A Well Earned Treat



After almost two months on a strict diet we were excited to discover that yesterday's lunch included two squares of dark chocolate. It was delicious but putting away the remaining twenty odd squares of the bar was frustrating in the extreme. According to the diet plan we've got about six weeks before we can have another piece.




I just read that the Liverpool Chairman spent two days talking to Fernando Torres about his future at Anfield. Now I like Fernando and appreciate that he is a wonderful footballer but what is there to talk about for two days? It will be a sad day for us Liverpool fans if he goes but it must be a pain for the rest of the team to be constantly listening to talk about whether he and Steve Gerrard are going or staying. Let's get it sorted out soon and remember that there are eleven players in the side and not just two. It was Dirk Kuyt who played more minutes than any other Liverpool player in South Africa. And you don't hear him moaning.



Congratulations to those who campaigned to stop Nick Griffin getting to take tea with the Queen. Your campaign was successful and managed to give his tiny minority party of thugs, racists and fascists blanket coverage in every newspaper and on every news bulletin. A classic own goal. You should have kept quiet and, with any luck, he might have choked on a cucumber sandwich.

There's a busy day ahead so I'm keeping the blog short. I'm dedicating today's video to friend and true Welshman Mark Jones of Workhouse Marketing of Ribchester.I'm grateful to ITN news for bringing it to my attention. A brilliant parody on Jay Z and Alicia Key's tribute to New York, it's a tribute to Newport. Where else? "Keep your Big Apple. We'll have a tangerine." Priceless.
