And we're back!
In the interim period, in terms of my football club Southampton F C (the Saints), life could not be better.
You'll remember that at the end of last season, Saints were promoted from League One as runners up so this season we embarked, nervously, on a new life in The Championship.
Well as I write this we are currently top of the league, five points clear of the second place team and our home record reads played eight, won eight! Away from St Mary's we have not fared quite as well but we have still scored 16 goals and only let in 12. Overall we have a positive goal difference of +20, +5 better than anyone else in the league.
As we are now one third of the way through the season, we are starting to begin to think about the possibility of maybe playing Premier League football next season.
It could all go horribly wrong but at present, we are the team that everybody else is talking about.
