Duke attempts the Impossible

Anyway today is the day that Christmas is officially over and I for one am not really sorry.
Its commercial overtones are completely over the top and the spirit is lost IMO. I know that generally people have more disposable income than my parents had but it is sad to see the obscene amount of money spent at Christmas as parents bow to peer pressure in order to satisfy the god that is retail. Don't get me wrong when you have young children the delight in their eyes when the rip off the wrapping paper is very satisfying. However I think that children have come to expect too much in the way of Christmas presents and if the latest, greatest version of the current "must have" present is not under the tree, they actually feel annoyed.
You are of course free to spend your money whatever way you wish, and this is just my humble opinion.

In the news this morning Nigel Clough has taken over as boss at Derby.
The job of a manager in football these days is tough enough, but he will always be compared to his Dad. This is unfortunate as he has done a great job at Burton and is probably ready for the step up to a bigger club. I hope he does well and is judged on his own merits and not put under any pressure because of the exploits of his illustrious Father.

Credit where credit is due.
I feel I must congratulate Des on his moderator appointments.
There are some forums that have moderators who are a soulless lot and this could be due in turn to the clientele that frequent those particular forums. APAT moderators are full of fun and friendly banter and are due a drink from me when we meet (If I can beat Des to the bar).
APAT is the best run forum with the nicest bunch of people who post there and long may it continue and prosper.
