Quick Bits & Bobs: A Day Off, Lots Of Posing, The Thigh Master, Breakfast Music & A Manpile

Super quick post – it’s been a hectic day and now I have to race off to celebrate the birthdays of watishista Dollo & watishisto El Fano.  So excited to see the whole gang!

Los Blancos had the day off and Sergio went into the studio to watch his buds Miguel Poveda and Manuel Carrasco record a duet.

Talk Like El Pirata Day

Since it’s Talk Like A Pirate Day, might I suggest an alternative for us RM fans? How’s about Talk Like El Pirata Day?

Are you ready? Okay, let’s go: Bukowski, Ray Bans, Lorca, semiotics, cloves, art, pea coat, Fleet Foxes, Leiva, Kafka, Carver, Russian Red, Moleskine, etc. etc. etc.

To that we should add our own adjectives: hot, perfect, wonderful, true Madridista, charmer, etc. etc. etc.

I miss him.

It’s Official: El Pirata To QPR

And may hellfire rain down upon whomever thought this was a great idea. Damn it all to hell. Arbeloa said it best on Twitter “I wish you the best my friend even though it’s less than you deserve. You don’t know how much we’ll miss you. ARGH. Exactly.

Modric Gets Right To Work And Other Bits & Bobs

Modric didn’t waste any time – he got busy immediately.  Poor El Pirata. He looks stunned by a blunt  object in this picture (well in several of them). More midfield competition for him.

Some Quick Social Networking Bits & Bobs

Iker posted a photo with Doce. He’s making a totally adorkable face, isn’t he? I can’t believe how big Doce has gotten. What a beautiful dog.

More Of Yesterday’s Valdebebas Session

Of course, both Real Madrid and Daylife added lots more pictures of training yesterday after I’d gone off for the evening. I attended (along with Shiggers, ginboonmiller and Billina) a reading in the East Village. It was a very good friend of our’s who has a new book coming out in January. She was amazing and of course, we got tipsy and giggly. Me especially, because I didn’t have time for dinner before the reading. I stumbled home, ate some ice cream and called it a night. So you get a double dose of training booty today. Believe it or not, that is Albiol’s arse on the right! He’s giving Pipita a run for his money in the Applebum stakes right there.
