Good morning guys, thought I had better do one of these.

Firstly it was a shock for Andy Murray to lose last night.

Friday:- got to work and got told your off Saturday (as I had said I wanted to go to the rugby at Oban), do the rota. Now I did one where I could have done backshift most of the week. There was 2 members of staff off in supermarket but thankfully they got somebody else from dayshift.

Everything went really well at work that day. I had to cut the amounts of days for somebody else but that was ok.

Friday night 5.15 I got the bus into Ayr and got a train to Glasgow. I had already booked a hotel for £30 a night. I got there, but had to taxi to the Argyll Guest House in Sauchiehall Street. The room was across the road from reception. The room was very clean, good facilities, good bathroom and normal sized bed.

I had went up to go and see Rockaoke in Oneills in Sauchiehall Street where Kirsty Crawford was there. Unfortunately I didn't know many people there. I got there about obout 8pm. I wanted to sing all the small things, but that was claimed already. I started with American Idiot by Green Day. I thought there was going to be a screen, there wasn't. I did lose my place but it was ok. In the 2nd half I started it with Chelsea Dagger by The Fratellis. It was a great night. I had about 7 pints I think and got asked to leave about midnight. The security guard was right there. I couldn't say goodbye to Kirsty though, sorry about that. I went to a shop and got a taxi to guest house after getting muchies.

Next morning I got up at 7am, hungover ofcourse. I had booked a taxi for 830am. I had to go down to Q8 services at Kilmarnock to get bus to Oban Lorne RFC.

I got there on time and even managed to get lunch fae Greggs.

The rugby was very wet. We visited The Green Welly Stop at Tyndrum. It looked really good, apart from the fact there wasn't enough staff as long wait for teas. People were late back for the bus. I even sell some of the stuff they have in there. I also reckon its profit margins look like 50/60% (just my opinion).

We got to Oban Lorne RFC about 215pm and the players got warmed up quickly as the rain continued. We just lost. I stayed sober coming back down as I working Sunday.

Ok, got home about 1030pm, tired. I didn't stay up late that night.

Since then its been basically working. Sunday 10-5 then backshift Essentials btu got a good lunch on Monday at Wellington Cafe, Ayr for £3.

Now I aint sure when my dayoff next is next week.

TV and stuff

Katy Perry (Credit to DdandD for pic)
Well first things first. John Bercow has become the speaker-elect of the house of commons. When I spoke to Brae Scotland on twitter she asked who wanted to be the new speaker, I said not Margaret Beckett.

She came in and said Stephen Fry. That would be the best. Unfortunately it was the MPs who were deciding who the speaker was.

I didn't watch much of the tennis at wimbledon but I know Federer won and the 15 year old girl won 1st set but lost the match.

I hope everyone out there has cancelled Sentanta as they have almost no football and will soon be in administration. SPL cancelled their deal with them today and ESPN will be taking the English premiership games they had. Sky will probably get the SPL games they said on news.

I promised last night I would talk about Top Gear and here it comes.
Michael Schumacher as "The Stig" they had just tested a Ferrari (who is a consultant for Ferrari). The end of the show was funny ofcourse (totally false but funny as The Stig knows that course as he teaches everybody). I even had a german ask me about Top Gear when Germany doesn't get our version of it. I got him the Topgear Youtube channel.

The lotus wasn't very powerful. The race was amazing. I thought Jeremy was going to win (even though as a topgear fan I really should cheer Captain slow winning, just doesn't feel right).

Next after a short break I watched Alan Carr on ChattyMan which was on Channel 4. Katy Perry was really good at singing and her dress was very nice. Samuel L Jackson was a great first guest and Ivana Trump wasn't bad, not great, but not bad.

I will definately be watching it again.

I missed Chuck last Tuesday, so I am going to watch it at 10pm tonight. Great fun.

I had also say that I found a few new (and old) people on twitter including a lovely Musician called Linda Hughes fae Cumnock Lindas twitter and Lindas myspace page
