Compass Rose is moving!!

That’s right folks, after two and a half years of happy blogging with blogger everything is moving! Everything on this site has been shipped to http://athenia1939.wordpress.com/. This brings all four of my current blogs under one roof and allows for better access and navigation to all my wonderfully exciting thoughts and opinions.

I hope you’ll join me over at the new site and continue to flatter my sense of self worth.

Many Thanks,

Wha - !?

I’m a bloody Conservative! When the hell did that happen? It just struck me as I was browsing through the Tory website for like the tenth time today – I’m a Tory! Give me a ballot paper and I’ll tick their box. Hell, give me an innovative campaign like Boris Johnson’s was, and I’ll even give them money!

Fifteen frightening months

When things aren’t going anywhere I sit around bored to tears and convince myself that I am capable of so much more. And yet when things do finally start grinding forwards I am filled with terror because I am convinced that I am actually incapable of any of it.

The 8.57 to Leeds

So I'm on the train heading down to Leeds. Me and my old house mate have tickets for Elland Road to see the last game of the season against Gillingham. Oddly enough I was at Elland Road for the last end of season game too. As I remember rightly a certain Ipswich centre forward scored a last minute goal to send them down to League 1. This was shortly followed by the unsightly spectacle of the entire Ipswich Town football squad running for their lives as ten thousand very angry yorkshiremen pursued them off the pitch. I have to say that if our central defenders had utilised the pace they demonstrated in that occasion during the rest of season perhaps we wouldn't have finished in mid table obscurity.
