Got up today and went into town on my own. It seemed stupid both of us going down as we didnt need much and it was raining heavily. No point both of us looking like drowned rats. So i started out and it wasnt too bad (a little drizzle), but by the time i had reached the town centre the heavens had opened. Anyway i didnt need much so after about an hour or so i was back on the bus (by this time it had stopped raining again, and by the time i got of the bus it was chucking it down again. So i returned a lot wetter than when i left. The rest of the day i spent trying to stay warm (man was it cold yesterday).
The evening i watched two football matches. The first was Rubin Kazan against Barcelona (a really good game). I didnt know much about Rubin before this champions league and i can say that they have definitely surprised me (i bet i am not the only one, just ask Barcelona who Rubin beat in the first meeting 2-1 at the Nou Camp !!!!!). A superb defensive display saw Rubin steal another point from Barcelona, although at the end they had two chances to steal all three points and really embarrass Barcelona.
The second game was Lyon v Liverpool and i can honestly say that on the balance of play and the way we played that we deserved the win although all we came away with was an undeserved draw 1-1. The game was edging out to a 0-0 until Ryan Babel (a second half substitute) scored an absolute screamer from about 25 yards with his right foot. Just when i thought that we had got the victory a large piece of luck undid us. The ball looped up in the air and went over our defence for Lisandro to hit a shot past Reina and my dream was shattered. It now means that we have to hope Lyon can beat Fiorentina, and then we have to beat Fiorentina at home also to even get close to qualifying for the second round. Come on the reds !!!!!!!!
Decided to watch a movie last night that we had only ever seen half of. I will explain. About 5 years ago we joined lovefilm and had a lot of films in a ten month period including this one (its called Paycheck). The only problem we had when had this of Lovefilm was that about an hour in the picture froze and wouldnt play so we sent it back and they sent us another one which did exactly the same, so we decided we werent meant to watch it and gave up. However we acquired the film about three weeks and last night we finally got to see it in its entirety. A good fast paced action film with a lot of twists and turns. A good watch if you want to watch a futuristic thriller....
Finished with episode 1 of the second series of Lie to Me which is a brilliant US drama starring a very good British actor name Tim Roth. I wont give too much away other than telling you that its about a company that specialises in being able to know if you are lying just by watching the way your face and gestuers give you away when asked direct questions. Give it a go and you wont be disappointed..
