I bought GranthamMariner (my dad) a book…

How to be a Football Manager
by Ian Holloway


I enjoyed the kindle version.



A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.

My stepson announcing he'd changed his name by deed poll to my surname, absolutely knocked me sideways (in a very good way!). Won't be asking for the money for his Salford ticket now

He is not kidding, but he did get me a voucher for two bags of compost as well.  


Nice to know you are well stocked for toilet paper over the coming week then.

Congrats.

I took my lad to Mansfield for one of his presents.  
He said to me in the car on the way back.  
I promise to be good this year Dad.  😂😂


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Received a lovely smoking jacket, just realised I cannot wear it in BP, the pub or in my local greasy spoon.

I normally tell the family not to buy me anything as I hate taking stuff back and I'm old fashioned about 'value for money'. (tight)  Plus my birthday was at the end of November.

Two relatives put some notes inside their Xmas cards and today's shocking performance left me no alternative but to dash for some retail therapy.

As I drove back from Mansfield I slunk into 'Go Outdoors' Sale, near Brammall Lane and bought myself a smarter and warmer fleece for the Salford game. No pun intended, it's a 'Weird Fish'.
