Arseblog: Thursday 27th May 2004

may 27th

You know it’s a slow day for Arsenal news when:

  • Yesterday’s headlines are still on NewsNow’s front page
  • The most exciting thing to happen is Stathis Tavlaridis moving to PSG
  • Nobody has even bothered to make up an ridiculous transfer rumours
  • You feel like writing something about Alan Smith’s transfer to Man United

Slow. Pre-Euro2004 slow. As slow as Pascal running through treacle. As slow as…well, you get the idea.

So today my teaching gig finishes until October. There’s been 8 months of grammar, pronunciation, reading, writing, vocabulary and poor unfortunate people having to listen to me for 90 minutes at a time. Well, today they get blessed release. I shall hand out their diplomas, shake their hands and wish them well for the future.

“Good luck”, I’ll say.

They’ll look intensely at me, straight into my eyes, and say, “¿Que?”
