Decisions

This is a difficult one and not related to cleaning it's just a piece of trivia. Having finished off the day by checking various e mails I had to decide what to do this evening! Do I eat at home and then go out to watch the football or do I really spoil myself and go out to eat whilst watching the football? These are the great decisions that the captain's of industry are confronted with! In the end I decided to eat at the pub prior to watching the football then if that turns out to be disappointing I can always leave early! Hopefully though it will be a more entertaining game than the one between Chelsea and Barcelona was last evening. I was looking forward to Chelsea winning so that in the next round they could be knocked out by Liverpool or Arsenal. However that was not to be as Chelsea disappointed. I look forward with no great conviction it has to be said to both Arsenal and Liverpool winning this evening. If they both go the way of Chelsea then interest in the Champions League will obviously wane on my part and reasons for a pub meal will go into free fall. Still we have the Commonwealth Games coming along next week which might necessitate take aways? In case you get the impression that I am simply an armchair viewer of sports I did use to participate actively until; my body stopped recovering between football games; I could no longer see the cricket ball with any degree of fine focus; I failed to be able to speak coherently after a game of squash; and anything that involved running meant the following day not being able to utilise and co-ordinate my muscles without acute pain; actually anything involving movement being quite difficult for several days! Nowadays my exercise consists of walking the dog and of course work! Cleaning is quite a physical process; Oh yes, I still have to get involved with that sometimes.
