I hope so, this has been an embarrassment on what is a major sporting spectacle.

Lets move on, and see this decided fairly on the water!

Tania is growing up…

Friday, November 23rd, 2007

Just a bit of family trivia!

Tania is nearly two, and coming out of nappies. We only started last weekend, and she’s doing great!

We were obviously a little pensive, over what can be a tricky phase, but so far, so good!

The last couple of days at nursery she’s managed to stay dry, and this morning she woke up dry for the second time! Thats two nights in a row :-D
This has me very feeling very proud of her!

Yet more bad sports news!

Yet more bad news!

The 2009 America’s Cup in Valencia has been postponed because of a legal row.BMW Oracle Racing and champions Alinghi have been in a dispute over Desafio Espanol’s status as challenger in the prestigious yachting competition.

So, not only have we to wait until 2010 to see England play in an international football tournament (assuming we can qualify!), but now it looks like we won’t even be able to enjoy the spectacle that is the America’s Cup before then either!

This is leaving me feeling rather fed up!

Moved feeds to Feedburner

Monday, November 5th, 2007

Finally got around to signing up to Feedburner, and moving my feeds, it was something I had been meaning to do for a while.

In the end it was a painful process, with a plugin doing the magic on the Wordpress end.

So, to my faithful reader, please feel free to re-syndicate my content again via the new feed!

Here are the links:

Many thanks, and apologies for the inconvenience!
