Sunday 8th Jan


A lethargic start to the day with brunch of bananas on toast sprinkled with sugar, of course, and a cuppa.
Apologies for the pic rotation, this blogsite won't allow me to change it grrrr

Was unsure of plans today but not heading over to Walker as my mate's decided to go furniture shopping! Been to Argos in town though as I always seem to have the urge/need to spend vouchers! Not paying their prices for video games... Nice to get out of the house though.

For tea, bacon sanger washed down with Douwe Egberts coffee mmm.

Bit of 'Band of Brothers' on Bluray then early night, school night and all.

Food today; Banana. Bacon.
Gripe of the day; Screaming kids on busses with parents that just let them scream... idiots
Game of today; Skyrim

Saturday 7th Jan



Late night on Full House Poker on Xbox Live (must remember on to enter one of the community tournaments!) so a gentle start to the day is in order!

Mixed grill was yummy apart from that Bacon Grill stuff which just tastes of greasy ham. I'm lovin' the Schwartz Spice Rack I got from my Mam & Dad for Xmas!

Still gutted I'm allergic to eggs though :o(

Tidying my bedroom after the renovating I discovered a box of old flyers and tickets from my hedonistic clubbing days of the early thru to late 90s - nostalgia. Hopefully get a pic up of my fave.

John popped over at lunchtime for a couple of beers and a catchup because, he said 'I've nothing better to do' - nice to know I come in handy sometimes! Must admit I did chuckle at John for forgetting what he was talking about while delivering a story on how he remembers stuff. Genius

New Youtube App on Xbox is quality as it means I can play my music through my home theatre system which is handy when I have company - Youtube on, beers open, kick back and relax. Queue Chase & Status in deafening 5.1 - mint! *sorry neighbours*

Watched Jimmy Carr's 'Being Funny' and although a little near the knuckle, the man's a comedic genius - he was washed down with further beers.

Rounded the night off with Modern Warfare 3 on Xbox till 4am, still loving the Riot Shield class.

Food today; Mixed grill.
Gripe of the day; Ran out of beer

Friday 6th Jan


Nice easy(ish) day at work today as it's Friday!
I love my weekends, not because I don't like my job, I do, I just love being able to do whatever I want to do. But that's for tomorrow...

Found this awesome Pingu version of John Carpenter's The Thing

Mam's bought me some toilet roll, not sure if it's the right colour for my bathroom though - howay Mam, sort it out! haha

Created the location and became mayor of Skyrim on Foursquare, sad I know but I'm a bit simple like that sometimes! hahaha

Going to end the night with a little online poker on Full House Poker, on Xbox Live - great fun and I can play it lying on the sofa!

Nytol

Food today; Toast n Lemon Curd. Ham sarnie. Gammon steak, pineapple and chips
Gripe of the day; Can't have eggs, still allergic
Game of today; Full House Poker

Thursday 5th Jan


I'm back at work today, feeling not 100% but enough to be able to work and not have to spend most of the day worrying if I'm going to have an accident at my desk!

Still dare not eat anything tho just to be sure - damn I'm hungry.

On a lighter note I'm currently beating Jamie from work on Words With Friends, someone who normally kicks my arse! Check out my Twitter feed on the right because when I beat him, I'll make sure the world (my followers at least) gets to know!

Watched The Fighter today, starring Christian Bale & Mark Wahlberg - awesome film. Christian Bale acted everyone else in the film, off the screen!

Friday tomorrow, yay! The start of the weekend I just hope I'm well enough to have a little drinky!

Todays Food; Nothing
Todays Gripe; Busy at work, grrr

Tuesday 3rd Jan


Awesome start back to work... was fine over Xmas & New Year then when I'm due back to work, the lurgy. The dreaded, buggering, lurgy. Attempted work but my arse spent more time on the throne than it did on my seat which to be fair is where it's paid to be sat.

Got sent home after an hour, the 'rents were away at my Grandad's so the lift was out of order, had to brave the bus for a second time. Made it home with clean pants (that'd be me Mam happy!)

On the plus side I get to look at the Xmas present I got from our kid, my framed Banksy-esq Monkey-Banana-Gun pic, awesome!

Would've put the Xbox on but even just thinking about it was making me feel dizzy, meh.

Not much to report on, you've read the highlights.

Food today; Nada
Gripe of the day; Me bad guts
Game of the day; Let's see how long I can last before I need to go again...

Monday 2nd Jan


zzzzzzzz

Feel like death, not from alcohol though. Oh no, this ain't no hangover

What's wrong with me?

Shivers, shakes and can't keep anything down (talking food & drink people...)

Trying to cheer myself up by thinking about how fantastic a NYE I've had but it's not working, grrr.

Been in bed for what seems like 2 days and I can't sleep, eat or drink. Brill

Sunday 1st Jan 2012!



Happy New Year, happy new blog.

My resolution this year? To keep a blog or an online diary. I'm gonna have a stab. The format may change and so may the content. ~I may even listen to the comments from other people, if I get any.

After catching the blog-bug from my brother Steve, I've always wanted to do one. I think it gives an interesting insight into someone's world.

I'm not going to include stuff in this post from Xmas as that's just so last year...

I will however say I had a cracking night at The Cosmic Ballroom last night, it's all on my Facebook profile so I'll not post owt on here but thanks to all involved.



Here's to a corking 2012!
