Just had a couple of suits at the door, I know they believe in what they do, I know they must get loads of rejections and abuse, I know they have a vocation for their religion.

Maybe I was a bit harsh, but they didn't stay at my door for too long..

We have a World Champion in Ellesmere Port.... Anastasia Dobromyslova won the ladies BDO darts tournament last night. I wonder if she would partake in a game of poker at the aquarium....

Saw that article - hugely biased and very insulting

Played the APAT game online last night and came a frustrating 4th. I can't complain as I got lucky when I needed to. I enjoyed it immensely, even though it was a light turnout.

Today will mostly be about the Rugby as I relax before heading to Swindon early tomorrow.

I was contemplating a trip to Poole in May and have been researching hotels. I left that town over 40 years ago and would not remember hotels, but a few old names stick in my befuddled brain. One of them is the Antelope Hotel so I googled it. Then some street names made me come all over nostaligic.



Top right is Globe Lane - I was born in a two up two down in that street, as were my sisters (demolished years ago). It leads on to Lagland Street where I went to primary school for two years. It has made up my mind - I will visit........

Google is fab. My mum and dad still live in the house I was born in. I would post a pic of it but Nellie would probably worry about Robbie Williams stalking her again  ;)
