I'm not sure really, they've turned it into a bit of a poison chalice
I personally would have given Kenny more time, at least over the summer to have a see what the transfer window brings. However, can't always get what you want, so I just have to hope it'll be resolved sooner rather than later. Also, not Capello, I think he's a tosser.
My main hope is that Downing has a great time at the Euros, then we can maybe ship him out.

Outdoor drinking
fewer clothes, barbeques, ice cream, picnics, holidays, heat.. you can do stuff in the summer and it's warm. The only thing you can do in winter is sit inside and watch it get dark at 4pm whilst pissing it down. Apart from the possibility of snow, those amazingly clear and frosty mornings, and Christmas, winter's shit.

I like it when really hot women think to themselves...
"Throughout history, mankind has warn clothes to protect themselves from the elements. We have shoes because the floor is unevening and our feet are soft. We have trousers and shirts to cover our body so when the wind and rains come, we are sheltered and feel no cold. But the weather today is optimum, the weather is pretty much on par with body temprature. The floor is still unevening, so I shall still wear shoes. And I wish to look that I'm prime for mating so I'll wear high heals in order to tense our calf mussels while causing our breasts to expand outwards - thus making me feel 'sexy' and ready to look like I'm willing to bare child even though I wish to abort the process within moments of the inseration of ejaculate. However, as the weather is very 'nice', and I need no shelter from it, I shall wear the bare minimum in order to remain hygeenic as well as to create an air of mistery about my more personal body parts".

Oh man, they sent around an office email today introducing me and they called me a "front end developer", which has made me worried a bit...
... because I don't want a job being a front end developer, I do sooo much more than that, that would only be using about 1/3 half of my skills. Maybe even less. All I've been doing this week is front-end, but thats only natrual because it comes first and I've only been there a couple of days and they said on friday I'm gonna be given my first [back end] work.
