United v Barcelona

I think we'll get beat. Am trying to work out formation/team and tactics.

Am going for

VDS
Evra
Ferdinand
Vidic
Fabio
Carrick
Park
A TOP PREMIERSHIP FOOTBALLER
Valencia
Rooney
Hernandez

I think we'll man mark busquets and have Rooney and Hernandez really pushing their centre backs. The back four will play really narrow and force the ball wide where barca don't like playing.

Whatever happens though I think we'll get beaten.....

Weather , Fuel Costs and Kitesurfing

I can't believe the weather at the moment. I heard today that it hasn't rained where I live in Norfolk for 6 weeks now. Not that i'm complaining it's been so nice. I have been driving to the beach alot to watch one of the guys from work who Kitesurfs. In the next few weeks I'm going to start taking lessons as it looks amazing.

Driving around a bit has really hit me how much fuel is at the moment. I have put £125 worth of Diesel in my car in th elast week. It's now £6.50 a gallon which is over $10. It's absolutely ridiculous. My standard of living would be so much higher if fuel prices were even where they were a year ago. £1.45 a litre is stupid, especially when you realise how much Duty/VAT the government take for that. How much was petrol when they fuel protests happened a few years ago? Nowhere near what they are now and yet people just seem to take it....
