Apologies to all my fans for not entertaining them in a while, it took me a hell of a long time to recover from the gaities of this week. First off, thanks to all the ISOMers and staff remaining in Manchester for a wonderful dinner ‘n’ dance at La Tasca. And to Jonny for the ‘free’ beers 😉 Secondly, an apology is due to the Liverpool fans, for the mention on these very pages of their inability to contest Milan. What a great comeback!! And what luck in the final minutes, I must add. Thirdly, a call goes out to anyone having anywhere near as much difficulty as me waking up in the morning; how feasible is the idea of morning wakeup calls? God knows I need something like that. Even the lure of sharing my thoughts with the Wild World Web is not enough.
