Weekend off

No posts this weekend. Here's why.

I don't read the Saturday Herald. I refuse to. I get the paper at work and read it there during the week (reluctantly) but will never spend $$$ on it at the weekend. I despise some of the contributors and the general left slant. I could read online, but Saturday's are full on for me.

The Sunday Star Times. I subscribe to this, only because I think we have to have a weekend paper to peruse. I've always liked the paper, but it too has serious bias issues. Finlay MacDonald needs a slap, and Hubbard and Hagar are a joke. Today, it didn't really have much in it to lead me to blog.

I used to read the NBR weekly and must commence that again and start blogging from that.

Overseas papers. I read the occasional Independent from London, but not this weekend.

The things I did like this weekend were Arsenal totally outplayng Man Me and winning the FA Cup (yay!); and the retirement of two top coaches, Duncan Laing (of Danyon Loader fame) and Lois Muir, netball. They have given a combined 70 years! coaching youngsters. They have given untold spare time and effort. Hats off to them. They are true legends.

Not quite the score I predicted, but had the right team.

I was a Man U fan in the 70's when I was just a wee lad of 9 or 10 and playing football (soccer). Sigh.

Bad luck about the SKY TV folks missing the penalty shoot-out!
