Today saw the first full Saturday of League Football as the 2011-2012 Season begins. I spent the morning doing some tidying up before the builders arrived to put in the new french window in Sara's study. they also removed the scaffolding from the extended chimney and the plasterboard between the garage and Sara's study. They will be returning tomorrow to undertake some more work but this afternoon were going to spend the rest of the day looking around Salisbury Cathedral. This afternoon Tom and I went into Southampton for the Championship match against Leeds United. We arrived early, parked in our free space off The Avenue and then walked into the city centre for a KFC lunch before going to St. Mary's. We were in for an absolute treat with a wonderful 3-1 win for the Saints - the first win on the first day of a season since 1999 and the first win at home of the first day since 1988! Southampton played good exciting football throughout at it was only a disputed penalty in the dying seconds of injury time at the end of the match that prevented them from keeping a clean sheet and sharing the top position with Ipswich Town. As it is, tonight, they lie second place In the championship. Hopefully a good omen for a fantastic season.
