Today Watkins and I went to Weston Super Mare. Here is a photo blog of our day out. As you can see, we were very busy. I am now extremely tired and as soon as I have finished this blog, will be going to bed – even though it is ridiculously early for a Saturday night.

Remember – you can click on the thumbnails for a full sized image.


Many a men have been lost here. We ignored the signs.


One of the main reasons to come to Weston


(Near) the end of the pier


This duck game caused me great frustration and cost me lots of money.
I didn’t win anything.


This game caused Watkins great frustration and cost him lots of money.
He also didn’t win anything.


A Homer Simpson rip-off, or a keyring of Kyle Gass from Tenacious D?


This pinball machine was so cool!


A worms eye view of the tide coming in.
If you really were a worm and could see this, you would be fucked…
unless you could swim.


A seagull. Nuff said.


Me flying a kite I bought. Was surprisingly entertaining.


These donkeys reminded me of Clerks 2.


Watkins and I found a stray buoy in the sea and bravely saved it.


We then played football with it.


This is me doing a spot of water sport.
Yes, it REALLY, REALLY is me – honest!

After a dull and humid afternoon, yesterday evening was very nice. Chris, Sam, and I went straight from work to the Dolphin pub to enjoy a couple of pints in the beer garden. We then walked along the riverside to another pub, The Boathouse, where we had a delicious meal and another drink or two.

We sat outside while we ate, and a number of dogs wanted to share our meals. You would have thought it would be annoying to have slobbering dogs jumping up at your table, trying to nick your dinner, but these dogs were so cute and friendly, you couldn’t help but pay them attention. They certainly had a taste for steak and sausages. Unfortunately for them, all they got was a few friendly strokes and not any of our meat.

After the meal, we walked back to my flat and watched Clerks 2. I have seen this film before, but it’s so good I didn’t mind watching it again and showing it to Chris and Sam who, up until yesterday were Clerks Virgins.

The film was just as funny the second time round, however the scene with the man and the donkey was rather disturbing. Mainly because our network administrator had pointed out the astounding resemblance he shares with the donkey’s “handler”. It was very, very scary.

An unexpected guest turned up in the garden this morning.

Isn’t she beautiful! Just sitting out in the morning sun, after a night out chasing cats, eating chickens, and whatever else that foxes do for fun. I was tempted to throw her some food, but I don’t think the ground floor flat would appreciate it. More foxy pictures if she comes back.

Today was a busy day at work. Some swine thought it would be a clever idea to plug an ADSL router into the network. It wasn’t a good idea. It fucked the system – badly. The offender was tracked down and shot like a dog.

The problems didn’t end there. 10 minutes before home time, a major system died. Worse still, this system is maintained by an external company. An external company run by donkeys. I finished work at 5pm, leaving a major system fucked. What can I say? It was out of my control.

It is now the evening and I am now relaxing – eating pizza and having a beer, sitting on the sofa, ready to watch The Champions League Final. Apparently this is a rather important match on the football calendar.

Last night I played Gears of War online for the first time since I got it for Christmas. Sam, who has been playing the game religiously since December, met me online to show me the rules in Co-operative mode, before blasting the shit out of me on the Deathmatch. I was humiliated, destroyed, violated and raped.

Still, I’m not one to give up. I will be practicing until I can enter the Gears of War Ring with dignity, and destroy Sam and all the other opponents. If not, I’ll just kick his ass on Dead or Alive 4… maybe. If I ever play him at Fifa 07 however, may God have mercy on his virtual soul.

  • 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.
