An easy buck

Today, I have witnessed what I (and most people) have believed for a long time. I saw 2 policemen hiding behind a hedge on Beverley Road, jumping out the minute a car appeared which was driving in the bus lane, The result? some poor sod gets points on his licence and the police rake in a few more quid from the fine. This sort of policing doesn't take much and it gets results, However, I then spotted this afternoon, 2 teenage arseholes riding on a motorbike (a big powerful one)probably nicked, on a path with no helmets on. they shot across the road on a pelican crossing right next to Bransholme police station just at the same time as TWO police cars were waiting for the lights to change and these cars were on differing sides of the lights, what did they do? nothing,never even gave the bike a second look, even when they almost ran the school kids over who were using the crossing, why? cos it would have meant they had to do a bit of work and chase the bike, maybe missing their cuppa maybe, it makes me sick

PARTY TIME

Gareth is 21 on Sunday 1st February. We were going to have a party in a pub but he didnt want one, so we were going to just take him out for a meal, anyway, we have decided to have a good old fashioned party at ours for him, you know, the sort that mam and dad used to have when I was a lad, anyway, everyone welcome, Saturday evening 31st january from about 7 30ish all are welcome.

The new Micky Vella

The best prop in the Hull KR team by a long shot is the awesome Mick Vella, He will run at people all day long and does more than his fair share in defence as well. James is doing his best to replicate him right now at sullys, his under 14 side. He has in the last few games come on in leaps and bounds and last weekends game, although only against a Cottingham team that hasnt won all season was by far the best he has ever played. He is still a little bit upset that he hasnt scored a try this season but i have told him, he is doing all the hard work in the middle of the park for others to do the flashy stuff and run in the trys.At one point in the game he did 4 tackles in a row and all from square marker, which is by no means easy. He isnt winning man of the match awards but again, he is doing the donkey work that doesnt get noticed, and I assured him that when Hull and Rovers scouts come looking at youth games, they know what they are looking at and if he is any good they will notice him. This time last year his confidence was rock bottom and his ability was more or less nil because of this. but now, I think im not dreaming too much if I say He could quite easily bag a scholarship with one of the pro teams for next season. keep it up lad, you might get your dream and play for Hull (or Rovers) yet.
