So what is timesnewroman? It's not the font, rather my take on the age we live in. The USA is the new Rome and the times we live in are timesnewroman.

Just another Saturday
This was an abomination of a game. The ref was, as we have come to expect a total fucking numpty. However that was no excuse for an extremely poor performance especially in the first half, from Killie. We were second to every ball and the distribution was poor, possibly because the midfield was posted missing. Caley were up for a game and had 3 players on our man with the ball at every opportunity. They took the lead and never looked like giving the ball away in the first half. The second goal shortly before the end of the half was a joke that left egg on the face of Killie keeper Combe who was "tactically" substituted at the start of the second half.

Half time was incredible, if it wasn't for this I would have gone home. We were treated to local lad Sean somebody, who is due to appear on UK Idol soon, "performing" Paolo Nuttini's "New Shoes." Poor lad couldn't sing for toffee, couldn't keep up with the karaoke backing track. Tears streaming down your face as you realise it just can't get any worse can it? Well, missing the equaliser penalty in the dying minutes of the game, could I guess be termed worse. Oh well, I'm sure a pre-dinner aperitif whilst preparing Osso Buco, listening to my favourite Saturday evening "Radio" show will turn the night around.

Free again
Mumsy is finally home. Back installed in her fiefdom and loving it. She had a bit of an appetite problem before going into hospital, but yesterday, she could have eaten for Scotland. Superb result.
