One Minute Portrait #7

In Art for art's sake on February 26, 2010 at 5:40 pm

Been away from blogging for a while, not really sure why just been busy since the back-end of last year.

Just to catch up, Isabel, my daughter (in the portrait) will be 1 year old soon. I’m still playing football for both Boca Seniors in Henley and less frequently Torpedo TF in London. I’m due to play for TF next week in their last game of the current season and another relegation nail biter.

Promise I’ll try and be more regular with the postings from now on…

Henley Sixes

In The beautiful game on August 26, 2009 at 8:22 am

No I’ve not taken up rowing, I’m far too unfit for that… but I have been stepping up my wii fit workouts and trying to do at least 30 minutes a day – the hardest part having to get up early so my wife can jump on after me in between looking after the baby in the morning. My wii fit age is coming down along with a bit of weight, so all good.

Last week my newish football team ‘Boca Seniors’ have started playing 6-a-side in Henley – a six a side tag now as well? – The facilities are really good on a large astroturf pitch next to the rugby club. We all agreed it was much more like real football than the pinball of Prospect Park. Maybe it’s because we weren’t doing so well there in terms of results? Even though we had a baptism of fire in our first game against the league leaders and we got beat *!@& – 0, it was a good game and I got to do some kicking and am generally more involved in the game, so much so I picked up a black eye from somewhere!

More updates on league positions etc. to come…
