We Scored Three Goals

Pooh Sticks in Chesham
Very quiet weekend comparatively - Martin was in bed ill all weekend so didn't go out to play on Saturday evening so just stayed in and worked on Fri and Sat night. Just as well he was really, I played for the 3's on Saturday again, up in Witney this time (who said I only play home games!) and at centre half. Rather fatigued by the end of it - don't worry we lost though, 6-3 - my jinx on all teams is still in tact. We were 4 down in about 10 minutes until Pete Westaway moved to centre defensive midfield and took control of the game. We got it back to 4-3 down at one stage but alas they broke whilst we were trying to find an equaliser. Good fun though and looking forward to this weekend's game. The injury was slightly worse on Sunday morning than it has been since I returned - but fine by Monday so think I should make the end of the season which is good.

On Sunday we had a very pleasant day, a meal in Chesham round at an old school friends - Jon Dyas. A beautiful old house next to the Chess river and Chesham Moor and a lovely roast lamb :-) Went for a rather wet walk round the chess - where apparently there are a few kingfishers. R & J loved getting wet and muddy in the stream surrounding banks. Here the four tinkers were playing pooh sticks under a bridge.

I've been agonising whether to stand for Parish Councillor again - I would absolutely love to do it again but the reason I gave up last time was I didn't have enough time - and as Sarah pointed out - if anything I have less time now. Agonising over whether to put myself forward or not. Been asked to an interview Wed evening so will have to decide by tonight I suppose.

Sarah's birthday last week too - had a lovely meal with the Birger family all popping round for a take away Thai - very nice evening indeed. Photos will go up on Facebook soon.
