H! Good news!

I didn't realise the Bobster has a column in the Independent (I'm sure most people didn't realise that, on account of the fact that no-one reads the Independent full stop...)

Any road, I read it today (all of the other newspapers in Expresso were being read, with only the pood Independent lying unread in the rack), and Green describes how prior to international matches he gets special instructions not to misbehave BECAUSE HE IS SINGLE.

Is it worth a call?

I realise the day before you go on maternity leave is not the best time to make this suggestion.

Natural Blonde said...

IS HE NOW?

Well.

Do you think he likes ladies who closely resemble a weeble?

Patrick said...

Green? Defo.

He's JUST the kind of bloke who fancies a girl who wobbles but won't fall down.

Natural Blonde said...

What ARE the ladies of London thinking? All that hot 'keeper and nobody interested?

Maybe they don't like the Gummidge look down there.

Well, more fool them I say.

whats happened to his model girlfriend then?

Natural Blonde said...

BTW Patrick I don't know what your plans are for the Boxing day game (chanting and arranging your chakras aside) but we will be in the usual pub at the usual time if you feel the need for a system-cushioning pint.

Patrick said...

Don't forget he lives in the East End. He may be eligible and single and all that, but most women down that way already have seven children by the time they are fourteen, and are often grannies by the age of twenty two.*

Patrick said...

Cool! See you then!

Natural Blonde said...

Its superbly prejudiced in a wide range of ways Patrick, my compliments.

Be good to see you on Boxing day - our tickets are in the Upper Barclay, but may be doing a swap.

hiyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Patrick said...

Ithengu.

I also have a number of witty and acerbic remarks concerning women who live in remote farming communities in the valleys of Wales, but I am keeping my powder dry on those

Patrick said...

Wumus! Yaaaaayyyyy!

wms said...

i'm baaaaaaaack!

Natural Blonde said...

Hello my dear!

Thats MY goalkeeper you know....

Natural Blonde said...

Did you hear that when Cookie dropped a catch today, he got the cold shoulder from the rest of the team. My mum says on TMS they said he was clearly looking around for a hug, but they all ignored him. Poor the Cookie!

Made up for it later with a run out though.

wms said...

they were all getting a bit narky today weren't they?! poor cookie. i'd've hugged him!

Natural Blonde said...

I was thinking that it would make a good career for you - England team hugger. When the dash on the the drinks/gloves/magic spray you dash on too and see to the needs of any players who need a quick squeeze.

Natural Blonde said...

AND WE"LL HAVE NO SMUTTY REMARKS ABOUT THAT LAST POST BLOGGERS!

wms said...

seriously, that would be my ideal job. i would be superb at it!

Patrick said...

Fancy being annoyed with a fellow cricketer just because he can't catch things.

Some people just have unrealistic expectations.

Natural Blonde said...

We didn't have good day today for sure. Match looks like a draw, they may already be thinking about coming home..

wms said...

they really needed to win this game, we're about to plummet down the world rankings!

Natural Blonde said...

I can't see how though Zo - they are going to get at least 400, then we need to get 600 (from where?) and bowl them out quick in the last innings. And rain is on th cards...

Boo!

Anonymous said...

I'm good thanks, feeling a bit bloated but then i've just eaten a fruit salad!

You ready for Xmas?

Melly - You're right, work does suck!

Melly said...

It really does Northy lad.

:(

I need a holiday....

Anonymous said...

Me too.
Not going away till May though :(

Natural Blonde said...

Is this a good time to mention that in about 10 minutes I am going to leave work an I'm not coming back for 8 months? (or for up to a year if I like?)

No?

Anonymous said...

Grrr!

Melly said...

No Mrs B, shhh quiet time now.

However, 8 months off with crying, poop and baby spew is not an ideal 8 month break :)

I only have one holiday planned next year :( need more.

Just looking for snowboarding holidays in march sometime

coyote said...

work sux but i'm now 2nd in command and have 2 minions, mwahahahahaaaaa! plus i've got 3 days off next month while some friends are visiting, 2.5 weeks off in feb to go to india, and will take some time off in october to go to yankland (i.e. america, nothing to do with smutty solo nighttime activities...)

Natural Blonde said...

Ah but Melly the poo/wee/vomit won't be arriving until February. Until then, I'm a lady of leisure on full pay ;-)

Mwahahahahaaaaaa

See ya bloggers

Anonymous said...

Nice. You'll get cheaper deals spring riding.

Planning some travel at the end of next year, either Japan or Brazil I think.

Melly said...

A lady of leisure with fat ankles :-D

MAMBO! Way too much info on the night time activities

Melly said...

oh japan sounds good! never been too sure about brazil.....the nuts are nice though :)

Well hoping to get a cheap deal for march, we got a cheap one last year only a few hundred quid in Austria, was meant to be the last week of the season but in fact they had the most snow they had had all season!

Anonymous said...

Yeah, it does work like that sometimes!
Yeah, never fancied South America until my mate went and has told me it's amazing.
Japan is somewhere i've always wanted to go.

I read the Independant, which SURELY tells you all you need to know about the quality of said publication.
