Wiggy’s World

So judging by the title you may wanna skim-read to the 2 paragraphs Fee

Yesterday seemed to turn up some proper sporting shocks! First of all Zimbabze beat the might Aussies at cricket in the 20/20 World Cup, Wales were awesome in their 5-2 demolition of a Slovakian team that did well to draw 2-2 with Ireland at the weekend, and top of the list of shocks… Scotland beat France 1-0 in their own back yard! The so called group of death has been turned on its head somewhat, with the Scots now leading the group having beaten the French TWICE

England game was good to watch, and I think thats something like 4 qualification games we’ve won on the trot 3-0! Good first half performance! I must admit I was shocked by a text message I got when Owen scored after only 7 minutes! It seems Maddsy has decided to come out from behind the Iron Curtain, no Englands qualification is back on track! Having supported Brazil and Germany in their games against England!

Yesterday at work, had a few more chats via email with one or two people, and then got a surprise text from someone i’ve not spoken to since I was looking forward to going to Bratislava with the lads. The text read something like “Im watching Sky Sports News and Bratislava is on! Haha! It’s real!” Which made me chuckle! So i replied and got into a brief conversation with Michelle about how she’s going and how everything it turning out and that! Always nice to hear from people in the past.

Got home and uploaded the video (blog below) to the site, and sat and watched it again. Chatted to Ruby again on msn, and then went in the bath to try and relax, as my body was stiff as hell! This worked a bit, but once i’d got downstairs I felt weak, and had a headache! So a few paracetemols, and a mug of tea were called into action and I chilled and watched the football!

Seems someone else I know had a slightly more action/packed/comedy night, as this extract from an email I got this morning shows…

I had quite a busy night last night. A mate of mine has got a bar in his apartment (The Cleansing Ale public house) and he needed some stools to sort it out. A trip to Home Centre later and we’d got 5 of the finest flat-packed barstool. Once we’d unloaded the 7 crates of Tuborg he’d purchased just before the offy shut for a month, I set to work and assembled these barstools. After the 2^nd stool the instructions went out of the window and I was knocking ‘em out like a Taiwanese sweat shop mate ha ha!

After that was sorted I went back home for a quick change and then it was off to the last remaining establishment that was left open. It was pretty good though, because it’s the Irish bar and it’s mostly Brits in there. We had a few sherbets and watched the games before getting our pint pots snatched off us and booted out at the stroke of midnight when Ramadan kicked off officially! We didn’t really feel like going home and were all a bit puckish so we piled in the chippy! There’s an actual “English fish & chip” shop next door and they do a gorgeous bit off cod! After abusing the Philipino bloke behind the bar we got stuck in to our snap before all being stopped in out tracks!! A few others walked in and amongst them was a broad Scottish gentleman of the Asian persuasion! As soon as he opened his mouth it was an instant head-fuck LOL! One of my mates, who’s a real broad Geordie just dropped his fork and announced “I’m confused! This fella goes against everything I’ve ever known….that’s it, I’m phonin’ me mam”!! ROFL!! He then gets his phone out and rings his Mum back home and tells her that there’s a Scottish Paki in the chippy and he doesn’t know what to do ha ha!! Needless to say she soon hung up, so we ate up, dished out a tad more abuse to the guy behind the counter and headed off home.

How random!
