But the kids loved having my Mum up. They know that Gran is there to charm, to love and to love them. We are lucky in that the kids have two great Grandmothers. My Father-in-law is great with them as well. A shame I guess about my own Dad, but three out of four ain't bad!
A blog mostly about my family. Though I also rant about other things, work, music, films etc.

What do Arsenal and a werewolf have in common? Both are allergic to silver.
Apart from the football result, it was a good weekend. I worked as usual on Saturday, and on Sunday I took the kids down to London and we had lunch with my Mum and two brothers. The kids loved it as they lap up the attention and also met Dougal, the dog. And afterwards my Mum came up to baby sit while my wife and I got a chance to go out. We stayed out late and I may have drunk a bit too much!
First France lose to England in the rugby, then they lose to Birmingham in the final! Granddad will be happy!
Right, first of all, well done Birmingham City. They deserved to have scored more that one goal by half time, Arsenal getting lucky with an offside/penalty decision.
We did not miss Fabregas, we missed Theo. And hopefully he will be back in time for the match against Barcelona. Before the match I was not too optimistic knowing that we have a poor record in the League Cup especially against 'weaker' teams winning it only twice (against Liverpool & Sheffield Wednesday) while getting beaten in the final against teams like Swindon Town and Luton. Of course Chelski beat us as well a few years ago, but that was against what was effectively a youth team.
Anyway, time to go and I will post about the kids later. (Sob.)
