Here Comes the Weekend ...
What to expect in London tomorrow ?? Maybe not ...A couple of fairly "heavy days" at work (Thursday and today) and this is the time when many people say "TGIF" - I'll say it - but there's one more day of work to go before I can say "TGISA" !!!
Going to be a funny old day tomorrow - only available football to be honest is Ashton United v Retford Town - which is kicking off at 1300 hrs due to some (to me anyway) misplaced idea that EVERYONE wants to watch the Wales v England game at 1500hrs. OK I'll watch it - but I'll be rushing round tomorrow morning in the hope that I can get the majority of the Ashton game in first ...
Going to be a quiet weekend here at "Maison Smiffy" - Mrs Smiffy and daughter are, as we "speak", on their way to London to stay with mates before heading into the city to join the "anti-cuts demo" - were I not working I'd be there too. It would be nice (ha !) to see this "pseudo Government" to look long and hard at the diverse cross-section of people who will be marching tomorrow - but no doubt their eyes will be focussed on the tiny tiny minority of the "usual suspects" - and they'll be hoping the the damage etc that these balloons cause will help to deflect from the main attraction (and keep the Mail/Express-reading 'holier than thou' zealots happy !). Worth mentioning that these people will be marching in support of the police as well - so hopefully (again !) the (on-duty) boys and girls from the Met will be taking note (especially as many off-duty bobbies will be on the march). I did mention "kettling" to Mrs Smiffy - but she does understand that this does not refer to a nice cuppa at the Ceylon Tea Centre in Regent Street !!
So - in her absence - DragonForce is blasting out as I pen these notes (to be followed by some Power Quest !) - and if they don't return on Saturday night I might well get up dead early on Sunday and take big (170-500) lens out to get some "sunrise" photos of Oldham, Manchester and beyond from the top of the hill near us (a place called Hartshead Pike) - been wanting to do this for a while ... and the weather forecast looks promising as well !
Enough for now ... for those interested here's some Power Quest for you to get your head round ...
As I said on here many years ago (August 29th 2007 to be exact !) - DragonForce go into battle with a "Grrr" on their face - Power Quest go into battle with a smile and a cheery dispostion !!!
