Myself and Bigg went to see Villa v Arsenal today. It was a really good game. Went a bit down hill 2nd half though. I didn't think id ever say this but it was great sitting in with all the Arsenal fans. It was funny.

I've got some other pictures of the teams out on the pitch and John Carews battered up V1s (villa actually sell their pros old boots for £20 in the club shop!) but ill post them all tomorrow!

WTF was our hardman Bigg doing posing with Villa mascots?! That just ain't right...

Actually, something else just wasn't right....and that was me missing 80 whole minutes of the Arsenal vs Villa match!! It's the first Premiership Arsenal goals I've missed watching this whole season, and it made me sick to the pit of my stomach. It was my parents' wedding anniversary, and they conveniently booked dinner, with my sister and I, exactly at the time the match was on. I ended up continually checking the score on the internet on my phone...and I managed to catch the last 10 minutes on a TV in a restaurant I was walking past.

As for getting Carew's old V1's for 20 quid...
That is bloody ridiculous! They have anymore??

Anyways, the rerun of the Arse match is coming on at 2 AM this morning...so there is only one more hour to go! It might mean a late night though...

[appleCORR7]

They had a few other players boots but you kinda had to work out who they belonged too. Someone brought Carews while we were there. I dont think anyone would be able to wear them though they were KNACKERED. I'll post pictures tomorrow and you'll see what i mean!

[red & wite army]

Well I'd just buy them for the sake of it anyway. 20 quid gets you nothing much more nowadays then a shitey England NT shirt:p

Wowa, I can't wait to get to London! I haven't watched Arsenal live since 2004...it's been much too long.

When life does not flash before your eyes....
I tend not to transcribe to too many commonly held beliefs about existence; I don’t experience non-conscious “reflexes” as described in the Autonomic Nervous System model, nor do I believe one must “try everything once”, that everyone is created equal or that all beliefs and choices should be respected. However experientially, once I did have “my life flash before my eyes”. This was as an 10 year old boy right before I missed an open goal, although since then I’ve often joked that my life has since flashed before me and it’s made abundantly clear that I haven’t had enough sex... Anyways, tonight I was in a hairy car crash, well, a mini overtook a bus so was head-on with me at 100mph, I managed to swerve around it onto a grass verge, back onto the road and my 60mph momentum see’s me spinning out of control into the opposite lane. Somehow I avoided oncoming traffic and was unscathed as my skid backed me down a slight bank into a fence, gently! However at the point I was completely unable to affect my own fate I was surprised by my mindset, as I thought nothing of my time on earth.
I gave no mind to my loved ones, or to my enemies. Surprisingly those thoughts that way heavily on my shoulders weren’t present those things I’ve always assumed I’d think/do were shockingly absent. Perhaps at some level I knew I’d be O.K, but I definitely didn’t realise it consciously. Completely calm, which was not a surprise given my preparation for fatality, I had a coherent ponderance, will I feel the pain or will I go instantly? No fear, just intrigue. Shortly after my safety became assured, my focus switched back to the usual pragmatic mindset of a man tight from a lifetime of financial instability, my concern now to the monetary impact of the incident. It’s at this point that my sense of irony takes over precedence, due to the following quirks of coincidence and/or fate:
• I own this car to directly replace its predecessor as the same model. The previous car broke down in almost the exact same spot of this crash, the second night I’d ever driven it....
• The first car was rear-ended in another accident completely the fault of another driver (it was parked up whilst I was in bed FFS!), and almost identical damage lead to it being written off by the insurance company...
• The reason I was driving out that was it’d been out there for its MOT, which it had passed and I was collecting it from being certificated as road-worthy for 12 months. Under a quirk of the dating and electronic renewal of these licences, the car is deemed acceptable for use as of the 20th Dec, so it is officially in full-working order 2 weeks AFTER it has had this crash!
Now obviously the “if only” game can be applied eternally to any situation, and in this instance I should focus on the sheer luck that meant oncoming cars didn’t plough straight into my spinning machine, but I can’t help but to rue the decisions I made, stopping to look around that shop before driving home, the fact I selected that particular route midway around a roundabout a mere quarter mile before having an imbecile hurtle toward me in my lane, the fact that if I’d have been speeding myself I’d most likely have avoided the situation completely....
I was impressed by the public and let down by the services, one driver from behind the bus stopped to see if I was O.K, telling me how recklessly the driver of the mini (a mini!!! Says ALOT!) had been overtaking the whole queue of traffic along this un-lit A road without central divider. His compassion (or nosey interest!) was far more than any of the emergency services. I’d only stayed as I noticed the bus had pulled over, and unsure of the state of my vehicle or the wisdom in fleeing what was indeed an accident scene, I decided to go see how the bus was and what was going on. Only then did I find out the mini had itself spun out and crashed in a mess, wrapping itself around a tree, the driver nowhere to be found. I wait as police, paramedics, more police, more paramedics, 2 fire engines and eventually a police helicopter turn up to investigate. I wait as one by one these all depart, except the original policeman who arrived first EVENTUALLY addressed me, saying he’d seen me there since he arrived. I explain that not just a witness, I am indeed a VICTIM of this accident. He takes my details and suggests a helpful course of action to avoid tow-away costs for my vehicle. A little help from a friend and it was driveable, so I take myself down to the police station to ask for an incident number, as they were unable to provide me one at the time. Nor did they take a statement, the contemporary norm being to ask victims to write their own account to save on paperwork. Indeed the first person to enquire about my health was the guy at my insurance when I called, and presumably he’s prompted to from a checklist by his phone.
So to summate, I could have been killed by some idiot, who may themselves have died in the process. As such I feel no sympathy, and in any case definitely feel anger towards the perpetrator of actions that endangered myself and others so. I feel ignored and marginalised by emergency services more concerned with the wellbeing and whereabouts of the criminal than that of the victim. I feel trepidation for my chances of getting this situation resolved financially without undue expense to myself, and I feel concern of the duration the legal and insurance ramifications will drag out. The one thing I do not feel, however, is any sense of urgency to seize the day and live for the moment, a crying shame given had I been exposed to my own life before my eyes, the lack of living it would have been the recurrent theme haunting me ala the aversion therapy scene in the Clockwork Orange.

Yea that's my rant about why im sat home on a sat night and not out as i was supposed to be....

Think that's the first pic I ever seen where bigg is neither surrounded by hotties or alcohol, u sure it ain't fotoshopped!!!

[appleCORR7]

Hahaha, I know and we reckon it must have been a dude in Bellas suit because she shook and slapped my shoulder and almost knocked me half way across the car park!

How does Case manage to take up almost a full page of the thread, explaining how he almost died tonight...yet Apple simply and humorously replies to Case's point about Bigg's photo?? Girls will be girls...

I really can't say much more then for you to be thankful that you're pretty much perfectly fine after such an incident mate.

[Case]

Haha, im used to girls ignoring me! Tho id have figured apps would have a cheap shot for that, but she does tend to ignore anything over 3 lines in text....
Yea sure im lucky and I know it, but the pessimist in me can't help assuming the fates didn't see this as my time coz they wanna mess with me a few more years yet....
Also, knowing the names of Villas mascots = NOT COOL!!!

[red & wite army]

And to think how close I was to getting away with a free Arsenal home shirt!!:D

I dislike the EPL team mascots to be honest. I know that I'm not exactly the target market, but what exactly is th point of them? I mean...Gunnersauras...wtf?

[appleCORR7]

The Villa lion was really funny. I think the guy in the costume was pissed. He kept dancing around and actually got away with pulling a wanker sign at the arsenal fans at one point. That picture doesn't do it any justice. But from the back the lions head was absolutely MASSIVE.

Anyhow ... few more pictures. Sorry there arent any Arsenal players in them. I only got my camera out in the 2nd half so it was mostly Villa players.

Scott Carson. Loved the "You let your country down!" down chant that was sang to him. He came out to warm up at half time just before the 2nd half kicked off and he was having some balls crossed into him and the Arsenal fans were cheering everytime he caught it. Sad thing was he looked around around at them like 'Whats going on?' hahaha.

Sorry they aren't the best quality. They aren't bad considering we were in the upper tier and i had to use the mega zoom on my camera!

I'll post Carews boots tomorrow in the V1 thread as i had to bluetooth them onto my other computer and i can't be arsed to move at the minute!
