Another Yawn

I thought watching the Lions at Twickenham was frustrating but watching them on Saturday was a real yawn. It seems to have been catching, as Scotland also misjudged the Italians and the Welsh were romanced by the French, even the Tigers failed at home to Northampton, however, they did have 5 members sleeping with the lions. Still having a nice Chinese on Saturday night meant that it wasn't a total frustrating day.

News is slow this week, the authorities still worrying about our diets and not worrying about getting the kids fit, what ever happened to swimming, PE, sports, oh I forgot, the PC crowd don't like loser's at school, so no competition allowed.

I have now uploaded all the photos from our holiday and can be found at:

Hope you enjoy them.

Road to Hell

So everyone is complaining about traffic jams, anyone who has traveled the world and visited the main cities will know that it is not a UK phenomenon.

Tony Blair the Autocrat thinks he knows better than nearly 2 million motorists, there again he thinks he knows best about everything.

Gordon Brown the Prime minister Elect doesn't seem to have an opinion, or is he keeping mum, until he takes the reins so that he doesn't upset anyone. Still being the Chancellor he must be rubbing his hands when he thinks of all that cash that will flow into his tax bank.

And what about the villagers who will suffer the increase in traffic through their villages when everyone tries to avoid the high paying road charges.

Only this Government could think that everyone will stay on the major roads and pay their way, while all the country lanes, estate roads start to clog up increasing traffic journeys and increasing the pollution for everyone. Once again lets all forget about those who live in the country and travel to their places of employment, they like the petition signatories are insignificant because Mr Blair knows best.

Lions Meow

The 6 Nations at Twickenham, England V Italy.

Johnny Wilkinson scores the Lions 20th point.

82,000 spectators fell asleep as England underestimated the opposition and Italy tried thier best.

With 10 minutes to go, the Mexican Wave was the only thing that kept the spectators engrossed.

Mean while the Welsh leaked points to the Scots at Murreyfield.

All White Now

Well as predicted (unusually) by the weathermen the snow arrived on time. It was great driving to work no traffic.


Seems nearly everyone decided to stay in bed for a day off (any excuse). Those that did venture out decided that 20 MPH was to fast for the conditions, even the 4 x 4 drivers!!!, perhaps they should have stayed at home instead of trying to find out what adrenaline was, I bet there were more skid marks on certain parts of their clothing than on the 30 miles of road I travelled.


Me up to my eye balls in work, seems as though I haven't been on holiday, still stops me from getting bored and the weekend is coming.


While on holiday Gill the super wife had arranged for tickets to Twickenham to see England v Italy (that's what 25 years of marriage can achieve), lets hope the lads perform better than their football cousins.

Day 1

Hi

Well this is the first Blog I've attempted, so if your happy let me know, if not, well be kind and let me know anyway.

Firstly, Gill and I have just returned from our Holiday in Kenya and the Seychelles (or Sea shells as the Africans say it), this was to celebrate our 25th Wedding Anniversary on the 29th January, I had suggested Skegness but only conceded to the Seychelles when we compromised on the safari as well.

That's what marriage is all about, reverse psychology, getting your partner to agree to something you want without them knowing it.

How time fly's, not only the 25 years of marriage bliss, but our holiday as well, must have enjoyed both.

Now to download my 1,000 plus digi photos and edit a bit of video so I can bore all my friends and family with our holiday antics.

If your really lucky I may even share some with you.

From 90 degrees in the Seychelles to -1 at Heathrow was a bit of a shocker and now snow is forecast and I'm back to work tomorrow to start saving for our next adventure.
