Bitty Weekend Bits


With 48 hours distance, and a chance to reflect, let us mention England’s World Cup Final defeat by South Africa. I think my feelings can be summed up this way - I’ve never felt so disappointed about a sport I’m not really interested in.

I went off to watch some fireworks Saturday night. Without a wife to accompany me, I decided to be a cheapskate and parked down a side road close to the field where the bonfire was, hoping I could get a nice free show. It worked, a bit, but they were using a playing field enclosed by trees, so I only really got to see the rockets that went up at the end. Not the same, it has to be said, but at least I was only out of the house for an hour.

I arrived at work today to see that the supermarket is installing its Christmas tree in the foyer. The day before Guy Fawkes Night, and they’re sprucing up the spruce already.
I know I work for them, but they are bastards.
