Today is Good Friday and this weekend, the Christian festival of Easter. Sorry about stating the obvious, I know there is little need to do so. Although there is little need for me to dwell on this subject any further, for DG has done an excellent job explaining the rarity of an early Easter. Off all the blogs I read on a daily basis, his has to be the most accurate in terms of content. Every subject matter is thoroughly researched and the opinion given with sound reasoning and each link exclusively illustrating a point mate. At times, I think I should stop blogging and just place a permanent link to Diamond Geezer. The greatest thing about his blog, is his ability to give you such a personal insight into his life, without ever revealing his true identify. It is super heroes such as this that the blogging world salutes.

Of course, I have been patiently anticipating the return of the great Doctor. Although once again, there is little need for me to go on about anything at all. I will be glued to the television screen at 7pm tomorrow night, having successfully taken hold of the Sky Remote. DG on this occasion successfully links all of the previous television doctors with London. Strange how one location plays such an intriguing part in the longest running sci-fi series on television. I never knew I shared my birthday with such a greatly loved hero.

This is actually turning out to be a ‘lads’ weekend. With the afternoon starting with several World Cup Qualifiers. I will of course be cheering on England as they face home international rivals, Northern Ireland at Old Trafford. The signs are that Sven should name a positive line up with Joe Cole, on the left wing. Although I am a great admirer of the Chelsea man, I feel he still has loads to do, to bridge the gap to international level. I think England will secure their position top of the group, after these next two matches, with the benefit of home advantage. Then again, I could be eating my words, Wednesday evening, when Azerbaijan pull off an upset.
