As of now, AFP reports that Arshavin has signed for £12m. Here's hoping, all the news seems to be like a pendulum today.

Ah, the Australian Open. Friday's semi was pretty unbearable, seeing as I was at my desk at work. So I was restricted to just flicking back and forth at the BBC Sport website and bashing F5 every so often. At one point I was ( Read more... )

Work is running me ragged at the moment, everybody is so busy. But hey, in this economic climate, it's quite comforting to be busy. It's the longest week I've had for a bit, and one of the most challenging, but it was good on Friday night to get a thanks and a well done from the boss. It keeps me motivated, I suppose.

God bless the red button, I ( Read more... )

Well, sitting here in Arsenal shirt, bandana and wristbands (well, what other way does a gal have to show her support for Rafa Nadal, eh?) awaiting the tennis. Apparently it's not on the radio, although I can probably live without our always very biased commentators fawning over Andy Murray as if he's the best tennis player since sliced bread. Fawn ( Read more... )

Aha, yes, I have crawled out from under my stone.

I hope that everyone had a good holiday season. My Nan's gone home so Christmas is officially now over and I am preparing myself for going back to work tomorrow with a large Martini and attempting to sort the pile of crap that I've been stockpiling at the end of the bed for the last 6 months. Thanks ( Read more... )

I hope everybody out there is well and OK :) Although you've all probably given up on reading me, if you hadn't a long time ago! Thanks tomiss_lollo for giving me a nudge.

Well, I haven't blogged in a long time, but I suppose the best way for me to recap is through all the amazing sporting events that I have witnessesd/attended in the last 6 months or so.

I'll ( Read more... )

What a horrid weekend for the Arsenal. That tackle was just awful and I'm so gutted for Eduardo, not only will he miss the rest of the season in England but of course, Euro 2008. I was so looking forward to seeing him play in the summer. I was just so depressed during Match of the Day, these things trascend the scoreline when someone gets so badly ( Read more... )

Had a lovely night out last night for Tash's birthday, nice meal, lots of silliness and innuendo.  I never fail to be amazed by all the folk milling about in London, there were so many people going to restaurants and the theatres. Oh, and annoyingly loud teenyboppers coming back from Spice Girls at the 02 making so much noise I wanted to ram their ( Read more... )

My aunt died suddenly on the 27th Dec and we had her funeral yesterday afternoon.  My Mum's been coping alright really, I've tried to encourage her to talk about all the good memories and good times.  When she told me in the week that she had lost another sister I told her to remember all the joy and good times she'd had with them, because there ( Read more... )

I hope that everyone had a good Christmas/holidays, and Happy 2008!

Seeing as there's bugger all on TV as usual, here are my thoughts about my favourite tracks of 2007. In no particular order, some just from memory and some from my top played this year. Lyrics are not mine, but are used in worship!
