George Makes His TV Debut

Posted on June 24, 2009

George made his TV debut yesterday during the Hampshire 20/20 game at the Rose Bowl. The remarkable thing about technology is I took this picture from the TV on my phone then MMS texted it to him and within a minute I had a text back simply saying "Tasty"called me Mr Saddo, but I find that quite incredible how George can see a picture of himself on the TV a minute after I have taken it.

George retired at 32 not out in a win against Yateley on Monday, his second retirement in a week, he also took two wickets and two catches in a individual great performance.

What Are We Going To Do Without The Apprentice???

Posted on June 8, 2009

Along with Diane, and George and Harry when they have been with me, I have been glued to The Apprentice.In a world of shit TV this programme has been television at it's best. The regal manner of Margaret (left) and the facial contortions of Nick (right) were perfect back up for the self confessed bugle player from the Stanford Jewish Boys Brigade.When it all finished with the Reading girl Jazmina a worthy winner, it all of a sudden dawned on me ...
