    Fantastic. Now let's turn our attention to Cheltenham v Fleetwood. Cheltenham, in their 11th league game of the season are still on a grand total of 0 league goals.

    They're almost guaranteed to change that on Saturday, because it's what we do. I was going to say it's got Curtis Davies' name written all over it, but he's just been sent off so that's a blessing.

    Cheltenham will set a new league record tonight if they fail to score.

    I too had visions of Dr Derby breaking their run with a Davies goal, so at least that's off the table.

    This is probably the best chance since we took the record for our 11 points to be beaten.

    Come at me all you nay sayers!

    It might have been, until you opened your yawning gap, in the same way you reckoned the league should have just awarded us promotion last season, and we promptly went into reverse. 

    Not only are you stupid, you don't learn either.

    Also got back at 3am from Almerimar, Dad lives on a yacht out there in the Marina, don't get any ideas he's loaded, it's actually a pretty cheap way to live.

    Anyhow, it's the first time I've been to Spain in a non tourist area and you have to butcher your way through Spanish in some bars.

    What was weird though is the tapa, not tapas as we would call it, you get a free dish with a drink in some places, others it's 50 cents.

    Sounds great, but a typical offering and bare in mind this is a non tourist area,

    Salad, fried fish, ribs, pork, meatballs....hamburger, nuggets.

    They could also be hit and miss, this is fried fish in one place and yes that's on a bed of ready salted crisps with pickled anchovies, not fried.

    Needless to say, we didn't go back to that one.

    Where other places, not tapa, nor particularly "Spanish" as it was one of the two English bars, €20 for 2 meals and a drink.IMG_3527.jpeg

    Oh and the sunsets, no filter.....

    Definitely going back, even got keys for the yacht now so we can go if he's somewhere else round the world.

    The pickled anchovies probably taste amazing.

    It took me a decade of Polish Xmas celebrations to try the pickled fish, and it's really nice.

  4. I really don't know why we acknowledged the two disasters in any form.

    Surely that's for us to do as individuals, in our own time, if we so wish.

    They both happened on another continent, have nothing to do with a game in the 3rd tier of English football, and I don't imagine the solidarity displayed would even register in either affected area.

    In all likelihood, Malaria and malnutrition kill more Africans every single week than these two disasters, yet we don't give them a weekly round of applause.
