It's Monday again
Another very enjoyable weekend.
Stayed in on Friday and watched some TV and chilled out, Saturday morning played golf with H which was really good, hitting the ball generally long and straight off the tee, and despite starting a little slowly managed a respectable 14 over, so technically 4 under my Worldham Handicap.
Just the one birdie this time, but I did lip a put on the long par 5 Tenth leaving me a tap in for par. Mind you that tenth was down wind so my drive went over 300 yards, and my lay up second with my 6 iron was only 40 yards short.
Out and about Saturday evening, tried the White Horse but there wasn't anywhere to sit so we headed off to Reeds, bumped into a R and a different mate called H, chatted for a bit before proceeding to a table with L for lots of chat and even more drinkies. Really good night which ended with a lot of laughter.
Sunday was a chilled day from the off, headed slowly to Sainsbury's having abandoned our trolley in Tescos the previous afternoon as they just didn't seem to have the things we needed or wanted.
L had a kip while I watched Reading beat Spurs and then the main event (well the main event other than my usual Sunday roast, which although I cooked it and am therefore biased, was fantastic) Arsenal v Liverpool.
Having been damn unlucky at the very least to lose to West Ham the week before, Arsenal could have done with an easier game to get their title aspirations back on track, but thankfully this Liverpool side have yet to find their feet away from home, having only scored once on their travels so far this season.
Arsenal started the game brightly and settled into their pass and move style quickly. A few nerves were settled when Flamini stole in ahead of the defender to turn in Fabregas' cut back on 40 minutes, the young frenchman rightly picking up a booking for his celebration, having hurdled the barrier before rushing over to a section of adoring gooners.
1-0 at half time became 2-0 just 10 minutes into the second half, as Kolo Toure intercepted a ball played from the Liverpool defence, knocking the ball square to Fabregas the Ivory Coas defender carried on his run, and after Van Persie missed his flick, he retained possession and slid an inch perfect pass through to the marauding Toure who calmy slotted between Reina's legs and into the net.
Arsenal continued to have the better of the game and made it 3-0 with twenty minutes to go as an unmarked William Galls drifted into the six yeard box to head home Van Persie's corner.
Adebayor missed a great opportunity to make it 4 as he raced away from Carragher late on , but Reina blocked well with his legs.
A great result and even good enough to see MrWenger speak to the media this week.
Role on Hamburg on the 21st Nov which I have ticket to go and see.
