steaming

Steaming hot in Tel Aviv at the moment. Event Mrs. LBLS switched on the air-conditioner last night, that has to be a first...

Over in steaming hot Blighty, Arsenal are building up to their semi-final on Saturday, which will be live on TV over here. Should be an interesting game, but Arsenal really should win. This is their 7th semi-final in 8 years, not too shabby, eh? It does look like an Arsenal v Manure final, and let's face it, this is the neutral's preferred match-up. Who'd really pay to see a Blackburn v Newcastle final, except for the hard-core? And G, mark your calendar, Saturday 21 May will be a day to stock up on some tissues (to mop up those tears, if you still support Manure then...).

Tonight off to see some friends with their cold, wet Tuborgs, to see Liverpool put to the sword...though you have to feel sympathy for the scousers having to face some of those Italian fans and their fancy fireworks. A ban for last night's Italian Guy Fawkes impersonators? Yeh right.
