Since Tuesday...

Since Tuesday what have I done, to be honest I've done very little and I've taken rest days. I do have a few things to do but i'm not back to work until Friday late. It's my long weekend and i'm likely to be quite busy. Of course it's pay day tomorrow and it couldn't come any sooner. Money has been really tight this month. It's a blip and it will improve. Ok, better get up and do something I guess...

Weymouth 1 vs 1 Braintree Town

Hmmmm... What can I say, I went to the match with Nikki's father. First time we'd been to a game for while. I went tonight because it was free, no other reason. The draw of the fact it's my home town is not enough anymore. They need to play better to bring the crowds back.
I seriously have to question Jerry Gill's tactics for the first 72 minutes. Weymouth went behind shortly before this and he decided to bring on Jake Reid as a result. Up to the this point Weymouth were strangely playing 4-5-1. A tactic only fit, big and physical teams can really pull off. Weymouth deployed the smallest man in the stadium, let alone the pitch to play on his own up front. He had no support, every time time he got near the ball 3 Braintree players were on him in a flash. On comes Reid as an extra forward. Now they're 4-4-2 and Weymouth are back in the game. The last 15 minutes Weymouth had a string of chances. Why oh why didn't play this from the start. Who was the home team, you'd think it was Braintree. Maybe it's a lack of confidence. Maybe they gave Braintree to much respect, but you've got to support the wee man up front. Start Reid from the start he has a presence and looked lively. Weymouth will probably get relegated and probably deserve to. Maybe it'll do them good to drop one more division. No more than that though please. The Echo tomorrow will probably hail that as a good performance. If they do I must question what game they were at. Get the tactics right though and maybe, just maybe we can still turn it around. NO MORE 4-5-1!!!

Followers...

The good news is I have followers, the bad news they are Nikki and I. I want more...

First an apology...

First an apology, sorry Nikki for my procrastination and not actually doing my chores until you returned home from work at 3pm, but I decided to have a duvet day.
Because of my deliberate procrastination I never made it to the cinema. But as Nikki was ill, it probably wasn't a bad thing that we never went out. On the upside Nikki now appears to be mute. On the downside I'm really struggling to understand her signing. Wish I made more of an effort to learn BSL.
Tomorrow evening I'm off to the footie with Nikki's Father. I've not been since the night we lost to Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup, whenever that was, 2005 or 2006 I think. Must wrap up warm because I'm randomly allergic to the cold. Now that's not one those lame made up allergies like allergic to work or washing up, but proper hives, itchiness and swelling. Not nice, plenty of layers tomorrow. Quite looking forward to the game and must remember to charge my camera. There will be photo's on the next post. Night all...

My weekend off, so far.

Mixed weekend for my footie teams. What a fantastic result for Everton, I really enjoyed that one. Super subs Dan Gosling and Jack Rodwell to the rescue for that one. But Weymouth lost again, serious problems there. They can't afford to go down again, it's the 80's all over again. Come the Terra's, I will make the effort to go to the free game on Tuesday. Bit cheeky but I'm skint. Thought there would be some international rugby this weekend but it's their weekend off. Mine too, so would have been able to watch if on. Also been watching Olympics and the Athletics. Got some chores to do but off to cinema this afternoon, so i'd better crack on...

Everton 3, Manchester United 1...

Oh my god, listened to second half and I didn't see that coming. Thought we'd struggle without MoFro and Cahill. I'm plesantly surprised, bring on Sporting Lisbon again...

This 'n' that friday...

I was on the same shift as Nikki today, but hardly saw her at all, as we were at oposite ends of the building. Another non-eventful shift, well it was in my unit at least. I had stuff to do in another unit a couple of times. We popped to ASDA on way home to get some veggies and stuff. Also to cash in some coppers etc. Made nearly £11 from it, not bad.
We've had a bit of a tidy on return and a tip run to get rid of the last boxes from our recent move. Nikki's preparing dinner and watching tv whilst ironing. Nikki's Mum is coming around later for dinner, that'll be nice.
What to do this weekend, Cinema or watch rugby? Or maybe both! I'll decide in the morning. Everton, my team, are playing Manchester United at the weekend. Just heard we've no Tim Cahill, won't be easy, what without MoFro (Marouane Fellaini) as well. It's gonna be tough, but you never know. Weymouth, my home town are playing tuesday night with free admission for all. This is because they were so awful during their last home game. So it's an appology gift to the fans. I've not been for a few years so it's a bit cheeky, but what the hey! It's free and i'm skint...

Last nights research

Found a tenuous family link between my family and my partners family, I do mean tenuous. My Grand-Mothers 1st stepfather is the 1st cousin twice removed of the wife of Nikki's 4th cousin once removed. So absolutely no relation to me whatsoever but an interesting link. It shows how small the world is. Took a bit of effort, but it was worth it. Probably wont do any research today, need a break from it. I really would love to make money from it. Need to research how I think...

Any old tuesday...

Well good day all, this is my blog of my life. Well where to start... I'm home at last, I had a slow day at work. 1st my alarm didn't go off this morning, but unfortunately I was all ready awake. I got up and it's nice to see it starting to get light at silly o'clock when I get up for work. Like I said though, it was a slow day at work. I work in a children's home for children with learning difficulties and I was working on my own (As usual) and the service user I was working with was content to do, well not a whole lot. So i'm glad to be home really. A friend of mine got me on to a game on Facebook. I'm finding it strangely addictive, so thanks Rob for that. My hobby is genealogy and family trees and i'm steady progress with that. Wish I could make some money with that, paid to do what I enjoy, that would be novel. Bit addicted to that too, so maybe the game isn't so bad as it's a nice distraction. Anyway that's enough for my first post, maybe write something later. Got some chores to do...
