Can Such Things Be?

It's been a long weekend and I'm not sure I can make sense of anything any more.

    i'll bet my weekend has been longer than yours. took my first-born to university and left her at a dorm whilst outside, all the student-rented houses were having keg parties on their porches, with the boys hoisting their cups of beer to the incoming girls.

    and my kid has given herself a new name. i called her cellphone to discover that my Alix is now "Lexie." Aiyi. I left this message: "You'd better call your mother and let me know you're okay." Instead, she texted her brother: "Tell Mom I'm fine and that she has to stop worrying about me now that I'm at college."

    Stop??? I've only just begun. One of those wretched boys on a porch lifted his cup to me with a crooked grin on his face. I knew what he was conveying: "Hey, lady, I'll be looking after your daughter now. Me and my buddies...hehe."

    I'm terrified.

    As the great Michael Winner would say to all City fans 'Calm down dears'. However, Micah Richards played like a God. He's a footballer.

    So Bryan, time for a long and classic interview with Noel Gallagher? Well done City, shame that Chelsky stole a goal...

    Fergie for England (Sven's too busy being God :-) )
