Clocks Go Forward (it's a song)

Morning all, it's been a while...

I returned to work yesterday from a weeks leave. Didn't get up to much, just relaxed and recharged. It's funny how even on my second day back, the thoughts of the holiday have disappeared and it feels like I've never been away. Work is so depressing!

We were going to go camping but the couple of sites a called all said they were waterlogged. I'm slowly building up the camping gear, hopefully in the next couple of weeks we should have everything we need and not need to borrow anything. I need to draw a line soon though as we are in danger of going over the top. The latest acquisitions have included an electric hook-up cable, a fan heater and an electric cool box. We'll be needing a van soon...

Still suspended from the local... as you can see I have a countdown timer on the right hand side of the blog, slowly counting down the days.

F1 and Moto GP seasons have both started. As usual I'm following the F1 and supporting Hamilton, and for the first time, I've gotten in to Moto GP. I suppose I should really be supporting Sheffield born James Toseland on his Tech 3 Yamaha in his first season but I seem to be drawn to four times Moto GP World Champion, Italian Valentino Rossi on his Fiat Yamaha.

The footy team are about to play the Scousers three times in a row over six days. The first of those is a Champions League home tie tomorrow night. My big boss is a loyal Liverpool fan so there is money riding on the outcome of all three matches. I hope I don't lose, he earns more than me...!

Today's blog is brought to you by an old favourite, Victoria Beckham. Some people hate her, others just have a mild dislike, but I kind of find her attractive, in a shallow sort of way...
