Black Markets- Paddy

Today, I must blog. Tomorrow, I must not. This is the way of the joint blog. Or at least I presume it is, I've never looked for another joint blog in this style. I am forced to assume that amongst bloggers we are unique and therefore, by default, the best blog of this style on the internet.
Mildly arrogant introduction aside, I must move on to a topic for the rest of this blog. Vikki just read out a headline from the Newspaper. It read "DOGNAPPED! Litters of puppies stolen. Thousand pound ransoms. Inside Britain's cruellest black market". Now, the stealing and trafficking of pets whilst being a fairly nefarious deed is a far cry from the cruellest of black markets. I'm pretty sure that Prostitution, Slavery, Drugs and Child Labour are all crueller markets than the kidnap of someones labradoodle. Not that I am condoning the ransom-ing of labradoodles or any other pet for that matter. I just think that the typically middle class paper I get has got it's priorities wrong in regards to the ranking of cruel black markets.
New topic! A conundrum in my life has arisen! On a Friday evening at 7-8 I usually play football. However, England are playing football at almost exactly the same time. This gives me a huge dilemma as to which to choose to do. I think I shall leave now, because I am upset and can't deal with blogging in this state :(
