So here’s an interesting tidbit: there’s a Boston Celtics v Minnesota Timberwolves NBA basketball game going on live in London tonight at the O2 arena in Greenwich. Slightly strange, yes, but they’re also bringing over the Miami Dolphins and New York Giants to play an NFL football game at Wembley on the 28th of this month. The strangest thing, though, is the sound of a true Londoner (Cockney to an extent; think Michael Caine, Bob Hoskins or anyone from either of Guy Ritchie’s films Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels or Snatch) commentating on an American basketball game. It’s very odd to listen to. It’d be like an American commentating on cricket. It just doesn’t go.
And by the way, the fourth day of quitting smoking hasn’t been too bad. The only thing that sucks is that I have to work until 6.00 every night this week (stupid rota). Thankfully the communications team has had a couple of interesting website tasks for me to do starting around 3.30 each day. They have kept me busy and not bored so that’s been good.
good job! I’m proud of you. Just remember, if this doesn’t work just get pregnant & you won’t want to smoke anymore
ok, just kidding! It worked for me!
