So I have spent a week on the island… after returning home for the holidays… and, as usual… found nothing to do like normal!! So I’m just trying to survive down here!
So I thought I was going to do some of my assignments etc while I was down here, and guess what… nothing got done… but I did purchase two new folders in which to organise some work… very much needed they were!!
As we all noticed Christmas fell over on a Friday… and this was terrible for my social meetings for this holiday… so far non existent!! And it is the same story with most of my chums!! Haha!! So what did you get for Christmas?? Me personally… loada cash which is always welcome!! And some socks!! Can never have too many of them… after all at lease one disappears and neigh returns!!

Snow week = No snow Bristol
So as I’m sure we’ve all noticed Christmas is around the corner! And I’m all ready to track Santa with the NORAD tracking thingamabob. On the plus side this snow that has happened in the last few days makes it seem ever closer!! But all the snow managed to miss BRISTOL! I mean it managed to hit Cheltenham and Gloucester but not Bristol!!
And so I travel back to the Isle of Wight tomorrow for the not so merry Christmas break (so much work to do!) and new years. So I booked my ferry ticket last week!! For the wholesome price of £19, but this means catching the 9pm sailing compared with paying an extra £10 for the earlier hour’s sailing. I chose this because I am a student and therefore SKINT!
Today I have been told that I should have done my Christmas shopping by now, but last minute is always the best way!! Anyhoo I also had some amazing burgers from that butchers in Bishopston (opposite the rising sun) every time I go there they are amazing!! You should go!! And that is a fact!
So I’ve been moaning about getting a new phone for the past few months and have finally decided to get one… in the new decade and if something else comes my way… otherwise I’ll still be living off my brick of a phone! I also can’t decided which phone to get, the Apple I-phone, or the HTC Hero (G2) or a Blackberry. From looking at the contracts of these, and the various service providers I have noticed how confusing these get and that they are STUPID and hide things!! E.g. unlimited data is not unlimited! Is 500mb enough for a month??
I give up!
Laters!

The night was still young-ish… PLACEMENT
Sorry I haven’t posted in here in a while… but that doesn’t matter that much as not many people read this blog… so lonely… moving on…
Finally with the UWE 3’s defeating the UWE4’s in the much anticipated home derby match of the season, we had much to discuss!!
Firstly this was the first time in 2ish years the UWE 3’s triumphed over the UWE 4’s
Secondly we had much to discuss about my umpiring abilities from the match previous to our own.
Thirdly the number 15 from Winchester uni
Fourthly the relating to another match report the thong girl from Core 24, kindly written by a Mr Goodarzi
Fifthly the discussion of filth!!
Sixth, who was going to be captain of the Wednesday and Saturday side next year.
Seventh, the man of the match and the dick of the day.
And finally PLACEMENT!
So, with the prospect of ESPN 8 “The Ocho” coming to watch and report our truly amazing display of hockey, we decided as a team that as a team this was a must win match otherwise it was humiliation for the rest of our lives. And we won with a rather dazzling display of movement and goal scoring. Final score… 5-2.
With the rest of the hockey club going to the Christmas dinner on some place on Whiteladies road, the UWE 3’s decided to follow on from the previous week, their new tradition of having a curry and a beer at the riser for the amazing price of £3.75.
From having our most truly deserved meal we went on to discuss the topics mentioned.
1, how sweet victory felt after winning against the 4’s
2, I was a fool because I missed a big call…. A penalty flick because someone stopped the ball on the goal line with a “blatant” foot…. However because one cannot see, one cannot call… and thus the match went on…
3, following on from the number 11 of Glamorgan uni who was “amazing” and stew cummed because of his talent, we went on to the discussion of number 15 of Winchester uni hockey girls…. And how… um… large she was… and because she must have been filth in bed…
4, the thong girl, many a discussion happened about this person, with the mentions of purvey, martin, and his chum Andy…. And relating to a match report which can be found elsewhere. We went on to discuss who this fine person could have been… and how we could find out her name, and her number, and any other information about this person. With all these discussions at hand, our captain… cooper realised that his house mate worked within the establishment of Core 24, and with this fact in mind…. Many a questions were sent to mentioned housemate. And ended up facebook stalking her and other people…
5, from the discussion of the thong girl, we moved on to the discussion of filth, and how many a player within the team had a hidden girlfriend who looked absolutely filthy…. And this moved on to the discussion of one Saturday player, sisters and mum and how filthy they all looked!
6, from discovering that our team had mainly seniors who were on their final year, we moved on to the discussion of who could possibly be captain next year. One conclusion was this boy who was on international duty (http://domcovkid.blogspot.com) otherwise some fresher might have to take up the reigns for the team.
7, with all these discussions fresh in our minds we decided to cast our votes for the man of the match and dick of the day. Somehow I featured heavily in both of these, and almost got both of them bar from one vote… main reason… my umpiring, and the mention of PLACEMENT randomly within a conversation, and not chest-ing the ball this match. Anyhow. The winner of MoM was New Nick, for being truly amazing at his left back role!! And the DoD was wonderfully Captain cooper, for missing numerous amazing chances to score within last 5 minutes of the match!
To finish of the day, we decided to rejoin the rest of the club by heading to the crappy lounge…..
So… laters….
