Last night, I went with Claire and her parents to a pub in Keynsham for a meal. This was to celebrate both my birthday (belatedly) and her mum’s (ahead of next week). For those of you who don’t know the place, Keynsham is situated halfway between Bath and Bristol. It is not as classy as Bath and not as rough as Bristol. The posh Keynsham residents will boast to be closer to Bath, while the riff-raff will no doubt claim to be Bristolian. As somebody who lives in Bath, I can say, one hundred percent, that Keynsham as not linked to our city in anyway, and is a place in its own right. However, we do share the same useless council – Bath and North East Somerset.
The meal was nice. After eating a pie and drinking a pint of Thatchers AND white wine (that’s not a Bristolian cocktail, it was a pint of cider and a small glass of wine, which was free), I needed a piss. I made my way to the toilets. They were surprisingly clean. I was all ready to commend the cleaner on an excellent piece of urinal scrubbing, when I noticed something horrific in the cubical. A turd. Not just a turn in the toilet bowl which had not flushed properly, a turd on the floor! Disgusting. To make matters worse, it’s creator had not shat it onto the floor. To make things EVEN worse, he (or possibly she) had crapped it into toilet paper, wrapped it up like a burrito (which, ironically is what Claire had for her meal) and carefully placed it onto the tiled ground. Nice.

- A Great Advert For Piracy
So, as planned, Claire and I went to the cinema to watch The Lion King.
The experience was a great advert for movie piracy. Not because the film was poor - far from it (more on that later). The problem was our fellow cinema-goers.
The issue with the other Lion King fans, was that they had an...
- An Elderly Couple’s Shopping Trip
It was my wonderful wife's birthday last week. She was celebrating the big '30'. Claire was complaining of being old. Nothing has changed. It is hardly like she transformed from Miley Cyrus to Jackie Stallone, as the clock struck midnight, on the day of her birthday.
Anyway, given the fact I am 36, I hardly think...
- Salad Dodger
There is a reason that I try to avoid self-service salad bars - hygiene. Some may call this paranoid. What I witnessed yesterday, gives weight to my reasons to steer clear of these bacteria traps...
While visiting a local Harvester restaurant, I observed the comings and goings from the salad counter. It was naturally busy. A...
- My Bank Holiday Weekend
After a very busy week at work, I was hoping for a restful Bank Holiday weekend. What I got was far from relaxing. I was out of the house every one of the three days. I've returned to work for a break!
Saturday was the quietest day. I went to Twerton Park, home of Bath City,...
- A Weekend In London
I travelled far, far away from Bath at the weekend. We went all the way to a little village called London - you may have heard of it. Sorry I haven't blogged about it until now, I ended up going to jail and I had to miss three turns, as I didn't have a Get...
