The Past



The past is a foreign country: they do things differently there.

Wet Wet Wet



We've certainly had our share of wet weather this week. The countryside is waterlogged and rivers in full spate. 

The forecast for Christmas week is perhaps snow and colder temperatures but there is no sign of that yet.

The non stop rain continues - and to be honest - the last thing I want is snow - hate the stuff !!!

I need to visit our allotment and find out if the land is under water . Not that there is much I can do about that ...

We'll soon find out if there is to be a change in the weather.

Manchester City - Champions League



Manchester City Football Club have reached the last 16 of the Champions League and again find that for the second consecutive year that they will meet Barcelona.

Last season they lost 4-1 on aggregate - 2-0 at the Etihad and 2-1 over at the Nou Camp.

Matches to be played 24th February and 18th March

City are confident they'll do better this time and will reach the last 8 !!!

Good Luck ....

Penguins - move your cursor and take them for a walk !!

Say it as it is ......


Shoot for the moon, even if you miss, you'll land amongst the stars.

Look around !!!

What is this life, full of care,

We have no time to stand and stare?
