I think today can be summarised by the below 2 catagories..
THINGS THAT HAVE MADE ME SMILE
- On The Road - Part 2 - Chapter 8 - "What is that feeling when you're driving away from people and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? - it's the too huge world vaulting on us, aqnd it's goodbye. But we lean forward to the next venture beneath the skies"
- A REALLY old Maori chap wearing a full 1990's Liverpool F.C tracksuit.
- Discovering Summer Roll, which in summation is the good part of a Double Decker (the nougat), coated in Chocolate and rolled in Coconut.
- Lyrics from "My War" by Black Flag appearing on the Lyrics of the Day chalk board as I walked past the record store, normally it's some inane drivel by Coldplay or other radio friendly dross.
- Buying a coffee because it comes with a free muffin, only for the Indian lady to tell me she is out of Muffins but I can have a free home-made Samosa instead. Cheers little Indian lady, you made a little English boy happy.
- Interview at the Animal Control Services going well and being asked for a 2nd interview. Maybe some luck on the horizon and I can start buying things like tattoos and meat.
- Albert Park in the sun (for the 3rd day running), a lovely little spot to read my book and get a tan, in April.
- Fulham getting to the semi's of the Europa league, Hodgson and Zamora for England.
THINGS THAT MADE ME FROWN
- My current form with Man City in Football Manager 2010, and my Champions league form in particular.
- Having some beers here but nobody to drink them with.
- Eating pasta, tuna and sauce AGAIN.
- Walking more than 5 miles every day, up hills.
- Portman for not being completely smoking in Brothers, 15-20 minutes max I'd say...and I think she may have had a boob job, which is not the way forward.
More to come as appropriate, but for now. Football Manager
