    Evening Al, managed to feel calm today?

    <ale> <ale> available, paid for by Troy who is celebrating. On Tuesday when he was with Jon Marks he knew all about the hat-trick record.

    I think we are going to score a few goals this season.

    Really, we've got a better squad now. Moreover, they've had a longer pre-season together. Furthermore, the players from last season might help the other newbies gel. Also, got beter defensive cover and well we could well be in with a shout.

    However, very early days. Nevertheless, Zola is in charge and basically KEEP ON SMILING...:1980_boogie_down:

    Early start today...off to babysit Mrs H's grandson.

    Pleasant day watching cricket yesterday, though it's a mystery how Hampshire can be so good at one-day cricket and so ineffective in the Championship 4 day format.

    Morning all from an overcast West West London - definetely a bit darker in the mornings and will have to start putting the headlights on!

    I had an invitation on LinkedIn over the week-end from a guy I was an apprentice with over 30 years ago - back in the day he was a Liverpool fan, but I am sure he became one of them later on...will be interesting to see if he gets in touch.

    Morning all, a lovely summers day with just enough breeze to keep you at a comfortable temperature unless you do things in the full glare of the sun. Lifted my shallots this morning and they are now drying off.

    Public holiday Thursday and the commune has it's big annual do starting Wednesday. Should be my chip shop duty, but I will see.

    Middlesex have got the reverse problem - yesterday, we only beat the Unicorns by 1 wicket in the final over.

    Almost felt sorry for the Aussies, but couldn't quite. ;)

    Went off to do some watering and they hadn't lost a wicket. 2 hours later I came back and 7 were out. Who needs this one day stuff?

    I thought it was one day stuff. <wah>

    On a different note - there's a rumour around that the un-named Jamaican player suspended by FIFA on drug charges last week is a certain ex-Hornet at Reading... Find it hard to believe :(

    If you mean who I think you mean, it is strange that he is not reported injured yet cannot even make the bench in their last game. I really hope it is no more than a rumour.
