Random Irritations

Two weeks off from football, come back this week and it feels like I've not played in six months. Fitness just completely gone. Two weeks is all it takes now apparently. Played awful, feel awful. Retirement beckons.

Keep at it mate. I’ve probably 10 years on you and still love playing twice a week.

It does get harder the older you get when you miss a few weeks. Can’t wait for walking football ?

Tell me about it. Maybe I'll look for an over 35s league somewhere where I can be the relative spring chicken again.

Going to have to cut down the football when we have the baby anyway I should think. I'll probably knock it down to once a week rather than the three I'm doing this week. ?
 
About 40 minutes ago my phone rings...its the wife.

Her: Is that portable battery jump starter thingy you've got all charged up?
Me: Yes
Her: I'm in town and my car wont start...think the batteries died...can you come and jump start me?
Me: Yes, no problem...i'll be with you in ten minutes......<pause whilst my memory starts churning>...didnt your battery die about three months ago and you got a new one? Perhaps there an electrical fault in the car that's causing them to fail.
Her: Yes, I did get a new one but it is still in its box on the floor of my sewing room....I never bothered fitting it.

:mad::mad::mad::mad:

...to add insult to injury I had to pay £1.45 for five minutes parking in the fascist, big brother, CCTV number plate recognition controlled NCP car park that she had chosen to break down in!!!

Prince Harry, I don’t have any yearning to read his book but the snippets I’ve seen make him sound like a right ?

That's not the way I see it.

It all stems from the way he lost his mother, especially in the tragic circumstances and the way the press hounded her.

Not just the press but the lack of support from the institution.

Just think about it, a 12 year old losing his mother in such a tragic way.

Now he sees it all happening again in his own family. Again with very little support from the "Institution".
So having lost loved ones in my own family I fully empathise with him.

Didn’t two boys lose their Mum though? Didn’t seem to affect Wills.

Also anyone with a brother knows sometimes there are fights… last thing you want to do is go airing your dirty laundry in public. Unforgivable.
