Owzat!

Blog colour & picture change, still Jaina Solo though ;-)

Went to cricket yesterday, was bloody great fun, sat in the pavillion at The Oval ( where the Ashes was won!!)

It was Surrey v Kent in the Twenty20 Cup

Surrey won by 107 runs :-) I missed 2 wickets cos I was getting beer!!





The gas tower that you see on tv!








Where The Ashes Were Won!










Man with pint of beer for a head ;-)





So the weather started being great again yesterday :-) so today I'm off to the seaside, will take a book and sit by the sea for a few hours, of course on the way down I will have to take the lid off the car otherwise its gonna be unbearable!
Might just have to belt out the new Rox mix as it sounds great on the car stereo!

This will be the last blog entry for the weekend as I will be busy bunny, gotta dash now cos the car needs a wipe down before I go anywhere, its amazing how much shit gets on it by it just sitting in the driveway!

60 Days til Star Wars Legacy Of The Force: Bloodlines

Scratching Away At The 40 Year Itch!

Time to get carried away with mindless optimism!

Got 3 days off work WOO HOO

Today I'm off out with my uncle cos we're going to the Oval to see Surrey play someone in the TwentyTwenty Cup (Cricket for anyone who doesn't know what goes on at the Oval) ;-)

Tomorrow was gonna do some gardening but now depending on the weather I might go to the seaside instead seeing as its on the way down to John's (well slight de-tour) and he doesn't finish work til 5pm.

Friday.....I think we will be gutting the rest of that Supra as it needs to be got rid of.

Saturday..... I hope I will be allowed to watch the footie ;-)

And so onto more mindless optimism....

Go here and listen to Justin Hawkins song called England!

Its classic, here's the lyrics and then you'll all be singing along ;-)

Lyric Of The Day:

England men, England women, England boys, England girls
Tears of pride will stain your faces when we conquer the world
England is the motherland of football
And the World Cup will once again be hers

Football will be our only weapon
Skill and power will be our only shield
We fought them on the beaches
Now we'll play them on the field
And once again the world will surely yield

England, England, England, England, England, England, England England, England, England, England, England, England, England

From the Tyne to the White Cliffs and the Cornish Sea
Every rolling moor and every shining city
Every town and village shouting ever so proudly
For an English victory
Our boys have got balls, all we need's a pitch
Scratching away at the 40 year itch
Pull on the England shirt, be proud of every stitch
'Cos this year's pickings will be rich

England, England, England, England, England, England, England England, England, England, England, England, England, England

England, England, England, England

Engerland

England, England, England, England, England, England, England England, England, England, England, England, England, England England


[British Whale aka Justin Hawkins - England]

61 Days til Star Wars Legacy Of The Force: Bloodlines

Bend It Like Beckham!

1-0 to the Eng - er - land!

I'm 2nd in the works world cup fanatsy league!

So anyway I was banished to the stands (ie: went upstairs to watch it) during the match cos I happened to stand up infront of the telly when Frank Lampard missed again.

Who said we don't need David Beckham! atleast if the football is shit he's nice to look at.






























64 Days til Star Wars Legacy Of The Force: Bloodlines

I'm Still Standing...

You know you've had too much beer when....

Fucking hell my head hurts! (again)

Elton John was fantastic!






Bloody marvelous!










Rocket Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!







I'm still standing.....





Lyric Of The Day:

You could never know what it's like
Your blood like winter freezes just like ice
And there's a cold lonely light that shines from you
You'll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use

And did you think this fool could never win
Well look at me, I'm coming back again
I got a taste of love in a simple way
And if you need to know while I'm still standing you just fade away

Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
I'm still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind

I'm still standing yeah yeah yeah
I'm still standing yeah yeah yeah

Once I never could hope to win
You starting down the road leaving me again
The threats you made were meant to cut me down
And if our love was just a circus you'd be a clown by now

[Elton John - I'm Still Standing]

Actualy Elton didn't write the lyrics, Bernie Taupin did.

I think its 65 days til the new Star Wars book but to be honest right now I just wanan curl up and sleep ;-)

Put This Date In Your Diary!

Monday 28th August!

66 Days til Star Wars, Legacy Of The Force: Bloodlines!!

LOL

Wonder if I can get it on eBay early like I did with the last one, I added that seller to my list of fav sellers just so I can ask him to get it for me ;-)


"They keep trying to blow me up!"

Han Shot First

"And Han......is he?"
"He's fine"
"Han shot first"

So I finished the latest Star Wars book and now I gotta wait til sometime in August for the next installment!

Lyric of the day:

Love is like Bomb
Baby come and get it on
Living like a lover
With a radar phone
Looking like a tramp
Like a video vamp
Demolition women
Can I be your man

[Def Leppard - Pour Some Sugar On Me]

67 Days til Star Wars Legacy Of The Force: Bloodlines

Eat My Goal

69 Days til Star Wars Legacy Of The Force: Bloodlines!

Yes thats right.......another countdown!

I haven't quite finished Betrayal yet as theres been way to much footie on the telly.

Sweden v England tonight, would be nice to see England win but a draw wouldn't be terrible as I wanna see Sweden thru......but I don't want them to top the group cos Englands next game would then be on Saturday and we're off to see Elton John!

So........ ROOOOOOOOOONEY!

Talking of Sweden........ got the new Rox Medley, its fucking great!
Have yet to get Marie's new album though :-( bit of a cash flow situation, well......I don't wanna use my credit card as I've just had to use it for a new pair of Oakleys my other pair went to the great sunglasses shop in the sky.

Lyric of the day:

Me and me mum and me dad and me gran
We're off to Waterloo
Me and me mum and me dad and me gran
And a bucket of vindaloo

BUCKET!


[Fat Les - Vindaloo]

I Feel Sick!

I hate getting carried away and being so patriotic with this football malarky! :-(

OK so England won, but for god sake it was awful!! Peter Crouch only realized he could jump in the 82nd minute, he's 6ft 7" for god sake JUMP YOU BASTARD!!!!
Frank Lampard.....who is he??? I don't remember him turning up for this world cup, if it wasn't for John Terry (who I don't like when he plays for Chelski) we most likely would've lost that poxy game.

The poxy game that I raced home from work for, bloody chain came off my bike on the way, its made me ill watching that for 82mins!!!

Its minus points for my fantasy league team, I changed my mind about who to pick and should've stuck with the original choice!
Thats just been justified by Gerrard scoring for England and Ljunberg scoring for Sweden!

I've pretty much had it with fucking football, probably need a weekends break from it, and will probably get it cos John hates footie!


Depressed and England won, what a life!

That was Klose!

Ha ha ha!

So I've got the hang of this 3 transfers a day business in our works fantasy league.

Currently lying 2nd ..... the prize?? ..... well ........ bragging rights!!!

Bloody Klose coudn't score for Germany though! I transferred him in last night just incase there was a goal avalanche by the Germans but they only managed to score 1!!

Watch this space!!! I might have to bring the big guns out tomorrow at the last minute to stop the prying eyes from looking at my team selection before the kick off's tomorrow ;-)

Tomorrows games:

Ecuador v Costa Rica
ENGLAND v Trinidad & Tobago
Sweden v Paraguay

Sweden's goalie best not let any in seeing as I've now picked the correct goalie and not the one that wasn't playing!

I wasn't gonna put any English players in my team for fear of jinxing them but this is desperate measures now....this is bragging rights! so I need all the help I can get ;-)
And as for the other players ....... not telling ;-) watch this space........ I'll give u a clue...... I'm playing Ecuador by Sash right now on WinAmp ;-)

Top Of The League!

Woo Hoo TOP OF THE LEAGUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <----- LOOKIE SEEEEEE

Top of the league in works fantasy world cup!!!!

Croatia only just lost to Brazil, good game LOL better than that France v Swiss game, what a load of merde that was!

So now I've got the hang of the fact that you can transfer 3 players a day on this thing in the group stages I'm flying, would've been flying even more if I had read it all from the start LOL
Would've also have helped if I'dve picked the Swedish goalie that was actualy playing and not the one that wasn't ;-) and if Freddie and Zlatan had scored me some goals! well I transferred them out for now so ;-P

All They Can Do Is Kick You, So If They Do.....Kick Them Back

The crappest game of the World Cup so far...

France v Switzerland

Even bigger load of crap that the 2nd half of England v Paragauy! atleast the 1st half was entertaining in that game.

This has been shite from start to finish!

So Brazil v Croatia later

Come on Croatia ;-)

Fusball? ;-)

Saturday....

Went to John's....Roof off my car all the way!!!!!

The Beast is back on the road!!!

Watched footie, England won, Sweden drew *chuckle* ;-)

Drank some wine

Sunday....

Changed the oil in my car..... well I helped, changed the oil in John's car.....again....I helped ;-)

Drove home with roof off the car again ;-)

Monday......work at 7am...

Beer at lunch time...

Played hockey this evening, won 5-1 and I scored 4, legs don't feel too bad although to be honest there wasn't much running happening in 25 degree heat!
It seems to have cooled down now, THANK GOD ! I might get some sleep tonight.

And so.....to bed...

Got home from hockey this evening to find 40 bottles of Carlsberg Export and 40 cans of Old English Cider in the kitchen...... well thats the next England game sorted!!

ROOOOOOOOOOONEY! ;-)

My Garden Shed....Is Bigger Than This.... !

So....

The world cup has started!!

To be honest I spent most of the day pissed cos my mate Mr Pete *waves @ Mr Pete!!* was retiring!

Here's a little ditty for Pete!!! (Pete you don't have to read, this is what I wrote in ure card LOL)

Mr Pete you are great
You are the bestest mate

Sometimes when you have to think
It's best just to "Have another bloody drink"

So now that you have served your time
Let's go grab some Italian wine


;-)

So....yea.....went to the pub after work and got smahsed and then went out and brought 2 very big England flags from Tesco ;-)

6 Bottles Of Carlsberg Export = £6
Bus fare home from town = £1.30
2 Very big England Flags = £1.97
1 Packet Of Strawberries ( cos thats what mum wanted 4 taking me to Tesco) = £1.67

Ironing (cos it was creased) and then hanging the very big England flag out of the window at 11pm! = PRICELESS

;-)

Gave the other flag to my bro, no idea what he's gonna do with it LOL


This time next week I shall probably be saying........ useless bunch of tossres ;-)

COME ON ENGLAND! ;-)

Rooooooooooney!!!!!

Went out for a drive round town with a mate I used to work with at Tesco's and we ended up at another Tesco's mates house LOL bitching about Tesco cos they both hate it!
I got out while the going was good and I'd rather go on the dole than work in retail ever again!
Seriously.......it's that bad!!!!

So anyway got home and a had a few beers, last count there was 16 in there but not sure on that cos I cudn't be arsed to turn the lite on so i've no idea cos it was dark!


ROOOOOOOONEY!

He's on the plane to Germany! Infact he should already be there!

Now if only we could just get past the group stages! LOL

I'm trying to stop myself getting carried away with footie fever but I would so love to see England win a world cup in my lifetime!!

We've gotta get John's car back on the road this weekend so chances of me seeing the game on Saturday have been greatly reduced :-(

I'm hoping I'm allowed a 90min tea break ;-) if I can't watch the game I will have the radio on cos I can't stand the tension!

My little bro is back from Alcatraz tomorrow ;-) I hope he can find his big England flag out, cos I've no idea where mine is, last time I looked it was all tucked up in the cupboard but it ain't there now :-(

Alcatraz Part 2

As promised yesterday, pix of Alcatraz (when blogger lets me post them!)





























Off out soon, taking an old work friend out in my car for a little drive about town, or the counrty, no idea where we'll end up to be honest!
Roof is coming off shortly so the car might cool down a just a bit before I get there, otherwise we'll be stuck to the leather seats ;-)

Watch this space, there might be a beer bottle update later!

Alcatraz!

My little bro is in the big USA at the mo, comes home Thursday so I'd better tidy up cos me and me mum have been women behaving badly ;-)

Was talking to him on MSN and he sent me a few pix of San Francisco and Alcatraz, I so wanna go there but maybe they won't let me back out again! ;-)








The crookedest street in the world and the daft buggers are driving down it!









The street in that advert where all the coloured bouncy balls go rolling down.....anyone know what the advert is for?







Golden Gate Bridge









Will on the Golden Gate, yes Mr Pete you can walk over it, and cycle too apparently!





I'd post more pictures up but blogger is being an arse AGAIN! tonight so they will have to wait til tomorrow.

Poison

18 green bottles sitting in the fridge, green bottles sitting in the fridge

Then today I went down to John's to help him with his car :-)

Look..... 3 pedals where there once was only 2! ;-)






Lyric Of The Day:

We all came out to Montreux
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
To make records with a mobile
We didn't have much time
Frank Zappa and the Mothers
Were at the best place around
But some stupid with a flare gun
Burned the place to the ground
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

They burned down the gambling house
It died with an awful sound
Funky Claude was running in and out
Pulling kids out the ground
When it all was over
We had to find another place
But Swiss time was running out
It seemed that we would lose the race
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

We ended up at the Grand Hotel
It was empty cold and bare
But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside
Making our music there
With a few red lights and a few old beds
We made a place to sweat
No matter what we get out of this
I know we'll never forget
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

[Deep Purple - Smoke On The Water]

What a weekend! and no time to read my book!!!! well appart from Friday evening when I spent an hour engrossed in Galatic Alliance/Corellian politics!

24 green bottles sitting in the fridge      (I was out for the weekend otherwise it would've been more!!)
And if one green bottle gets accidently drunk... 

;-)

Blogger This For A Game Of Soilders

Book has kicked off! I can see where the plot is going but I'm waiting for another twisty turny bit!

Bloody marvelous!

29 green bottles sitting in the fridge
And if one green bottle gets accidently drunk
There'll be 28 green bottles sitting in the fridge

Monsters Of Rock tomorrow!

Alice Cooper! Thunder! Deep Purple! and a decent weather forecast! bring on the beer!

Lyric of the day:

This is a public service anouncement, this is only a test
Emergency evacuation protest
May Impair your ability to operate machinery
Can't quite tell just what it means to me
Keep out of reach of children, don't you talk to strangers
Get your philosophy from a bumper sticker

Warning. Live without warning
Say warning. Live without warning
Without. Alright.

Better homes and safety-sealed communities
Did you remember to pay the utility?
Caution: Police line, you better not cross.
Is it the cop, or am I the one thats really dangerous?
Sanitation, expiration date, question everything.
Or shut up and be a victim of authority

Warning. Live without warning
Say warning. Live without warning
Say warning. Live without warning
Say warning. Live without warning
Without. Alright.

[Green Day - Warning]

2 England flags have appeared on my mum's car now! 1 looked well...... sad ;-) 2 looks really sad LOL although I have to say I do like to see them around, nothing like a football tournament to encourage a bit of national pride whis is usualy subdued for fear of being called a racist! (which I once was asked if I was because I happen to support any national sporting team with enthusiasm!)

In Sweden alot of houses have flag poles outside and fly their national flag, you should be allowed to do the same here but no.......you have to get planning permission to errect a fucking flag pole and you may be asked to take your flag down as it might upset other nationalities! if you don't like it, sod off back home or put up with it!

Anyway..... I have a Plan B in the world cup which of course is Sweden, I've not formulated a Plan C yet, will cross that bridge when I come to it which could be after about 3 games! ;-)

And so back to my book, but not before I've toasted myself a bagel with philly cheese on and got another beer!

BTW if ure reading this......go here!

Hell Hath No Fury Like A Woman Scorned

Just got back from seeing XMen 3 twas ok but it had something lacking which I can't quite put my finger on.

Nevermind cos Hugh Jackman! Helloooooooooooooo ! he was worth the £6.50 ;-)

Did see the trailer for Pirates Of The Caribean II, looks good LOL Johnny Depp as funny as ever >;-)

So anyway.....book is getting better and better!

One minute I think I know where the plot is going the next minute its changed direction and all hell has broke loose and I have to go back and re-read bits just to make sure I've understood it.

Jaina, Zekk and friends have been ambushed on Corellia, Jacen's in a bit of a situation on Centre Point Station......shit it's all happening here!
