[Sweder]

BB's right of course. My output has cranked up considerably due to a return to physical endeavours. It's all just brain-dumping at the moment but writing is for me wholly comparable (and compatible) with running. A common fundamental is to 'get back into it'. In running terms that means a few stodgy sweaty slogs. For writing read indiscriminate, sometimes nonsensical brain-dumps :o

I found time for the former this morning, clocking a pleasing 46 minutes under fresh, sunny skies, but not the latter. As soon as I fired up Old faithful e-mails battered by inbox like a gulf coast weather system

I did have one random thought about the recent madness at St James's Park. Newcastle should immediately appoint Alan Shearer as their new manager. By his own admission Shearer has limited/ no knoweldge of the demands of the position, making him in my view an ideal candidate. He is revered on Tyneside and is also - and here's the clincher for me - stocky enough to give that unctious little hemorrhoid Dennis Wise a slap. The (blind) faithful will flock to Shearer's call, buy a raft of new merchandise and hail the dawning of a brave new world in crackling Geordie harmony. Howay th' Lad!
