My Little Black Book


I received my first Christmas present today.

I was delighted.

Well to start with.

It was a little book entitled "What Girls Know About Football"

Black with pink writing about the size of a small diary.

With it a short note.

"Georgie.
Everything that you know about football is contained in this book.
Happy Christmas.
Derek

How lovely I thought.

What a kind gesture.

On the first page a picture of a green teddy holding a sign saying "A Happy Christmas To Some".

The second page was blank.

And the third.

And the fourth.

In fact they were all blank.

Derek - just remember, like all good football fans I have a very very long memory.

Oh and I shall spend the year filling my book with all the things I know about football ready to return to you next Christmas.

In the meantime you may want to reflect on this.

Merry Christmas!

If you intend to fill the whole book I suggest you use a large font 48 perhaps?
Thank you for the reminder about Swindon F.C. I have nicknamed
our goalkeeper Dracula
He is absolutely terrified of crosses.,
