Oi Webbo,
Somebody informed me the other day that you had posted on "your" forum that I had stopped updating the league table on the web-site.
Well, er yes, but no.
Now I meant to clarify this with you last evening when we were chatting on the chien but I forgot and have just tried to get on to "your" web-site to correct impressions only to discover that my password didn't work. Am I banned? Nah, probably it's just a techie thing.
I am reluctant to clog this forum with trivia but feel compelled to offer my side of the story. I have faithfully updated the league table all season long and at times, have been waiting for just one final result to come in, finger poised ready to hit the button. It has been that quick. Words like manure and shovel come to mind.
Now I have to confess that I was a little tardy in attending to the matches on the final Saturday of the season and I seem to remember one further match that might have been played the following Tuesday. The reasons for said tardiness on the Saturday can be laid very firmly at the door marked "Alcohol". We went to a party on the Saturday evening and had left early that afternoon as we had to drive some distance and check into a hotel.
On the Sunday morning (or was it afternoon?) I woke up with a start and thought "Goodness, gracious, me" or words to that effect, "I haven't updated Webbo's league table". Grabbing Mrs MtM, I rushed home only to find that the table had already been updated. "Can't have been Webbo" I muttered, "he was never that quick when he was doing it!". Anyway, come the following Tuesday, I sauntered over to the laptop to update, I think, the one and final result of the season, and saw to my horror that the table had already been modified.
So, had I stopped updating it or had I just been slow? Have I been sacked? I fear the worst.
I shall be updating it next season, as ever, and re-iterate my offer to you the other month that if you require any other jobs to be done on the web site, you only have to ask. And as yet, you haven't.
You naughty boy, you!!
And by the way, I know it's not "your" website!
