How Gucci helped me get married

Friday, June 30th, 2006

Whilst many people might look at my wife Rachel and I and think, “ah, what a happily married young couple”, it didn’t actually start out that way. The truth is that the first time I asked her out on a date she made it abundantly clear that she wasn’t in the slightest bit interested. Not […]

Books, books, books

Tuesday, June 27th, 2006

The people who know me well know that I love books. I love reading and find it very relaxing. I am able to read quickly as well as having several books on the go at the same time. I can’t remember the last time I didn’t have a book on the go. Anyway, as […]

I feel like shooting most English journalists

Monday, June 26th, 2006

Ok, maybe that title is a little dramatic, but reading the reports of England’s 1-0 win over Equador yesterday are just so depressing. The media seem determined to tear England apart rather than accurately report the match. Don’t get me wrong, there was nothing amazing about England’s performance yesterday, but neither did we look like […]

Love is…

Friday, June 23rd, 2006

My friend Dean in his latest vox post asks the question, “what is love?” These are the thoughts that have filled my mind so far as I’ve reflected on it.
Love is the essence of life and the fuel for hope. It inspires courage and compels sacrifice. It is the only command that results in freedom; […]

England vs. Brazil (very funny!)

Thursday, June 22nd, 2006

It is just before the England v Brazil match. Ronaldinho goes into the Brazilian changing room to find all his team-mates looking a bit glum.
“What’s up?” he asks.

“Well, we’re having trouble getting motivated for this game. We know it’s important but it’s only England. They’re **** and we can’t be bothered.”
Ronaldinho looks at them and says, […]

The countdown begins…England vs. Sweden

Tuesday, June 20th, 2006

It’s now just 8 hours until England play one of our bogey teams - Sweden - in our third group match of the World Cup. We haven’t beaten them for 800 years (approximately) - ok, really “just” 38 - and even having a Swedish coach hasn’t helped our cause. Let’s hope we put an end […]

Go USA!

Sunday, June 18th, 2006

What a good result for the USA today. Who’d of thought they’d get a draw against Italy after their dismal performance against the Czech Republic? Well here’s a picture of Rachel expressing her support for the USA during the game…I hope our American readers appreciate that!!

 
 

C'mon England!

Thursday, June 15th, 2006

I’ve just got back home in time for the match. Traffic is crazy. Everyone is leaving work early to get home for the game! You can’t beat the English for supporting the national team.

What’s your prediction for the score? I’m feeling positive and going for 3-0 to England.

It's time to flock to Flock (This is a must!)

Wednesday, June 14th, 2006

Well after releasing their developer edition some months back, Flock have now released the first beta edition of their new web browser. I’ve been trying out the developer edition for the last month or so and love it. It is definitely my browser of choice. If you do quite a bit of blogging, then this […]

3-0 down and still time to concede more!

Monday, June 12th, 2006

We’ll I’ve just watched the Czech Republic put their 3rd goal past the USA. It’s not looking good for you guys on t’other side of the pond. Looks like you’ll all need to get behind England instead (if you haven’t already)!! Considering the USA is ranked 5th in the world according to FIFA, it’s been […]
