Xmas and New Years Post

Hello folks, yes I survived th festive period but honestly only just.

It was a busy time with traveling to Stoke one day Crewe the next, that same day traveling to Middlesbrough, one day rest then back to Leicester, one more days rest before it was back to work.

But all told I enjoyed myself. I got lots of nice presents, which is always a nice bonus.

But we shall start at the beginning, The Amazing Sarah and I went to A Scally Mans wedding. It was a very nice affair. A great day was had by all, not to mention of course the Scally Man that got married, who for the first time since I have known him was unable to speak when he saw his bride. Very romantic and all that jazz. So jolly well done that man.

Next was off to The Amazing Sarahs parents house. I like visiting them, they are really nice people that are very down to earth and all are aces......apart from the little brother who kicked my ass at Fifa on his PS2. It was TAS' mums birthday on Xmas eve so we all went out for a drink for that and got pizza which I had a lot off, as I had to set a president for the Xmas dinner the next day.

Xmas day! I was woken up at 7.00am by the little brother. Cheeky little scamp was all excited and couldn't wait to see what Santa had brought. The Jolly old fat man had even managed to bring me a gift or two. The Amazing Sarahs family had got me the latest Ricky Gervais dvd, on the dvd was a sticker that you can write to and from to give it as a present. This sticker however was under the cellophane. But, The Amazing Sarah's family are so golden that they wrote ON the cellophane where the sticker was, because they are smart people and they know you leave that crap on till you are ready to watch the DVD. Brilliant.

After a stint there we came back to Leicester to pick up Jecka and had a bit of a rest. We watched the Dr Who special, Jecka cried. Then she went to bed.

Boxing Day (Jecka and My Xmas) The jolly fat man had been again, and to be fair had showered the little lady in gifts, all of which made it "The best day ever" for her. Mainly down to Dr Who dvd set and High School Musical dolls.

As for me I got:- Juggling clubs, Gremilns Boxset, Blade Runner Boxset (review to follow) and a brilliant camera. I also got money, some of which I have spent on a rowing machine.

New Years was a very little affair. Basiclly consisting of going to the pub for a few beers, then home to see the year in with the Take That special that was on. Shortly after which I passed out on the sofa. It was all far too much for me.

That is the long and short of it all.


Hope you also had a good time.
