Good week of Ski Training last week, Monday Gravity Gates Session was punishing and lots of gates. Tuesday and Sunday good training sessions.
Really enjoyed the Aviva Premiership Final at Twickenham on Saturday, with Leicester Tigers beating the Northampton Saints. It was amazing to see the way the Saints targeted Toby Flood and Ben Youngs, with some crunching tackles taking Flood out of the game. Good job Tigers didn’t depend on Ford, Flood’s replacement, to get points from kicks !. Learnt one major thing from Saturday and the RFU decision to bang Dylan Hartley, no matter how upset you get never shout abuse at the Referee or other players. An 11 week ban means he missed out on a career moment of playing for the British Lions.

Sunday was school project completion day, and it looks amazing, then helping in the garden for pocket money !
So this week at School its Fun Activity Days, with cycling activities, ice skating and book making.
Another sport week as well, Monday going to Wembley to watch the Championship Play-off between Crystal Palace and Watford (not sure who to cheer on – went for Palace in the end, and overall they probably deserved the win!)
Tuesday night watching the MK Dons V Chelsea Under 15’s (ended 1:4 to CFC, but some good play from both sides) (gone from 80,000 at Twickenham, to 86,000 at Wembley to 1,221 at StadiumMK, back to another 80,000+ at Wembley for the England game)
Then back to Wembley on Wednesday to watch England v Ireland. Ireland played well and closed down England all the time, and we didnt use Walcott and the Ox as wide players enough. We will struggle against Brasil, and no I am not going to that match !
As I can’t make MK Ski Race Training, my Mum & Dad are coming free skiing with me for a couple of hours on Friday, just to get the felling of the snow again in readiness for Sunday !
Saturday we are on the Harry Potter Tour at the Warner Bros Studio !
Sunday is ERSA Ski Race at Milton Keynes, so fingers crossed ! And watch this space. (Wonder what Officials role Dad will get on Sunday ? – Update : Dad is Gate Judge 4 for the Slalom and Gate Judge 3 for the Dual Slalom)
This coming week was suppose to be a quiet week ! doesn’t look that way !
