Ok, so one of the reasons I’ve not been blogging, in the last week or so, was Blackpool. It was my 22nd birthday this weekend, and we left for Blackpool last Friday, and got home Sunday. It was a really good crack, spent WAY too much DRUNK way too much, but it was a really good weekend. The hotel we stayed in, was err… Ok I guess, except my room had some WEIRD shower/bath type thing. It looks like it was designed for disabled people, with it being a bath that had a shallow, and deep end?! (Note: This isn’t just for swimming pools, it seems) So yeah, having a wash was quite a laugh. Me and half of my friends were brave enough to hop onto Europe’s tallest rollercoaster, the Pepsi Max Big One. No prizes for the PR team who came up with that name, they were hardly pushing the boat out. Bit gutting to see the ride costing SEVEN QUID. I mean, I thought the average wage up in Blackpool was only a tenner?! But alas, it was a good ride actually, did enjoy it! Asides from the pleasure beach, the night-life was pretty good too. Obviously, being Blackpool it was full of Hen parties and Stag do’s, but yeah it was a really good couple of nights out – the drink wasn’t too badly priced either, which is unusual inside a club. Maybe, to them, it was expensive?! I am not a big fan of the trams, I have to say… To me they seem utterly pointless, especially when the road parrallels the track, with double decker buses beaming up and down it all day long. The trams took an age (ok, 15 mins, but hey…) to arrive, and when they did, well they hardly set the world on fire. Speaking of which, I bought a really great photo of us on the ‘Big One’, but I left that on the bloody tram too. How annoying? I think it was because we were in histerics, because my mate was sat next to a guy, who looked like ‘Doc’, from ‘Back to the future’. So yeah, my 22nd came and went, and 30 draws ever nearer…

My dad/brother bought me a DVB PVR (wow, two acronyms in a row, I feel your pain.) which I am totally loving. I am not much of a TV person, I have to say. I don’t have the time or in the inclination to revolve my life around TV schedules, and with this, I don’t at all. Absolutely love it, cheers guys!

Monday, I spent playing Football. What a story that is…

So my mate decided to enter us (a group of mates) into a charity football tournament. Unknown to me, it’d end up we’d have only myslef and one other player who was below 35, and there were FEW players of any real ability. Sure enough, as I was the fittest person on my team, I had to play centre midfield, too and run my BUTT off… We lost both games convincingly, not to my surprise and the day was well.. It could of been better. I said to my mate, I cannot believe i had to pay to play, and get hammered by people who actually are MY age and play together week in, week out. What a joke. The only upside really, is it was for charity, I suppose. I also did meet Matt’s girlfriend, Leslie. He did a GOOD job there, i’m impressed; really nice girl!

Since Monday, well… I’ve been feeling a bit under the weather really, been feeling tired, and I have to say a little achy. I guess I’ve lost my fitness somewhat, since being injured. So here I am, it’s now Friday, another weekend looms, and what’s on the cards? I have heaps of work, mostly web site orientated. I don’t even know where or which to start first yet. Hmm… I’m off to London with Alicia tomorrow, she’s dragging me around museums as her personal tour guide. Anyone who’s been to London, with me, will cringe at the thought! Nah, i’m not that bad… Am I?

With that said, I think I’m going to call my behamouth blogging session to an end, and play some GRAW on the Xbox for a bit. Now i’m back feeling fit, and older than ever, I hope to carry on blogging more consistently; sorry to the folks who actually missed me!!

Anyone reading this, not knowing what DVB and PVR stand for, well… You can either ask nicely, and i’ll tell you, or i’ll leave you the powers of Google.

I’ve uploaded a couple of pictures too, from Blackpool. I’m not actually in any, as ever, but yeah… I would post more, but some are a bit TOO dodgy!
