I'm not wearing my lucky socks, they may be heading to the knackers yard at the end of the season.

Jon's vacuuming his study.  Not only is it a first that he is vacuuming, it's also been ages since that room was vacuumed due to the mess in there.

Another positive for today.  We have to win so he does more housework.

for the Stoke game I abandoned the £10 a time car park and found one for a fiver. Since then I've been cutting back every season and I now park in a dodgy back-end street and let a little ginger-haired lad mind my car for a £1 a game.

Are you Randy Lerner?

If so, using your 'car' as a metaphor for 'the team' is absolute genius, you miserable yank.

Put some sealant on the waste pipe in the kitchen.

Come on the lads!
You have had a blow job à la "Postman always comes twice", haven't you?

Found my lucky pin. Wore it when we beat the blues 5-1 alon with many other victories. Lost it when I moved house but managed to find it again.

i've been out for a 50k bike ride, i'm now home showered and fed and i intend to kip through the game. Hopefully I'll dream nice things as every game i've been awake for has been a living nightmare!

Then later I am out for dinner with a load of Albion fans... could be interesting!

Had my hair cut.

And for the first time in years, said a little prayer. I doubt I have favours in hand with the mythical ruler of all, mainly due to my non believing ways, but while doing a number 2 a little while back I had a word or two.

Here is hoping it has worked.

This morning I put my right sock on first - something I havent done since the Enkleman debacle. I've also emptied the dishwasher top shelf first.

Come on Villa.
Top shelf first you mentalist!?! I should come round and  confiscate the thing.

I have put away my oldest shirt (mid 90's) that I got out to wear to the Bolton game.
