  • Week 126 – August 10th – Christchurch – Part 1

    We had a short break in Christchurch this week, never been to this part of England before.

    Arrived earlier, so we went and found a car parking spot in the town and had a walk around.

    Some pictures from the wander.

  • Week 126 – August 8th – Indian and Commonwealth games

    We went to our favourite Indian restaurant (Pride of India) tonight and had a great meal and service as normal.

    Got home to watch the last part of the Commonwealth games, which has been brilliant, Birmingham have hosted well, good to see cricket back in the games.

    Couldn’t believe the closing ceremony ended with Ozzy Osborne rising up from the stage to sing Paranoid!!

  • Week 125 – August 6th – Leeds United v Wolverhampton Wanders

    Leeds United 2 – Wolverhampton Wanders 1 – HT 1-1

    Rodrigo (24), Aït-Nouri (74 og) – Podence (6)

    Assist –

    Harrison (24)

    I can’t believe another season is here, though starting earlier then usual because of the World Cup in November/December.

    In this soft reboot of the determined but ragged side that salvaged safety on the final day of last season, there was energy, endeavour and more than a little appetite for a fight as they battled their way back from Daniel Podence’s early goal to seal victory.

    Rodrigo fired them level with an angled drive in the first half and Ryan Ait-Nouri found his own net for the winner. In between there was a lot of harrying, high pressing and hearty tackles.

    It was good to see Bamford back, but we need to sign another forward before the end of transfer market due to his injury concerns.

    At least it was a win and were not bottom of the league at the start of the new season, like last season.

    League position 5th after 1 game – After 1 game last season, Leeds were 20th.

    Had a nice morning meeting with my friend Martin Ives.

    Showed me his new office setting, which appears to be an old police station. All doing well.
