Footy's back!


Had a visit to the Smithyveg estate Thursday evening from Paul Bastow (no jokes please, the guy's had enough misery in life having a name like that and living in Yorkshire.....see link on right to his blog). It was good to be able to advise a fellow grower with a few tips for his upcoming local show and I'm sure from his undoubted enthusiasm we'll be seeing his name in the cards at a much higher level in the not too distant future. Just a pity he's a Yorkshireman and from a Leeds United supporter's loins but hey ho. The plastic white rose of Yorkshire that he presented me with has come in very useful as a beer mat for my tea mug! Man U have always been on top!
With that in mind the Premiership season starts again today. I'm pretty sure the super reds will triumph again if we can have less injuries than last season and Rooney starts playing properly again. Bit worried about Liverpool now that that Spanish joke has gone and they've made a couple of decent signings in the close season.....a Japanese midfielder called Nikamota and the Italian defender Robatelli.

Simon Footy started last weekend and United are storming up the league with 4 points in the bag already. This is going to be our year I can feel it.

James.....I vaguely recall reading about some minor league football starting last week!

Heck of a start for Blackpool yesterday!

Paul.....that's table ya northern nob! How was the skin finish on your Sweet Candles? At a show yesterday every one on the benches looked a little on the rough side.

Simon,can you get in touch with the fellow Yorkshire Tosser Paul and tell him that I can't post any sensitive helpful comments on his blog unless I have some kind of gayboy social networking account like Aim,wordpress or typepad or a blogger account ,none of which I have.
Tell him to accept Name/Url identities like you do or he'll just keep getting homos posting comments....LOL !!!
