At the pub... couple more beers and then off to the ground <ok>

Bournemouth fans <laugh>

I would be there too!
Turned down 3 tickets due to going away. Living in Weymouth nowadays I've seen both clubs a fair few times.

Both good clubs imo. Hopefully both will became long term PL clubs (Southampton already are, Bouremouth need to last a few more seasons).

Should be a good game, as both teams have an identity when they play, and both attack very well.
 
Manchester Utd scrape a 0-0 from West Brom.

Surely they've ****ed it for top 4 now?

tbh I think the top 4 will be the top 4 as it is now, not sure about order, but 1st-4th are easily the best 4 teams in England.

Have to agree. Assuming we don't **** up like last year!...

Yeah I really like Bournemouth, love to see them do well. They just seem to want to make a rivalry that for us just isn't there.

I mean, calling us scummers and that <laugh>... there's only one south coast derby. In a way I think it annoys them more that we don't hate them if that makes sense.

Why did you turn the tickets down ya tosser we could have had a beer!
 
So I took Stan Jr to play tennis this morning.

He needs to work on his serve to keep his place in his club team. I haven't played tennis for 20 years.

After 20 minutes of serving practice we decide to play a set. First point and I managed to trip over my own clown feet chasing a drop shot.

As we were playing on astroturf I now have a very burnt elbow. Didn't hurt at the time but it's very sore now and is freaking weeping!

Stupid, middle aged old twat.

I won 6-1.

At least you hurt yourself doing some exercise, I fractured both elbows trying to get on a sun bed! <laugh>

Because I've only just got back mate, wouldn't have time and tbh couldn't face going out now!

I'll be down that way at least once more this season though mate, I'll give you a holla.

Got friends from Bouremouth and Southampton with season tickets, so it's nice and easy to get tickets <ok>

City have two tough ones coming up within 3 days. Arsenal away tomorrow. Chelsea away Weds.

From our point of view just hope they neutralise each other. Or better still, kick 7 colours out of each other.
 
I'm just negotiating a house swap with a couple from Costa Rica. Looks amazing, jungle, rainforest, monkeys, jaguars, lots of surf and plenty of adventure. Right up my street.

Just reading about Crocodiles and sharks at the beach near where i'm hoping to stay. I've surfed in sharky waters before, but never with crocs !!!
 
Back in Weymouth with a head like a ****ing space ship...

I'll do a diary post later for ****s and giggles.

All went well though, and really happy how things turned out (that's what I can remember, might not be 100% the case).

Feel for you mate, especially as it's been nice and sunny all day here ;)
 
Had the kind of day that makes me happy.

Woke up still breathing, Mrs Stan was still there.

Took Stan Jr to his cricket club for an informal nets session with his team mates. Chatted **** to the other dads having also chatted **** to them the previous evening in the clubhouse. Good bunch.

Got home and watched some of the Merseyside derby, good game.

Took Stan Jr to his tennis club for his lesson. His serve needs work.

Got home and watched the second half of United's training session.

Had a cuddle with Stanette and then made tea for the kids.

Sunk a couple of beers before moving onto the vino.

Thank you to whoever is in charge, can it always be like this please? :azn:
