Billy Idol Rocks

Went to see Billy Idol on Friday night at Brixton Academy. He was brilliant again - the last time was at the Astoria 12 years ago - which was his last gig in the UK. I must be getting old though as Charlie and I didn't get right down the front and jump around with the rest of the 30 somethings in the crowd!! lol. My ears are still ringing two days later - which is a bit worrying but hey ho.

Played for the second xi yesterday, we lost our first game of the season 2-0 to wycombe. We were all over them in the second half, plenty of short corners but couldn't tuck any chances away - I didn't have a single shot in the match but laid a few beauties up - but had a quiet game. Wycombe came at us hard, were stick tackling at every opportunity and trying to by physical, which we knew would happen but didn't seem ready for it - i love that kind of game - can use my experience against the youngsters trying to be hard - rather amusing as they'll always come off second best with my pace and skill - eg put the ball past them with ease and run straight through them as they obstruct (they are still moving) and then they complain (after almost breaking their stick on my stick trying to get a tackle in as they are half a yard short of pace. We were stupid and were gobby and got two of our men sent of - very dumb.

Off to the rememberance parade in 45 minutes - then straight back to do some more work - how dull. Simon is popping round for roast lamb later tonight - haven't seen much of him recently.
