Survival Sunday May 23rd 2011

Sunday 22nd May 2011 commenced in sunshine but then clouded with a light rain while at 14.00 there was a clear blue sky which lasted all of a couple second before the wind blue clouds from west to east. Gale force winds were warned for later.

I enjoyed half a prepared chicken breast with mini sausages and stuffing balls, with roast potatoes for lunch followed by a chocolate mint whip, after a light breakfast of cereal. I have completed 135 sets in the artwork project so far this month with the intention to increase to 200 a month over the rest of the year. I will commence to convert press cutting relating to child care matters, local and national, later today having earlier completed a writing and published on Google but ran into problems on MySpace.

For the rest of the day there was sport with the Spanish Formula I with Vettel set fair for yes another victory over Hamilton and Button unless something goes wrong with tyre selection, pit stops or use of the extras which have been developed to make racing more competitive and not just resting on who can engineer the quickest car through sheer speed. It did not and that is how the race finished although much closer than everyone anticipated.

Durham played in a one day game against Warwickshire at Edgbaston which I have only visited once for one day of a Test Match en route home from a stay in Wiltshire. They did not started well losing two early wickets. Then Stokes settle in scoring some giant sixes and wondrous four reaching over 150 runs before the end of the innings with Durham on a massive 180 plus runs. However Warwickshire set off at a fantastic rate of ten runs an over which the weakened Durham bowling side was unable to control and they achieve the required runs with overs and wickets to spare. This effectively ends the chance of the 40 40 final unless they can beat Surrey twice and Northants once with Surrey also beating Northants or someone else is able to stop the two runaways in their tracks. Warwickshire has not joined Durham so the league is divided between the strong and the weak.

The most interesting events is the last day of the Premiership football with five clubs trying to avoid relegation and separated by only one point, I wanted Blackpool to survive and for a time it looked as if they would after equalizing a Man U goal and then taking the lead, but they lack the defensive strength and staying power. I failed to pick up the Blackpool taunting of Ryan Giggs. On Monday it emerged that Ryan is the football named in the High Court super confidentiality order. His photo and name were revealed in a Scottish newspaper and then revealed through a question in the House of Commons. It this shows that if the people with some Parliamentary support witch they will thwart the rule of Law which suggest the rule of Law needs to keep closer in touch with the will of Parliament and the people although this could do also prove a very slippery slope down to mob rule.

By 6pm Blackpool was doomed but the surprising club to go down with them was Birmingham but to the delight of Aston Villa and other Midland Clubs. The surprising survivors were Wigan who had been at the bottom for most of the season. They cam back to win at West Ham who have become woeful and this was underlined as Sunderland had a great win there to move into the top after of the Premier table at 10th. Newcastle who were above them and took a 3.0 lead at home, conceded 3 goal to finish with a draw and therefore below the Mackems. Both clubs having poor seasons overall although Newcastle could be said to have done better having re-established themselves in the top flight league of all top flights in Europe.
