Farewell

To Emily, who has resigned from the international office at work. She's gone back to America after the breakdown of her marriage, and i'm very sad to see her go. We didn't even get to say goodbye to her. She was a lovely lovely woman and i wish her all the best.

After threatening a few times in the past, today i finally had my hair cut into a bob. I just decided this morning whilst drying my hair that it was getting on my nerves and i finally took the plunge this dinnertime. It's really really nice and i'm so pleased with it. It's made my hair look so much thicker and my colour stands out more too. There was loads of hair on the floor when she;d finished!

England 2 - 1 Switzerland

What a crappy match. Now it was only a friendly granted, but it was the first game under Capello and he'd called up a couple of lesser capped players like Jenas and Bentley. I thought they both played pretty well especially Jenas, and Shaun Wright phillips came on later in the match and scored a good goal from some good build up play.

One thing though. Steven Gerrard. MOTM. Who the bloody hell votes for these things! and more importantly were the people in question even watching the match! Gerrard was completely ineffective last night and went missing for large parts of the game. He'd been made stand in captain whilst Capello asesess his options. Doubt Stevie La will have much of a look in now after that sort of a performance.

Also today the Premier League want to play some matches all around the world, places including America (surprise) Australia and the UAE (no doubt due to them opening that new celeb haunt in Dubai). Now this is preposterous. Every week there's some sort of player/manager/official stating that the players are playing too much and are nearing burn-out. Make your bloody mind up! Do you want the season extended or cut? It's one or the other. Soft arses.
