Hi all, Christmas is over for another year, just New Year to get out of the way and thats it! I know that sounds very miserable but I have to work more during the holidays and its very tiring (boo hoo!)
I did get some nice pressies though, My hubby built me a new PC (whats he after?!) and I got some very silly Tigger slippers. Ive got lots of smelly things, a book and some more Tiggers. ( i like tiggers)
Next week readers I'll have some proper rugby news, as my dear lads play those heathen devils from across the city, Hull KR, in a friendly. Thats if I remember to post it. :)
Adieu dear readers and a Happy new year to you all!

Hello again, sorry about the delay in posting (as if anyone is reading this lol) But as I mentioned in my last post I've had a busy few weeks. My eldest daughter Shell did indeed move back home, with her cat Chibi (I call him Mr Chibs, chibi is too girly for a boy cat!) Anyway, all is settling down now, but I have competition for the PC now! (boo)
Today is my hubbys birthday, tomorrow it is my birthday, were both hitting 47, but of course he is older than I am, even if it is a day lol. Were off out for dinner tonight, at this little Malaysian place we go to, yummy yum yum !
One thing about my birthday, its a sort of marker in another way, exactly 2 weeks to Christmas Day, which usually means one thing.......PANIC! But this year i'm being quite organised about things, strange but true. One thing I do hate is shopping, everywhere is completely packed and its a nightmare. So that is why the very wonderful internet comes in. I dont know what I'd do with out it to be honest!

Now on to rugby news, it is still the close season so not a lot of news to report. Our yearly friendly match (!?) against deadly rivals Hull KR has been called off as they wanted more money from the gate reciepts. I'm quite sad about this as although we usually tan their hides nowadays, there is always a good fight (on the pitch ofcourse) I know, at my age i should say such things, but its all in good fun and they shake hands afterwards!
Our new shirts have been released. Now I quite like them both. For the un-HullFC-ified, the stripey one is the home shirt the other is worn at away games. I'm quite pleased with them both. Our home shirt has gone back to our traditional black and white hoops, where the away strip looks unusual. You cant usually see what theyre like till you see them on the pitch though. As you can see 2 of our most handsome players were picked to model the new kit. but we love them all the same lol.
Fare thee well and adieu for now,
