Snow Good ...

... well the tilapia was cooked - not impressed mind - boney, oily and - to me - bland despite my best efforts with oranges and herbs. Sorted out the pictures from today (the bath can wait !!) :

We tried - we bloody well tried !

Have to say special mentions to Debbie who - after a 12 hour night shift - put in another 6+ hours shifting snow - shows how much people really want to see football - there were even Celtic directors mucking in as well. Tomorrow may be off (again not official - check tomorrow) but it certainly helps towards getting the Trophy game against Corby next Wednesday on - with me in possession of a "freebie", and the Glossop/Mossley game already in doubt, we can all feel that it wasn't a fruitless exercise. I only wish that we could raise a similar "army" up at Mossley now and again.

Still - football tomorrow - somewhere - still baulking at paying obscene railfares to Colwyn Bay, so I might even drive somewhere - and "snap sober" (eek !) - we'll see what pans out - or you never know, Bower Fold might drain and thaw, and 100 people may turn up tomorrow to clear the rest - a man can dream ....

And I WILL get round to the George Borowski pix this weekend - a cursory scan shows some good'uns of all the artists who got up and sang last night - so I need to put some work into it to give them all a fair crack of the photographic whip.

God my back - ibuprofen/more beer calls ...

On the bright side, no football to watch anywhere, but the postponement at Colwyn Bay removes the temptation to pay a ridiculous amount for the train journey.

bet Mossley to Lancaster day return was a bargain compared to venturing into Wales?

. . . and Lancaster was probably better than watching Manchester League at Gregorians, courtesy of their relatively weather-proof surface at Platt Lane, but at least it was a game of football.
