There's only one thing sure about a day in my life, as in anyone's life; the sun rises, the sun sets, and somewhere in the world it looks pretty great either way.

Luckily here in Lancaster the sun sets beautifully quite frequently and it's often a useful fall-back for when nothing else was worth taking a picture of.

Tomorrow is the first Wednesday of the new term and I'm already starting to look forward to it. We had a sunny, breezy day today and if tomorrow's the same it'll be just brilliant; why I might even do a little jig - to myself of course.

As nothing much was going on we thought we'd go and watch Liverpool-Arsenal in the Champions League semi-final after the absolute belter of a quarter final round. Sadly, the game was quite dull; Liverpool were ahead 1-0 for nearly all the game, until Riise scored a 'blunder-goal' in the back of his own net; we almost all felt his pain - even the Chelsea fans among us. Manchester play Barcelona tomorrow - once again three out of four of the sides in the semis are English; who knows, maybe this time we can have some success...
