My Friday

As Jamie drove off to spend the weekend in Anglesey with her mates leaving me working until 5, Billy got a walk before I cooked tea. Eating the tea I cooked was rushed because I had to take Lincoln and 3 of his mates skating but that was it once I got home. As I […]

Last trip to Oz

What an emotional evening it was for the cast and crew as they travelled to Oz for the final time. It was our second time watching Lincoln, but this time we were joined by Auntie Helen, Patty and Ian, who were just as blown away as we were on Tuesday night. The performance felt slightly […]

Wednesday frustration

I love going out to play pool on a Wednesdays but fackin ‘ell I sometimes think ‘why do I bother?’ That moment tonight should have been the moment I called a foul as referee and had to take the hatred of the opposition team for the rest of the evening….whatevs! The straw was the club […]

Impossible perfection
