Conflict averted! Me and my West Ham missus

Blimey that was crap. There she was. A happy and hopeful Hammer, 45 minutes away from the Carling Cup final and a face off with my beloved Gunners. But that sweet missus of mine has the misfortune of being born into an affliction for which there is no cure. The family team is West Ham and so Queenie’s die (hard) was rolled. Hammer till she … Continue reading Conflict averted! Me and my West Ham missus

The buildings of … Continue reading Perfect distraction 16.01.11

My life in pyjamas

Hot. Cold. Hot. Cold. Hot. Cold. Hot. Cold. Hot. Cold. Hot. Cold. Bored. Finally after weeks of nearly properly poorly my immune system has broken down. And I’m oink ridden.

I’m now Lucozade fuelled, ODing on Vicks, craving Soothers, praising the kind soul who invented balsam tissues … Continue reading My life in pyjamas

A New Year Resolution per minute

A certain list based post made me think. Cheers Linzi. See we have to many lists, me and my Queen. On the fridge, in my study, in our diaries. Sync, print and…….left. Longingly looked at as we distract ourself with Dr Who and disco naps. Oh to complete. Still if lists be the food of life, I’ll write on. Lusting for completion with a cheeky … Continue reading A New Year Resolution per minute
