I read this morning that Conte will not renewhis contract after this season. Wants to return to Juventus. Is this true?
No, Smithy. Juve are possibly regretting appointing Allegri, but there's no reliable source suggesting Conte as a credible replacement. Am I remembering correctly that you are you now living in Charleston?
It's impossible not to think that.... Mrs B's going there in just over a week, to see a mate who lives in the US...no boys allowed I'd love to go out there for some Civil War visits...but that'll have to wait for a couple of years.
I just read it on "headline news" on my computer over here. I thought it a bit early myself or was he ticked off letting in two goals inthe 90 th + minutes?
No.I'm now in Richmond Kentucky. I lived here before but had to return to Lexington when Paula got sick.She died there and I wanted to go back to Richmond.I did visit Appomattox when I first came over here in 1980. We were visiting her parents in the mountains of Harlan Kentucky and were returning to our first home in Virginia Beach. We moved to Barbourville,Ky when she took a 2 year course in the local college. I spent 2 years working in a nursery babying plants and trees.Never done that before but loved it. There wasn't much work around there. I had previously had office jobs in England.On theway home after nursery work,I'd stop at McDonalds in nearby Corbin for a strawberry milkshake in nearby Corbin to cool down. My clothes would be sticking to me after working in 80/90 degree heat!
It sounds very exotic...but I've got images in my head of the 1860's. What it looks like now...? Hopefully a lot of its old charm has been kept? My knowledge of the states is largely the west coast , which is largely naturally beautiful scattered with nondescript or disappointing areas of habitation...and New York and a bit of New England. The south has always had the pull of its history and how it's depicted in films (not Deliverance or Southern Comfort!)
I can remember going to Roanoke with Paula looking for work in Virginia, Unsuccessfully! I had no idea,then,about the "Lost Roanoke Colony" there. Walter Reilly was supposed to go back to England for food etc to bring back but got mixed up with the Armada. When they finally returned, everyone had vanished. No bodies.Nothing....but a message left on a tree. To this day it is thought the Colony joined,or were taken by Indians. Kim grew up in a house so old,close to the rebuilt Fort Boonesboro,it has it's own cemetery close to the house. It contains the body of a Civil War fighter who died from wounds or simply lost his way home.
Fort Boonesboro (Kentucky) is an imitation of the original which Daniel Boone and others defended families from Indian attacks. Inside is like going back to the past,with people dressed and "working" as they did so many years ago......and Kim's brother takes visitors around the little museum close to the Kentucky River.There is another fort in Harrodsburg,Fort Harrod in Kentucky. I took my mum there when she visited and she was taken by this small grave which recorded "the first white child to die in Kentucky".
I wouldn`t be surprised, he must know by now he isn`t going to be given the tools to succeed at Spurs while ENIC are around.
For anyone wondering why there are two Friday games, the Forest one was moved. Trent Bridge hosts some cricket (One Day Cup?) on Saturday. One less game on Friday in the Premier League than on Saturday is quite odd, though.
