It's Sunday. West Ham are currently beating Liverpool 2-1 at Upton Park and I'm egging on Kevin Nolan to score so I can get some FF points. Season started well but is slowly going downhill. Fellaini and Michu are the main culprits. I kept not subbing them in adamant they'd stop scoring. They haven't ha. I did finally sub Michu in this week though and he scored twice - now top scorer this season with 12. And he cost Swansea 2mil. Unbelievable.
Anyway my reason for posting is to talk about the weekend past. I got asked last Tues by Dale to play in a Stars In Their Eyes show in Douglas. It went really well in the end, I love being part of the house band. Being in the band pit is a great feeling, it's something I'd like to do more of in the future. It was a charity event so I was happy to do it for nothing but they gave £40 in the end which was great. It was a good experience. We only had one rehearsal on the Thursday and we pulled it together quite quickly and I'm generally happy with how I did. Did my job with no real fuss and they were happy with me. Met some cool people as well, jammed with a guitar and Dale on keys backstage which was cool. Was good to catch up with Dale as well, he's a good guy, and loves getting involved in these things. I can see he's gonna become a pillar of the community in a place like Douglas - he was involved in a Panto right before this show, then was doing another kids show after. He's a great keys player as well, and although I'd heard at school he wasn't great a reading music he seemed to be doing a fine job during the show.
Aside from that there's not much to say. Gonna do the pub quiz tonight for the first time in a while. Didn't get asked to play football today which sucks - I'm getting badly out of shape. Also sent out the invite for my birthday which is on Friday - gonna go to inn on the loch for food then a massive pub crawl. Gonna be epic. Aiming to hit EVERY pub in town so we'll see how that goes. Ally (Stewart) was giving Ryan and Scorge a lot of smack talk last night about how he's gonna out-drink them. Thankfully for him Scorge can't make it til later but not doubt Ske will take up the challenge! I'm just looking forward to a good night.
Anyway, dinner's ready (Sunday roast!) so I'm aff. Catch ye. (Y)
