Friday 7th November 2008

I got a really nice surprise when I got home last night - as a thank you from her and Luca for quitting smoking Carole had bought me a subscription to Sky Sports! The sun seemed to shine from behind the clouds as I turned it on......I may not leave the house often now, and we even start with a belting game on Saturday, Arsenal V Manchester Utd, come on!!


The timing works out well for Carole's mum and Tom coming up the week after next. I doubt Tom will want to brave the icy North Eastern weather too often, so the Sports channel (with his cricket and rugby) should recompense being away from home for so long!


Although Luca pretty much already fills that role! Speaking of whom, he threw himself off his changing table into my arms yesterday (akin to a short and podgy Superman) and as I caught him my back twaeked slightly - either I'm getting old or he's getting heavy. Most likely both......He's almost two and a half stone now, where's my tiny baby son gone?


Although completely unrelated to anything, I have to repeat a quote I heard on the radio this morning. The presenters were talking about the Arsenal (football) defender Mikael Silvestre and were discussing how a mans head can simultaneously look like a fish and a potato. Very cruel, but see the photo below and see what you think.....
