...came over me during the second half. By the final whistle it had settled in, and I was happy to do anything to occupy my mind. So, I did something I hate, I assembled a flat pack piece of furniture for Mrs Boston. Though delighted, she realized I wasn't well and offered to cook this evening's dinner (Mrs B isn't usually one for domestic stuff) which I accepted. Once my carpentry project was done, I cleared the snow from the driveway, by shovel, again to keep myself busy. Then I decided to walk the dog, which I do every day, but having noticed the chilly temps and in an effort to lighten the mood, I decided it was perfect conditions to wear a scarf (penny drops), why I have loads of 'em, brought over to this country with me when I moved, they've been in the bottom of a drawer ever since. Upstairs I go, dig around and pull out a big wooly variety with a large club crest on it. Wrapping it around my neck with the badge on full display, off I went, even popping into the hardware store for a tub of putty as we're refurbishing windows taken from a historic building at the moment. Returning home, Mrs Boston said she'd never seen me wear a scarf in our 37 years of marriage, which got me thinking, when was the last time I'd worn club colours? Y'know, I'm pretty sure it was the Derby 5-1 fifty odd years ago, when I'd sported a white silk with blue trim.
Suspect 2026 will be a strange year. |

Amusingly, the BBC have their attendance listed as 74,649. [Post edited 1 Jan 17:06]

Extremely disappointing performance. Not like Norwich were much better, it's just how flat we were, especially gutting when we know there's a number of players in this squad who can really move when it suits them.

We really should stop using it as allotments in the close season. |
