I have now submitted the final copy to the publisher and we are moving forward. The slight delay was for a number of resons (mostly good) and it was quite interesting reviewing this after a break of about 3-4 months; some change was needed.

Quote of the day - Inspiration and pride

by blog1812962 on Sun 10 Dec 2006 08:06 PM GMT

I was talking to my daughter Sarah about the quality of hockey at her school; which I had not really appreciated until I saw the pride they took in representing the school. She replied that they were never allowed to forget the school's heritage and tradition. Every time they ran onto the pitch 'Sir Clive' Large their coach reminded them - 'Remember who you are playing for'.

In those few words he had captured something which stuck in the mind of a 14 year old - lifting the performance of her and the team.
