Margate?s Big Weekend

I haven?t really got anything to blog about at the moment, well, anything interesting to blog about, so I won?t. If you are around Thanet this weekend then can I point you in the direction of Margate?s Big Weekend,?Kent’s Leading Air and Land Festival?.
This is another event I usually miss out on but I will [...]

Party like it?s 1999

I saw this on the TV this morning whilst I was eating my cereal and thought I?d pop it up here. I was just wondering what dates we had to look forward to? The millennium is a pretty special date, and of course it doesn?t really mean anything but it was a nice round date [...]

Kitchen Update

I was working down the house last night and only got to see the 2nd half of the Champion?s League final between Manchester United and Barcelona, but from what I saw it looked like Barça thoroughly deserved their win and were the better team on the night.
As for my work down the house, which I [...]

Ramsgate and Margate Relegated

I went to the last game of the season yesterday, Ramsgate?s last in the Ryman Premier Division, which saw the team lose 3-0 against Ashford (Middlesex). We were down already and will be playing in Ryman Division 1 South.
It?s been a poor season and changes need to be made. I have hope for next season [...]

Aching limbs plus more news

At the moment I?m aching a fair bit after a good weekend of sport. I played Basketball on Saturday for about 1.5 hours which was fun as it was a sunny day and then it was time to watch the remainder of the 6 Nations rugby matches. Yesterday I played 90 mins of Sunday league [...]

Football Managers Needed

Football Managers Needed

..for an online management game.
For the past two and a half years (see initial post here) I?ve been immersed in an online game called Xpert Eleven and the league I run is looking for new managers. It?s quite a simple set-up and that is the beauty of it in that you can either log on [...]

Mystery Gates at Westwood

I hurt my knee and ankle on Sunday by getting my catching my foot in a divot whilst kicking the ball. This meant a lot of pressure was put on my dodgy knee and even dodgier ankles. For the next couple of days I was hobbling around and even had to miss my usual 5-aside [...]

Photos from Margate Big Sky Beach Cross Weekend

As promised in yesterday?s post here are my photos from the Margate Big Sky Beach Cross Weekend. I took quite a few and it made a change to be taking photos of something different. I put a slideshow below or you can see the photos on my Flickr page.

Quad Biking at Margate

Something that?s happened for the past few years, but I?ve never managed to go to is the Quad Racing Association Margate Big Sky Beach Cross Weekend, or QRAMBSBC for short, or how about just the Quad Bike thingy at Margate. Yet again it seems to be something that has sneaked up on me, and I [...]

Back from Bournemouth

And now I?m back from my weekend in Bournemouth. It was Phil?s stag weekend, we went out on Friday night, got drunk, went clubbing, and had fun. On saturday we went on an activity day (Rage Buggies, Dodgeball Paintball, Blind 4×4, and Clay Pigeon Shooting), went for a meal, got in fancy dress, went out, [...]
