Freezing on a Tuesday night...

...but the Clarets gained 3 valuable points in a lacklustre game at Turf Moor.
By the time the final whistle blew I was chilled to the marrow (hey! it's football...it's full of cliches!)
I'm not proposing to report on the actual match, as other do it so much better..but I was amused to have my bag searched on the way in - must look like a middle aged hooligan!
Then I managed to drop my ticket (it was a very windy night)...despite NOT detaching it until I was actually inside the turnstile...Luckily it was handed back to me .
Leaping to celebrate the 2nd goal I managed to hit my shin on the seat in front (I hate all seater gounds!)..
And I think that an extra layer (or two) of clothing is called for to ensure that sitting on a plastic seat, in the path of the wind, watching a football match on a cold evening , does not lead to hypothermia!
BUT...we won.That's the main thing!!
(and I've learned how to put a link in a post...)

In the summer,a colleague of my husband ran from John O Groats to Land's End, raising thousands of pounds for charity (link added - Mark's next big run).
Mark is planning to run across the USA in 2011, and his blog will be following his progress.
