It's been a long week ...

Finally I've been able to settle down and maybe write something. It's been a hectic week at work. I've not had a second to myself, but that's good. Come the evenings the last thing I've needed is to sign in, long on and right this shit. Well I'm here now, and I've got the text saying we've just signed "Magic" Bougherra. Time will tell if he's any good, but at least he's been here a year or so. Poor old Souleyman is what I say. Let's see if Pards plays Bougga at right back on Tuesday or in the Centre given it's Kevin Davies. It's Bolton, so don't hold your breath.

So Shilpa won Big Brother. I had it on, in between flicking. I have to say Davina is at the cutting edge as an interviewer!!!!

Well Welling United are top of the Conference South for at least a week. I still follow the Wings progress, and it appears they have been doing quite well. I haven't got down there this season, yet ... in part not wanting to put a mockers on their good run. I always turn up and it goes tits up. But I may go to Gravesend on Tuesday to see them play Tamworth in the Trophy. I say I may do, but it's dependent on what time I get out of work. Watch this space.

I've decided to decorate my bathroom. I'm not sure if I want to tile the lot or paint it white? Decisions. I may have to run it past Vince. Maybe I could get it tiled for a good price. Maybe tiled and painted ... mix and match.

It's dawned on me that it's been a long time since I had a good moan. The trains, rucksacks ... garlic breath, people in general. But have you noticed how loads of people still drive whilst on their phones. But not only drive, start doing manouvres. Thre point turns and stuff. It's quite unbelievable really. The actual standard of driving is shocking. It seems any sod can pass the test these days.

Snow

It's great isn't it? A dusting of snow and the whole world stops.

Couldn't get a train, or a roadsweeper for love nor money. It did look nice though!!!! I need to go and rescue my banana plant this evening.

My tune of the day: I found lovin' - The Fat Back Band featuring Steve Walsh ;)

Blimey

It's been a few days.

Charlton won an away game, hurrah.

My tune of the day: Optimistic - Sound of Blackness

What's it all about

I haven't watched it, but given all the huhaaa .. I thought I would.

Cara you have a lot to answer for!!!

Jade Goody

It's not even funny ....

Unbelievable

Jack Twat????? Name or number ...!!!!

Big Brother

That Danielle .. what a proper cnut!!!!

Remarkable

Should I comment about the Union between England and Scotland being 300 years today. Yeah, nay ... well happy birthday Craig, Debbie and Woody.

It's been a couple of days since I was last on. Work is full on. It's actually quite good to be busy all day. The days shoot by. I even grabbed 30 minutes for lunch today. Hurrah ...

Oh I was going to try and pen something about the ADDICKS current plight. But I've been reading some emails from the pinkoboe list and I'm all hung out. I can't believe that people are still hanging onto some hope of getting out of the shite. I'm actually shaking my head. We are at a crossroads, and we need to hope that the board don't go off on one like they did this summer. They need to start planning now. We need to try to offload JFH and Big Bent. Rommadhal can as they say fcuk off, Ambrose can pack his bag back to East Anglia, and we need to get some young hungry players. In fact I think they should let JFH go now, bring back James Walker from Orient and put him in the team and leave him there. Just tell him not too worry and just play. We need to get Gislasson in and around the squad. Get Walton in front of the back four. Only what I think.

I just turned on Celebrity!!! Big Brother. I turned it straight off. Rubbish.

Shameless, you have to laugh.

Oh, one for Cooksley ... England won a game of cricket. Bloody hell. They made hard work of it though.

David Beckham ... oh it's not funny.

My tune of the day: I'll be good - Rene and Angela

Idiot

How many times did Beckham say "soccer" in his many interviews. Fuck off. It's Association Football, and he should have been using this term. Brand Beckham is off to LA and it's nothing to do with the money. It's about coaching and putting something back into the game. What an idiot!!!! He hasn't won fuck all, he hasn't done anything .. it's money, money .. MONEY.

England lost the cricket again. Pieterson is also out ... it's not even funny. Well it is.

Is it me or is all this shite about Liverpool just that. At what point are they a club in termoil? Termoil, Jesus H.

It's Boro tomorrow. Bothered. Not really. A bit of brekkie, tea at the Mooleys and then 90 minutes of pain. Hmmmmm ....

I'm glad it's the weekend ...

My tune of the day: There was a time - Dee Felice Trio

Thatcher, thatcher ... milk snatcher

That was the text message I got this morning as I waited in the bank. I realised at once that Margaret wasn't PM any more, so it would have to be about Ben. It didn't take long for me to put 2 and 2 together. About half hour later I had a texted from the club. They had agreed a fee with City. Oh well ... that's as good as it gets!!!!

It seems we have to get a lot of the muppets out. Pards wants them out. I'm not really sure what Dowie actually saw in them, but hey what do I know.

Kelvin McKenzie is on Question Time. Quite unbelievable. I think he does believe his own shit?

Anyway I was trying to work out if Iain Dowie actually knew who or what he was buying? Is or was Djimi Traore and Amady Faye last minute recruits because there was no one else, or did he really want them? Jesus.

I've read that the nights have been warmer than those nights in July!!!! Do they mean July nights in Antarctica? It's freaking cold. What are they on about?

Kelvin McKenzie what a twat!!!! What a complete and utter twat!!!!

My tune of the day: Was that all it was - Jean Carne

Another Day

It's been one of them days. Long and tiresome.

I had a chinese, a few beers and I'm going to bed.

My tune of the day: Lollipop - Edwin Birdsong

Mondays

That was hard this morning. The alarm woke me, I stumbled towards the kettle, it was the first working Monday in 2007. At the same time last week I was spinning on the wheels of steel. Ho hum.

So we are out of the FA Cup in 2007. An inept performance against Forest and still no away success. It's getting a tad boring now. Just one win would do it, just a little 1-0, nothing spectacular like. Anyway Forest got Chelsea away, so I'm not that fussed.

ZZ has finally turned up. But don't expect him to have any input for at least 4 weeks. He had a long flight and his standard ain't up to much. He'll go the way of Pouso (who I hear you cry!!!!)

I actually did a bit of tidying up this weekend. Six black bin bags of crap, and about 10 off stuff going to Oxfam. I couldn't even be bothered to ebay it. Just get rid.

When do the clocks go back? I'm fed up with this darkness. I want long balmy nights.

Chicken Chapple returns. If it wasn't so funny, it may be funny.

My tune of the day: Good Times - Chic

Rain

The weekend is finally upon us and the heavens open. I'm sitting here as the rain bashes against the window. Have I got an umbrella? No. Have I got my big coat? No. Ho hum is what I say.

The transfer window is upon us. Curbs is signing everyone, left right and centre. Boa Morte, Smertin, Hartson, Upson, Lineaker, Maradona. We get Reuban Agboola. It's the FA Cup tomorrow. The bleedin 3rd round and I don't appear to be that bothered. It's a shame really. Can't get up for the occasssion. Scotty Carson can't play!!!!! Oh so that's him back to Liverpool then.

The Ashes were lost then. 5 big ones to nil. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it. Three balls I watched last night. Three balls it look Pieterson to nick one. Oh well. It was interesting listening to Botham and Hussain this morning. They were taking exception to a Steve Harmiosn interview. I had actually seen the interview myself, and couldn't believe what he was saying. When asked what he would be doing when he got home, as there is 5 months before the next test he replied "I don't know." He doesn't know!!!!! Oh, keep yourself fir Stevie, lay off the pies, maybe practice a bit of bowling down the nets in Durham Highstreet. Not that hard is it?

My tune of the day: Word Up - Cameo

Another day ...

Until the end of the week, and a lie in. I really struggled to get in this morning. Three days into a new job and the strain is taking hold. Cheers for the heads up on the best sandwich bar locally Tel.

I tuned into Celebrity BB last night and soon tuned right out. I'll be watching the Hogfather tonight me thinks.

Oh I've just seen that Osei has had his red card disciplinary hearing at the FA. THe suits decided it was all a waste of time and have increased his ban by 100%. Quality. I can just see Jose over at the FA and them telling him it's a waste of time and Terry will be banned for 8 games not 4. Ho hum. At least Pards got off.

Did I say it's only Thursday!!!!! Jesus.

My tune of the day: Shifting Gears - Johnny Hammond

Time on my side

So here I am. It's 10:50 and I can finally settle down to write something. It's been a long couple of weeks. Leaving one job after 4 years and starting in another part of London is quite weird. Football, was weird over the Chrimbo break, even up to the Arsenal experience last night. It's quite easy to be an Arsenal supporter. Middle class Urbanite, with a few bucks in your pocket. You weren't there netween 53 and 70 were you? Idiots.

James Brown finally passed away. I actually saw the Godfather back in November. Little did I know. I remember him flirting up there with the Sugar Babes, who didn't know what the fcuk was going on. Respect.

Celebrity Big Brother!!!!! No thanks.

I'm actually working up by Oxford Circus now. That's different from Aldgate I tell thee. So many people. I only want to get a sandwich.

Jocelyn Brown and Alexander O'Neil .... quality. Thery are on now, BBC1 ... Just the two of us. Stick that in your pipe. There's scope there for a Southport duet, surely?

The cricket is still on. It's a bit of a lame duck in reality, but it'll be 5-0 in about 8 hours.My

My tune of the day: Who knows - Beau Dollar

Brand New Day

Ho hum.

A new year, a new job ... so I've sneaked to to put this up.

I'll be back on later.

My tune of the day: Super Bad - James Brown
