bit dead

well what a crap summer so far, most my weekend trips and days out have been put on hold as of this rubbish weather, but ive managed to get some of my computer work done which ivebeen putting off,

been busy downloading quite a few films watched that ironman film the other night and was quite inpressed, and it didnt have a stupid ending either and quite looking forward to watching the next film in the series iam going to dowload hellboy 2 soon but iam waiting a little while as when a film 1st comes to download its mainly done with a person holding a camcorder in the cinima which aint quite good, i dont mind waiting a couple of more weeks and get a better copy,

my training is going quite well been on a few long bike rides this week and i cycled 10 miles in 50 minuets and quite happy with that, iam sticking with my one takeaway a week but given more thoguht about my beer intake i have reduced how much i do drink in these last few weeks and iam drinking to the goverments safe drinking limits so iam not goign to bother packing the drinking up totaly,

i did go out the other friday night with some mates from work and i had 1 pint then went on soft drinks and had another pint at the end of the night and it was good seeing my mates getting drunk, and i didnt have beer goggles on and i must say some of the girls are beasty and getting worse, no wonder iam still single, anyway my local is having a do 2mora night so ill pop in and have a pint or 2 but not a takeaway as ive already had one this week and iam sticking to my 1 takeaway a week

iam off to do some work and stay safe out there as the nutters are still about

training

since ive been training for the robin hood challenge ive had a go at changing my diet a couple of times and now think ive got my diet kind of right, ive deffo got more energy and losing weight at the moment my daily eating pattern consists of, in the morning i either have a low fat thick milkshake or a mouse with fruit, have a proper dinner at lunchtime, then for my evening meal ill have some cerial with more fruit and if iam a little peckish at nite time i can have either more fruit or mouse

and i can still have one takeaway a week as well so all goods there, i'd thought about packing up drinking for a while and after much thought iam now going to have a couple of pints on a friday night after work i dont think that will hurt, i have noticed i can now fasten up all of the top buttons on my shirts once again and fit into some which have been thrown in a draw for ages

regarding my training i can now run 3 miles iam now also progressing with my free weights which i found much harder than machine weights, so by september i think ill be almost ready and my body a temple kind of anyway

also got some good news yesterday i have a job interview at the university where i work for a permament building attandents job, at the moment iam working at nottingham uni through an agency which is okay but i would like the job to be permament

so fingers crossed will be a good end to a rubbish start to the year if i get through the robin hood challenge and get a permament job

righty speaking of work iam at work and best get something done stay safe and dont get hurt out there

nothing much happening

the weekend seemed to go quick saturday i was working in a corner shop with me dad putting an alarm system in and all the be carefulls from me dad he his clipiing a cable over the counter where the till lotto maching and other gubbins are and he his his nail through a mains water pipe,

lucky for us the indian who owned the shop knew a plummer and he was out within 15 minuets to sort the problem out i can tell yeh it was a bit of panic for half an hour to work out where the main stop cock was but we found it and saved the day

that bit of a water leak could of cost us a small fourtune and we havnt got public lieabilty insurance but we have now, so if any more prolems arise the customer can claim from us no problem, but all the years my dad has been working he has never had any prolems and never needed insurance,

sat nite saw me go out and i got very drunk, and i was quite ill sunday morning in fact i was rough as hell all day, but ive lifed another day to tell the tale of my drunkenss, i was that bad i went to pee in the ladies loo

anyroad iam off home to sort some pics out ive been taking ill most probly post them up here on on my flickr page thingy

the local pub

have been driving round nottingham the last couple of days and suprised how many pubs are either boarded up or have to let signs on, one question ill ask now is WHAT IS HAPPENING TO OUR LOCAL PUBS????

well one answer is well the cost of living these days as its going up and up and our wages arnt we cant spent on luxarys like we once could, also the cost of a pint i could once go out about 10pm every night for a couple of pints iam now lucky if i can go out 3 times a week and if your a couple the cost is even more,

last monday i was waiting in town for my bus so went into the turf taven as ive not been in for ages and wondered what it's like these days its changed into a rock pub nothing fancey, i asked for a pint to tetleys smooth and what came out of the pump wasnt a smooth pint at all but a very wishy washy pint so i asked him if he could pull another pint off and he did and the same thing happened a very watery wishy washy pint

i asked if i could have a pint of cider instead he said yeh still the same price as the bitter which was 3 quid, quite expensive i'd thoguht and got my cider sat down and a bloke and his bird came in and asked for 2 pints, and that was 6 quid so 4 pints comes to 24 quid a expsenive nite out hey

think now people dont come out as much is cos of peoples drinking habbits have changed women used to drink mainly halfs or beer or something of the like, now its a pint of beer or a large glass of wine that can in some pubs be a quite expesnive round these days

so if a couple have 4 drinks at 20 quid and if that couple once went out more than once or twice a week that 20 quid can turn into 60 or 80 quid a week on justbeer and most peiople cant afford that these days on beer,

its a shame to see the local boozer goign down the pan i went out for a couple of pints the other sunday with me dad and and he was amazed that a couple of pubs he went in have been boarded up or shut early as no one came into the pub, and if there is a local its been bolloxed by being turned into a resturant

just like the bell in town thats been a bit bolloxed they have done a goodish job of doing the pub up but you can now eat in every room of the pub, as in the good old days of the bell you could go in to the side rooms have a quite pint read of the paper or a chinwag with yeh mates now you'll have people eating round you, i dont know maybe iam being old fashioned and not changing with the times of the moden age or something

the local pub will soon be a thing of the past andyes some local pubs are a bit rough but its a bit of carater ive seen 2 local pubs bolloxed by going all modern and new and the toby jug is being took over by weatherspoons and they have got the co-op next to it so that will be one big boozer may be a good thing justhave to see

not getting into trouble

think its time for some old childhood memoreys, when i was a kid i had a best mate called ben, he lived in bulwell but when he was aroond 14 he went to a normal mainstreem comp school, well when he went to a normal comp school he started to get in a little bit of trouble not bad but was enough,


at our age of a mere 14 years old we got a bit adventurous one of the things we did were go try and get into old and empty buildings we started by chucking stones at windows and the like but i knew this was wrong and didnt do this as much as my mate was, as kids you stop at each others houses and he invited me to stop at his for the purpos to come back to said building at night time and break in and just cause a bit of trouble,


with me being me i said i had other things to do and went home, i did so and the next morning i went to see if i could come round his mum said he'd been grounded cos him and another mate got caught breaking into a building last nite the both got a caution and a good telling off by his parents, and i avoded getting into trouble like this quite a bit,


quite lucky realy that i was never in trouble with the cops graduly me and my mate lost touch but i did bump into him a few years later when i was about 20, and he hadnt done much with his life he was on the drugs and ive not seen him since, i do hope he is okay as we were good mates think ill have to use facebook to track him down

weekend, dickhead 1, new bike, and dickheads and meeting up

afternoon all what a nice day its been, its took me ages today to get me arse into gear and been like this for the last week and a bit, this cant be arsed mood passes soon

had a bit of a busy weekend off even tho ive had a whole weekend off 1st time for ages, gotten me car washed and polished and looks quite nice now,

got me jobs all done which have all piled up, one of the things ive been doing is putting my new bike through its pases and iam quite inpressed can cycle up more of the hills which i couldnt do on the old bike so quite happy

caught up on a bit of telly watched 2 weeks worth of stuff ive taped on the idiot box but sat nite telly is horrible and dont think its going to get any better soon,

thursday i was in tesco and i was trying to find some packet milkshake as is a lot cheaper and tastes just as good as some of the stuff you buy for over a quid and while i was looking for the milkshake stuff some chap asked me do i work here, looked at him and i said no i dont but think that person dose over there dose, he then said to me dont need to be rude,

fuck me i was only pointing out that an acual tesco person would help him better well next time ill not bother even talking to a person who asks me something in a supermarket

also sat nite i met up with a girl ive been chattin to on facebook, and went quite well had a nice nite and she was normal and not a freak from the another planet like the last girl i met from the net

as the last time i met a girl from the net she ended up being a stalker and took a girl from the local pub to ring her and pretend to be my girlfriend and once the girl from the local let rip she soon stopped txting me, i might write a indepth post about that sometime soon, but this girl i met from facebook was very nice and we got on okay i think had a good chat and hope we can meet again,

i took the bus to work today as i couldnt be arsed to cycle and had to pop into town and do a couple of things, bus was coming upto the traffic lights the green lights came on for the traffic to carry on with there journey, but the idiot public still wanted to cross the road with a big fuck off bus driving on the same bit of road,

mr bus driver gave the idiot public an hoot of his horn most cleared the road and stoped at the side of the road but 2 silly cunts still had to give the finger and what the fuck look, just a note to the idiot general public when your red man is on fucking stop at the side of the road untill your green man comes on then there will be no need for a mad rush to the other side or the road

right iam off as ive got some work to do, and stay safe

new bike

these last couple of days ive been looking at buying a new bike as the one i got last year is not realy good enough now as iam much fitter and its not very strong enough, also it has front and back suspension and i just cant get used to the back suspension as when i go on slightly rougher ground i am bouncing all over the shop

so yesterday i went into halfords well you can forget them cos the bike i would like they start at nearly 300 quid, and walking around there bikes and they were offering insurance so if your bike breaks down they will fix it for free and even if you get a puncher they will fix that free if you take out there insurance, all well and good but if you get a puncher and your miles away from a halfords store how the crap are you going to get the bike to the shop hey?

i think sod the insurance learn to fix and mantain your own bike like i have done, on my bike i carry a spare inner tube so if i get a puncher on the road i can just quickly replace the tube then worry about patching the broken tube when i get home, i also carry a spare cable for my breaks and gears so i can fix my bike on the road, you don't need to carry many tools at all and if you break down miles away from home you can fix it there and then ans carry on with your journey

i have however found a bike for £180 and it should of cost £250 from my local bike shop, and its the bike i want as well its got 21 speed pump gears rather then your normal twist grip gears and its a all round trek bike so i am going down in a bit and pay a deposit on the bike,
and hopefully pick it up in a couple of days

women the route of all evil

what can i say about women the felmale breed, they can make you feel great the next crapo as hell as if you ever watchedthe telly show bottom woment are the route of all evil was richy and eddies fav saying and it can be true in all case's

ive been thinking of late that i wishi was a vulcan from startrek vulcans are supposed to have no feelings or emotions i whis i was one of those vulcans would make life so much esyer, i know ive had a few to many beers and vodkas and dandilion and burdocks but what he hell its saturday nite and ive worked nearly 70 hours this week i deserve a drink or many inthis case

but to fuck with the female breed all they cause is hurt and pain to the man in this world, i think ill be single now for the rest of me life fuck the female race who needs them when you have a left or right hand and a good imanganiation

fuck it all its not woth the hasssle well not at the moment anyway, nite all and stay safe

training

one of the things ive noticed about myself this week that my man boobs are almost gone, and my belly is getting quite toned up as well and my neck seems to be less flabby, so just think if i keep this up and by the time of marathon day ill look quite a bit differnet, and to prove it to myself ill put a pic of when i was quite overweight to what ill be in spetember

and ive still not worked out how to use me new watch but give me time i will, anyway ive to go get some work done as iam at work, so stay safe out there,

school crimbo show 1988 i think

well here is a pic of me and my old school mates from 1988 and one of our crimbo shows which were normaly quite good, i had a broken arm that crimbo as well iam 1st peraon top left, and if you hadnt guessed it was a robin hood play


cheeky bugger

friday driving home i heard a flapping noise in my engin and got it home but couldnt see much as it was almost dark, so sat morning me and my dad had a look and thoght it was the cam belt was about to snap as it was hanging on by a thread,

so as it was still under warranty i took it nervously back to the garage, and managed to get it there without the belt snapping as ive had a cam belt snap onme once before now, so the chap had a look at it and mentioned it was the fan belt ah i said it under the warranty isnt it and the guy said yep leave it with us and we'll sort it, and by tea time that same day i got a call saying they had fixed it

so tuesday morning i picked me car up, and just for some information i asked them when i come for my mot how much would a service cost the chap said to start with we charge 105 quid for labour for a service then it could be anything upto 250 quid, my mouth dropped open, i told him i normaly do the service meself on me other cars and said it might of been a change to let someone else do it, but at those prices ill carry on doing the work on this new car meself

i can get the parts including breaks for the service for around 70 quid and it'll takeme a morning to do the work, but what cheek hey

watches

as iam getting into my training for the robin hood marathon in september ive been wanting to buy one of those sport watches which counts the calories and distance i travel, ive looked in places like argos and the like and found the watches are quite expesive, but i had a idea to look on amazon and found the perfect watch it dose everything i want and more and at a reasonable price of 25 quid rather than the 60ish quid plus, so i ordered it and it came to my workplace today

on opening the box and looking at the watch for the 1st time i'd thought nice and for the 1st time i did have a look at the user guide which i never normaly do with things i buy, all iam going to say is its going to take some time to get me head round how the bluddy thing all works, ive only just found out how to set the time and date, and reading thurther on in the book it starts asking for my info like hight weight and so on, i'd thoght it would be a case of putting the watch on pressing a button to the callorie and distance thing and seeing how far ive done, but no not that simple

ah well its going to be a quiet afternoon at work so ill spend a bit of time getting used to me new watch and the thousands of functions it has, i wonder if it makes a cup of yorkshire tea,

have a goodun and stay safe

oh dear oh dear what have i done

someone give me a slap across the face as iam feeling a little bit sureal as ive just entered the 13.5 mile robin hood marathon in september yes this year,

ive now got a lot of training to do witch ive already kind of started doing iam doing some outdoor running ive had a go at running round colwick park and round the grounds of the university where i work, and looks like ive got a coach one of me mates wifes from the local pub as she has run quite a lot of marathons in the past so she will be good to get advise and train with her,

yes ive started outdoor running its either been at the moment very early morning or late eve when ive finished work as i dont want to show myself up with how unfit iam at the mo but i did suprise myself tho as i managed to run round half of colwick park before i wanted to passout or puke my guts up, but give it time ill be able to run round all of colwick park and even thurther, i have noticed running on the tread mill at the gym is totaly different than running on the grass or concreate path but ill get used to it and it will be a big challenge

as ive not done realy any fittness training at all realy since i was 18, but i joined a gym in november, and even from november ive noticed a bit of an inprovment in my fitness and now running 10 mins when i 1st started my gym thingy i couldnt realy do a fast 10 min walk without wanting to pass out or break out in a heavy sweat, but iam happy with my progress and with the help with my personal trainer me mates wife from the local pub ill be ready and fit in no time

have a goodun all and stay safe

old friend

these last couple of weeks ive been tracking down old school friend by using facebook and found quite a few, ive also found one of my best friends who i 1st started school with in 1985 we both started on the same day we were in the same class till we left school in 1992 we also shared the same unit and bed room as we both borded at school

ive not seen my old mate since july 1992 and yesterday i went to meet him, i was a little suprized as i rememebr him being very skiny and he was smaller than me, but when i saw him yestersay he stood taller than me at 6ft 1ins he still was paralized down his right side but that has not stopped him making something out of his life

he went to collage to learn about gardening and he worked as a gardener untill last year, he own's his own house and is very indipendent he can almost do every normal every day things apart from his ironing but if you saw him when he was 5 years old and to see him now its quite an achevement to what he has done,

anyway when i saw him yesterday and to say we havnt seen each other for 15 years it was like we were never been apart, we spoke for a few hours catching up on each others life and now ive got back in touch hopefuly we'll never lose touch again, ive been asked to stop over in lincoln one sat nite so we can go out for a few beers which will be fun

i have found some old school pics and ill post them up here at a later date laters all and stay safe

what a manic few days

what a couple of busy days, since ive last posted ive helped caught a flasher at work, the flasher was a chap in his mid 30's been flashing for a weeek and we couldnt gethim till now cos he was on a moutain bike, so we got our heads together and decied to sit around the uni and just wait for him, after a bit of time, one of our guys spotted him on cctv he radioed one of our guys to warn us he was coming,

we see's him coming along the broadwalk we wait till he's halfway along the broadwalk and all of a sudden there were 5 of us pounced on him, he looked a bit shocked with being surrounded by 5 chaps or it could of been that he was also knocked off his bike, but we got him, a well planned operation but we got our man,

after further investigations we found that the same guy was a person from last year, we got a couple of complaints from staff and students that there was a chap riding a bike along the boradwalk and aruond the university ground shouting and swearing at people but as soon as we got the complaints and started to investigate the guy sudenlyed stopped

ah well he's been caught and he'll probly get some help now, also in other news ive lost 6ibs in weight in 2 weeks now ive been going to the gym again and need to get something sorted with jjoining a running club to help me prepair with running in the robin hood marathan in september,
got a couple of busy weekends again last weekend i was working with me dad, this weekend going to southampton to see a mate then next wekend iam working with me dad again then the nextone iam helping an other mate finish lay his patio and hopefuly ill get a weend to go camping before to long,

but for today iam going to be going to the gym in a bit sort a bit of music on my ipod for the bit of driving iam going to be doing then this afternoon ill be gonig to a pub or 2 and have a well ernt beer, and watch the world go by i think

righty have a goodun what ever your doing and just hope the weather stays nice

vodka

i like a vodka every now and again normaly with coke, but ive been stopping in a bit lately and have a vodka with various mixers and one of my fav mixers with vodka is vimto i think pubs should serve more differnt mixers even if its just in the little bottles or cans,

so what mixers in vodka do you like to drink or tryed which you have either liked or not liked

taking the piss or what

i was reading the evening post before i came to work today, and was a story in it about a chap who crashed his car and ran off,

the officers were a bit concerned for the chaps wellfare and called in the sniffer dogs and the helecoper but could not find him, but 2 days later they traced him to his parents address and found him, he owned up and the coppers found he had been banned from driving for 28 months and was already 2months into his ban,

he said he crashed cos he saw a badger on the road and tryed to avoid it but he ended up smashing in to the ditch, he went to court and was fined 60 quid and banned for a longer time and had points on his licence and was told he could not go out at night time for a coulpe of months,

what a pisser if it was me i would of banged him in prison for 6 months, as he was driving with no insurance no driving licence and no mot, what if he hit someone that person wouldnt have much of a chance of claiming of him as he has no insurance, no wonder people are doing crime as the silly punishments they are given

this chap can now get into another car and drive that around till he gets caught again i dont know just another example of crazy britan

i say lock the cunts up if they do the crime again lock them up again but for longer then if they do the crim a 3rd or a 4th time chop a finger off or osmething to make them think 1st if i knew i was going to get a finger choped off i would think about doing something wrong again

strange old week

hope you all been safe and not been stabbed this week but to me this week has been a bit of a strange week, nothing much has happened made most of the weather while we've had nice weather the last couple of days been out on me bike had my dinner at wollaton park before work one day which was nice

hopefully this weekend ill pop to skeggy for the day take me chuckaway bbq walk along the beach find a quiet spot and have a bbq and a read of my book with a couple of bottles of beer, make a nice end to a dull week

watched the new series of big brother last nite seems a mixed bag of fuck twits, i think that blind scotish guy will win and that bluddy chinese drawf what planet did the big brother cheifs find her from hey,

good to see the protesters on our roads once again hope they'll stage one huge protest and close all of britan down for a week or 2 it will not bother me if i cant use my car for a while ill just use my bike, but to the point most people use there cars these days for pointless journeys like going to the shops when they could just walk or when a mother has a twat carrier with one kid in it taking the said kid to school, i dont know when will the madness end

righty iam off to start the lock up at work early as iam trying to finish early as iam off to get pissed this eve or try anyway

what a craper

hasnt it been crap weather wise these last few day, ive been wanting to come to work on me bike but as its been chucking it down not had chance hope the weather gets better soon hey,

was watching the news yesterday and what a whole load of gloom, no wonder everyone is fed up with things, all you seem to hear about it someone eithier being shot stabbed or how crap our goverment are, me ive had enough so iam not going to watch the news for a bit and iam even chaging the paper i read as iam getting fed up of reading about politics and how bad we are getting taxed these days

but on the plus side iam planning this months camping trip might go to tenby in wales or go to berwick and camp near the scottish border and also this month off to see a old friend who ive just got in touch with be good to catch up and have a few beers again

iam off so stay safe you lot and dont get stabbed for 20p

school

this week ive got in touch with a old school friend through facebook, and he is about the only mate ive not seen siince leaving school, we were quite good mates at the time as well iam meeting him and his wife and 2 kids tomorrow for a bit of lunch and have a catch up

it will be good as there are so many memorys and good times also there are a lot of bad times as well i will post some of my memorys of my school days on here starting with the dawn house riot


my school was a special needs school i had speech and language and learning problems but the school help me with these and now iam almost okay i do still have a bit of a speech problem but not as bad asi was when i was a kid its hardly noticeable now but comes on when iam nervous or when iam trying to speak quicker than i can think

also my school was a boarding school as kids came from all over the counrty and it helped most of us that we could stop all week and come home friday for the weekend and come monday morning back to school for the week, in the evenings we had what we called house parents look after us even tho we had seperate unit block one block for the youner kids and one unit block for the older kids the house parents kept treating us like yound kids

at this time i was being bullyed big time i was telling the teachers about it but nothing was happening, and when i tryed to fight back i could take on 1 of the other kids but when his mate saw me kicking seven bells of shit out of his mate he came to help out and i ended up worse off

well it was getting to fever pitch everyone was uptight with each other and kids picking on each other and was'nt a very nice situation it was a monday morning and i wasnt wanting to go to school cos of the bullying but my mum talked me round to go to school, but by monday evening i was calling home to get picked up as it was to much so my dad came to pick me up and took me home

during the week i had off i was taught the basics of karate and judo came in very handy when i got back to school the following week, so i gets back to school the following monday in class i was hearing whispers of certain older kids baracading themselfs in the senior unit block for almost a week in protest of how the houseparents kept treatng them like kids and not teenagers and i was wanting to know more

so comes 1st break time we were on the field i was chatting to my mates asking what had happened , they told me about 30 kids had gathered enough food for a week and baracaded themselfs in the unit block, while we were chatting what had happened the ring leaders of the bullies came over to me and asked me where i was last week during the riots i told them to mind there own business,

but they wanted a fight once again so a big circle formed around us and they not knowing i could fight better now decieded to show me what for, the 1st kid i blocked his punched time after time and he had a look of pusslement on him, his mate jumped on my back and i chucked him over my back with him supprised and dazed i managed to smack the other kid a few times and by now both ringleaders had enough and ran away i had a few cheers and claps from my mates and it was all over

strange realy as since that fight they was never any more bullying not while i was there and i was kind of top dog, and for the 2 ring leaders i did get round to giving them a good pasting a few times before they left a year later

can tell you loads more about my school days but you'll have to wait for future posts for more

weight update

i joined a gym last november and the 1st 3 months i was doing realy well lost over half a stone in 2 months, but since then ive not done much apart from go twice a week to the gym, my weight for the last 4 months hasnt realy changed, ive not lost any or gained any and my weight fluxuation has been about 3 lbs a week which according to one of the gym trainers is about right so iam in a way quite happy but would of been by now more to my ideal weight but least ive not put all my weight back on like i did last time,

this last month ive started going to the gym again 4 times a week, and reached a new milestone yesterday when i ran for a full 15mins i was well inpressed with meself and notice the last 2 weeks ive been losing 3lbs a week so if i can keep at that ill be on the way quite quickly to getting to my ideal weight which is 13 and a half stone so just a stone and a half to lose

iam also joining a sunday morning running club as well and my 1st session will be next sunday, which iam quite looking forward to as ill be running with other people who can push each other my 1st aim is to get to run a mile in under 5 mins like i used to when i was 14 years of age

so far so good

well it didnt rain yesterday got all i wanted done now today i can do my other jobs which are maily on the pc and ill get some game play don on gta 4 which iam quite hooked on at the moment, and for this eve ill watch a few films and have some supper 2mora is going to the big wok its well worth a fiver to eat as much as you want

and last nites eurovision contest well what can you say we were crap again, but at least the wogan master made it worth a laugh right iam off to play gta 4 and what ever have a goodun

silly moo




was cycling to work earlyer and when i got to town center i walked through as the traffic is so busy and was at the traffic lights waiting for the lights to turn red and a woman next to me said these lights are taking there time to change to red arnt they, i looked at her then noticed she haddnt pressed the button for the lights to turn red, so i mentioned it might be a good thing to press the button just next to you and she just looked at me a little red, so she did and the lights did turn to red and we both crossed she was still a bit red faced
looks like the weekend is going to be a washout with the rain and all but iam not to bothered as i had a good weekend last weekend so iam just going to have a quiet one this weekend, got a bit of computer work to catch upon and and some telly to watch and there most probly be a trip to the pub over the weekend at some time and also will try and get a roof rack sorted out for me car and also a hand free phone kit sorted as well
have a good and safe weeknd iam off to kick a few students in

nice weekend

all went well this weekend got to whitby and back without and problems had a nice rest a few beers and lots of food, friday saw me getting to the campsite for half 2 and by half 3 i was all set up and having a cuppa tea and a cob, then had a walk along the cliff top to scarbrough which was quite a few miles, had a few beers got chatting to a couple of the locals then caught the bus back to near my campsite which i had a 30 min walk when the bus droped me off, then cooked supper which was chicken cassarole rice and new spuds




sat morning walked into whitby after a full english breakfast which again i cooked myself had a good old walk round whitby sat on a bench watching a couple of people fishing and was getting a little hungry so i went to magpies chippy and got a fish and mushy peas and that was the only meal over the whole weekend i didnt cook, after a bit more walking round i went back to the campsite listened to the footy while geting the bbq started




then the evening saw me having a walk along the cliff top and by these next pics you can probly guess what i did after a hours walk on the cliff top






can of cider

boxing

hello all i know its been a while since ive posted but been busy and not arsed but just a quicky while iam in the mood i will post a full update of whats been happening in farmer daves world 2mora with some pics ive been taking here and there

iam watching the boxing on itv and ive not watched any boxing on telly for ages but this on itv is a bit crap as at the end of each round theres a quick 1 comercial on whats the point show all the boxing then put a half hour comercial on then think it would be much better and it will be good to watch f1 racing on bbc as well next season

and while iam writing this post another round has finshed and that stupid halifax comercial has just come on fucking sodding things they are, that fucking arsey howard and the rest of his bunch need blasting into space aiming for the sun and if i dont hear another one of there songs ill not be sorry

ta ta for now iam goin to bed as iam all bunged up and me head feels like its going to explode

clutch

ive only had my new car for only a week and my clutch has gone noticed it didnt feel quite right when i brought the car but the chap at the garage who i brought it from mentioned drive it about and any problems just bring it back,

last night while driving home the clutch felt not right at all and i smelted something burning lucky realy as i'd just pulled up outside home and my dad confermed my suspisions that it was the clutch

so took it back to the garage this morning the garage said leave it with us and we'll phone you back when we have done, it and not only 30 mins ago i got a call saying my car is ready to be picked up,

so iam quite inpressed with the service that ive had from the garage and most likely to be using them for future mot's and other bits of work that i cant do myself and for even more bouns points ive had a few friends from my local pub recomend the garage as well

8 year old boy steals dumper truck

i was reading in the paper just now about a 8 year old kid stealing a dumper truck left outside a house which is having ongoing work done on it,

when the police finaly caught up with him they could not do anything to him as he was 2 years to young to be punished,

this next bit of the story made me laugh, Ribble Valley MP Nigel Evans said: “Eight-year-olds should be playing with Corgi cars, not stealing real cars.”

And Michelle Elliott of children’s charity Kidscape said: “He may have been copying a scene from a video game.”


The mp chap is kind of right on the mark? but the silly cow from the children's charity is living on another planet by saying a video game could be to blame

ive been playing computer games since i was a kid ive not pinched a car or even a dumper truck or have i killed other people,

i think the parent should have a right to give there kids a good hiding every now and again to show them right from wrong or even better bring back the berch or the whip that will give out kids of today something to think about hey

what do you think? stay safe as you could get run over by a 8 yearold kid ona rampage

1st big drive

ive had my new car since wednesday and so far iam quite inpressed, and untill yesterday ive not done any long journeys in a car which ive drove so i went to chelmsford yesterday to see some mates and had a nite out in london which ill write in another post, the drive went realy well a very nice smooth ride,

i should'nt realy be saying this but it had the power to race boy racers and quite happly do a 100mph quite easy, but as it was my 1at bigish drive since last august i just took it at a steady 70-75 mph while i was getting used to motorway driving again whichi must say i saw a couple of hairy moments when other drivers came a bit to close to me and made me a bit nervous but apart from that i was quite happy,

now i just need to valet the car and sort out a couple of small scratches on the paint work sort out a hands free phone kit which ive seen one but need to safe a bit of money again now, asi ve spent nearly 2000 quid this week onthe car ie insurance tax a new sound system i just need some better speakers as the factory fitted ones now sound a bit naff and also need to sort a roof rack and ill need to look into getting something that i can attach my bike to the car as well

probly this time next month all the little bits will be done also ive got to phone the insurance people up as they still havent settled the claim out for my accident last august whcih iam going to write a very shitty letter to and let them know what i think of them

iam of for a bit of shut eye and stay safe out there

driving

well ive only been driving my own car again for 2 days and all i can say at the moment is there are some fucking numptys out there, when your at a island and your turning left what do you do? use your left indicator

when your going to pull over to the side of the road to stop what do you do? use your indicator to tell other drivers what your doing rarther than just come to a full stop and i end up giving the other numpty driver the finger and a few chosen swear words

when your driving towards a zebra crossing and the lights are red what do you do? you fucking well stop and let people cross then you can carry on with your journey not just carry on driving through them and almost knocking some poor cunt over

and even the simpest of things when your changing lanes what do you do? look in your mirrors indicate then pull over to the chosen lane not just fucking pull over as and when you feel like it and nearly crashing into me or any other poor sod

i dont know drivers today just dont give a fuck and people wonder why there are so mant accidents on our roads today, and if the cops catch an unisured driver they should cut his balls off and 1 finger and 1 year in jail, if he is caught again chop 2 more fingers off and 1 toe and give the cunt 2 years in jail, iam sure this punishment would make people think not to drive with no liecence or insurance hey what do you think???


stay safe out there as theres some madduns about SORRY A LOT OF MADDUNS ABOUT

now a car owner once again

well after what has seemed like ages ive got a new car, but let me tell you it was a mine field looking for a new car i wanted another mondeo as my last one was great easy to work on and everything i wanted for a car, but with the buget i had all i could afford was upto a x reg and in the mondeo range the mileage was either realy high or the price was to high for the age of the car

so in the end me and my dad started to look at different cars and in the end ive landed myself a nice dark red renult laguna x reg 2 liter top of the range and with me driving my dads car since last august ive forgotten how much more power a 2 liter has from a 1.4 liter car, i took the car for a test drive yesterday morning i just thought wow was well happy with the car,

the car needed a couple of little things sorting out which along with a full sercice and mot it was all in the price of what they wanted for the car so i cant grumble which means at least a years trouble free motoring all ive realy got to do is give it a vallet and put my sound system in to the car, so iam going to pick the car up tomorrow morning as ive had a phone call from the garage 30 mins ago telling me the car was all ready to roll

the insurance is another 100 quid more than my mondeo but iam quite happy with that as it is a newer car and a few more things to play with in the new car so ill just see how it goes hope no cunt crashes into me hey

ill post a couple of pics later this week, have a goodun and stay safe out there

muppets arse cunts and twats

what is it with people these days are they just plan thick or just cant be arse to think about what they do, today i was cycling to work and through town i was walking with my bike pass boots now with the bridge works the pavement have been railed off so you have a smaller pavement,

heres me walking very slowly behind this woman infact she was starting to get on me nervous, then all of a sudden she came to a full stop got a fag out and lighting the thing,

i ends up bumping into her as i couldnt walk past her as other people were coming the other way she gave me a look and all i said was well you should of looked around you before you stoped in the middle of the pavement then the bloke behind me shouted silly cow that just made me laugh

while this was going on i still couldnt pass her as the pavement was so much samller and other people were still coming the other way she did move on much quicker now and she was still trying to light said fag but with not much luck


i thoguht when at the traffic lights and the red man was lit up you were suppose to wait till all traffic had stoped the red man turned to green then cross ? iam i right

well most numptys dont seem to do that these days, after the thing with the woman i came to the traffic lights oppisit burger king in town heres me seeing a bus come hurdling down the road and iam waiting for the lights to turn red and for the green man to come on then cross,

but people just walking across the road as if to say what the fuck by now the bus driver was beeping his horn and one bunch of people were just giving the driver the finger and other people were just giving the driver the dirty look

what is it these days dont people give a fuck about the rules they could just save your life but then again most people just seem muppets and dont give a toss

when iam on my bike and someone is crossing the road and its my right of way i just aim for said person i almost got one bugger the other night but he decied to run out of my way at the last minuet, i know iam going to get some cunt one day and when i do ill just say well they should of waited for the green man

have a goodun and stay safe

you cant say that but i already have

what a crappy weekend weather wise but had note planned as i was at work with me dad saturday then sunday i just watched a load of telly, i had a thursday and friday off work and friday i went into town for a couple of drinks with a couple of old drinking mates,

we had a few beers and by half 4 and i was a bit drunk and we was in burger king which i must say is a lot better than mc sodding donnalds, anyway was sitting at the table eating our food and 4 girls came in 3 of them were okay looking and the 4th one was ugly as fuck i mean she was a minger, with me being a bit drunk 1 i was braver than normal 2 i didnt realy give a damm but i couldnt stop glaring at this ugly girl and she came over to ask me what i was looking at i was a bit suprised as i dont normaly get that! a person coming over to me asking what iam looking at,

so with no thoguht at all i mentioned that i couldnt believe how ugly you are, her face just turned one of my mates pissed out laughing and spat his burger our as he was laughing so hard as what i just said, and my other mates just began to laugh, this girls started to say to me you cant say that and before i could answer one of my mates shouted to her he just has you silly moo just live with it

she started to go off on one by now and by now her friends joined her asking what the problem was i explaned and her friends didnt seem very happy with the explanation but they started to drag her away and my mates wasnt helping as they were still pissing themselfs with calling her a ugly

nothing else came of the burger king outing and quite lucky realy as it could of turned quite nasty, we just carryed on with our afternoons drinking session and we were still was laughing about the ugly girl thing yesterday eve at the local pub

ah well suppose i best get some work done, stay safe you lot and have a goddun

april fool

how the year has passed so quickly so far hey, and ive noticed the lighter nights already since we have put the clocks forward, as when iam going to lock the buildings up at work its nice to walk around with it still being light and ive notice my mood is a lot better hope to be off camping by the end of the month if weather permits

anyway this april fools thing ive never realy done anything on the day its self but once when i was at school there was this teacher who had a 3 wheeler car or most will say a plastic pig and me and one of my best mates at the time who isnt now after i broke his nose which could be another post decied to move her plasic pig

so we lifts the car up as it was quite light and moved it from the car park to behind the bike sheds, you got to bear in mind my school was a bit differnt from some as it was kind of a special needs school which was also boarding school as well, so we had loads of land and a big sodding field ,

so with deed done me and my mate went back to class after dinner break and carryed on with our lessons, come end of the day we were dead excited as we wanted to see our teachers face when she saw her car wasnt there, well the look on her face was bemusment at 1st then went to anger than what the fuck look

me and my mate saw a couple of more teachers come over to her and saw they were all talking to themselves and by this time me and my mate were in the mini bus waiting for the driver to take us home and were pissing ourselfs laughing, she did find her plasic pig after a hours walk around the school gournds and she only found out who had moved her beloved pig when she reitred about 18 years later

remember this was 1991 and i was 15 years old, me and my mate did move her pig a few more times before we both left in 1992 and yes we did get caught by one of the other teachers but he couldnt believe it and that it was us he laughed at himself for a whole week just suddenly busting into laughter when he saw the other teacher looking pissed off that she had to keep finding her beloved pig

our teacher was great he didnt tell anyone not till the said teacher was due to retire and they had a special asmebly for her that he brought up the subject of her pig being moved she did give me a telling off when i went to my old school last year but she saw the funny side of it

good weekend

i had a quiet weekend for a change friday nite after work i met skytower and little pete for a quick pint then went to skytowers place for the start of a drinking session, on the way to skytowers place we got 8 bottles of larger i'd brought a bottle of whisky which was very nice i must say,

as the night went on little pete went home and it was just me and skytower left and having quite a good nite, by 4am sat morning we had got through all the larger and the whole bottle of whisky i was a bit drunk but all in all okay i went to sleep as soon as my head hit the pillow as i was so tired, i work up sat morning with a bit of a tingly head but nothing to serious

i gets up to open the bedroom windows as it was so hot in the room and as soon as i did and the fresh air was coming through i all of a sudden my head started to spin felt rough as a dog and sweating like a cunt, and all i wanted to do was run to the bathroom and hug the loo

after a bit of loo hugging i went back to bed and slepted the hangover off and reworke up at nearly 4pm sat afternoon feeling quite good, and after a cuppa tea i was feeling good enough to get myself home which after a nice dinner i went to bed and slepted even more

sunday was a nice day so i was up at half 7 did a load of stuff sorted all my washing and ironing out, fixed my bike and made a modifcation to my rear bike rack which works much better now will post a pic of it soon, and went out for a beer sunday nite

so now iam ready for the working week and lets see what it brings good or bad iam ready

my dad

hello all hows blog land for you lot just thought i'd mention me dad what a great chap, he is nearly 60 brainy as fuck till it comes to programming the video machine can do all sorts of stuff you name it he can do it

one crimbo when i lived in chelmsford my cam belt snaped on my car, gave him a call he got me home, when we had a few quats to fix my car from other people he said bring me car home and he fixed it, was a lot of work involved, basicly a engin rebuild he did it crimbo week which was he worked outside in the freezing cold but he fixed my car and hardly cost fuck all

all in all a great chap we go out drinking quite a lot again now ive moved back home, we're more like mates rather than farther and son, he took me out for my 1st pint when i was 14 years old as he didnt want me to get pissed on cheap cider with me mates on a field instead he introduced me to great beers and whiskey and by the age of 16 i was a regular at one of my locals

one of the storys i do want to tell is one camping trip to dovedale was a easter weekend, him and his mates all a lot older then me did a yearly camp out always at easter and always according to my dad a piss up, one year he took me i was 14 i think but that didnt matter as i knew all his mates and they took me as a equal

gets to the camp site pitch the tents up and the friday have a few beers, next morning after brekky me dad wanted a walk up a hill i said fine, packed a rucksack with a tin of soup bread tea and a few other bits and bobs and including a primer stove,

starts walking up one of the hills and it was lovely nice sun and walking up the hill we didnt think half way up the hill the path would be frozen, but to our luck it was, now i says what do we do my dad says we cant realy go back down? so the only way was up

but i mentioned how as the path is frozen my dad being my dad mentioned climbing up the hill face, i looked at hime horrified as iam not much of a hights perosn let alone of climbing a rock face with no ropes or and safty equipment

anyway after a bit of talking me round we starts to climb the rock face by this tme we were 1000ft up this sodding big hill, clibming on the rock face iam shaking like a leave, all my dad says is dont look down and what did i do ? i looks down

i freeze me dad below me using his head to nuge me up inch by nich, we do get up the hill in the end dont know how the fuck we did but we did, when we got to the top the ground was thick of snow amost to your knee caps, was amazing realy my dad was ready for a drink by now so we got the primer stove out and did some soup and bread,

the soup and bread was well needed i can tell yeh, thick snow everywhere and all i could think of how the fuck was we going to get back down, and with my dad being my dad he already knew that the walk down the other side would be much easyer and it was a nice 40 min stroll and was back down the hill and i did enjoy it in the end after being terrified of the climb up and everything else

i could go on and tell you more storys like the time we cooked breakfast on pinedine sands in wales and me getting lost in skeggy and my parents calling the sea and air services out for me but that will be another post in the near future

iam ready for bed so stay safe as theres madduns about

banks

last week i went into natwest bank to see if i could change my bank account and other stuff from hsbc, and after a quick check they said all fine, the next bit was intresting

as the woman told me that my credit rating was good, so good that i was offered a 5000 quid limit on my credi card, 3000 quid overdraft on the current account plus if i wanted i could have a 25 thousand quid loan in my bank by tea time,

i was quite amazed but with me being me i said no thanks, just give me a small overdraft on my current account she kept asking me if i was sure and i said yep all the time, i can see how people get into trouble these days with banks chucking money like that at people,

as i myself have in the past got into tourble, but for the last couple of years been okay, i had a little bit of a balance to pay off my credit card but thats all taken care off now

just wonder what kind of a mortage they will offer me ill find out soon enough when i go in a couple of months time

yesterdays drinkies

well my plan of drinking halfs didnt quite work out, as my mate wouldnt let me have any halfs i didnt mind as such and to my suprise by half 4 we had drunk 8 pints and by 8pm i drank 8 pints 4 halfs and 4 double vodka's with various mixers one pub which we went to even sold cans of iron bru so i had double vodka and iron bru nice that was as well, i even had a double vodka and vimto in another and the girl behind the bar looked at me very stangely but when she had a taste she was hooked

to finish the night off went to the big wok for a all you can eat nosh up i was so hungry i had 4 plate fulls of food then 3 puds got home had a soak in the bath then bed woke up this morning at 7am feeling quite fine a little tired and i do love working afternoons as if i did woke up feeling shit i could of slept off the hangover

so all in all a good day out seemed to avoided the nutters saw no one being stabbed or shot roll on the next bank holiday

off out to the pub

well as its bank holiday monday the weather is crap sod all on telly iam off to the pub for a all dayer which ive not done for ages, meeting a couple of mates at the local then off to town meet some more mates then doing the tram line pub crawl should be intresting to see how many pubs we can do,

iam playing tactics iam going to be drinking halfs for most the day pasing myself as ive cut my drinking right down in the past few weeks i know if i start on pints and by half 4 ill be pissed as a newt, yes you can call me a light weiht but i want to last till at least 8pm 2nite

so iam off for a shower and ill be in the pub for 11:30am,

have a good day what ever your doing and stay safe as theres a lot of madduns out there

fucking bank holiday

yup its bank holiday time again the roads are chocker block with cars, people going out to shops and diy places cos they have sod all better to do pointless going more than a mile down the road as your deffo going to be in a traffic jam,

me onthe other hand is working at my proper job at the university this weekend and also with me working over the bank holiday i get a day off to take when i want it which is good, but on the way to work i had to pop into b & q as my dad wanted a couple of bits and bobs so i agrees to go in on my way to work

What a pain in the arse just getting your car parked in the carpark was a mission in its self you need eyes everywhere and in a way you need more then a 6th sence as people just seem to forget about normal driving rules when driving in a car park i was wanting to get out of the car park i was wanting to turn right and this chap had his left indicator on so i go and start to turn right but as iam doing so this chap who is supposingly turning left just carrys on dont even seems to see me its only that ive quickly put my gear into reverse and moving backwards very quickly and using my middle finger at him he suddenly realizes what he is doing

he said sorry and continued with my journey but all this dangerous driving who needs it and iam on about getting a new car is it worth it

its beena while

yes its been a while since ive last posted not realy been arsed to be honest or had much time, what have i been upto not much realy been on holiday which was just what i needed and just been busy working 7days a week for the last few weeks

so the f1 season has started yet again and it should be a good season very competitve as a lot of the teams have now made some changes on there cars so should be intresting to see how the teams like williams bmw and red bull and honda do this year we know who will be the front runners again hey mclaren and ferrari and iam already getting fed up with hearing about bluddy lewis hamilton, i know he's british and a good driver but when the comatators and so on talk about f1 all they seem to talk more about is lewis bluddy hamilton oh well probly something we'll have to get used to, just hope jenson button gets his act together and starts winning races

and another thing which is getting on my nervous is bluddy heather mills now shes got payed off hope the cow just goes into hiding, as ive never liked her she looks deranged or somthing cos she dont look normal hey

reading barnze's blog and he's menitioned about the mcCanns i think somthing big will come out very soon as the cops dont seem to know much, and the parents are in the wrong that they shouldnt have left the kid be herself and go out for a meal makes no difference the resturant was only a short distance she shouldnt been left on her own,

iam not sure if they had owt to do with the kids dissapearence or anything but something is fishy about the case as a whole

stay save you lot as its a mad world out there

smeg head

this is my fav word at the moment i called a few people today a smeghead even my boss but he just burst out laughhing and i found out he was a red dwarf fan, but hey ive had a right old smeg of a day thats why iam pissed right now and this post has taken me twice as long to write cos ive been making so many smeging spelling mistakes,

well i woke up in a right old mood this morning or shall i say yesterday morning wednesday moring, i overlayed big time i wasnt late for work as i work 2-10 but i had a few things to do but i just layed i was in my bed listening to the radio and though oh fuck i should of been up 3 hours ago as ive got loads of computer work to sort i got up felt smegging crap even a cuppa tea didnt wake me up

iam storming around the house i was hungry but didnt know what to have to eat by time i knew what i wanted i just had time for a omlet with blue stilton and onion and fryed spam, ill tell you about my spam advantures later made my packed lunch and went to work still in a shitty mood,

people kept asking me if i was okay as i dont normaly show my bad moods but today i just was a bad ass, ive had a bit to deal with today at work as they have been a couple of conferences to deal with and the people involved have been indian students, dont get me wrong they are normaly okay, but today they have been a pain in the smegging arse

when i asked them to leave a room so i can lock the building they wouldnt move so a couple of cross words and security to boot there smegging arsed out i locked up the builing, why oh why couldnt the just of moved when i i asked then there wouldnt of been any trouble but being indian students they can be smeg heads things were dealt with and even left work late but all sorted in the end

i think iam of to bed as iam drunk and tied so dont let the smeg heads get you down just twonk them

weekend

had a good weekend on thursday nite i went to my local pub and found out they were having a do, but the chap who normaly dose the djing has been barred and a couple of chaps were trying to workout how to use the dj decks as i knew a little about it i showed them what was what but they couldnt make any sence out of it so i was asked if i could dj sat night

well i didnt know what to say at 1st as iam normaly do the lights when ive worked in a nightclub with skytower and he showed me a little about djing but not enough for a whole night and by myself, well after a few more drinks i said yeh why not cant be that hard can it, so comes sat night the local was putting on a show so not only was i doing the music for the show i had to play normal music as well i did okay but i had 30 mins to work out which person was going to dance and sing to which song it all worked out and everything went okay,

i did stop sober till about midnight then i went for it as it was my birthday as well sunday, but i celebrated it on saturday, lets say by half 3 sunday morning i was more than happy but i woke up sunday morning with a terrible hangover and sat nite was a bit patchy to say the least,

i met up with a mate for sunday dinner well with my hangover that was a battle in its self when i was walking around i was fine but whenever i sat down i felt rough as hell, i hadrly eat any food but did manage some fudge cake and ice cream and i didnt feel better till half 9 last nite so i must of had a few sat night

arseholes and titwanks

this week has seen me in 2 difficult situations, 1st was on monday afternoon cycling to work i was going down carlton road heading to porchester rd traffic lights all of a sudden this car driver pulled out on me if it wasnt for my quick reaction i would of been over his bonet, he didnt say sorry or anything, i caught him up at the porchester rd traffic lights as they had turned to red, so heres me with my leg extented out and i kicked the cunts passenger side wing mirror off and shouted cunt,

he got out and shouted what the fuck was that for i said for pulling out on me and nearly killing me a few words was exchanged and he said he would come and fucking smack me, i said fine come and get me, by this time the lights had went to green and red again twice, and was on red again so i called him a cunt and raced off lucy for me there was a little twitchel just after the traffic lights which the car couldnt get down so i raced down that and it took me down bottom of carlton road near trent taxi firm, by this time, the driver has no idea where i was and i was happy that i pissed the driver off and made him have to pay out for a new wing mirror,


Tuesday night saw me in another difficult situation i was cycling home from work up carlton road, i was cycling past the smithys pub and just opisit there is a side road i was cycling past this side road all of a sudden this car pulls across the main road and into this side road, 1st he had no indicators on 2nd he missed judged the corner so bad he aproached the road on the wrong side of the road he almost hit me,

in my anger i souhted how about some indicators i saw his car come to a full stop he started shouting back after a few words he started to get out of his car along with 3 other big indian blokes i though oh fuck iam in trouble and just as they were coming towards me 4 cop cars came past lucky for my the 4th cop car stoped and asked what was happening i told the copper my side of the story and the indian guy told him his side of the story, the copper did a check onthe guy and found he had no insurance or licence either,

so now the driver is being processed by the cops and should be sorted out soon, realy if the indian driver had just carryed on driving he might have never had any trouble with me or the cops for the time being anyway, in this day and age you never know what trouble you can get into as some cunt is being stupid or just dont give a fuck, is it worth standing up for yourself at all as someone could just as easy hurt you,

yesterday i was on the bus and again kids were playing up but again do you tell them to behave or just let them carry on being arseholes as if you do say owt to said kids playing up you could find yourself in a difficult situation, today iam on my bike so far ive had no problems hope it stays that way

quite time

had myself a nice quiet weekend for once, did sod all on saturday hada bit of a sort out at home and binned loads of old paper work caught up on a few films and ive amost watched the 1st seaason of the xfiles now i have seen them before but its good to watch them again and all in order as i only watched them upto season 4 then bbc kepted messing about when it showed the series and by then you realy had to watch it to keep wiht the story and as the box sets are now quite cheap iamm buying them come on season 2, also ive been watching the new remake of battlestar gallactica which is very good i must say iam half way through season 2 on that and only been watching it for a month,

also watched ashes to ashes it was okay but think ill need to watch a few more episodes to deffo make my mind up if i like it or not, gene hunt and the rest of team were good but not sure about the woman alex she seems a bit enoying but she might get better as the series goes on

yesterday saw me go on a bit of a bike ride was only going to go to colwick park but found a couple of paths which i decied to explore, and saw myself cycling along a disused rail line for a while the ground was quite rough as well, I went through a few deep puddles and muddy bogs, and made it a change from riding on normal roads and it helped having a bike with front and back suspension as there was a lot of pot holes and bumps to get over,

best get some work done so be safe out there as theres madduns about

news

this morning i was watching the news and all it involved was either killings bombings or how crap the weather is, ah and not for getting our crap goverment, the news is boring iam fed up with hearing how crap mr borwn and his cranks are fucking up our country or who the latest victim has been bombed to bits,

i want to hear some other news which is intresting who gives a fuck about amy winehouse or brintney bluddy spears going nutts, i think chuck them both in the nut house for ever and chuck away the key how do normal people cope with stress or personal problems we dont make arses of ourself hey

and for fuck sakes i know its a little sad when one of our soldiers is killed but its there fucking job, if they didnt go to war who would protect us or other helpless people hey every time one of them dies or gets injured it seems like someone is trying to put the blame on someone else

anyway iam done moaning about the news for the time being iam going for a cuppa to calm down have a goodun and stay safe

cant be arsed

so called for a quiet weekend, friday night i got a call from my dad while coming home from work asking me if i wanted to help him at work on saturday and like always i said yep, it was a easy days work but working 13 days in a row i was ready for a lazy day but sunday i was meeting a couple of work mates from the uni for a walk

we did 8 miles walked from beeley and round chatworth house did the walk in 3 and a half hours which wasnt bad we also had a few breaks, i have took a couple of pic and will post them on here when i have a spare few mins, and now today iam totaly bolloxed think its been the late nights and getting up early which have all caught up with me so this saturday iam doing sod all sunday if the weather is nice be off walking again,

i was so tired this morning i didnt go to the gym or cycle to work as iam so tired but hopefuly go tomorrow, i have also found a liking to stilton and beetroot, so have made stilton and beetroot sandwiches today just had 1 and they do taste good as in the past ive never liked stilton or beetroot iam going to have a go at stilton on toast and see what thats like as my dad likes it

righty iam off stay safe and dont any of you get stabbed or shot

busses

since my car crash ive not had a car, iam not in any great rush to get 1 at the moment but will get a car end of march, anyway ive been using the bus a bit or the last month been using my bike a lot more but went to work on the bus today one thing that gets me is thses people who use there mobile phones to play music on,

there's signs on the bus saying no loud music but one on seems to take any notice i use my ipod when iam on the bus but sometimes the music from these mobiles is that loud that i cant even hear my music,

and you darnt ask them to turn the music down as you might get either a gob full or even stabbed, so what do you do? fuck if i know but its getting worse and its not going to get any better, dont get me wrong its not every time you get music playing on the busses but i have noticed its getting more often,

i think these mobile makers should only make the phones play music if you attach headphones on, should be easyly done with the technolgy these days surely

anyway best get some work done stay safe as there are madduns about

litter

was sitting in market square wasting 10 mins, and noticed these 2girls one had just dropped a plastic bottle and the bin was only a few yards away the other girl asked her if she was going to pick it up and she said no, then the sillyest stupidest thing happended next the 2 girls started to walk off and they passed the bin,

so what the point was dropping the bottle when they were walking past the bin anyway, think the girl was suffering from a form of stupidness

master chef

ive been watching masterchef goes large on bbc 2 and i do enjoy watching it, but i have wondered how some of the contestents get on as last week the cooking wasnt very good, think when i watched it wednesday in the 1st round 3 of the 6 cooks produced raw food i thoguht the people who come on to these kind of porgrams are kind of tested so how can they come on to master chef and cook raw food,

iam a good cook and always fanceyed running my own breakfast bar on a road side or somthing like that not only i could serve breakfast cobs i could do various pasta dishes and so on, i wouldnt mind going onto matser chef myself but only thing i would need more practice on is making sauces from scratch as thats my only down side, i can make basic sauces like mushroom and tomatoe and bbq sauces but thats about it,

one thing ive become good at doing since ive had a bread maker is making pizza, and i also enjoy making my own cobs and rolls as well much nicer not had much success in making bread but to be honest ive only used it for cobs and pizza at the moment, but the best thing about making my own pizza is the toppings the amount of wonderfull variations ive done is quite good and my favs are half and half toppings as if ive got a friend who dont like one of the toppings i can do him/her one half and put anyother kind of topping on the other half and they are so simple to do

maybe one day my cooking dream will come true one day

not much got done

the weekend was a bit of a washout hey, the walk in the derby dales was called of cos when i woke up it was lagging it down and i didnt fancey getting wet and also i had a bit of a hangover so i went back to sleep, but i did meet my mates who i was going on the walk with in town instead for something to eat i walked into town as i still felt a bit fussy from the night before and by time i was in town i felt okay and went to the flying dragon for a change from the big wok,

the flying dragon wasnt bad i didnt think the choice was as good as the big wok but the furnishings were better and had music playing in the back ground, the spare ribs were lovely was a bit dissapointed as there were no chicken balls which i love had a bit of seaweed and had 3 lots of this chocolate cake with various ice cream then a walk home so i didnt feel guilty of the 3 lots of chocolate cake,

also with it raining most of the weekend i managed to watch some of the remake of the battlestar galactica series as the mini series dvd came through the post which ment i could also watch the 1st season of the series and i must say it was very good, it kept me wanting more which i ended up watching 8 episodes in the end plus the mini series which was 2 hour long itself i think must of watched around 9 hours of telly yesterday all in all most ive watch all week i think,

so a nice end to the weekend, but be a different story this coming wekend as ill be working and again ive still not gained any weight which iam pleased about i made a target last week i wanted to cycle 50 miles and i beat that by 6 miles so iam happy but iam still setting the same target this week for 50 miles, a bit silly realy cos when i was 18 i used to cycle around 80ish miles a week and i dont think that was bad realy

stay safe out there as theres madduns abuot ta ta

thank goodness its friday

well i did have a bit planned as in outings as ive not realy been anywhere as such for a while and ready for a day out, the last one was in skegy in december and it was a bit windy but had a good laugh and a few beers, i was going to have a walk in the derby dales but with the weather looks like it will not happen,

but ive still got a couple of things i can do, might have a trip to newark and have a pub lunch or go and watch that will smith film iam legend which looks quiet good, or i might be a couch potaoe and watch a few films ive got stacked up and might even watch the new battlestar gallatic series, but i know one thing ill do sat is have a bike ride to southwell and cycle through a couple of villages, but all depends on the weather

this has been a bit of a strange week my sleeping pattern has been a bit fucked, as lately ive been sleeping quite sound, and ive had a return of strange dreams again hopefuly my sleeping pattern will return to normal soon, as the last 2 morning ive slept threough till 11am and normaly been up aroun half 8, and for the 4th week running ive not gained any weight but iam not losing any either but to say ive not been to the gym much these last 2 weeks iam quiet happy ive not gained any weight as ive been going to the pub a bit more than i do rather than my normaly 2 nights its been 4-5 nights a week ive not been drinking loads but ive got do cut that down,

ive cooked some nice meals this week, one of my best was the stirfry i did bluddy lovely, then wednesday i did chicken which was free range did a nice mushroom sauce with leeks and courgets and a mash potaoe top, and think ill meet a mate 2mora and eat out but not sure what to have tho might have a italian meal for a change,

anyway got to get some work done so stay safe as theres madduns about

yet another mastrerpiece

got the wok out today and produced this wonder it had peppers the leftover pork from yesterdays roast also it had egg noodles and bambooshoots and blackbean sauce all done in 10 mins not bad hey





beer

iam so looking forward to a pint tonight afterwork, dont know why iam so ready as ive not had a busy day as such so at 10pm will be supping a nice pint of bitter not sure where yet and i will have a few just hope it dont snow or hail like it did last nite as got totaly soaked, even the hailstones got that bad one got me in the eye and that stung

righty iam off to kick some students out of rooms so i can lock up, stay safe as theres maduns about

mc fucking donald's

this lunch time i got talked into going to mcdonald's wished i fucking hadnt, it was fucking horrible had a big mac and fries 1st question big mac my arse should be called a tiny mac the burger or what reselmbled a burger had no taste, and who ever made the fucker needs slapping with a fish or somthing cos the ingredents ie lettuice and onions needed putting back into the burger bun as it was a right old mess,

the fries when i got them they gave us a packet of salt, if you need any more salt on those fries you need your head checking out, they were to fucking salty as they were, the only best thing i could say about the meal was the drink of coke i had nice, people who eat mcdonalds on a regular basis must either have no taste or just like crap food cos thats all it is realy, for whati payed for 2 of those so called meals i know i could make a much nicer buger with fries with my cooking skills there is no contest realy

aso 10mins after esting the crap burger and fries i could feel myself wanting the loo, if the food repeats that quick there must be something wrong,

old times and piss ups

2007 what a year

i was going to write a review of 2007 month by month but to be honest i cant be arsed as to much went on, so iam going to write what happened in 2007 in one post, last nite i went to my local which was a good night had some drink and food and woke up this morning feeling quite fine, no hangover or anything which i was pleased about iam back to work 2mora it seems like ages since ive been at work as ive alsmot had 2 weeks off,

this crimbo went very smooth no problems or car needed to be fixed or anything i wasnt ill all over crimbo either so all good there, i was thinking in the pub last nite what a bitch 2007 has been so here what happend






Jan Feb and March



Saw my stress levels going sky high also begun the sleepness nights, we had beaten the sodding beg bugs which seemed to go on for ever, went on holiday but didnt help much to change how i felt about life and everyday things and also started to think about ending my relationship with my now ex girlfriend, and by the end of march it had happened, i was getting on realy well with my fittness as in going to the gym at least 4 times a week and cycling almost everywhere,



April May June

I was still suffering with stress and sleepness nights till end of may, i decied to move back to nottingham and i gave my notice in at my job at the hospital in chelmsford, by the end of may i had moved back upto nottingham and within a week of me moving back to nottingham i was sleeping okay for the 1st time in ages stress levels went back to normal and my blood presure was back to normal, i had a month off work to chill out and by june i was working at nottingham uni as a porter, which iam still doing now,



July August September



i did have a few camping trips planned but with the shit weather we had it put a dampner on that, not much realy happend in july as i was settling into my job at the uni and just plodding along, but i did manage to get all my little jobs on my car done including chaning the wheel bearing and sorting the rust out on my rear arches which i must say i did a very good job on,



In August i went to Cornwall for a camping trip with a mate, and on the way down i had a car crash on the m5 motorway, near cheltnham which saw the end of my lovely mondeo the damage was that bad the insurance company wrote the car off, i was gutted as i spent a lot of time getting the car just right as i mentioned earlyer in july i got the car just perfect, i think my dad was more upset about the car then i was in a way i was lucky that i changed my insurance to fully comp a month before as i would of been a bit buggered if i hadnt,



we still carryed on with the hoiliday but was in a lot of pain as we both hurt our ribs and could hardly move with the pain it took another 2 months for my ribs to properly heal, as the weather was so good we had most of our meals in the camp site cooked by ourselfs, couldnt realy beat it realy as we had a good sea view from our tent every morning had a full english breakfast looking at the sea, the campsite had a clubhouse which we used most nights and despite our hardest we just couldnt seem to get drunk we did find out from one of the secuity guys that the beer was very watered down, probly was a good thing realy that we didnt get drunk as we wouldnt of got up as early as we did have one layin tho as that moring we were waiting for the hire car to turn up,



nothing realy happened in september apart from dealing with the insurance guff from the car crash in august and even now it still hasnt come to a close realy ah and also september saw me writing a very snotty letter to british gas and virgin fucking media bunch of fuck cunt twonks





October November December


i was still dealing with my car insurance claim and still am i think iam going to write a realy shitty letter to my insurance company telling them what a bunch of shit cunts they are, anyway october till middle of november saw me going throught a bit of downer winter was upon us and just felt down no get up and go in me at all and iwas drinking way to much again hadnt done any exercise at all since march and all the weight i lost i put all back on, so the start of november i joined carlton furum gym which i was a little surprised when i had my fitness test i found i hadnt lost all my fittness even tho i put all my weight back on i still needed a bit of work on my cardio to get back to the times i was ie running and rowing and so on as i was in mach but by december i was almost there and i'd lost half a stone in about 6 weeks,

i also started to cycle again which i was enjoying and again suprised in how i coped with cycling up the hills in nottingham, as they are much higher and longer than in chelmsford to be honest there wasnt hardly any hills in chelmsford iam probly going to atempt a 10 mile cycle this weekend as ive not done one since march,

december saw me suffer with a cold which i got rid off quite quickly but then i had a bad knee which lasted a week then a bad hip so again i didnt get chance to go to the gym much but i did manage to keep my weight down, even tho i went out a bit to the pub and december saw me eat out quite a bit, but the trick was i didnt eat much else before or after so i manage my weight quite well, then christmas week i got another cold which turned into full blown flu that was horrible but by the 24th it had all gone just about,

crimbo went nice and smooth i broke up from work on the 21st and cameback today which for the 1st time in ages ive had a crimbo which i didnt have to worry about money or pleasing everybody else i just did what i wanted, i spent a few days in chelmsford seeing friends and having a relaxing beer or 2 and it also involved a good curry and me making a home made pizza which ive not done again since i lived in chelmsford

so all in all 2007 ended on a kinda a goodun ah almost for got to say 2007 nearly ended on a downer as my bike which i had since i was 14 got pinched at work during december but i got over that quickly enough

so i hope you lot had a okayish 2007 and 2008 is just as good or if you had a 2007 like mine hope its better

so my hopes and wishes for 2008? only one thing realy i want to write about is my fitness would like to lose a stone and a half before summer, i know i can do but in the past ive let it all go but this time round iam know iam going to do it as ive put to much work into my fitness so far to let it completly go and everything else lets just see what happens, as 2008 cant be any worse than 2007 lets hope anyway

new year

thank fuck that 2007 is over and 2008 is upon us hope this is a better calmer year, 2007 had lots of changes some for the better and some for the worse buy mainly worse iam writing a review of 2007 which will be good for me to look at and compair this year, and also i broke up from work on the 21st dec and through out dec ive not done any exercise or anything realy and ive only gain 2lbs while ive been off work so iam quite happy there so happy new year all and hope its a goodun
