To Dream The Once Impossible Dream!

Tottenham Hotspur in europe next season? It is something i thought would not be possible at Christmas!

However the fighters of White Hart Lane have turned a relegation scrap in to a fight for a place in the Europa League (Uefa Cup), And although i am taking nothing for granted, i am very confident that we can finnish in the 7th place.

Basicaly, Manchester United (grr), Chelsea, Aresnal and Everton are in the Semi-Finals of the F.A Cup, and because they are all in European qualification places a extra spot is up for grabs on the grounds that however gets to the F.A Cup final is given a place in europe.

This is the table around 7th at the moment.

5. Aston Villa - 53

6. Everton - 52

7. West Ham - 44

8. Fulham - 43

9. Tottenham Hotspur - 41

10.Wigan - 41

11.Manchester City - 38

We are three points behind that crucial 7th place, and who would have thought that after suffering our worst start to a season since the Titanic sunk!

17 Again

Today is an important day in blog land...my first film review!

(insert cheering, clapping, all round happiness here)

This afternoon along with leaders and members of the youth group from my church we all went for an outing to Luton to go for a cinema trip.

Because of the age of the group, the film had to be age appropriate. I had horrible visions of sitting through the Hanna Montana Movie (She has the best of both worlds...but now she has to chose one...what will she do???) or Marley and Me, which as far as i can see is about a Dog that both Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston both love...great story!

However after much thought (there really was not much on) we decided to go and watch Zac Efron's new film 17 Again (this is not strictly true, two guys went to see Alien & Monsters 3D).

The film on first thoughts, was pretty boring, but if you look deeper there are some very good performances in it...for example Zac Efron.

It hurts me to say this, but he was brilliant in it as was his flat mate and 'dad' Thomas Lennon.

The film basicaly is about a guy called Mike who wishes his life was better and that he could go through his youth again, somehow, and im not sure how, because he falls in to a river he becomes 17 again (hence the film name!), and trys to make up for mistakes he made. He does and he is 17 again.

Its not going to win any awards, and its not in my list of favourite films ever, but looking back on it...its a good family film and a good way to spend a horribly wet and damp day in luton.

And by the way...Zac Efron...SO good at basketball!
