What a rubbish end to a day...
The IT nasties have just come and removed my old computer and given me an upgraded one with a new flat screen monitor (we are so behind the times here)...sounds good doesn't it? Except in theory I have to wait at least a fortnight to get my new monitor so have been given a teeny one in the meantime. Anyway, the meanest thing is they have taken away our personal profiles which means I might not be able to use messenger EVER AGAIN on my computer. Oh dear god. That and my mouse is crap which means i'll probably do toss on the quiz in the future!!
On the plus side i've got picture messages working on my phone finally even if it is after I got a whole month of free ones. Gutted.

My longer than usual weekend
ahh the joys of a 3 day weekend.
mine basically is the same as Jays, apart from sat night, I was going to go out for a couple but due to women taking ages to get ready which meant people would get into town at 10 I couldn't be arsed. So I stayed in and watched The Sopranos. I was really knackered - and I bust my ankle at footy - still wrecks.
Sunday I tidied up an my sis came over - we watched office space that was on a couple of nights before. Then Yvette came in - I cooked dinner, then we trotted over to the boys house for the final.
yesterday I had off. Yvette and I popped into Chelts for a bit as I needed to renew my passport. Then we went to brissol zoo. It was ace, had a good laugh.
We then popped into cribbs to kill sometime, I bought a couple of things for my holiday booked yesterday to Teneriffe - Aug 25th - woo hoo. And I also bought the Oakley watch I have wanted for ages - see my webcam pic/follow link. It is well cool and dead comfy.
I then came home and wathed the 1st in the 3rd series of Las Vagas - quailty program!

My Weekend
Started at 12:00 Thursday afternoon where me and Emma Drove to newcastle for her cousin's wedding. We drove the 6 hours between us up north and stayed in a hotel after going out for meal with her sisters.
Friday was wedding day and after having breakfast we headded off to the Grand Hotel Tynemouth which was very nice. Weddding went well no hiccups and it was good to see what worked and what diddnt work for our wedding come feb. After the meal they had a Kaylee band and a disco which involved me and Em's family polishing off the 10 bottles of wine left from the meal and much dancing. All got a bit messy really.
At 3am I decided to wake up and sit up bolt upright in bed only to pass back out and smash my head against the corner of the bedside cabinet. Needless to say it hurt, bled like a mofo and left me in a bit of a daze the next day. Have a nice half inch gash on my noggin. But I guess thats not much different to most weekends.
Saturday we spent the day recovering and spending time with Em's mum and dad. Seen a few sights of Tynemouth and had some lunch before we headded back to Lincoln (we couldnt be arsed to drive all the way home) and spent the night at her parents. Sunday we headded back to southampton and went to see pirates 2. Was funny as and even made em stay behind to watch the outtake after the credits.
Had a nice night in watching footie and getting ready for work sunday night before retireing to beddy byes.

Another Weekend goes by
Well what a lovely weekend...
Friday night we (Drew, Ben, JP, Tosh, Yvette, Louise and I) met up in the Frog for a couple of drinks before going to the cinema to watch Pirates of the Caribbean 2.
We got out of the cinema at half 12 a little tired but worth it as the film was ace.
On Saturday Drew. Tosh and I played in what turned out to be a 9 a-side footie tournament (Ben also made a cameo appearance in the last game), unfortunately we didn't play to our usual standards so didn't win (won 1 drew 2 and lost 1)but caught a bit of sun which was nice.
Ben, Drew, JP and I went out on Saturday night with my bro, his girlfriend and his girlfriends sister for a couple of cheekies in the Strand then on to Blush (which was very hot) for a few more and a bit of a boogie...Very enjoyable and a good time was had by all.
Yesterday was spent sleeping before getting some lunch and watching the tennis. We then had many visitors (Tosh, Yvette, Louise, JP, Emma and Annie) round to watch the World Cup Final and Zidane going mental.
Good game and i'm glad Italy won. Well done to my brother who won the Fantasy league by 11 points from myself, Panda has to suffer the humiliation of having been beaten by his missus (although they did finish level on points).
Cat came 5th closely followed by Amy, then came Sparks who may have been better off sticking with his original team.
Benji was next followed by Drew who managed to score good points in most rounds but never get himself off the bottom few.
Poor old Tosh came 10th as he was unable to change his team on Sat when he realised Lehman wasn't playing and bringing up the rear with his aptly named team was JP who was punished for picking too many Portuguese.
Look forward to the new Premiership season where we can all play in a league again.

Blog Update
I just remembered that everthing since the blog started have been emailed to a Gmail account, which currently total over 1700 emails consisting of posts and comments made by everyone. But since it is all text it only takes up 3mb.
Does anyone have any ideas on changes to make to our wonderful Blog, links you would like, such as to peoples MySpace or to Your own wedding page maybe (Sparks)
Speaking of Sparks where has he gone? and John for that matter both seem to have fallen silent. Brokeback moment times for the two of them?

Hey all
Hello everyone
Well it's about time i posted on here...not that i've got a lot of news! Thank f**k it's friday, what a cruddy week at work i've had! I'm attempting to take it easy today but my boss keeps loitering in the office and stopping my msn convo to Tosh! (Someone who is obviously equally busy at work since he's managed to sort out my myspace picture and made me a colour that my fake tan can't! Yay!)
So what have you all got planned for the weekend? I think mine will consist of wine and football and maybe a bit of shopping if I can be bothered. I better have a look at my fantasy footie teams and do some tweaking for these last games since i'm doing rubbish in both leagues now! Grrrrr.
What are your plans for the weekend then?

Dont let Ronaldo win
If you only do one thing today, do this.
There is a very real danger that Cristiano Ronaldo will be voted the fans'
best young player at the World Cup despite his pouting, diving, pretty boy antics designed mainly to get himself a lucrative transfer to Real Madrid and thus avoid the good kicking he deserves from Wayne Rooney at Manchester United training.
He is currently 1st in the FIFA voting just ahead of Luis Valencia of Ecuador. Please can everyone go to
here
and do the decent thing by voting for Valencia.
It doesn't matter who you support or if you haven't seen them play, just stop Ronaldo.
Takes 30 seconds...You know it makes sense!!!!

What I did on my summer holiday....
By Theo Walcott Esq
I went to a place called Germany with my Uncle Sven and some other grown up's. It is a country in Europe where a bad man called Adolf used to live with his nazties, he does not live there anymore, Uncle Owen does live there, and the grown up's say I cant talk about the bad man as it will make Uncle Owen cry if I do. In Germany there are lots of castles and some mountains. We are staying in a place called Baden Baden that's a silly name, Uncle Frank has the same name as his dad, that's silly too, his mum must get their underpants mixed up all the time.
On the aeroplane Uncle Sol sat next to me, he got me some toffee and wants to be my friend, he works at the place where I do my YTS, so does Uncle Freddy but him and Uncle Sol are not best friends anymore.
Uncle Owen met us at the airport, he talks foreign, Uncle Wayne, Uncle Steven and Uncle David also talk funny, my mum says Uncle David talks like Orville, he is a duck, Uncle Sol say's uncle David wears dresses and knickers, and asked me if I had ever worn them. Uncle Sol got me some pop.
In Germany the grown ups are going to play football, my grandad says we beat them in the olden days before my mum was born. That is a long time ago.
While the grown up's went to play football so I went shopping with Auntie Vicky and some other girls she bought me a big ice cream and got herself a little one but she said she was full before she had eaten any and threw it away. She bought lots of shoes and handbags and let me play with Brooklyn. She say's she used to be in a pop band and sang me one of her songs, I think she was telling fibs.
I told Uncle Sol about my day out with Vicky and he sulked, then he bought me an even bigger ice cream with lots of hundred's & thousands on it.
All the other grown up's have a girlfriend except Uncle Sol so he plays with me while they go out. Uncle Sven says I must keep Uncle Sol happy, that's why I got taken on holiday.
The grown up's went to play Football against somebody called Sweden, Uncle Sol was crying as Uncle Freddy played for them and would not talk to him. Uncle Sol bought me lots of toffee today and some crisps. Uncle Sven is from Sweden and I heard him on the phone to their boss last night. Uncle Michael hurt his knee and had to go home to his mum for a plaster. Uncle Peter is a giant, a proper giant like you see in books, he is rubbish at football though.
Uncle Wayne had a sore toe at the start of out holiday but it got better so they let him play football. Uncle Sol got me a present but I do not like it. He says all Germans wear leather underpants and I should while we are here, they are too tight for me.
All the grown up's started to call Uncle Wayne a potato head who stood on somebodys spuds. He got shouted at by the referee. They are all saying that we have to go home now. Uncle Sol was crying again and I had to sit on his knee to make him stop. He had his mobile phone in his pocket, I think.

My Weekend
Had a relatively chilled wekeend. Went out friday night with Em to see Boathouse which was ok. Then went off to Cardiff and down to the athletics stadium where me and Em watched April run the 4 X 100 relay for her school in the Welsh School champtionship. She did well although her team came last... but wasnt her fault, she was 3d in the relay team and managed to go from last to 2nd but her 4th teammate let them down. Watch that football game and Ronaldo needs to be fucking dragged through the streets by his ass hair. Nob.
Spent sat night in with folks making wedding plans then did shome shiopping sunday before returing back home. Pretty chilled and enjoyable weekend

Jeff Martinez
At E and Roos BBQ, one of my sisters pals was their with her husband Jeff (or Jim to Drew) nice couple, knew Sarah from when my sis was at uni and met Jeff a farir few times too, anyway i knew he wsa a singer/songwriter but I didnt know he has a CD out, Louise and I listened to it on the way to my Nanas - i loved it, really good! You can buy it on itunes - i have ripped it to my ipod so you can have a listen those who live near by, but you can listen to it here and you can actually get it on Itunes! (i have placed my order with Jeff to get a copy! :D
My weekend
Friday night I spent the evening with Yvette, had a lovely night.
Saturday went to a guy from works family and friend fun weekend - basically his family own a MASSIVE mansion and grounds and it is used as a school. Every year when school has finished all the family invite friends and other members of the family over (and the teachers come to) then you can do whatever - volleyball, football, cricket, croquet etc. People can stay for the whole weekend and thy have different entertainment on too. It is really cool.
we left just after the England game. I have to say England were unlucky- 10 men for a lot of the time and had lots of chances just didn't finish them. Becks should have come off long before that as lennon was ace. Down to penos and we all know what England's like at penos. Its all in their heads!
After the game we drove to Roo and E's for Roos birthday which was a quality night- BBQ. Lots of people were there - including most of the people on this blog.
Sunday I took my sister down to Newbury to see my Nana, I took them out for lunch then printed off some pics for my Nana on my wee digital camera printer. We chewed the fat for a while then came back to Chelts and watched the last 2 episodes of Lost MY GOD IT IS SHIT! I swear I was seeing things when watching that - just like the people on the island - in the background I was seeing this horse being flogged!
Then I watched Demolition man - minted! :)
