I had a phone call this morning from BBC Radio 5Live asking if I was interested in contributing to a discussion on the transfers that went through yesterday – particularly Torres to Chelsea and Carroll to Liverpool. Here’s a link to the discussion chaired by Victoria Derbyshire (you’ll need to jump to 1:36:46 in the …

That’s Flat White incidentally. Life’s too short for bad coffee (beer, wine, conversation, etc, etc… ). I’ve been working for some time on learning to produce the perfect flat white coffee. The staff at my local Starbucks have been giving me a degree of training in how to apply the steamed-stretched milk to the espresso …

And so, as we hurtle into “The Year of Our Lord Two Thousand and Eleven” (2011), it’s about time I set myself up to fail by having a list of those pesky resolutions for me to beat myself up for not achieving. So, here goes: First and obviously given I’m half-way through the final year …
