Four leaf clover: October 2005
http://celticdreaming.blogspot.com/2005_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 06, 2005. We can't all have Magic Swede's. As we wait for Gordon to work his spell at Celtic Park, my thoughts turned to the topsy turvy world of English International football and its Swedish manager. Now it is quite apparent that our own experience with a certain Magnificent 7 Swede is not quite being mirrored down in the affluent South. Not everything was sweetness and light however as I sat there in the erstwhile Trent Tavern in 1996 as my soul shed an invisible tear when, on that &...

Four leaf clover: Setting the scene
http://celticdreaming.blogspot.com/2006/03/setting-scene.html
Thursday, March 02, 2006. An unconventional convention (holding title). A story of mystery, intrigue, drugs (taken by the author), famous CQN posters, Paul Le Guen, a washing basket, a two metre long bath, and some mystery guests, and most importantly of all CELTIC! The story to date. In his final desolation, Brad raises his now decomposing limbs and psyche to the evil one with whom he had made the Faustian pact all those years ago, and screams. 8216;You say hello, hello! Angelina has of course realised ...

Four leaf clover: Saturday 19th November versus Rangers
http://celticdreaming.blogspot.com/2005/11/saturday-19th-november-versus-rangers.html
Tuesday, November 22, 2005. Saturday 19th November versus Rangers. A Blast from the past with an eye on the future! Estadio is here and still spending far too much time reading this mysterious concoction of personalities, wits, intellectuals, comedians, poets, and even the odd Rangers man (you are a good man Edward) on this ‘forum of forii’ that is ‘Celticquicknews’. As opposed to other blogs which tend to be influenced more by Wallace and Grommit! Crying, talking, sleeping, walking, living. There is sti...

Four leaf clover: May 2003
http://celticdreaming.blogspot.com/2003_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 24, 2003. 2003 - a Spain Odyssey. Good old Helen of Troy! Renowned from classical times as the face that launched a thousand ships. A mere thousand ships…what a puny effort! 36 years ago the simple word ‘Lisbon’ launched ships, and trains, and boats, and planes, and cars, and bikes, and an armada of every type of vessel possible as well as generating a million stories upon which, had Homer been around at the time, he would surely have based both his Iliad and Odyssey. Much mockery is spread...

Four leaf clover: June 2005
http://celticdreaming.blogspot.com/2005_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 03, 2005. Over the past few days, particularly on the excellent Paul67 Celticquicknews site, the potential for Celtics involvement through a 'market driven' investment venture in a hiqh quality, high value league of the future, has been considered in some detail. The simple aphorism that 'History repeats itself first in tragedy and then in farce' causes me major concerns. And it can definitely never be the motivation or beating heart of Celtic FC. But like that Smoker-in-denial, (2 years, 8 ...

Four leaf clover: July 2006
http://celticdreaming.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 27, 2006. The future - My last CQN Post. In the far corner the mighty combatant flexed his magnificently toned, honed, and oiled muscles as the oppressive atmosphere of the capacity filled hall raucously anticipated the bell announcing the first round. He bounced on the balls of his feet sending secondary tremors across the expanse of the ring! He was the man and everyone who was anyone not only believed it, they knew it! 8216;I was there, I knew that man, I predicted his win’! The pack of...

We're on the one road: The Sky at Night, Mugabe, the Chief, Spam and conquering my own prejudices.
http://wereontheoneroad.blogspot.com/2009/09/sky-at-night-mugabe-chief-spam-and.html
Monday, 28 September 2009. The Sky at Night, Mugabe, the Chief, Spam and conquering my own prejudices. I was the only white person on the coach! A pale imitation of their grin crossed my lips and I awkwardly returned to my seat, any residual tiredness now dissipated with the embarrassed rush of blood to my cheeks. Then as with every other sleepless night I remember, the great bane of my life returned; I started to ponder the whys of the world and the hows of life. Bill McIntosh (now re-christened McClusk...

We're on the one road: April 2009
http://wereontheoneroad.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Friday, 17 April 2009. The outback must be less dangerous.oh and Henrik. And so Sydney is now nothing but a distant, fast fading memory. Except it isn’t. How could one of the most beautiful cities and locations in the world, having etched itself on my mind like print on my palm ever become an experience that would dissolve into the miasma of amnesia. I left Sydney on the 16.20 train on Friday 10th - Good Friday - and for the first time ever in all my travelling, felt the taste of gnawing regret. I’...

We're on the one road: Magic, The Opposable Thumb and Matt Giteau
http://wereontheoneroad.blogspot.com/2009/12/magic-opposable-thumb-and-matt-giteau.html
Saturday, 5 December 2009. Magic, The Opposable Thumb and Matt Giteau. Sometimes in the travelling days or sleeping nights, memories though not specifically connected with the here and now, just creep up like a cuddle from that special place where cuddles come from. This is the first of a few that I don't want to forget and though from a long time ago, has a spine that reaches right to today. Bear with me and we'll get there. A Story in Four Parts! 8220;Stocious. I’m feckin stocious! Having told me that ...
