Barnet


After another early breakfast at 6.30 in the plush Moran Crown where waiters hovered I was glad to get going without succumbing to giving a tip! The wind today was very blustery and I never knew which way it was blowing. Barnet was only 9 miles away and I arrived early for my 9.30 appointment with Jane and Guiliano Grazioli. He is injured and has scored against Hereford but what a nice guy! He has a young child so he said he could be here a lot earlier as the babe had got him up! Jane took our photos on the pitch although she kept sinking in the turf because of her high heels! They presented me with a signed pennant and covering letter. Their webmaster took some details for the Barnet website so have a look at what they said. The Arsenal reserves had played there last might and they had left named water bottles in the dugout so I got one. So I did get something from them after all. I also got a couple of Lucozade bags for energy. Then off I set for Watford. I did muse as I went what a nice friendly club Barnet was but I still would like 3 points next time we play them!
