Brrrr....

It's cold.

Not posted a blog in aaaaages, but it has been christmas so i have an excuse :-)

Christmas was really good. Got some amazing presents that i wasn't expecting including a Nintendo DS from my mum and an Ipod shuffle from my lovely Christopher. Had Christmas dinner at my dads which was scrummy and then i've basically been at chris's since with the exception of two football matches.

Match number 1 - Boxing Day - Newcastle (H)

What can i say? We won 1-0, a Ryan Taylor free kick proving the winner. We battered Newcastle, but as usual when we win, the other team were having a bad day and there's not a chance we would have beaten them other wise *rolls eyes* slightly forgetting that we have a good record against Newcastle. Lifts us out of relegation too :-)

Match number 2 - Saturday - Aston Villa (H)

After leading this one 1-0 for ages we lost 2-1. Most exciting part of the match was the goal of course, but even more exciting was that it was TITUS BRAMBLE!! who scored it! I love Titus, more of those to come i hope. I had been talking about putting money on him to be first goalscorer, wish i had now, bet he was summat stupid like 150-1! Apart from that we were shit. The pitch was really bad too which actually made it more fun to watch. Twas like the good (bad) old days. A few Villa fans were slipping and sliding all over the mud outside ala the Sunderland mud sliders (i'm sure there's clips knocking around the internet and soccer am show it virtually once a year, you have to see it if you haven't already. Hilarious!) And apparantly Gemma Atkinson was spotted outside the stadium at one of the burger vans buying a burger. Wish i'd have seen her.

So apart from that, done a bit of sale shopping and got some bargains. Biggest bargain i got today i reckon. Boots from topshop that should have been £80 but were knocked down to £30. I love sale shopping.

Saw in the new year playing Trivial Pursuit, i won. Whoop! I came from nowhere!

And today i've been back at work which is as shit as usual. Hardly seen a soul all day, but i have managed to get loads of my NVQ work done and apart from 1 statement i think i have a complete file ready to be submitted. yay!

But back to the football tonight we play Liverpool at Anfield, where we've no chance of winning, let's just hope we play well. The transfer window opened yesterday but we've been quite quiet so far. Heard a rumour from my mum today (hardly in the know ha) but apparantly we're after Darren Bent. Wonder if he'd play well with Marcus, not that we'll ever get him. can't believe Tottenham bought him for £18 million to sell him. Oh well hindsight and all that.....no, just plain stupidity!
