Just to prove their is life in the old dog yet John wheeled himself out for a game of 5 a-side footie for the office. However after approximately 43 seconds of play he discovered that there wasn't that much life in the old dog afterall and was soon looking for a gentlemens exit.
he then took the lead role in introducing the Japanese to the British way of play by shouting obscenities from the touch line - generally not understandable for most people although was certainly one of the loudest on the side lines. Came on again in the second half to put in some dubious challenges and underbreath comments critiquing the opponents game..
After losing the first game and a break I discovered I could run (in the loosest sense of the word) again and didn't appear to have a hole in my throat- which is how it had felt...We still the 2nd game lost though and it came down to a titanic 3rd game when I lasted 3/4 of the game and we scraped a draw 3-3 and then won on penalties.
If I was going to win any awards it would be for the most unfashionable, uncool trainers- black plastic look with red laces- what were they drinking when they decided that? still they were cheap!

no worries mate, you were doing great as defense. all others were chasing the ball like dogs leaving me, the goalie alone, but you were always hanging around keeping me company.
well, practice makes perfect!
