Let's hope the new birthday year brings some mellowness into your postings...

I couldn't believe that West Ham only played one man at the back against Jermaine Defoe in the last minute. Terrible! I felt sorry for Robert Green although I was more gutted Berbatov actually didn't score a hat trick as it would have helped my fantasy team out no end!

Continuing my Weller fest of late...

With recent day car design trends they often integrate them somewhere in a cluster of lights that may make it look like there is no indicator. But then it's only obvious if/when they actually ...

Happy belated birthday Red. I hope you had a great day and are not feeling the consequences too much today!

Perhaps I'll get to buy you a birthday drink or few later this year. And a wedding congratulations drink.

Worse - I can just SEE it :lol:

Perhaps I should buy it to be the first person to review it!
