Off On One Again

A blog of no interest to anyone apart from me. Highly egotistical. Somewhat ironic that once upon a time people kept diaries secret. Now we publish to the world, even if no-one is listening (or reading). This may include stuff on Greece, history, rugby, cricket, Health and Safety, Wales, genealogy and West Hendred. It will almost certainly include complete rants about things I find amusing, interesting or annoying. There is no guarantee that anyone will share my views!

37, forgetful, cynical, sarcastic, would like to have been a struggling artist but ended up with a PhD in chemistry. Got bored with being in the lab, fell into Health and Safety and now can't get out of science without taking a pay cut. Rather enjoying the diversion into Environmental compliance. Unfit and terminally depressed. Lovely wife Sam - just about all that keeps me together. Son Rafferty GFX Hall born 24 Oct 2005 is growing up quickly. Greyhound (Buddy), cats (PJ and Boots), tortoises (Tinkerbell and Compost). Learning Greek at Evening Classes. Play Cricket badly for Didcot CC, haven't played rugby for years and am a little annoyed about that. According to my medical, am clincially obese. Earn far too little. Completed H&S and Environmental Diplomas

The Zurich Premiership must surely be coming to the most exciting climax in history. In a 12 team league, with one relegation spot, the final games of the season are today. Any one of 5 teams can be relegated, from London Irish, Northampton, Worcester, Leeds or Harlequins. Great sport does make great drama.

Grove were in a similar state coming to the end of their season. They play in a 12 team league, with one team promoted directly, and the second place team into the play offs for a second promotion spot. In their last game, they played Henley Wanderers, essentially with the winner going into the second spot and therefore the play off. They lost, and finished 6th overall - another example of a very tight league:
