Now in my evening years but still a child at heart. "Grow old along with me; the best is yet to be.". Friday, July 31, 2015. So, BBC Political Editor Nick Robinson is off to join Radio 4`s Today programme starting later in August. Having shrugged off the shackles of political analysis, he is also making a documentary, to be shown on BBC1 later this year, about his idol, none other than `Sir` Alex Ferguson, the curmudgeonly former manager of Manchester United. Wednesday, July 29, 2015. There`s been a lot ...

Now in my evening years but still a child at heart. "Grow old along with me; the best is yet to be.". Thursday, August 13, 2015. Away from the brouhaha surrounding the spat between a glamorous doctor and a fantasist football manager and away too from the nonsense whereby, at the last count, Manchester United were reportedly interested in signing at least 93 new players, it`s worth spending a moment or two reflecting on life lower down in football`s food chain. And the figure of 732 above? UPS, DOWNS AND ...

Now in my evening years but still a child at heart. "Grow old along with me; the best is yet to be.". Friday, August 28, 2015. Other representatives of industry and commerce are peddling the same message - the chap who runs recruitment for the NHS says that nurses should be allowed to come and work here unfettered by restrictive rules because, without them, the care of the elderly and patients in hospital cannot be sustained. Seems to me the BBC news and current affairs output is institutionally left lea...

Now in my evening years but still a child at heart. "Grow old along with me; the best is yet to be.". Friday, February 27, 2015. KARMA AT ITS FINEST. In recent years, my beloved Saints have had a few employees who have caused a bit of trouble either by behaving like a twonk, as in the case of Dani Osvaldo, or expressing a desire to leave the club for a bigger stage. Kenwyne Jones went on strike and refused to play for Southampton in order to facilitate a move to Stoke, of all places. Now I have no doubt ...

Now in my evening years but still a child at heart. "Grow old along with me; the best is yet to be.". Wednesday, August 05, 2015. Good point Snopper. It seems silly that we build these facilities then discard them for trivial reasons. Southampton Terminus Railway station is another good example. That could be the basis of a good service to London and beyond now, if the planners had had a little more foresight in the 1960s. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Kent, United Kingdom.

Now in my evening years but still a child at heart. "Grow old along with me; the best is yet to be.". Thursday, August 16, 2012. ONE RULE FOR ONE? For years now, I have belonged to a Saints fans forum and the ongoing saga of Portsmouth`s problems has given rise to just one of the threads having almost 72,000 individual posts and over 4.5million views. I confess to having made the odd comment myself, but it`s not just us Saints fans who are following the Pompey saga, as witnessed, for example, by ...2009 ...

I`ve just seen the lunchtime news and almost buried away among the reports of tragedy are two items that makes me glad I live in a civilised western democracy. The other was the report that UK air strikes have been taking place in Syria for some time, despite the fact that the UK Parliament voted against sanctioning such strikes as long ago as 2013.

Now in my evening years but still a child at heart. "Grow old along with me; the best is yet to be.". Monday, August 03, 2015. WAS YOUR JOURNEY REALLY NECESSARY? To Southampton yesterday with my eldest son to see the Saints take on Barcelona`s second football club Espanyol, in the last pre-season `friendly.`. So, to answer my own question. Was the journey really necessary? Just about. And I dread the day when I may not be able to make the journey again. Thank you, Ray. As ever, we seem to agree. Born in ...
