Not sure who was to blame for arranging this dumb Nigerian tour although rumours seem to be that we were pushed into doing it.

Either way a comfortable 5-0 win over a poor team in front of a massive crowd of around 600. Not exactly Asia Trophy standards.

Crouch got another 2 goals which is a good sign with Kanu, Utaka and Sahar adding the others

Not long been home from Meet Your Navy at Portsmouth Dockyard.

Not quite up to the level of the International Festival Of The Sea or even the old Navy Days but still a good day.

My first visit to a Japanese warship as well

And a partial apology to the Post Office, seems dropping the NanoBass through the window didn't break it, they are just very particular about what PSU they use.

Got the proper PSU, at additional expense and the NanoBass works perfectly. It's a very small unit and basically preset but offers an easy selection of bass sounds.

Trying to get hold of a NanoSynth to accompany it.

Another long drawn out transfer but like Jermain Defoe we finally got him.

Hopefully a lethal partnership next season

Well today could be a very short working day and maybe my last at H+S Aviation as they are making 20 of us redundant today. Very temptng to phone in sick!

EDIT - I survived!

I now weigh under 12st!

Time for a kebab and a curry maybe.
