England vs Germany / Random Update
England kick off their last 16 match against Germany in just under 8 hours and I can’t wait to see how it pans out. I feel that England may have been partially discounted or at least haven’t had the chance to flourish against the lesser teams.
Coral are offerring evens on the Germans winning if it goes to penalities. Regardless of how much England have ‘trained’ for penalties I can;t see them winning a shootout that often. Its not like Lampard doesn’t practice at Chelsea so I’m not sure how much of a difference this extra world cup penalty training has made. Anyway that’s the one place where I’m quite sure of value.
Looking back on the last year I’m chuffed I’ve managed to save a bit, got a nice car and in general a business with some value. Hopefully things can diversify and become more robust over the next 12 months. Although I’m doing well financially I’ve let myself down in almost every other area or at least not achieved certain things I would have liked to. My body clock is shit and I need to play a sport or work out more. Especially if I begin to do this full time, I need to begin to take it more seriously, work proper hours and a sport would really help me keep it broken up.
Anyway I hope by the next time I post here to update I’ve gotten myself back into Squash or something. Its a shame and I feel like I owe it to myself. From the ages of 11 – 17 I played / trained at least 5 times a week and went to tournements all over the country. I was good and ranked within the top 5 for my age group in Scotland however, it sort of got packed in for a number of reasons. I guess socialising took a front seat, exams at school, parents wanting a life of their own at the weekend instead of driving me to tournements and the fact I most probably wasn;t going to become a pro.
So now I’m 20 and have the freedom to train as much as I like, with the need to get fit. Hopefully, I actually do this.
Peace
