Spurs 4 – FC Twente 1
Glory days are here again!
Glory days are here again!
Glory days are here again!
I suppose that I ought to say (before I get too enthusiastic – ‘cos you know we’re going to lose the next one 10-0!)….. It’s still a silly game, anyway!
All the best

Whilst Father was over we stumbled across an outside lesson…
As an ex-teacher, I think Father was amazed…
They didn’t have things like that, back in his day!
During his stay here, Father and I visited Rochefort en Terre.
It was on the way back from Vannes and the weather was good so we made a minor (and intended, this time) detour.
Rochefort is a favourite with tourists but none the worse for that.
We wandered a bit and then sat down for a coffee….
And to watch the world go by…
All the best

On our second trip to Vannes, Father disgraced himself…
We had Moules Frites for lunch and he couldn’t finish all of his…
I expect they’ll ban him from entering Brittany again, because of that!
My Father’s name is Klaus…
I’ve seen these photos at La Gacilly many, many times…
I’d never read the bumf, though…
For some reason I did when Father was over here….
Now I know what he was up to in January 2010!
On a recent trip to Vannes, Father and I went into the fish market.
We arrived a little bit late and they were starting to pack up.
We did manage to pick up some smoked sardines (which were lovely!) and a dozen large oysters.
The Girlie took this photo whilst Father was over here on holiday…
I think she’d just told this donkey about my attempts at cooking eels?
Or maybe they were just discussing Spurs’ current form?
Either way, the donkey seemed to find it rather amusing…
All the best

During a little day trip to Vannes (where I amazingly didn’t get lost a dozen times), I spotted these bikes for hire….

West Ham 1 – Spurs 0
Chelsea lost, Arsenal lost and so, of course, Spurs had to lose as well!
I suppose that it says something that we managed to lose against the team at the bottom of the table!
We were crap; we were pathetic and we are now in 7th position in the league!
I suppose that there’s one thing left to say before I go and hang myself….. It’s a bloody silly, stupid, pathetic game, anyway!
All the best

Father did buy rather a lot of Garlic whilst he was here…
I don’t know if he just likes the taste or if he has a vampire problem?

These are some field mushrooms that we found in the back garden.
The Cep I spotted growing by the side of the road whilst driving to La Gacilly….
The Redon sculptor, Guy Lorgeret, had some beautiful sculptures on display.
Haunting and very powerful; I’ve been watching these for a few months….
Statues tell tales, you know….
I expect I’ll get disinherited for this!
All the best

The chickies seemed to be rather fond of Father….
I don’t know if it was the beard they liked….
Or perhaps they just thought he was an easy touch?
Swimming is not allowed in the river at La Gacilly…
I was going to jump in to see if I’d get arrested but…
As Father was with me, I thought it might be rude.
The Girlie and I are having a Vide Greniers in the barn over the weekend (please feel free to come, if you’re in the area)…
We’ve been busy sorting out all the stuff that we want to get rid of…
I’ve got loads of old farm implements to dispose of…
I did find a mask as well…
Not sure if I want to get rid of that!
Whilst Father was visiting, we went to Vannes a couple of times…
The second time, I got some baby Octopusses in olive oil.
I made up a very simple salad and we had them as a starter.
The Girlie and The FourTeenYearOld did not partake!
Father seemed to enjoy his visit to rural Brittany…
I hope so.
Although I do think that he may have caught the sun a little bit….
Still, you’re only young once!

Spurs 1 – Arsenal 4
We were one all and I went to bed!
Then we let in 3 goals in injury time!
We’re now out of the Carling Cup. This might be part of Harry Redknapp’s strategy as he opted to rest most of the regular players and, obviously, paid the price as the experience of Arsenal took hold in extra-time.
League performance (and another year in Europe) are more important than the Carling Cup. I just wish we hadn’t been kicked out by the Smelly Stinky Gooners!
I suppose that there’s one thing to say….. It’s a bloody silly, stupid game, anyway!
All the best
