Exhausting day today driving mother home, doing her shopping etc and then driving home myself. So a tad tired and no long post tonight. Also exhausting day rounded off by the fact that I have just watched Chelsea v Liverpool in the European Cup second leg meeting with Chelsea leading 4-2 on aggregate at the start of the match. Within half an hour that advantage had been wiped out by Liverpool and then in the second half it was raining goals with the match ending in a 4-4 draw and Chelsea going through. Talk about nail biting. One of the best matches I have seen for a long time. When you watch a match like this you realise why football is called The Beautiful Game.
These two teams seem to bring the best out in each other and I remember an occasion years ago when Chelsea beat Liverpool in a match 3-2 when they had been trailing and I leapt into the air with a yell when the final goal went in, came down on a plate I had forgotten was on the floor, having contained my supper, smashed it in two, slashed my foot and ended up in Casualty having my foot stitched up.
Sometimes supporting a football team can be very painful...
