This morning as it was such a nice day I walked to church. I did, however, do this much slower than usual as I was wearing a long sleeve shirt and did not want to build up a sweat on the walk. I managed this task and read a good few pages of David Coulthard’s autobiography which I have started today, it is pretty good so far. The service was good today and after it I had a ten minute chat with Rob with whom I finalised that he would be able to do the address at the wedding leading to us being able to print the order of service.
I walked home again, this time I sped up a little bit so that I could watch as much of ITV’s F1 coverage as possible. I was rewarded with what ended up being a good race with Lewis on a different strategy thus making it more interesting. Lewis pitted three times in the race compared to everyone elses two. His reason for doing this was his tyres were going off quicker and so he didn’t want a puncture like in last years race, he was able to pass Massa on the track which was the highlight of the race and he eventually came 2nd ahead of Raikonnen but behind Massa. This is a good result as it pulls him closer to Kimi. Hamilton’s teammate meanwhile did rather worse after a first lap puncture he was pretty much last for the rest of the race. It was a good race though.
Next up came Fulham’s fight for survival in the premier league. This week saw the last round of games in the league for the season. Fulham were in a prime position to survive but they had to win as their rivals could still stay up if Fulham lost. As Reading and Birmingham both managed to score Fulham sank back into the relegation zone before a relatively late goal from Danny Murphy put Fulham ahead against Portsmouth moving them out of the bottom three. I kind of feel sorry for Reading and Birmingham as they were able to get good wins and yet it ended up meaning nothing. At the same time though I was delighted when Fulham scored and then went on to win the game. Hopefully we will have a better season next time with a decent manager with us from the outset. I talked to Beth for a little while and then went out to get some celebratory cider from Londis. GO FULHAM!!!
Also my father said if I were in London and got a Fulham season ticket he would get one also, that might be quite fun.
