A giggle for a dreary Sunday

The football team won overnight so that made up for the Blues effort. 3 pts behind the mancs and they have a game in hand, so not ideally placed..

Anyhows, this on Stuff made me laugh so I thought I'd share..
Tough times spell end to baby boom
... 'Professor Tim Hazeldine, the head of economics at Auckland University's School of Business, said that if the country's birth rate did drop, any impact on the economy would not be felt for many years. He said he would be surprised if the birth rate did fall, as experience showed that when times were tough, people opted for low-cost entertainment, and having sex was "fun and cheap"'.
Just goes to show that even economists can be funny!

Close, but not enough

Football can be a funny game at times.. Normally 4 away goals in Europe sees you through, but as we lost 3-1 to the Chav's at home last week alas Liverpool are out of the Champions League beaten 7-5 on aggregate. Bit of shame as there was no reason why we couldn't will the CL, don't think the Chav's will and with us out the Manc's are looking good to retain that one..

That just leaves the Premier League for this season and though Europe is always good to win, I'd rather they won the league any day. Fingers crossed that a couple of results go our way and come May 24 so has championship #19.
