Never really thought much about Katy Perry.  Heard a few of her songs and didn’t dislike them, but never really had an opinion about her. Until now.
I have now decided that she is brilliant.  I wonder why…

Trevor Brooking is magic

September 10th, 2009 · No Comments · Life

Seeing Trev in the crowd at tonight’s England game reminded me…  this is what Jayne managed to get for me when she found herself on the same ship as TB last month.  Might have to get a really huge frame to put it in.

Good omen

April 10th, 2009 · No Comments · Life

West Ham are away to Spurs tomorrow.  Mark Lawrenson reckons Spurs will win 2-0. Good.
With Lawro’s appaling record in predicting results we should be OK.   Last week he thought Liverpool would draw with Fulham (they won), West Brom would beat Stoke (they lost), Chelsea would draw against Newcastle (they won), Spurs would draw (they lost), [...]

Bye bye Bellamy

January 19th, 2009 · 3 Comments · Life

Just a week ago I could well have read this news with some degree of despair, but after a weekend that saw the Hammers win well without Bellamy even on the bench I am a bit more sanguine about our future prospects.

The Year Of The Cat

December 31st, 2008 · 6 Comments · Life, Music

It is New Year’s Eve so I am casting my mind back over the past twelve months.  If you have a blog it is compulsory.  I think its a tradition or an old charter or something.  So looking back, the international year of the frog, or 2008 as it is better known, has been an [...]

One Way Or Another

November 25th, 2008 · 1 Comment · Life

What a scary season it is in the Premier league this year.  We are a third of the way through and for most ofthe teams it could go one way or another.  This is not one of those years wherea gap has opened up at thebottom – not since Harry moved to Spurs anyway – [...]

Iron Man

What a good week for Barack Obama: first he wins an election or something, apparently, which must have cheered him up a bit, but now he has the real prize – an invitation to visit Upton Park to watch West Ham.  Some people have all the luck don’t they?

Answer In The Sky

November 6th, 2008 · 1 Comment · Life

What a good news day it has been.  First it was the momentous decision by the American public to elect the nation’s first ever president who is a West Ham supporter, and then I read this: Sky and Virgin Media have settled their differences and from next week Sky One, Sky News and other channels [...]

Heartbreaker

October 5th, 2008 · No Comments · Life

I really don’t know why I let myself get my hopes up with West Ham because they always do it: tease you with the chance of something good and then slip up.  This week we could have gone from 5th to 3rd if we had won, and we were going into a home game against [...]

What’s Going On?

September 28th, 2008 · 2 Comments · Life

Could this be the season that all three newly-promoted Premier League teams survive?  I know it is only early days in the season but already Hull have as many points as Derby got in the whole of last season after beating Arsenal and West Brom have managed a couple of wins to keep them in [...]
