Keep Right On...

Birmingham City Football Club won the League Cup tonight.  I'm not a huge football fan, but it's hard not to be lured by the pure drama of it all.  There's goodies and baddies and hope and despair.  Just like life in fact.  And there's nothing like a good sporting celebration to help keep our minds off an unfair economy...

Blues are celebrating their first silverware since about 1963.  But I actually think it's the first major trophy they've won since they were formed.  About 130 odd years then.

I'm approaching my fiscal survival this year with the same tenacity. I just hope it's not going to take me as long as the Blues.  More beer!

Oooo ent technology grand...!

I'm feeling guilty that I've not blogged for a while, particularly, and perhaps because, this is a fairly crucial and formative time for Maverick and, I have to say, me personally. So this is an apology, but guess where I'm writing this? In me fave curry house, the Sylhet Spice, in Kings Heath, Birmingham, with a couple of pints of God's Nectar. Or Cobra, as they call it. When I think of the cost and size of computers just a few years ago and now here am I able to blog whilst waiting for a takeaway! I'm not sure why, but it makes me feel good about life and things. Or is that the short term result of God's Nectar. Mmmm.
