Despite the prop bet, not sure I can not play this comp, just too much value and a million gtd is niceeeeeeeeeeee. See how the next couple weeks grinding goes, the prop might already be a FAIL by the time it comes around.

It's been a fun week, I wouldn't even like to guess how much alcohol has been consumed, lets just say lots. It culminated in a late night on Friday that ended in me supposedly dancing in a friends house in my boxers, there is a decent chance this was partly due to me bringing a bottle of Jaeger to the party and suggesting we play Fuck the Dealer (great drinking game), I have no recollection but most likely it's true. I then woke up on the couch at mine with my jacket and shoes still on, it was 10am Saturday so I snap ordered a taxi, somewhat still intoxicated, went to my nearest Subway for a footlong steak and cheese, wolfed that down then went back to sleep for a bit, as you do.

My body was pretty battered by yday but as it was my Brothers bday on Thursday and he was having a party I had to get back on it, so I went to the pub first for a few liverners, got retold stories of my antics from the night before, japes, ordered a pint and after a couple of mouthfuls accepted that my body just would not accept anymore Lager for a little but so I give it a gentle encouragement with 2 or 3 Kopperbergs and as anymore would result in very likely heartburn it accepted the change back to lager. By midnight I realised I was at the point where I was just too tired to even get drunk and so I headed home by 1am.

Cheltenham was quality although Kauto pulling up was pretty disappointing, I was freerolling the £200 bet from early luckboxing during the week so wasn't too fussed about the money but it would've been great to see him win, nevermind.

All in all it was a really good week, back to the grind next week for 10 days or so now and probably staying off the drink throughout, time to grind.

I wasn't sure I could still hack it after my poor showing recently with 2 or 3 day hangovers, #lovethedrink.

This is quality, Ribery & Toni Kross played rock, paper, scissors to decided who would take a pen at the weekend.

Love it.

Hmm, think I could take Cos' job, turns out it wasn't a pen as reported by the bbc but it was actually a freekick, still com though.
