Time as I am regularly reminded by others, is purely a human construct. A way for us all to contextualise change. Personally as long as I can remember I have been a ‘date’ guy. Linking events in my life, with music (every film needs a soundtrack) but also by global events, usually of the sporting […]

I took a half day today, to go and catch the crucial World Cup Qualifier at Wembley with Chris. While I perhaps could have just asked to leave earlier but it is not the same rushing to the stadium with everyone else leaving work. I would much rather head over and have plenty of time […]

This may surprise you but I tend to prefer to watch football in two places. In the comfort of my own sofa, at home. Or at the ground (Highbury and soon Ashburton Grove). I have only ever watched one game in pub group environment. (While you recover from the shock, let me explain). It was […]

I enjoy the occasional quiet weekend. In recent weeks I have had far too much going on, while enjoyable it is not the same as staying in at home and doing nothing. I say nothing but I have just been watching the wall to wall football from the World Cup. Regardless of the countries playing […]

Well I made it to Friday, there was a slight wobble midweek but we made it. It has been a few days since my last entry and I have been thinking of what to write about. The World Cup has been dominating everything and perhaps the reason I find myself struggling to come out of […]

So I reach the end of my first week of hosting with 123-Reg. What can I say? It is great to not have to give out a separate link for the banner free hosting. The orange UK2 banner has now a place in the back of my memory and no longer a blunt appearance at […]

When will we ever learn? Maybe that is too much of a sweeping statement. When will I learn? Learn that you should never leave work to the last minute? A deadline looms and we feel we are oblivious to time and will get the assignment done. But here we are the weekend before the deadline, […]

I was in central London on Thursday. In the British Library, doing some family research. Anyway, while I waited in the lobby, I heard a very familiar voice. A voice I would hear, on a daily basis, but this time, it was coming from a few feet away. As the voice, and it’s owner came […]

Brazil, are champions of the world, for the 5th time. In the end, a team who just about qualified end up lifting the trophy. I have to say, I have find the tournament highly entertaining. Some magical moments, the US beating Portugal, the Koreans big following and of course the Irish spirit. As for my […]

Life has become rather dull now that England are no longer in the World Cup. I mean, watching the matches, doesn’t have the same feeling as it did a week ago. Never mind, means I can spend more time working on my website. Links have been updated. A mirror site is now available. To go […]
