Time to Blog again

It's about time I blogged again. So here goes. Since I last wrote in June '10 what have I been up to. After my year break from Uni I returned in October '10 to finish off my degree, and after much effort managed to get a 2.1 in History with a dissertation on the 'blitz trekkers' of Plymouth in Spring 1941. Taken a long time but I got there in the end and I must say I was pretty chuffed at my success. Also during the year I have exhibited my narrow guage exhibition model railway three times and have recently been learning how to woodturn.

As for Plymouth Argyle what a shambles but at last things seem to be improving at Home Park. Too many grand ideas by men who didn't really have the financial clout, just big egoes. Mind you I also feel too many fans expect too much of the directors and unwittingly feed the inflated egoes!!
