After what seemed like a ridiculously long week at work, I welcomed the arrival of the weekend. I spent Friday night watching Leeds play Hereford United in the FA Cup, while dining upon something I don’t normally eat – a Chinese takeaway. The meal was almost as bad as the match, which finished 0-0; Hereford being by far the better side and forcing a replay – a fixture Leeds could do without.

Bath City had a free weekend, so I was a little stuck for stuff to do on Saturday. I decided to go to Twerton Park and watch Team Bath play some little northern team called Chasetown. The match was enjoyable, mainly because the students of Team Bath lost. What a shame. A glory-seeking student collared me at the game, and thinking I was a local, started slagging off the performance. I may be a local, but certainly didn’t want the tax-funded morons to win.

Saturday night I paid Simon a visit. He has recently moved into a new house, and I invited myself round to check it out. Simon lives with his parents, and it would appear they have stuck him right at the top of the house in a loft bedroom. You need to take what seems like never-ending spiral staircase to reach his lair. I was also a tad disturbed to find out his rather petite sister has been given a bedroom which is effectively a tiny cupboard under the stairs.

I was most pleased to learn our Sheppy’s cider had arrived, so on route to the Dolphin pub, we lugged the mini-barrels to my flat. I know I will enjoy these immensely at a later date. I know cider orders and trips to the local pub may make me sound like a pisshead. I can confirm to those who may be concerned that this is not the case, and this blog just makes out I spend a lot of time at The Dolpin (mainly because it’s a blog-worthy topic). Alcohol is bad mmmkay. Beer kills braincells or something something…

  • About Me

    So you stumbled across my blog. No doubt after searching for something bizarre on Google. Before you hit that 'Back Button', why not stay and have a read for a few minutes?

    If you are after a website which gives advice on how to hack an iPhone X, download the latest Steven Seagal movie, or view nudy ladies, you've come to the wrong place and may now press 'Back'.

    However, if you would like a lifestyle blog, written by a 30-something chap, living in Bath (England), feast your eyes on this.

    You won't discover how to copy PlayStation 4 games. What you will find is a blog, covering life in the West Country, the highs and lows of supporting two unsuccessful football teams, while sharing a house with a wife and rabbit.

    All written by a man, somewhere on the sanity-scale between normal and eccentric.
