On the road to glory!!
Waiting in the stands for the game to start.
The Urchins in action!
The packed stand
The tension starts to show for Gerkin and Clive.
In the bar at half time....missing the Wakering Equaliser!
A momentous night!
Finally, some silverware for the Urchins trophy cabinet!!
It was a nice afternoon, so we went for a walk over the fields....though these are now called The Ingrebourne Valley Greenway, leading up to Hornchurch Country Park
A large group of people got together at The Lamb Tavern in Leadenhall Market (where else?) for a memorial pint of Young's remembering Mike, the large turnout indicative of how fondly remembered he is.
It was Mother's Day in the U.K. yesterday, here's me, Mum and Dad with CD of the Helen Merrill album that Dan Walsh kindly downloaded for us. On the floor is Grace and her dog Millie
On Saturday, we walked down from Hampstead tube, to Primrose Hill then along the Regent's Canal.On the way from the tube we passed a road called Marty's Yard..in which was an organization called The Philadelphia Association - Coincidence or what?
On Sunday, we headed down to Southend, where it was an extremely sunny day, if a bit breezy. Here we are out on the end of the Pier.
Rune's trip to West Ham was a disappointment...even though we saw Carlos Tevez' first goal from a free kick, it sadly ended in defeat.
Even the Beijing Olympic mascots at half time couldn't bring any luck...
So in the end there was nothing else to do except drown his sorrows in The Spotted Dog
Rune goes on a bender in the Dick Turpin, before hitting 'The cupboard of doom'...can Lemmy keep up?
Rune's over for the West Ham / Tottenham game tomorrow, so how better to prepare for the game with some Pie and Mash at Robins in Ilford!!
We didn't see them set up or dismantle this little mini stage halfway through the concert...very cleverly done!
Quite a spectacular light show at the end!
Here's a photo of the birthday girl and boy...taken sneakily!
Meanwhile Markus was very proud of his new earring...even if it is only magnetic...
He's become quite an artist...though his main topic seems to have a Satanic influence ;-)
Leif was happy to relax and watch the Skiing on TV while the snow fell outside...
