Speaking of Women's football

 

My friends Chris and Rebecca came to visit London- Bringing with them there children Sophie and Callum. I also had the pleasure of meeting Rebecca's father and brother 

We went to the Natural History Museum- 

I also attended a woman's football match. Which was nice

I took a trip down to Brighton. This cost about 40 pounds. I enjoyed the day out

It was nice to be beside the seaside. I did feel a little sad -as my daughter la Malchera is in a sense on the other side of the sea

There are wind turbines in view of Brighton Beach 

Brighton is a pebble beach- not unlike Waikiki or the Costa Verde

I took a walk along the Pier. I dodged seagulls. I saw young ladies in bathing suits. It was quite pleasant 

Brighton does have a problem with homelessness I wonder if it pleasant after dark

I was looking for a pound land to buy flip flops - perhaps a cheap pair of shorts. So I could paddle alas there were none. There were restrictions of what you could take into the ground

So I took a train to the ground- The train trip took about 10 minutes. There were lots of school children on the train- Lots of Norwegians - I saw one family who were QPR fans 

Brighton have a lovely stadium the views are great- The South Downs

I feared  I saw the England band!

I had a beer on an open top bus. Then I met my friends

Well the Match was a walk over by England. It was a little disappointing I would have preferred a tenser game. I felt sorry for the Norway fans=oft young children and young women Who had come a long and way and spent money to be disapointed

It was a lovely spectacle A good natured crowd-Mexican waves- turning the lights down in the stadium so you can see the sparkles of camera flashes 

I had a decent burger and a few pints 

Going home was a long wait- Very hard for the children and babies in the crowd. Old hands pointed out this always happens at match days

Song for today ``There’s gotta be more…’’

I am borrowing this content for a moment. Yes I am aware I have a child’s musical taste http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUOcQnWbk_U&feature=related I used to catch this song,on one of the music channels, a few years ago.  I liked it. Its a nice enough song.  Stacey O, is a sweet young lady. Who tired of the music business and became a volunteer in Africa. I have been listening to it all day today. I downloaded if from Amazon. It catches a moment in adolescence when, you start working, and its mopping floors, or loading books onto barrows. You go to college and its waiting around all day for three hours of lectures, eating instant noodles, and maybe watching Star trek, or the Simpsons  and going to bed. So you go to the club on the weekend. You go to the underwear party. You get drunk, but that’s it isn’t it

Malchera in High school

Image
Will from the in-betweeners, with bad skin, look at the area arround my left eye. I have just had a bout of conjuctiveitis. That and my half smile, to conceal my cracked incisor and dirty teeth... I don't know why I actually possess this picture. School Photographs, now there is racket. They take you out of class, and take your picture, and charge you for the picture. Anyway, my mother never paid for the school photographer. She had 4 children in the same school,  and paying for 4 photographs, would not have been cheap. I do remember the day though. Before me, the busty Kelly Panei, had gone first. The photographer had made a crack about beauty and the beast, so I knocked over his stand on the way out... But for years after, this was my mental image of myself...
