So - England (8th) finally win ... against Slovenia (25th), having drawn against USA (14th) and Algeria (30th) - numbers being the FIFA Rankings as at 26th May 2010. It was a job done I suppose - but hardly well done, especially when you think a late Slovenian equaliser, together with the Yanks winning, could have dumped us out - and the limited edition Oxo cube with the St Georges Cross on it would have been on the shelves pretty quickly (you must have heard the "laughing stock" quip over the last seven days - surely !). Still a little too hurried, still too many misplaced passes, still a bit nervy at the back - at least Milner got some decent crosses in - eventually !! A Sunday afternoon showdown with Germany awaits then ...
Got some more slabs down pre-match - now it's time to look at edges, retaining walls, proper pointing etc. Found some nice "garden design software" - a slight upgrade to the 'back of the envelope' version as well ...
Paper ....
Reality ...Looking to get some footings in today for the first of the required walls ... weather's cooled down a bit - which is nice. Sent back a signed copy of the job contract yesterday as well (I did leave a subtle clue last week if I remember rightly - all WILL be revealed soon, although the "cat is out of the bag" to some peeps already - suffice to say it's quite a career change !!!).
