Easter Saturday - A Quiet Day

Quite a lazy day today.  Southampton were playing Aston Villa away - it was not possible to get tickets this year because it was necessary to have attended six away matches already to qualify (we have attended none this year) and by all accounts it wasn't the most exciting match of the season - a 0-0 draw.  With Newcastle losing at home to Swansea, Saints remain 3 points above the Toons in 8th position which looks to be where they will end the season. Grimsby managed a draw yesterday away to Alfreton and their position in the play-offs remains uncertain. The weather has remained bright today but we all seem to be suffering from coughs and colds and Sara is feeling quite down at the moment.  Tomorrow sees the end of my placement at St. Francis's and this will be a very sad moment.  I have made some good friends and contacts and really enjoyed my time there.  I went into Salisbury this morning and bought a couple of light-hearted humorous books to give to Paul and Tom - one entitled Rules for Reverends (What theological college didn't teach you!) and the other a book of cartoons by Dave Walker who publishes cartoons in the Church Times.  An example is at the head of this entry.
