Flooding

 Much better than Sunday but not looking likely to be at the club for some time as there is more rain forecast




This is the racecourse not the rugby pitches.  They're much better.


Continuing our journey in Hell

 


Gambling, I got the top score


Chicken and sweetcorn chowder

 I was supposed to cook this on Sunday but with all the fun with the power cut it was postponed.  I cooked it last night.  Pretty good, but have done better.

Rugby

 I played my last game of rugby of the season on Saturday.  Was it my last???  We won 7-50.  They scored first.  I was the oldest back by at least 15 years. I have to admit it was a struggle keeping up with kids!  We had 4 brothers playing in the same game.  All 4 of them scored!  I didn't...

There are two more games I could possibly play but with the operation in a few weeks I thought it wise not to make myself available.

AC/DC cover band

 We went to the Forum, Tunbridge Wells last Friday to see an AC/DC covers band.  They were pretty decent.




Operation date

 I have my shoulder operation date confirmed.  3 weeks today.  I've also got a CT scan on my nose (sinus) tomorrow.  I saw the consultant and he stuck a camera up my nose.  He's recommended a CT scan to take a more detailed look so am booked in.

Power cut = Chateaubriand

 We got back to a house without power after from watching TJs ladies winning on Sunday so we popped to our local Italian / French restaurant for dinner instead.




Tonbridge floods

 The water is very high in Tonbridge at the movement.  The rugby pitches have been flooded to protect the town.





Rat!

 With the river water so high in Tonbridge at the moment, looks like we have a rat!  Bloody hell that was big.




Ass blasters

Spotted these in a shop near me on Sunday.  I'm going to get some!
