God gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to you, Gave rock and roll to everyone.
Hello people.
I thought I would update and tell you all about my weekend.
Those of you who are regular readers of this blog (not many but I'm sure there are a few) will know that I've been to Coniston it was an absolutely excellent weekend and the sun was out and it didn't rain and spoil itself, we were really lucky and I'm slightly dissapointed to be home but all good things must come to an end, I'll run through a few things that we did.
Friday:
Set off from Harrogate at about 10am drive to the lakes listening to my compilation cd (includes songs such as 'hands up, baby hands up, give my your heart gimme gimme....) so that was ace, took abit longer than expected to get there but we got there safely and checked into the campsite and set up our tents, (my tent was up first, hooooray) I cracked open a beer and sat in my chair watching, Trelly, Paul, Robin, Keelie and Matt fuck about with their tents, pretty soon everyone was sorted and all enjoying a beer in the hot hot sun, I had no sun cream but fuck it, I'm a man.
So I got burned on my arms and legs and moaned.
Steve and his wife Heather turned up at about 6pm with their dog, Lucy, I sat back and watched them get their tents up, once they got their tent up I was worn out with all that watching, so I had another beer and started to cook some food, Tomato and basil pasta thing, twas reet nice.
I drank 7 cans all in all then it was time to set off to the pub, Went to the Ship Inn, had a pint in there (£2:70 a pint) Then walked into town and went to the Yewdale (£2:60 a pint) sat there for the rest of the evening with everyone telling stories and jokes ( my jokes were the best) Trel made a really funny remark about cheese graters but its one of those thing where, 'you have to be there' to find it funny left the pub at about midnight and staggered back to our tents for some kip.
Saturday
Got up at 6am!!!!! (Thanks to Steve) so my hangover was pretty bad but I could cope, got cleaned up and stuff and had beans and sausages for brekkers, (champion!) Then we went to Ambleside for a wander around, We saw Morris dancers and they were pretty dull to be honest, but still good to see. My favourite shop has closed down (A magic shop) and a smaller one has opened down the road abit but it's rubbish now so I was dissapointed. I had a sausage roll from Greggs (which seemed to be run by children, strange days indeed) Then it was back to the campsite.
Went swimming at lunchtime and had good fun in the lake, I managed to slip on a rock and cut my shin but it didn't hurt too much. I got out and sat on a rock to dry off, Robin managed to throw a frisbee and hit me right on my fresh cut and that hurt alot but I didn't tell anyone.
I went back to my tent after a few hours and was rather badly sunburned.
Trelly and me decided we wanted fish and chips for lunch so Paul drove us to town and I got fish and chips (tasted really bland) then we just relaxed, I felt abit poory so I went to the loo and threw up, (not the first time I've been poorly after eating fish and chips in Coniston) I came back to the tent and had a sleep, I awoke later still feeling bad and realised that it was the food that made me poorly I had sunstroke so I sat in the shade and moaned then had another sleep and felt better (I had also bought some sun cream by now and that was nice and cold) we set off to town and the sheeps all said 'baaa' except for one which said 'Robiiiiiin' we went to the same pubs again and had a good drink, Steve had sun stroke too but he got on with the job in hand (drinking!!) The barman in the Yewdale was the gayest bloke ever, Hilarious! Back to the tents at about 01:00 and then down to the beach for a few more beers.
Sunday
Got up about 8am and had some pasta for brekkers then we did nothing for ages so I went to the beach with my fishing rod, 1 float, 2 weights, some hooks and sweetcorn for bait, had a bit of fun but the hook kept on snagging the rocks on the botton of the lake when I reeled it in so that was annoying, I managed to cath a really big stick but that was all. Back to the tent and had a couple of beers and chilled for a while, then Me, Paul and Trelly went to town for some supplys, I got some more fishing tackle and a sausage roll, went back to the campsite and did abit more fishing but still caught nothing, I let Trelly have a go with my rod and he managed to cast out the line and fall in the lake, that was really funny.
Went to town in the evening and drank at the crown (£2:70 for a flat pint) and then onto the black bull (£2:90 for a pint!!! money grabbing bastards) We didn't goto the Yewdale because Steve had managed to upset the gay barman so we felt it best if we left him alone. Had a good drink in there then home at about 11:30 we sat up and looked at the stars and Steve pointed out some constellations which were impressive. Went to bed and had a good kip.
Monday
Got up, had a poo, packed up some of my stuff andthen went for another poo, packed up my tent and everything and loaded it into the car and though it would be best to go for another poo, I did my new favourite thing to do in public toilets and that is make grunting/straining noises for a laugh, we set off and went to Ambleside for some brekkers in Daisys, I had a Sausage in a bun with a mug of tea and then had another poo. We set off home at about 11am and had a good ride home, I'm now really tired and gotta go back to work tomorrow, but all in all it was one of the best camping weekends I've had. I would advise anyone to go there sometime, or come with us lot next year.
I'm gonna go chill out now, might even get my head down for an hour or so. Hope the update wasn't too boring, it's more of an update for the people who went with me and can relate to the experience but for the rest of you, that's what I did this weekend, what did you do?
Take care,

All I needed was the love you gave, All I needed for another day, And all I ever knew, Only you.
Moan Moan Moan Moan Moan, That's all I get from you guys, yeah I know I promised an update sooner than now, but bollocks to you, I've done nowt.
Last week (Friday the 7th) was my birthday, thanks to everyone who sent me messages and cards that was very nice. However, as what usually happens around celebration times, I got poorly, (I had a 24 hour bug t'other year that only affected me on christmas day, my dad had it for boxing day and my mum the day after, but at least they got their xmas day meal!!!)
So as I said I felt like shit all day, I didn't eat anything till tea time when I rustled up some scrambled eggs an toast, and halfway through.............threw up, I thought about staying in and getting an early night but fuck that, it was my birthday so I went out, I drank guinness because it's nice and a good drink to sup if you have tummy ache, but after about 6 pints of that I felt full so I went onto 'old faithful' Jack Daniels and coke (always a double I'm a man it's the rules) I felt fucking magic after a few of them so I got merry and we fucked off to Cardinal Sins I carried on supping my JD & C and eventually threw up! time to leave, so as it was a friday me and trel went to Asda for a sandwich I got a chicken salad and munched that all the way home.
Saturday, well to be honest I had planned for a hangover except I got sickness and the shits (I'm guessing that's what made me feel so shit the day before) so I spend most of the day in the toilet (I spent so much time in the bog that I thought about sending out change of address cards) my mum was very kind and said, 'there's alot of it going about' Why the fuck do people say that??? Am I meant to feel grateful? is it to make me feel like I'm joining some exclusive club where the healthy can't get in? fuck off!!
I ended up sitting up all night reading my book and watching tv, sunday was ok, I managed to eat some tea, (I went over 36 hours without eating, which is amazing for me) I went to trels and drank water.
So all in all an eventful weekend.
I've been to the doctors about my shoulder, (I know this is all news to you, but I have a really painful shoulder and pins and needles in my finger tips, I've had it for a couple of weeks) any way the doctor says I've got Tendonitis, I've got some pills to take but if they don't work then I'll have to have an injection into my shoulder which the doctor says, 'hurts like fuck' so I hope the pills work, but I've been warned that they may make me throw up or upset my tummy, so..........fun times ahead.
I'm off camping next weekend to Lake Coniston (That's in the Lake District) I've been loads of times before and it's a fantastic place, it's gonna be ace this time because there are about 10 of us going, I've got my tent out in the garden and it's getting a good airing, I'm impressed with it really because I've not used it for a couple of years and it's not rotton or mouldy, I found my telescopic fishing rod, abit of line and trels got some floats, so I need to get some hooks and a fishing licence and hopefully I'll have abit of fun fishing too, Plus it's a good excuse to fuck off down to the lake on my own when everybody is pissing me off!
Well I think that's enough information for now, if you want to know more then come to Harrogate, buy me a drink and listen to me talking at you.
Take care people, I'll probably update after the camping weekend, tell you how it was, who attacked who, who's still talking to each other........... And how my shoulder is doing, (don't lose any sleep over my pain, but put me in your prayers)
toodle ooh my friends.
This is not goodbye, simply Au Revoir.
