Training went well last night, although within the first five minutes I'd knocked of the burn on my knee which proceeded to bleed for the remainder of the session. It was a good laugh though and I didn't feel to out of place with my fitness which was odd as I've done very little since the season ended.
My people call me the dude. I share my teachings in the passages below... (along with many typos, grammatical errors and lazy writing)

New music
I bought two new Cds yesterday, Korn's latest and Slash's collaboration album.
I've only listened through them once each so far but they're pretty good. Especially Korn's effort.
In other music news, one of the guys on my recent rugby tour has 80gb of music so he's going to let me take my pick through his collection. He's got loads of old metal and rock stuff on there so I'm looking forward to that.

Hmm. Have we got the day wrong?
I think our cleaner was supposed to pop round earlier today, but it hasn't been cleaned. Maybe it's Friday she comes. Not great if she has missed it after only one week.
Rugby training
'm going rugby training tonight, the first time in ages. I think I went once last year. Seeing as I'm now vice-captain as well as backs-captain I should probably make the effort. Saying that, my knee got a smack playing beach rugby so I'm not sure how much running I'll be doing.

Stud
My work computer's spell checker doesn't recognise the word Stu, right clicking on the red underline gave the option of Stud. Need I say more?
Fingers crossed
Each year, before the hurricane season starts (June-October) a list of 26 names is created to help identify each new hurricane that appears. This year 3 out of my team at work (7) are in there.
Alex
Richard
Tom(as)
Is that an omen? I surely hope not, as that'll mean bye-bye to me getting a nice big fat bonus.

Back but shattered
Nearly fell asleep at my desk this afternoon. Boy i'm tired. A max of 4 hours sleep each night over the past 4 nights. Perhaps a day too long but it was a good laugh though.
Highlights include playing against the Estonian national side (they wore dresses???), and one of our team forgetting his passport at the hotel, only realising when we got to the airport. The airport was in Latvia, the hotel was in Estonia. Ha, ha.

Urgh, to sleep or not to sleep
I'm off to Estonia very early tomorrow. Urgh. I'm getting picked up at 2:30am so that we can catch our 6am plane. Jeez! Shall I try and get some sleep or shall I just try to stay up?

Home sweet home
Urgh. Just got back from our week long holiday. Tired now.
Monday: 5 hour drive to Looe, quiet night in.
Tuesday: A wander round Looe before going to a Monkey sanctuary then a cider farm and a lovely meal in Looe.
Wednesday: A drive to Plymouth to go on their gin tour, followed by a lovely meal in Looe.
Thursday: Drive to Fowey, to go canoeing but once we got there were told that it was cancelled due to the bad weather, so had a good wonder round and a nice bite to eat. Then off to the St Austell Brewery for a tour and a couple of decent ales.
Friday: Drive to a lovely country stately home, finding out that it was £12 each to get in so went to see an old jail instead. Then off to the Camel Winery for a tasting. Drive to Padstow, a wonder round then dinner at Rick Stein's. Brilliant!
April had some sort of oriental crab thing and I had some mackerel to start. Then April had a Thai fish curry and I had 2 whole massive chili crabs. It was hard work but I managed it without looking like too much of an idiot. To finish April had a Satsuma Sorbet while I had some cheese and some port. Yum, yum!
Saturday: Drive 3 hours to a village outside Bristol to see John and Ros and their new baby Ethan. Luckily he doesn't look like John... Grab a bite to eat then drive home to Tonbridge
Sunday: I plan to do nothing.
Pictures: Driving to the cider farm, meeting Boo Boo the monkey, April and her cream tea, meeting a sad pub dog, April at the winery, April in sunny Looe, Stuart the monkey.

Who said Italian football had kicked out corruption?
I'm paying AC Milan in my latest game of Football Manager. How on earth can you score this without deliberately going for goal?
