Saints go five points clear - Adkins smiles
Up at 4.00 a.m. this morning to take Adam to Andover to catch the first train to London. We arrived at Andover at 5.00 a.m. to find that Adam had given me the times of trains from Grateley rather than Andover so we had about half an hour to wait for the train to arrive. It is getting quite chilly now with the damp atmosphere and I was glad when the train eventually came and Adam was safely on his way back to London. On my return home I had a mug of coffee and then snoozed for a couple of hours before spending the morning working. This afternoon I drove into Salisbury and banked another £500 of Calendar money - mostly from shop sales and sales from one of the girls, Lisa. A wonderful evening tonight - Mary spent the night at Sophie's following her flute lesson and Tom and I went to Southampton to watch the Saints play West Ham in a record-breaking attendance of 32,150 at St. Mary's Stadium. A win by West Ham tonight would have put them on top but a win by Saints could mean a five point lead at the top if the other results went our way. They did! A fantastic atmosphere tonight - every seat filled and a long queue for our chippie! Like the good old days when we were in the Premiership. With a win against West Ham, Saints have proved that they are capable of beating any team in this League. The future is bright - the future is red and white stripes!
