No Telegram Stripper

Aah, the last few days have been stunning.
Bright blue skies and glowing sunshine.
The rain has gone away :)


England produced the same old crap again – dull, boring and uninspiring – in their 0-1 loss to France in an international friendly at the Stade De France in Paris. And. I’m not happy about that. You know, I love watching sports but never been good at any of it. I love the team spirit. It’s good to cheer when someone does something great. It’s good to say encouraging things when someone misses the ball. If you knock someone over, athletes stop and apologize. No one teases. No one shows off. No one acts like a jerk. You see players struggle or triumph, persist or give up, fill with excitement or frustration, joy or anger. You see what their strengths and weaknesses are. What they like and don’t like. Most importantly, everyone is having fun. Glory to themselves, their fans, their coach, their country.

MJ CafĂ© & Restaurant, Jaya 33 – dinner with Thor, Lucius, Stella, Miss Foong, May Leng and Celtic. It was so good seeing the old gang again. Eating the most delicious lamb chop ever. Meaty, tender, so creamy…everyone’s dinner tasted great, the service was good… most importantly, the atmosphere was quiet, sophisticated, classy and relaxing – it was perfect.
