This will be a short one as i am tired and cant be bothered
this week.
After getting Chris to cover my last 30 mins on the counter
at work (good bloke is our chris) i got home just in time to get my gear
together before Ian arrived to take us on our mamoth journey to the North of
England. We loaded up the car and set off. After 50 mins we were in Cov picking
up Moo and Nik for the second leg. Moo as per usual was anti social in the car
listening to his mini dasc player whilst the rest of us had a laugh and a joke
about road signs and phantom drummers underneath Ians rickety car.
About 9pm
we arrived at Marks place in Congleton (near crewe) dropped off our stuff and
headed forthe local, for their tapas night! We got the beers in took the piss
out off moo for a bit and just sat in the beer garden checking out the local
lasses (and there was a hell of a lot of them too).
Friday morning soon came around and the trip to
Blackpool......we wanted to divert through the village of wheelock (the car
jackers nightmare) but Dave wouldnt let us. 1hour and 30 min later we were
there - and the first port of call was a greasy cafe to have us some
food....hhhmmm all super day breakfast. There was the prospect of a good day
(except for that moos shorts kept rising up and showing what he had in his
lunch box-----i still shudder to think what food stuffs he has hidden down
there......i seem to remember a t-shirt with my sentiments being for sale in a
tacky little shop. Well w filled the rest of the day with a cowboy photo,
icecream, electrocuion game, horseracing, sticks of rock.
Returned to Marks that pm and headed offinto town to have us
some more beer. Poor dave been driving all day and missed his hops! We went to
a few pubs and had a chuckle at the byrds over the road having a party (but
they werent), dave decided it would be a good idea to go to the local nightclub
(wearing shorts and sandles - i dont think so dave), so we got turned away and
ended up in the bulls head. The fanny boys danced, whilst me and mark propped
up the bar. Ian Nik and Moo almost got in a fight over the pool table with some
locals - good on ya lads!
Saturday came as did the football - insteda of going
manchester as we were all shattered. I now procleme ian the master of penalties
(he won 3 of 4 competitions). After footy we got food (i had pasta - i dont
like pasta - strangely if sat well in my stomach for a change). Then we
showered and got changed and the taxi picked us up to take us int o stoke.
First stop harleys (american bar), i like it there should have stayed longer.
Then off to branagans - we were the first there, and the bar maid was nice and
kept making eyes at me. Moo was hammered after a lot of vodka and explaining
that he liked cars as they get you places (welll duh). Again the fannys danced
whilst me and mark drank - ian and dave pulled some horrors - i spent most of
the night chatting to some 29 year old byrd who looked pretty darn good for her
age, but sadly was married (she kept on reassuring me they were seperated).
We left got home after some cheese dogs from the burger van
and crashed (me in the kitchen with the dog after dave stole my hallway
position)
Sunday consisted of mcdonalds and quasar (dave sweats like a
fish in quasar - its quite unnerving being chased by a sweaty dave in the
dark), then home via cov to drop moo and nik off.
Sortry this report has been rubbish - im tired and bloated -
just had corned beef, tomato and onion sandwiches....hhhhmmmm.
