As of today, I have been a vegetarian for an entire year.

For me, it’s now a case of ‘hug a cow’, not ‘use one for chow’.

This pepperoni pizza was the last meat product to pass my lips. I have not eaten flesh since that takeaway… although I have to admit to still enjoying my vice – Fruit Pastilles and Wagon Wheels – both of which contain gelatin. I have also been known to consume Refresher sweets, which are apparently coloured with beetle blood…

I’m such a carnivore!

If the image caused you to spoil yourself, you were warned!

If you wish to blame someone for your dirty undies, my mum will take responsibility – she was the one who originally sent me this awful photo – without warning!

On Saturday, Bath City played Slough Town in the league. City lost to two late goals.

The purpose of this post is not to write a poor match report, for a game I didn’t even attend.

There is a far greater motive behind today’s blog. It is to present Slough Town Football Club with an award.

Introducing The Roman Chalice.

The Roman Chalice. Named in honour of Bath City Football Club and not our pet bunny, Roman (who, incidentally, was named after the football team).

Having beaten The Romans at the weekend, Slough are now the (presumably) proud holders of this prestige award, which historians believe dates back all the way to the year 2019. 26th August, to be precise.

There is a catch. To retain The Roman Chalice, Slough must remain unbeaten for the rest of the season. Should they lose, Slough must relinquish the Chalice, handing it to their victors.

Any new holder will have to follow the same rules as their predecessor, meaning that if they get beat, the Chalice moves on.

Come the end of the season, whatever team is left with The Roman Chalice is the winner. Their prize – respect from me. Pretty crap. They don’t even get to keep The Chalice – the main reason for this, is because it doesn’t physically exist!

The Roman Chalice could be moving on sooner than everyone thinks! Slough Town travel to Dulwich Hamlet today. Should Slough lose, The Chalice will be heading to South London. What a time to be alive!

Can you identify what animal is enjoying a relaxing stroke in the video below?

Social media is divided as to whether it is a crown or a rabbit.

When I first watched the clip, I thought it was a no-brainer. It’s a crow. I’ve never seen a crow up close, but I’ve held and stroked plenty of bunnies in my lifetime and they certainly don’t look like that!

Being so adamant about the whole crow/rabbit thing, I was a little worried if the creature transpired to be a bunny. Not because I have a problem with being wrong, but because of the awful circumstances, which would have led to a rabbit resembling a large black-feathered bird. Probably plenty of inbreeding, while living on the site of the Chernobyl disaster.

It just goes to show that Roman receives such levels of love and attention that I can easily pick out what is not a rabbit in one of those stupid internet trends.*

an internet trend so stupid that I spent part of my Saturday afternoon blogging about it…

    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.
