Alcohol, praying and girls’ football teams

Now I know what they do in the Asian Sports Field and it’s not sport. Didn’t see anyone over the sports field on my way back from work so headed over there and approached what I thought was a black cloth or binliner or something. Gave me a heart attack when it stood up and I saw it was a Muslim girl just getting up from having a bit of a pray. I’m not sure who got the biggest shock – her with me running towards her or me with her standing up in front of me.

Got round the other side of the field and there was a man on a bench having an illicit drink. I’m assuming it was alcohol and not a carton of Ribena he was surreptitiously drinking from a blue plastic bag.

F**k it then, I’m going to use the field whenever I like, at least I’m doing sport over there!

Went past the enclosed football bit and there was a girl’s football team playing. Will have to tell Gary, he’ll be straight over for a bit of a lech. Girls and footy, his favourite, and if there’s any redheads he’s going to be in heaven 🙂

Anyway, it was a pathetic effort tonight and gave up after 15 minutes and walked home. Maybe I overdid it with the 2 mile walk in the morning and the gym at lunchtime and attempting a run was just too much for my feeble self.

Aah, my lovely lovely neighbours have just brought round my fixed camera (it’d better be bloody fixed, anyway. Casio, grrrrrrr) that Parcelforce left with them. I think I forgive them for throwing meat in my garden when they had a BBQ.

  • 😀 claim the park! I have days where I can’t run more than 10 mins – odd?

    Hope your camera is ok, it probably was but if Parcelfarce have delivered it…it could be in 2 or more bits 😛

  • The camera is working but I’ve put it in its box, I’m too scared to use it now!

    At least I won the fight between me and Casio and they fixed it for free 🙂

    Don’t ever buy from Casio. Grr.
