Did not sleep well Saturday night at all. The clock will show that I went bed at 2.00am and got up at 12.00pm. Which means a good ten hours sleep right?...............WRONG
I must have woken up about a dozen times and maybe had two to two and a half hours unbroken sleep. Getting a bit ridiculous now...grrrrrr
Did email and then settled down to watch the football. Newcastle v Tottenham.
Good entertaining game that ended 2-2 but could so easily have ended up in a win for Newcastle at the death. Tottenham dominated the first ten minutes without doing much in front of goal. Newcastle dominated after that and despite all their possession didnt have a decent effort on goal. It looked like a 0-0 was a likely half time score. But then a goal against the run of play, a fortunate penalty (definitely a penalty) I just mean that the way it came about was fortunate. Van der Vaart scored and Spurs went in with a 1-0 lead. Didnt last long as at the start of the second half Newcastle equalised through their new striker Demba Ba. All ok at 1-1. Defoe came on for Spurs and made an immediate impression swivelling on the edge of the area before hitting a left foot effort into the bottom right corner of the goal. 2-1 and Newcastle started to press and look for the equaliser and it came not long from the end when a through pass went to Ameobi and about 16 yards out to the left of goal he hit a low show that rocketed into the bottom right corner of the goal. There was a chance in the dying minutes for Collochini for Newcastle but his swivel and shot went wide of the goal. 2-2 not a bad result.
Spoke to a few people on the phone in the afternoon, did email, survey etc.....
In the evening I did some more writing on a couple of activties for my course and also sorted some stuff out on my pc.
In the evening listened to a three Mike Oldfield cd's (Hergest Ridge, Ommadawn and Incantations) His early stuff I know but still a good listen.
Didnt watch any TV
