Agony & Ecstasy (part 1)


What a shame. Double shame: today I watched my 3 sons play for The Beacon Church football team and go out in the quarter finals of a Camberley football tournament. They lost on penalties. Penalties! How often have we seen the destiny of a football team, or nation, shaped by one skied penalty? The team played well and acquitted themselves extremely well as gentlemen. Adam LS also helped to organise the event.
Then to come home and hear that Reading had lost in the Championship play-off Final to Swansea - double blow. The day started so brightly with such promise. Triple blow if you include Man Utd being so humbled by Barcelona on Saturday.
Will I recover? I think I will. It all comes down to perspective...
