I always *mean* to get up early and go to listen to the choir sing from the tower at Magdalen college in Oxford ...but it never quite happens! This year I forgot! :)
There are always some daft people who jump from the bridge into the river Cherwell on May morning ...either mad (or been up all night drinking!) ...silly because the Cherwell is quite

I am ecstatic - one of the proudest moments I can remember after decades of supporting the Wolves! A team I have supported and watched regularly since I was 14 years old! And Ebanks-Blake did it - our top goal scorer returned to this game after being out for 3 games and in classic Boys Own style he and with the help of one of my other

IF we win this game we are promoted, regardless of what other teams do - and wouldn't it be fabulous to gain this status at the home game at Molineux today! Our top striker Ebanks-Blake is back after being out of the last 3 games with an injury- mind you we havn't done too badly (except the first game where we lost to Brum) and scored 3 goals in

Wolves top of Championship League with 4 points clear and 4 games to go....but it's tight at the top! I was delighted by their performance on Friday where we scored in the first minute and were 2 goals up by 8 mins! Final score was 3-0.

Went bowling after work with around 20 colleagues then most of us went to the Chinese next door for a meal. Although I like Chinese food I'm not a fan of the buffet style where you can eat all you want..........however but it turned out to be an exceptionally good 'eat all you want for 12.50' and not everything was coated in thick sweet sauces

Only one goal but it's still three points! It's a shame Birmingham didn't lose and gained a point for a draw but you can't win em all! However, Reading have yet to play (but even so they won't catch us up just yet! :)
Isn't it amazing how much better it makes you feel to see a little sunshine - and it's been wonderful here these last few days. Driving to work through the Oxfordshire countryside the hedgerows are suddenly magnificent - full of snowy white blossom, pink blossom and the warmth of the sunshine bringing out daffodils and yellow forsythia.
