Kick off
Originally uploaded by adam.mim.

Yesterday Adam, Ben and I headed up to Liverpool to watch Liverpool v. Charlton. We left Abingdon at about 11.30am, and apart from a bit of traffic on the A34, the journey up was really good. We parked the car, had a bite to eat, put on about five layers each, and then headed off to the ground. We pooped into the club shop and had a little look around, but as no-one really wanted to buy much, and the queue for the shop was pretty small, it didn't take as long as planned, so we got to our seats about an hour before kick off. No one really minded though because it gave us a chance to have a drink, and snack, and watch the warm up, and just generally soak up the atmosphere! I'm not going to give you a big match analysis here, lets just say it ended 0-0, at least Liverpool didn't lose! We stopped off on the way home for a burger king at some services, and made it back to Oxford at about 11.30pm. All in all I think everyone enjoyed themselves, was just a shame Dad was travelling to Vancouver and couldn't join us really.

Today Adam and I have taught the kittens how to use the cat flap, they were a little bit nervous at first but seem to be enjoying going outside now, and been to order our new carpet. It is being fitted a week on Wednesday, so we will have a couple of days of lugging furniture down the stairs and back up again, but I'm sure it will be worth it in the end!
