At last a social weekend!
Well after moaning about the lack of a social life I manage to make a consecutive Friday & Saturday night out. Alas, Friday was a bit too overindulgent meaning I missed out on overtime Saturday morning. Was a work do that started at 4pm and went on till far too late. After a few beers in the office we went up to the Moon On The Hill for a couple and ended up in the Sutton Arms after being refused entry to The Treasury. Group too drunk and someone (not me) wearing trainers.
Recovered in time for a crawl of Wimbledon. After a couple in the Alexandra we wondered up to the village to find everywhere heaving. Disappointingly we did not visit the revamped Dog & Fox as you couldn’t get through the door, however the Rose & Crown, Brewery Tap and SW19 were done before heading back down back to the Alex. Interestingly, the Rose & Crown have got speed dating on Valentines Day, something I may be tempted by. Only a fiver but I might chicken out nearer the time.
Don’t have to worry about the FA cup this year with Saints going out to Man City. Saw the Man U Skates game, and saw Rooneys wonder chip. David James expression was excellent acknowledging the class of the goal. Sunday I ended up in the Little Windsor for the Arsenal Bolton draw. Wasn’t a great game. Not sure why Wenger doesn’t play Theo up front rather than right midfield. Still with Arsenal getting a draw it is another opportunity for Mr Wenger to moan about playing too many matches.
Big Brother finished on Sunday evening with Shilpa winning. Pleased to see Jack and Danielle get booed. The latters reaction to being shown the bullying was priceless. Shame Davina didn’t tell her that Teddys also dumped her! Strange thing though is who actually goes to the eviction and more worryingly who went to sing the A-Team theme!
