PHOTO-OF-THE-DAY: WIFE GIVES HUSBAND UNPLEASANT SURPRISE
Can you just imagine this troublesome woman?lol. Not like she bought him a new car or repaired it, she bashed it, parked it and God knows why she would have to make this a surprise for her husband.I can imagine the smile on his face vanishing away slowly when she finally opens his eyes to see the vandalized vehicle. Awwww! The guy was all smiles thinking she wanted to present a wonderful gift. What would her reaction be? Smile? Like what's funny? Remorseful? More like it.But who knows maybe, "It's ok, I'll just fix it or order a new one for you" might be his response…but how many men will say such without bringing the roof down at first?

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SEMI-FINALS: JOSE MOURINHO WRITES CHELSEA OFF
I will never stop adoring Mourinho. Is this the same man who is (allegedly) expected to make his way back to Stamford bridge next season? Why not? Mourinho is blunt anyways either he is resuming in stamford bridge this night or not he says it as it is.
The ex chelsea coach during a short interview this morning said he doesn't see the Blues beating spanish team Barcelona in the Champions League semi-finals.
His words: "Let me be honest, I don't think the final will be a Real Madrid/Chelsea final. It could be Bayern or Barcelona, I just don't think it will be Real Madrid v Chelsea and we know why."
The 49 year-old Portuguese who termed the Barcelona team "super-favourites" had his team join the final four after an 8-2 victory over Apoel Nicosia last night.
He also believes Bayern Munich would prove their worth when Real Madrid faces them
"Bayern is a very powerful opponent. It is a team I know well as it is almost the same side that I played when I was the coach of Inter Milan in the Champions League final two years ago and they have great individual players.
The players and myself are looking forward to what should be a great semi-final." He concluded.
Chelsea players must have heard this and have strongly vowed to prove him wrong. April 18 will surely tell!!!

PHOTO-OF-THE-DAY: ACTRESS SOLA KOSOKO-ABINNA&HUBBY STEP OUT IN STYLE
Since her quiet wedding to a lagos-based architect Biodun Abinna early this year, no one has really seen Sola Kosoko-Abinna attend functions either alone or in company of her husband. (They probably went for honeymoon).
Anyways, they were spotted at a movie premiere last month. They didn't look bad at all.
I like Sola's poise sha, especially the legs, it's not everytime one must stand like a soldier to pose for a photograph.
