And I don't know which way it's gonna go

If it's gonna be a rainy day
There's nothing we can do to make it change
We can pray for sunny weather
But that won't stop the rain
Feeling like you got no place to run
I can be your shelter 'til it's done
We can make this last forever
So please don't stop the rain

James Morrison - Please Don't Stop The Rain

I said, oh wow, look at me now

It's not about the £££ $$$ €€€

......cha-ching cha-ching

Can we all slow down and enjoy right now

Rainy Day Friends

Never seen hail like todays.

I swear someone above is having fun with Lincolnshire. Since the hosepipe ban has come into effect it's not stopped raining!

Claret & Blue Sky At Night....

.....safety in sight?

But we're tied to the 90's

We seemed to be spoilt in the 90's for sporting moments & the soundtracks to accompany the memories (Pavarotti / New Order at Italia 90, Freddie Mercury with the Barcelona Olympics in 92 & the Lightning Seeds Euro 96). It may be that they were my nostalgic childhood years but I think it was more than just that. In a world where sport/athletes hadn't yet become super professional & satellite tv hadn't flooded the output of football in particular it there seemed to be a more raw special quality to it. I visited Wembley three times in the 90's but with London 2012 fast approaching over to you Freddie for a bit of nostalgia....

I hope a generation of children will be inspired by the sport/music mix later this year. I have a feeling the Elbow song will do us proud.

A ticket to the show

Moneyball - So i've read the book & seen the film this week, just the (baseball) shirt to get! Was a great example of how a film takes fact (though I'm sure the book doesn't tell all the stories totally altogether true to life either) and re works it for the benefit of making a hit hollywood movie. I guess they know there stuff cause the bits below were a reworking of bits in the book *cough* entirely different, but they really touched me :)
