Well Friday was the day for all the tickets to arrive - first the Barcelona Hearts game at Murrayfield on 28 July - looking forward to that - I am on Scottish Rugby Union mailing list and bought the tickets the day they became available £20 concession ticket - Barcelona are one of my favourite teams - Henry as well now - should be interesting. Not long thereafter - a knock on the door - DHL - saw the van as I walked to front door - I asked him if it was the new Harry Potter book (before I saw the envelope) - he said No - and I couldn't work out what it was ??? Opened up the envelope - my Scotland New Zealand - World Cup rugby tickets - so that is 23 September - so lots to look forward to . . . .

Speaking of rugby - South Africa played Australia over the weekend - Hmmm! they led 17 - 10 at half time SA could not add to their score in second half - Australia did though - they won 24 - 17 - a game of two halves guys.

Judi was over for the weekend (hanging out washing . . .) - me I made a curry Sat night we didn't really get up to much just relaxed and chatted and chilled . . .
