Car damage

Sunday, March 18th, 2007

A couple weeks or so ago there was damage on my car. I went to Sainsburys straight after work and when I got back to the car with my shopping I saw the left rear light cover broken. At first I thought it was some kids of something – there is a small stone resting on the rear wiper which I thought was strange. I talked to the security guard asking about if they had CCTV (I know they do). He said that the camera dont point at where the car is though – which seems abit rubbish!! Anyway he noted down my registration plate etc.

As well as the broken light there was damage to the spoiler – there is a small chip off my rear roof spoiler!! Also scratched on the rear window – like stones have been scraped against it. Little dent near boot handle and scratches on rear bumper :(

Thinking about it more and looking at it more it could have been as a result of a pothole. I ran over a pothole on the way home. It was dark and rainy and kind off saw what looked like a pothole in the road but no time to avoid it. When I ran over it it was a fair bump. Thats why I think it could have caused the smash – also inside the light is brown dirt and like smashed up bits of stone/rock. However it does seem weird how running over pothole can result in a smashed rear light.

After seeing the car repair place he thinks it was something falling on it – or maybe someone throwing stones at car?? Unfortunately I will properly ever know what exactly happened. Anyway….

I got a new light from a company via Ebay. It was delivered really quick and was really easy to fit.

Birthday party

Sunday, March 11th, 2007

This weekend it was a friends birthday. Lots of people came – I had a great time. We all had a meal in Tai Wu first and then headed to Opus in the Printworks.

We stayed there till pretty much the end. The music overall was quite good. Dance, bit of Rnb, cheesy pop. However right at the end of the night there was some rubbish RnB you just couldnt dance to!!

Photos now online.

Thanks Henrik!

Thursday, March 8th, 2007

LarssonUnited are through to the quarter finals of the Champions League. We won 2-0 aggregate, 1-0 on the night. Once again the performance wasnt that good. Larsson scored for us after a great bit of skill from Ronaldo.

Larsson has scored 3 goals for us in each competition we are in. He is now going back to Sweden on the 12th March. The season there starts at the start of April and he has a contract with them. He has said he has enjoyed every moment with United. We could do with Henrik really since we not have a worrying injury problem. Silvestre dislocated his shoulder last night. Ole is out for a few weeks, Saha has injured hamstring so out for about 4 weeks. Also Fletcher and Evra are injured. We now only have Rooney fit – thankfully its the international break soon so that helps abit. Smith played last night for abit which was good. We may need to bring Rossi back and maybe even Dong.

Some excellent news for United fans is that Ronaldo has started contract talks. His current contract doesnt end till 2010 and he did say he wants to play in Spain one day.

“We have talked and I hope to reach agreement as soon as possible,” he told Portuguese radio station Antena 1. “Nothing has been decided yet and I would like to stay. I would like to play in Spain one day, but I am happy here at Manchester.” He added: “You can never be certain of anything in life but I am happy here and I want to stay here. In football there are no guarantees.”If I don’t leave now, if I leave in two, three, four, five years I would be happy, I am at a great club.”

Beckham out injured :(

Monday, March 5th, 2007

Beckham injured himself playing for Real Madrid at the weekend. Not seen it but he apparently ran into advertisement boards when crossing the ball. This is bad news. Its bad for England because there was a chance he could have got an England re-call and I think we need him. Also it means he wont play in the Manchester United v Europe XI special tribune match. Gutted!! I would have loved to have seen him play back at Old Trafford. Hopefully he will make an appearance so he can in some way say thanks to the United fans etc.

UPDATE: Becks will be at Old Trafford although of course not playing.
