My Friday night was a little different this week. Instead of spending the evening with Simon and Watkins, watching Peep Show, playing Bomberman and eating Nandos, I went out with Chris and Sam from work.
After a couple of pints at The Sizzler pub, I was lead deep into uncharted areas of Bath where I have never been before – Odd Down.
Odd Down is within BA2, which meant I had to pass car fires, dead bodies, prostitutes, crack dealers and playground chavs. I eventually arrived at Chris’ house, luckily unscathed.
Chris showed off his impressive AV setup, including massive high definition television and surround sound system. Sam brought round his PlayStation 3 and a racing game. I experienced a case of “technology overload” which caused me to drool some high definition saliva (like Homer in that 3D Simpsons episode).
We then watched a BlueRay copy of Casino Royale. Even though the film wasn’t amazing, the picture and sound quality was – I could watch anything on that TV, however poor! What made things even better was the sofa with a mechanical footrest. I want to take up residence in his living room!
When I got home, I discovered my broadband was live. I was happy. I also discovered something else. A spider. I was scared. The spider is now dead, but having seen two beats in two days is very, very alarming. I may call my letting agency and ask if they can call out pest control.
Most of the stories I post on my blog are about me, which, unsurprisingly, is why the website is called Sean's Stories.
In a change to the norm, today I'll be telling a tale from my mum - mainly because it is as funny as it is horrific.
A few weeks ago, my mum woke up to...
By the time you read this, you will be able to once again drink in pubs, thanks to the government easing lockdown laws.
This is assuming that you live in England. If you are a citizen of Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland, be grateful for your tougher guidelines, fewer coronavirus deaths and free prescriptions.

With all these television shows and films from the past getting censored or banned, in light of recent events, I was amazed when my brain recalled a movie from my childhood... Short Circuit. Well, two movies, considering there was also a popular sequel, imaginatively named Short Circuit 2.
The lead role in both (that wasn't a...

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.
