Slacking

My sincere apologees for my lack of blogging, I have been and still am a very busy boy at uni I won't bore you with the fine details but a combination of essays, presentations, exams and general crap organisation skills of lecturers have not increased my Christms spirit as yet.

Last weekend was good though, I came back for Lauren's birthday outing which was on the Saturday, prior to this I managed a couple of rushed pints with the boys who were off to LA and chops who was away over the weekend, we had a nice group cuddle which prompted some curiosity from the onlookers. Friday saw me take a trip to Harrow with Simon for a bit of Christmas shopping, I don't think he fully appreciated my gay bent but I had been lacking since the last time I had seen anyone and then the evening saw a trip to the Vic (which was poo) and then onto Moons with Gary and Hodgson. This quiet night out turned out to be a not quite so quiet night as we drank into the early hours and resulted in a very pissed and subsequently hungover Tom and Gary. Saturday was the big day to Guanabara in London, it included a very odd crowd of a mixture of people that in theory should not have really worked but somehow did. An old man, well 2 if you count Simon haha, a fat arab, women, people's exs very strange.

There has been no betting recently because I am completely uninspired...only the shit tennis players are playing at the moment and the world of football has been crazy. Just ridiculous results week in week out. Liverpool being booed off the pitch after going top of the premiership just summed it up really. I think I will continue to hold off betting until either football has calmed down a bit or I start to get excited by X-Factor!

It's December and I achieved my own persoal target of avoiding listening to a full Christmas song before the 1st, I'm not a scrooge as I love Christmas but despise how early it arrives each year. December the 1st is when it starts eating advent chocolate, watching the girls put up the tree and investing in some Christmas beer and mince pies! So I am now exceedingly excited to get back for Christmas and Christmas bent. Pointless and fancy dress two major pissups. I did have an idea that amused myself about mixing the two together....Can you imagine a whole group of people all dressed up as tramps but on their own in the middle of London? Set the scene.... Bar OnAnon 6 tramps finish their cocktails and leave all in different directions, one tramp enters Cheers to be greated by another tramp already in their giving him the finger shouting 'I got here first now fuck off'. Imagine the looks on peoples faces when sat in a busy Nag's head pub as they point at a tramp and ask their friend 'why's that guy dressed as a tramp...and on his own' then imagine the amusement when he gets up and leaves only for a different tramp to arrive in the same pub half an hour later! Anyway I can't see this ever happening but as long as we get the two nights in somewhere over Christmas with a decent attendance it will keep me happy!!
