Night Out to celebrate New Year and my final updates of 2004 to Scouting2007 and Eurojam website!

Tonight I went out to celebrate the dawn of a New Year, and I also completed my part of the update on the Eurojam and Scouting 2007 sites which was good!

I hope there will be quite a few people out tonight as it will be good to celebrate the New Year with people I know!

Happy New Year Everyone!

Today, I made my way to the gym I have joined at Hornsea Leisure Centre in order to increase my fitness!

Now I am feeling tired so I shall say goodnight and a happy new year to one and all, sorry for such a short update this evening!

Scouting 2007 Conference Call!

Today, I spent the evening reading through and making modifications to the various websites associated with Scouting 2007 and Eurojam! And then had a Scout Association conference call meeting, where we discussed all the things that need to be carried out when developing the three sites, Scouting 2007, Eurojam and the Eurojamlive site in the coming year! Hope everyone I know had a merry christmas and I hope the frivolity will continue into the New Year!

P.S. I am pleased all my SAGGA friends are back Blogging now, as my kinja digest now is looking a little more full!
P.P.S. I am also pleased to report that after listening to Hull City playing Doncaster Rovers this evening, City moved within two points of League One leaders Luton with a last-gasp victory over Doncaster.

Quake prompts massive aid effort

One of the world's largest relief efforts is under way to help the millions of victims of the Asia quake, as the death toll continues to mount. And also how come over Christmas you seem to loose track of the days, I'm sorry I did not keep my blog up to date, but I have been very busy with the joys of the Christmas period!

Two Christmas crackers from Northern Ireland star Stuart Elliott lifted a gloomy Boxing Day match!

Stuart Elliott, League One's leading scorer, recorded his 18th and 19th goals of the season as Hull claimed a comfortable win at Blackpool.

In todays match both sides struggled to get to grips with a bumpy Bloomfield Road playing surface in a dull first half in which chances were few and far between. The closest either side came was when former England ace and now Hull player Nick Barmby fired in a shot from the edge of the six yard box which had to be tipped over the bar by stand-in Blackpool keeper Lee Jones. At the other end, Boaz Myhill was a virtual spectator for most of the first period as Blackpool strikers Simon Lynch and Scott Taylor struggled to get any change out of big central defenders Damien Delaney and Leon Cort.

The second half started in brighter fashion with Hull creating chances through Delroy Facey and the influential Stuart Green while at the other end a driven shot from Rick Wellens forced Myhill into his first real save. Fifteen minutes into the half Hull finally found a breakthrough when substitute Danny Allsopp flicked on for the previously anonymous Elliott who scored his first with a powerfully hit drive through a narrow angle. Stuart Elliot is now the leading scorer in League 1!

Blackpool rarely threatened but had a good penalty shout turned down when Lynch hit the ground after a heavy challenge from Delaney but after the state furious protests from Hull players and fans, referee Stuart Mathieson saw nothing wrong and allowed play to go on. Elliott made the points secure on 84 minutes when another quick break forward gave him the chance to score goal number 21 for the season with another powerful left foot shot.

In the evening I went to the Floral Hall in Hornsea to see the last ever performance of a very good band known as the "Gutterband"!

50,000 dead - and toll still rising

Well it has been quite a strange and sad boxing day after the news of a epic tidal wave rocking 11 countries.

Medical supplies, food aid and water purification systems poured into the region, part of what the UN said would be the biggest relief effort the world has ever seen.

Rescuers struggled to reach remote locations where thousands more were likely killed by the deadliest tsunami in 120 years. Bodies, many of them children, filled beaches and choked hospital morgues, raising fears of disease across the region.

Anyway I have spent the day out with friends celebrating Christmas in Hornsea and I have seen some people I have not seen for a year or more, however the sad news of the natural disaster put a sad spin on the whole holiday period!

Christmas Day - Hope everyone has a merry Christmas!

Today, I opened my presents and cards, had a meal with my family and then went to the local public house to celebrate christmas with friends!

Christmas Celebration!

Went to the public house in Hornsea to celebrate christmas in style!

It's Christmas!

I ordered Microsoft Encarta 2005 Premium Suite and Encylopedia Britannica Deluxe 2005 today from Amazon at a special price that I received in a email that was less than half the regular price, and considering my last encyclopedia is now two years out of date, I thought it was a real bargin!

Tonight I went out in Hornsea and did my usual Friday, Thursday night thing, go to the pub with friends! I saw a lot of people I had not seen in a while which was good and I also think it is important to remember that it is Christmas after all!

Merry Christmas Everybody!

Hull City Keep Jason Price!

It looks like it will be a busy time of year for Hull City with an approach by Boston United for Tigers winger Jason Price been turned down.

Boston United who currently sitting just outside a play-off place in League Two made an attempt to sign the Welshman, but saw it rejected by City, which pleased me as Jason Price is a key backup player for the Tigers.

However, Boston United manager Steve Evans told their official site: "I spoke with Peter Taylor earlier today. I have built up a good relationship with my opposite number at Hull City, but Peter Taylor confirmed that the lad is still very much in his plans."

Meanwhile, fellow City winger Stuart Elliott is rumoured to be a target for Championship sides Sunderland and Leeds United, although neither the club nor the player seem interested in a transfer.

Last night I had my final visit of the year to the Gym and today I finished off wrapping my presents and writing cards, so that is it finished for another year, which is good! Let the christmas celebrations commence!

Gym!

Today, I made my way to the gym I have joined at Hornsea Leisure Centre in order to increase my fitness!
