Two of the bedroom pavilions were set as villas within a villa

November 4th, 2008

Two of the bedroom pavilions were set as villas within a villa. Hidden behind its own gate, these pavilions enjoyed their own private swimming pool and garden gazebo. You can choose the one at the top of the estate, or the one at the bottom closer to the river. Just the matter of distance to either the entrance gate at the top or living pavilion closer the river really, both enjoys superb views. Even from the one at the top your views would not be bothered by other buildings.

Peter Bills : Arsenal’s title campaign looks in serious trouble

By anyone’s judgement, Arsenal’s campaign for the 2008/9 Barclays Premier
League title looks in serious trouble.

Writing off a member of the so-called elite top four on the first weekend of
November might seem either wishful thinking (should one be a Tottenham
supporter, as in this case) or downright churlish. Yet the case for the
prosecution demanding Arsenal’s removal from the list of likely champions is
both extensive and merited.

England slump to worst World cup defeat
England empty-handed as Superstars gifted victory

England did not so much lose $20 million last night as hand it gift-wrapped to the Stanford Superstars on a golden platter. In an embarrassing display which demonstrated either that the money on offer – $1m a man – mattered too much or did not matter enough, they were humiliated.

Harry Houdini magic casts spell on Reds

Bottom against top was as one-sided as might have been expected for 70 minutes
in sodden north London yesterday evening, but Liverpool somehow managed to
turn victory into defeat and in doing so, throw away the Premier League
leadership. Chasing a sixth successive win, they led almost from the start
through Dirk Kuyt, only to concede an unlucky own goal by Jamie Carragher
with 20 minutes to play and then suffer a first defeat since March when
Roman Pavlyuchenko scored in added time.

Gunners thrown out of kilter by Delap’s devilish deliveries

Arsenal’s week went from bad to worse yesterday when they meekly succumbed to Stoke City here, blowing a substantial hole in their championship aspirations. By comparison to this, the late collapse against Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday was a night gilded with glory.

Several people claim that credit cards are no other than a heavy yoke to their pocket

November 1st, 2008

Several people claim that credit cards are no other than a heavy yoke to their pocket. They would express their heartfelt hate to the credit companies and banks that do not in any way lower their rates though they maintain a good standing and credibility with them. How could these things go possibly true and untrue?

October 29th, 2008

Many royal and well known people have been owned by a Pug. This started with the Chinese Emperors many centuries ago and continued right up to the Dowager Empress of China who died in 1908. Many European royal families including Napoleon Bonaparte and his wife Josephine fell under the spell of the Pug. More contemporary (and quite diverse) Pug owners included Sir Winston Churchill, Valentino, Andy Warhol and Sammy Davis Jr.

Springbok’s in need of a Test

Given the state of most of the northern hemisphere countries’ rugby teams at
