2010

2010 Has been & is almost gone.

2010 was an ok year for me I guess, given the title of a Sales Manager for one of the companies I work for.

I met two of my heroes, I watched Dave Gorman do a stand up show & he signed three of his books for me & we had a chat, great fella.

I met Sir Michael Caine, well I say met, saw, went from Bedfordshire to Birmingham for a book signing, stood in line for a few hours, however not his fault but my book was taken from my hands a few minutes before getting to where he was sat signing them & sadly he hardly had time to look up so I saw Michael but no handshake or chat & a very rushed photo taken of me as I'm being pushed out of the way to make room for others.

I became an Uncle again when just as we were sitting down for Christmas dinner I got a text from my brother who's wife had just given birth a few weeks early & seeing my Dad at the table so happy was a joy to behold & gave the day a very happy vibe & there was snow on the ground so it was a very happy day.

I got Sky+ & a HD Television which has been great with me watching many episodes of The Sweeney, Minder, Hill Street Blues & Bargain Hunt.

My beloved Northampton Town beat Liverpool in the League Cup at Anfield.

I moved back into a house that I had been in many years before & it feels great to be back.

After six years apart started to get my divorce sorted out, just waiting for my decree absolute to come through.

Aims for 2011, marriage is the priority, Chas & Dave & Jethro are performing close by so hope to see them perform. The next Batman movie is doing some filming near here so shall see if I get on set as an extra & if Michael Caine is there might actually get a better chance to meet him properly even if I have to stand at the gates!!!

Would love to meet up with fellow tweeters & maybe get enough followers so I can follow more than 2001 back & to keep this blog updated with all my thoughts.
