I've only gone and won something!!

I've only gone and won something for the first time in my life - I am now the proud owner of a mens third xi player of the year award - which i won last night at the annual hockey dinner dance - I was ecstatic :-) The event itself passed as usual with incident and with controversy - amusing that the youngsters think this year (as with others) is the first time there has ever been anything going on!! One year I believe in the 60's someone offered to drive a lady home and the two were caught on the snooker table by their respective partners - who then also shacked up with each other - so not new.

Went to the gym on Saturday afternoon after Sarah had finished with the hockey - felt massively better than a couple of weeks ago - had no problems with pains in my lungs and felt great and fit.

Today we went searching for turf to fill the greenhouse hole in the garden - went to one on the A40 on the way in to Uxbridge - I was amazed at how large it was - think we'll be going there instead of Rowans round the corner. Going back tomorrow if the weather is ok to pick some up as it is arriving then. Mowed the lawn as well which is looking tip top. In the evening had a curry from the Sreethi which was not particularly great.

Crystal Palace drew with Norwch on Saturday - 3-3 I hope we stay up - results were favourable around us - but i'm not convinced that we are better than Southampton or surprisingly West Brom.

We think Rebecca can now crawl forward one stride but that is it - she can do backwards easy peasy so we think it is only a matter of days now until she susses it. she is unfortunately suffering from a bad cold which seems to be going to her chest and giving her a cough. She is still smiling all the time and an absolute treasure to be with and around :-)

As usual I have an incredibly busy week coming up, plenty to do with my list as long as my arms (yes plural).
