After a terrible start to 2012 for Arsenal, an injury crisis and confidence at an all time low, there seems to be hope on the horizon and some good news at last. Squillaci is injured.

Sigh.  We lost again.  And unlike our manager, I do not think that we were unlucky.  I went out with my wife last night, and had got back into a good mood by the time that we left.  Needless to say I was annoyed with the results.  I knew that Sunderland would be a hard match and I was surprised to get the three points last weekend there.  And I can not blame this one on a lack of pace as both our pacy players were on the pitch. And we still lost.

Anyway, to today.  The kids loved spending the morning with my mother, which was great as my wife and I needed the rest after an enjoyable night out.  (We got to play table football!)  Woke up to find my mother reading them story after story after story.  They had tried to be quiet, but lets face it, they are kids, and small ones at that.  So they failed.  But, once I woke up, I took the kids downstairs and my wife got some more sleep.  Later, my Mum wanted a walk with the kids (it was a beautiful day) so my son used his scooter and my daughter her bike, to get to the shops.  They loved that, they being the kids as well as my Mother.  Later we went to see one of my uncles, who I have not seen in ages, literally years (my fault really) and the kids, were really well behaved and then spent time with one of my cousins who was brilliant keeping them occupied.  The picture above is one that my daughter made then.

Anyway, time to go, hope you all take care.
