There is a God.......

and he (or she) smiled as Alan Lee headed the ball in the back of the net with only 2 minutes to go.

A big thank you to the Tractor Boys for, not only relegating the dirty scummers, but also making sure that the Mighty Tigers are playing Championship football again next season.

I will post about my holiday eventually.....honest.

Made it back from Dad's yesterday. At the moment I feel like I have a hangover but without the headache......kind of fuzzy. I have no attention span and have a habit of zoning out, should make returning to work tomorrow quite interesting.

Pictures and blog entries about my trip will follow soonish.

Just got back from watching Craig Ferguson record his Late Late Show. I think I quite fancy him.......

Thought I'd better post....as I'm on holiday I can't quite be arsed to blog. However I have been keeping a written diary which I'll type up when I get home. Topics covered include....

- Why is American telly crap?
- Will Heather Mills McCartney's leg fall off during Dancing With Stars
- News in America keeps people stupid
- Why American's can't drive
- Ripoff Britain
- A review of Grindhouse
- Why dollar stores rock

The weather so far has been poo.......overcast until 2pm, then the sun burns through, means I've only shot 3 rolls of film so far which is a little poor.

Off to CBS tomorrow to watch the taping of a talkshow. Thankfully it's not tuesday....otherwise Quentin Tarantino would be dodging rotten eggs.

Finally made it to Dad's at 12.45pm on Sunday night, nearly 5 hours late. By the time when got all the luggage in the house and unpacked we'd been awake for nearly 24 hours.

The delay was caused by a combination of things....

- the plane being 2 hours late in Heathrow
- us arriving at LAX and the ground crew not expecting us or willing to take the bags off
- an 1hr and 30 min wait to get through immigration - our timing was bad, flights from Mexico, Thailand and Hong Kong arrived before us making the queues long and slow as everyone was given the third degree (makes me laugh that there are signs everywhere that say that they treat everyone with respect......I suggest the sign writers spend some time there!)
- the 405 being the world's largest car park at midnight on a Sunday. 6 lanes of traffic jam packed and not moving.....all because a car broke down.

We decided to take things easy today. We went to the shops. I broke the only rule that I set myself (no buying DVD's) when I found a copy of THX 1138 for $4.99 (2.50 in proper money).

I am hoping to get togging tomorrow, it'll be less hazy and hopefully there'll be more definition in the clouds so I can crack open the newly relaunched Ilford SFX 200 film.
