Premier League

This seasons league race is warming up very nicely. Liverpool have played above themselves all season & continue to be impressive & that takes alot to say coming from an avid Man.City fan like myself. Man.Utd are currently 7th & have been very weak in there defence of there league title they won last year. I don't think David Moyes will be the manager for much longer (you heard it first here). Arsenal are doing there usual of playing great football throughout the season then starting to play poorly at the final stages of the season. The race for the title will be between Man.City, Chelsea & Liverpool. With 8 games left, only 2 points seperate the top three. I will keep you updated as to events and how the title is decided.

Kohler Cup Semi Final & 3 Man Team Quarter Finals

On Monday 17th March I reached the semi final of the Kohler Cup. It is a tournament I have won several times in the past & it would be great to win it again! The semi final draw takes place on Monday 7th April so I will update you with that & my progress. Since my move to The Moor Club in January, I have consistently improved & feel happy being in a team with great team spirit. There a good set of lads there who are keen to win. Also, this Thursday we are playing in the quarter final of the 3 man team k.o.so I will also update you with our progress in this competition too. In the last round we were over 90 points behind with me going on last to play my two frames & I won comfortably by over 140 points ensuring our passage into the quarters.

Brandon's 11th Birthday

On Monday 17th it was Brandon's 11th Birthday. We had already planned that we would go to our favourite place to eat on his birthday, Pizza Hut!

We had both had very little to eat up to heading off there so we were both ready for a feast. We had a platter to share for starters followed by a Meat Feast with cheesy bites. It was delicious washed down with two glasses of Pepsi.

We then headed off to Grandmas so Brandon could open his presents. He had a great day and was very happy.

FA Cup 5th round

In the week, I purchased two tickets for Brandon & I to go and watch our beloved Manchester City host Chelsea in the 5th round of the FA Cup at The Etihad. This was part of a surprise towards his birthday which was two days after the match. We parked close to the stadium and headed off on foot. Getting closer Brandon still had no idea where we were going until he noticed dozens of people with City clothing on walking close to us then he smiled knowingly.

Upon arrival we collected our tickets then headed for some grub then into the stadium. We were lucky to be seated in the large leather seating area for the day.

City won with ease 2/0 and now face Wigan Athletic in the quarter final.

Valentines Night

My wonderful Louize booked us a table for valentines day in the evening at Kro Bar. Louize had Mussels in white wine sauce for starters followed by Risotto with peas & mushrooms with Panacotta for dessert. I had the Mussels followed by Rib Eye Steak with cheesecake to finish. We shared a nice bottle of Rośe with our meal. 

3 Man Team Knockout

Last Thursday the 3 man team started in The Manchester Snooker League with all first round matches taking place at The Pyramid in Dukinfield. We were drawn against a team based there. This particular competition each player plays two frames each. When it was my turn to play last we found ourselves 109 points behind plus I was giving a start each frame. I play really well and restricted my opponent to around 40 points only over two frames whilst I constructed two breaks over 40 and a further two over 30 seeing us safely through into the next round...

Hitman Hattons Gym

I have recently joined Ricky Hattons gym in Hyde to try and get myself in some kind of healthy shape. I put several extra pounds on over Christmas and am not one thats known for doing exercise so now is the time for a change. I am averaging two visits a week and thus far I am really enjoying my times there. After a workout I like to chill in the sauna for around 30 minutes with a shower to follow. Keep it up...
