It's Tuesday

2012-01-24T20:23:00.001Z

Well how are we all. I know it been a couple of weeks since I properly blogged. Well I am still in the pursuit of new tunes to kill at karaoke, or atleast get the words in the right bit, so that is the latest video. Well some of the jokes I have been reading have been better, but unfortunately they dont go on here. So it's two weeks since I was here. In that time I overtook the 30,000 tweets barrier. The quiz I haven't done as much but there is a quiz tomorrow night at the club. I hope the WWE starts to get even more interesting after this weekends royal rumble. I enjoyed it when you couldn't predict what was going to happen, but that hasn't happenned in a while. Yeah Jack Ryder, Daniel Bryan and CM Punk were popular champs (atleast for 1 night). Its getting a bit samey. I am glad NCIS LA has lots of the questions answered abotu Callan and we can get back to what is a great series. Hawaii 5-0 is still great going. I wonder if Steve knows what that girl from cia is upto (I dont think her departure was family related). NCIS Series 9 has slightly changed with Denozo memory problems in first 2 episodes of series 9 (which is expectable). Well a few weeks ago as well my roof has some tiles move. I don't think they have been fixed. I havent seen anybody from the council to fix it. On rugby the first XV still haven't won, but touch judging was fun on Saturday. This is the table.

It was also good to see rugby starting properly back up on Sundays with some of the older ones. The previous couple of weeks I just did an hours and a bit training and that was basically it. On Sunday we had midday and 2pm kick offs at Broomfield. It was my turn for bar as well. I hope all the Smith Family are as well as can expected after funeral today. I am still trying to learn even more about rugby the now, but that might have to wait for a future blog. My biggest pain of the week last week was roadworks. On the Tuesday we had Auchinleck Train Station, Auchinleck Road, Cumnock and at Lugar Street Cumnock. 5 minutes on a bus became 15 minutes. Not my favourite thing. Bye for now, even comment if you want to.

Rugby and the weekend

2012-01-10T00:25:00.000Z

Well after not having my computer all day, I decided to do a blog at this time of night. Saturday I was away upto Hamilton for rugby. Hamilton won 24 - 19, but we had lots of good performances during the game. Here are some videos taken on my phone, I need to show zoom to that particular person So we came back to Cumnock, I headed home for dinner and a bath and went back down to club. Here is a photo from Saturday night from Bonus Ball.

Saturday was busy up the street as well with Vendetta on. Didnt do much over there though. I also recorded Sportscene and yes the Auchinleck Talbot goal WAS ONSIDE, the assistant referee was wrong! Sunday I had 2 rugby things, but it wasnt a bad day. I now have in the past few weeks a couple of new tunes. No Regrets by Dappy. It was a surprise I wanted the Robbie Williams version, but suddenly got dappy, that was a very quick read. On Sunday I added Party Rock Anthem by LMFAO but I really need a good female singer to do the lady parts of the song. I just let the background run, I really need help for that one. So today I got up a discovered that my broadband wouldn't work. I checked my phone, the line was dead. I used my mobile and phoned talktalk automated fault line and phoned the council incase they paid me a visit because of no signal. I wasn't the only one in Auchinleck with this problem. I went to co-op later and they had no phone lines. Also with no wifi at home it meant not a lot was working. There was an auto divert for phonecalls to my mobile, but facebook, twitter, cumnock rfc website, email I couldn't use. Lets just say I have caught up on a lot of television today, I did like Wendy Hurrell documentary on a dry December on BBC1 London on Inside Out. I also got through NCIS LA, Hawaii 5-0 and 1st Sherlock and STV Rugby. Good luck to all the injured players. Last live programme I watched tonight was Scotland Tonight with John Mackay, he had a very challenging interview with 4 politicians, all at once. I felt sorry for John there. Tuesday will be the normal Tuesday with going to Cumnock after watching WWE Raw. You all have a good week.

followfriday for 2011

2011-12-30T10:09:00.000Z

Now I am doing a special followfriday blog for all the people who you really should follow. Firstly I am going to start with Fatbuzz, apart from their outtake video they have taught me a lot about social media including facebook, twitter which I use in all the organisations I use. I even have 2 QR codes for my facets, pity not many people read them. So even though I haven’t done the breakfast in a while I still do listen. So you can thank them for my other projects with CumnockRFC and CumnockTCs. Threefromleith gives me great tunes from a whole load of sources and Grant’s stories and quite good. They must take him some time to script. His podcasts sound nothing like my youtube videos or audioboos/soundclouds. Keep up the good work Grant. I finish the podcasts with thethumbcast who are funny, generally talk sense. BUT it is not for children. Now the first person you should follow who freely gives advice out and has a couple of thousand followers but still answers people, tourscotland. Sandy is the best. I used to list jokes on my blog but after some advice I do not. My blog is slightly more child friendly. If you want to know anything about Scotland Sandy probably knows the answer, or someone who does. The only celebrity I know really listens to my alternative point of view is John Mackay from STV News. As you will discover I cap several female presenters on currentbunsuk website but I nearly never get replies from any of them. John embraced social media even more this year and I get replies quite a lot, as much as my other followers. So Mr Anchorman thank you. Unfortunately for John Current Buns is for women. The next logical step is currentbuns. Back at the start of the year after I had got sky and years of seeing these caps and asked tgoatcapper (Michael) how I should do it. I did plan to buy a dvd recorder so I can put them on DVDs and cap from there, but I never got round to that. So I basically (much to some derision of some friends) I take videos from iplayer/stvplayer/youtube and make stills of them. So that is why I was classified as the New Scottish one who does BBC London (which is live) and Scotland. I realise Tgoat does a lot of other areas and his quality is a lot better so mine wouldn’t be used. It also helped (me) when BBC London changed it format and got travel and weather done by same person in mornings, which not everyone likes. I would talk about some of the people I cap, but I don’t think they will read this anyway. There would be 1 exception to the above being Hannah Bayman who is a weather presenter/reporter in Newcastle and has in the past replied to me. It was Paul Mooney I met when I bought the Look North CIN calendar. Martin who runs the site must get bored with me tweeting him I have caps of a particular person. I have never met the guys, but there 2 of the best I know. One other thing Tgoat runs a blog as well, which drives quite a lot of traffic to my blog, so thank you again. Now one of the things I like to do is interacting with others, that is where by #ff is based. I like replies to tweets. To that end the Ayrshire massive get some mentions. Acw86 _Alexham Weeyin13 Sunnythesurf Tookiebunten (and a bit further) EmployedJo Thank you. There is a pile others I know I have forgot, I know that, my apologies. I hope you all out there have a great Hogmanay, mines looks as if it will include a lot of Cumnock RFC stuff. There is also a pile of people I know as mates out there that have started using twitter, but I want to see how they get on with it. Bye from me the now. So if you don’t follow me I am Thomasc1973 on twitter, but I will check if you just try to sell me stuff (the accounts on locked), I am picky now.

Well the weekend

2011-12-20T10:10:00.000Z

Well lets go through last weekend. Here is the link to my facebook photos. I aint loading them twice. Wednesday started with going over to Ian's and giving him his 40th birthday present. On Thursday at the sun he sang tunes all night and I think had fun.

Friday I was around club with BT engineers and just chilling up in TC's later. I had fun that night. Worst bit was going to taxi office later than usual and so getting closing time rush, but we got home for a very good price. Saturday was my 38th birthday. I wrapped more xmas presents for Cumnock and then headed across to Asda for shopping and see minis bagpacking. I then got taxi home via precinct and watched some Heineken Cup at home. At 5.40 I finished watching Glasgow Warriors draw and headed down to rugby club for raffle and pre xmas parties. Had a bit of fun until I had to work in the bar for a short period (I didn't want to be doing bar, but got no choice for a short time). I am glad I didnt join the drinking games that was going on. At 9pm I headed upto Tc's and Vendetta were on. Got their 1st set and saw rugby mates over in royal before heading back across to TC's to see end. I got chineese after leaving but fell on ice (I hate that stuff), I didn't bruise myself. I got home at my usual time. Saturday was different to the usual Saturday. Sunday I got up at 10am. Got some stuff done before I had some visitors. I went across to Catrine for rugby training and that was good. Rab Donald gave me a new chair for the living room, he even pulled the heavy bit up my stairs.

Around 4pm I headed across to Royal Hotel In Cumnock for dinner. The lentil soup was very warm and not skinny. I then had roast beef with potatoes and veg and yorkshire pudding. I was going to have a sweet, but I was actually full. On Monday I saw mum again, got some things from her's and headed home before schools finished for day. At night I went to committee meeting at club.

This is this years xmas giving to us all (not for kids)

Fatherson @ Arches

2011-12-05T14:19:00.001Z

I saw these guys many months ago at Ayr and were really nice guys.

I did like them on facebook.

So I was surprised when I saw them on youtube as well and just watched their current video about The Arches.

So they said on their video their gig was a sell out, but then it was moved to a bigger area. This is the link to buy tickets. The gig is on Sunday 18th December. I am busy that evening unfortunately.

The guys are on BBC Introducing with Ally McCrae On Sunday 11th December at midnight.

Good Luck guys.

hello again

2011-12-04T15:49:00.001Z

How are we all out there. At 1.15pm when I got home, it hailstoned.

Well talks about what's happening with me. Its been a few weeks since i did this.

Rugby wise we had no games this weekend. There have still been a few functions thought. The 50th anniversary Sportsmans dinner was great. You had to be there.

Next Sunday the P5 and p6 are playing at Glasgow warriors vrs Helensburgh. Goodluck boys and girls involved. We have a mini midi committee meeting tomorrow and some of that will come up.

I had a load of presents at home for people at fife, and had planned to go last weekend, but games came up and I stayed (and it wasn't suitable for Fife people because of private stuff).

So on Friday I wrapped up the presents to go across and thought about going across on Saturday and coming back same day.

So here is the itinery of what happenned that day (24 hour clock)
0620 Got out of bed and put gas on (it had ran out overnight)
0635 Got Coffee
0700 Got bath and did all the usual.
0720 Got nice clothes on.
0735 Got Glasgow Bus (just in time).
0745 Text Terri (David might be in bed)
0855 Arrive Glasgow - went and spoke to RBS (yes open Saturday) about android app which doesnt work for me and a roll for breakfast.
0930 Left for St Andrews.
1145 Arrive in Cupar (they were shopping).
1200 Found them and had coffee and passed over presents. Also phoned nephew to tell him I was in Fife. (1 hour off bus)
1310 Left Cupar for Glenrothes
1330 Arrive Glenrothes, spoke to nephew David and gave him presents. It was a good chat.
1415 Left for Leven to see Sally.
1440 Saw Sally, Alex and Xander for an hour (total nearly three hours NOT TRAVELLING SO FAR) and handed over last presents.
1550 Left Leven for Glasgow
1800 Arrive Glasgow, get quick snack (im hungry)
1820 Got bus to Kilmarnock.
1905 Arrive Kilmarnock and wait for X76 down home.
2000 Home, phew!

So was I busy, wait I haven't finished yet.

So what do you do after a day like that.

On the Friday I got an email from Braehead Aerena, JLS had a second date on 24th April 2012.

I check the price and availability on ticketmaster. It was about £36 and there were seats left. Ya Dancer!

So I phoned up RBS Ticket Service (yes I get that).

This is the result:-

Event Details	Event Date	Qty	Cash-back Amount
JLS BRAEHEAD ARENA BLOCK * ROW * SEAT*	24/04/2012 19:30:00	1	9.65

PAYMENT DETAILS

			Amount
			38.6

(No I aint giving you my details).

So what do you do after a mad day in Fife, you buy an ex x factor act (which I dont watch (XFACTOR)) in April and after cashback not pay £30 (whose album I have on Spotify).

On Wednesday its lunch and its a couple of weeks until my birthday (38 YO).

So that is probably enough from me.

Bye!

Ayr Christmas Lights with Jai McDowall

2011-11-21T10:19:00.001Z

Well Sunday I went to Ayr High Street to watch the Christmas lights being switched on. I got there about 3.55 as McMan from West FM came on stage. I stood need to Bon Marche as it was just off where people were walking and under cover, even though it was dry. The first couple of singers were good. Non Jovi were having quite a bit of trouble singing. A man smoking next to me lit up when they wanted more participation, ah well. It was also good to see Frenchie from West Fm (the travel guy). Jai was amazing at the singing as proved by most of my youtube videos (when the sound went on my phone slightly bad for 1). I headed back to bus station, was going to get 6.35 bus, but it was packed, so I got 6.50 which wasn't. I got home and did rugby reports which I had been sent. So enjoy the blog (I hope).

2011-11-10T00:22:00.000Z

Well a late night blog from me. Tuesdays lunch was good. I had muscles, I dont know why, but I did. Next I had a minute steak with fries. It was good as well. The coca cola is still £2.10 per bottle. I almost feel like buying a pint of beer, but I dont. Then I went back to Ayr and bought some Xmas presents and headed back on 5pm bus from Ayr to Cumnock via Drongan. As you may see up the top it is Stuart Walker funeral in Cumnock Thursday 11.30am and so we were talking about that. Thats the bus some of us met Stuart. I headed straight to Cumnock Rugby Club as I wasnt getting one bus 5.40 and getting another one 6.20. I just went straight there. After training and club stuff I went to quiz and was RUBBISH at play your cards right. I got 3 goes and never got past first line. It wasnt my day. I also saw someone win money from a amusement machine afetr someone told me not to play it (it wasnt a small amount). I also saw during the day that the heineken Cup was going to be in Glasgow Wednesday. So at 9.50am I went to Glasgow on bus. Went along to Greaves Sports in Gordon Street and held the Heineken Cup for a few seconds. Greaves took a photo (but they havent put it on facebook yet). I took a photo with my photo, which is above. I then went and bought more xmas presents while in Glasgow and headed back home for 2pm. Wednesday was turning out to be a good day after Tuesday not really being. I then watched some telly, got some new tunes from Spotify and headed down to Cumnock at 9pm. Double checked time tomorrow and then went and got a pint, the amusement machine won for me tonight. I am definately happy tonight. So that is about it. See you all soon.

The weekend

2011-11-07T18:29:00.001Z

Hello, well I will start here: thats the fireworks I saw Sunday night in Cumnock at Murray Park at 6.30pm, if you follow me on twitter the grass had less people on it than at the roadside beside Caponacre. Right so I went to Isle of Mull on Saturday with Cumnock RFC. The Oban fireworks was the night before, so we couldnt miss them. Cumnocks fireworks were 30 minutes but I wasnt filming that much, I wanted to enjoy them. I aint going to talk result. Today I took a trip down to ENGLAND, Carlisle. The BBC Look North children in need calendar is for sale and Paul Mooney was selling them in centre of Carlisle, so I headed down on train to buy 1 from Auchinleck.

Now I think Paul is about 5ft 8, 5ft 10in. I am 6ft 3 so I had a height advantage, I am the bloke that came from Auchinleck in Ayrshire, if he can remember big 30 something me. I forgot to get a picture with him. So if I can travel to Carlisle then probably the rest of you can buy one online at this link. Right thats the sale pitch over. I also took a few photos when I was in Carlisle

and now we are home. Now tonight is my mini/midi committee meeting at 7pm, so I had better disapear, tomorrow I am away to Prestwick, after watching WWE Raw.

Fireworks at home (not mine)

2011-11-04T21:10:00.000Z

Just some fireworks from tonight.

Warning, funny adult video

2011-11-04T11:37:00.001Z

Right I have kept this area clean for a while, but this video is funny.

Tookiebunten (go visit his site here)

Tookie put this on google+ (I have 37 people who circle on my google+

So I know I have done jokes for a while, but in this case, you have been warned. I understand 95% of it myself.

Right other stuff I have been doing, well tomorrow the 1st XV goto play Isle of Mull, so I have been checking what we can do in Oban while we are around there and trying to make sure everyone knows what time we are leaving (its early).

So I hope Sean Batty gives us a good weather forecast for Saturday

Now unfortunately Sean wont get posted to currentbunsuk where I do other ones,
Thats Eleanor Bradford and Stefani Dailly, go to the site (hopefully) to get more.

My last reminder for today is have a great fireworks weekend (wherever you go to see them and keep safe) and dont forget all my sites that I have something admin to do with (not telly) are on my QR code.

Bye for now.

Think its time I came here again

2011-11-02T10:33:00.001Z

Well hello everyone, I know I went quiet slightly there but I had my reasons.

On the rugby front I was glad the minis beat Ayr on Sunday with a good performance. I am slightly more educated on rugby now after doing a rugby ready course in Hamilton.

On Saturday there the 2nd XV played Dalziel 4th XV, unfortunately I forgot my usual tracksuit bottoms and wore my years. My jeans got soaked to the skin. It was horrendous. After the game, I changed into shorts and got in a taxi home to get changed.

The Halloween party in rugby club looked a very good success. I disapeared upto TC's Bar on Saturday night for Johns Halloween Party. I knew I had rugby the Sunday, so I got the last bus home (and watched Indian GP Sunday morning fresh). I have also been helping TCs by doing some setup of its facebook and twitter pages. Go like and follow, I hope we get as big as James Bunten's facebook profile.

Some of you will notice on my blog I have a Kimtag.

It should all the links I work with.

Otherwise on telly, Terra Nova is ok, but not 60 million that was spent. Thw wrestling is stepping up with Survivor Seies the next PPV, Finally the rock is tag teaming with John Cena to beat Awesome Truth. I will see you all soon and take care of each other.

@darkflare and other ayrshire peeps

2011-10-20T12:30:00.000+01:00

Right Iain has put this post out.
This is some from his entry:-

Possible subjects for the blog could be:

general website advice
getting started with social media
social media branding/visual identity tips
web design process (on new sites)
logo development process

I like the first three as especially discussed at twitayr, not everyone out there uses the tools well. People tend to need advice about websites, social media is needed by most companies unless there coca cola or someone that size. Some big organisations dont get social media.

For example (but not the only one) is Prestwick Airport and its twitter feed

They really dont bar 1 example talk about flight information for itself, it could make itself a lot more useful or really a lot. Look at the amount of people following Glasgow Airport and the info. So you can see you can do social media in various ways, sometimes just for piecemeal.

I dont know how many will want to learn web design processes for new sites or developing logo. Branding is important though. I know it took me about 20 hours initially to learn a useful amount of web design, so I am not sure people will want to sit around for that.

I am sure Iain you know what kind of pricing you need to deploy and seeing as this aint my job doing it for other people, I cant really help.

Other guys and girls out there, give Iain your thoughts. Iain is on twitter and even google+

Audioboo and other things

2011-10-13T17:14:00.000+01:00

thursday fae me (mp3)

Well that was the audioboo. Then a few minutes later I got an email about micro rugby, which gave me 20 minutes of web work.

Then Ian text me, I dont think I need to say anything about that (your not getting it anyway).

I got across to shop to buy milk, I got my breakfast and went to rugby. The event went quite well. I ended up refereeing 6 games (yes I am slightly tired, but was wearing my boots). I was still around there until 3pm. I saw Brian Loy in the precinct and he said Ann was away for flu jab, which I had forgot to get. So I headed across to health centre and asked for my flu jab. I left there 4pm after getting it.

I have had my dinner and I am back at club at 7pm (not the usual time).

I hope you all have a good weekend, even though I know some out there wont.

Bye for now.

Soundcloud fae Sunday night

2011-10-10T08:17:00.000+01:00

Morning, I took a few recordings of people singing in TC's. Thankfully I didn't record myself.

Telly Stuff

2011-10-05T14:12:00.001+01:00

Hello well with CurrentbunsUK moving I though I better load some photos out there that I have done today.

First the lady who just came back Judith RalstonLaura Haldane and Lisa Gallagher

Enjoy.

It's Wednesday again, this one is going to be long.

2011-09-28T10:33:00.001+01:00

Hello guys, how are we all doing. Its been another bus'ish week for me.

Wednesday afternoon lunch was good, but it wasn't cheap at Elliots in Prestwick. Usually I eat my dinner in about 5 minutes. When I go for lunch with Frank we spend 2 hours there. Wait time was ok but no menus were on the table. The mushroom soup I was was good temperature. About 7/10.

I then hadsome pasta which didn't look much at first. It actually was. I din't add chicken to it but was still good. 8/10. The staff asked if we wanted a sweet, we said no but had coffee. It when I saw the price and my mates confirming that was expensive which maybe put me off. I don't think I will pick to go back to Elliots.

I came back to Cumnock that night and my team lost the quiz. There was only 2 teams there.

Thursday I was down in club in morning and that went smoothly. I also watched some telly that afternoon. Went to the training as usual and spoke to all the usual people I speak to.

Friday I was busy in Cumnock in the morning and had fun at night as Blair has moved to TC's Bar after The Sun Inn changing over.

Saturday wasn't the usual Saturday. I watched England game of rugby world cup and they played very well. I am not an england supporter, but I had to admit that. I then headed to Ayr (during New Zealand game). I bought some clothes which seemed fine and a card for my dads 75th Birthday. My mum phoned me at 10.45 when I got my breakfast in Ayr (I only had a coffee when I got up that morning).

I then got 11am bus home to Auchinleck, only 1 problem I had card and present and wrapping paper but NO selotape as I discovered when I tried to wrap it. So I headed food shopping and got sellotape there as well. I got home about 1250, watched some football on Sky and SAT DOWN.

After 2pm I got a bath and got ready. Now most of the family had been invited to a birthday party. Now understand I didn't pick who went and who or not to tell about it. You will understand shortly why I typed that.

I headed down to Cumnock, corrected mistakes on televisions and headed to Lochside House Hotel. I took a number of photos on my phone, but sorry they aint going here. Its upto the person I photographed to request them on here!

The food was well presented. I had the scotch Broth which was quite good. 7/10 Now my family think I am turning slightly into a food critic. I couldn't possibly comment! I then had Haddock (which was ok) 7/10 with Frozen based chips, which wernt too warm (4/10) with salad. Overall it was 5/10. I can't fault the presentation though. I then had sticky Toffee Pudding. Great temperature, well presented 8.5/10. Overall it was quite good but I am picky when it comes to chips.

We went back to mums for a few hours and I headed down to TCs and lsitened to DJ Jon which was great as always.

Now Sunday, I got up for Scotland game, but someone had been informed about the party and they were not pleased, to put it politely, so between 8.30-9.30am my phone rang 4 times, people asked what I was doing and I said TRYING TO WATCH THE RUGBY. What i could see Scotland were still making mistakes and as we all know it did cost us in the end.

I then headed down to Micro Rugby at the club, to serve coffees and teas and cans of juice. There was a game planned in afternoon but that was cut short. I headed home and relaxed. Monday was a quite day for rugby (phew). I had most of my reports the Sunday night, which is when I posted them. I watched lots of telly and took quite a number of caps including

Tuesday was a bit busier. Got up watched WWE Raw and thought, usual, usual.

Then headed to CHIP appointment and that went fine. No hard questions. They are at Visions next Thursday 6th October.

Next got down and gave Stuart and family tape (hello). Did my usual messages next and headed home for midday. Then I started on World Cup Breakfast this weekend including poster and emails.

Headed back to Cumnock and went to Visions Gym. That was fun. Headed across to club and helped Bobby sort out drains. I have a poster to do to make people put nothing down those sinks. I DID NOT LIKE THAT IT.

Headed home and had dinner before heading back down for training. Lats night The Plamphs won the quiz after beating Sangria in tiebreaker. After that headed across to TCS and chilled. It had been a long day.

This morning woke up at 7.20am and have been busy as you can see at the top capping Wendy Hurrell.

I told you this would be a long blog, but I needed to do this one. At this point I would normally put some more music on, but the LaFontaines have no more clean videos I can use, so try this one.

Hello, quick one today

2011-09-21T10:14:00.002+01:00

Right firstly, well done to Cumnock RFC 1st on winning Saturday and the under 15s proving they can run faster on Sunday.

So far its been the usual rugby week. Saturday was busy. Si and Angie came but I didn't get much chance to chat because I was busy with rugby stuff.

Alex Dunsmuir silver wedding was very nice, even if I had to drink lager because beer wasnt good in Dumfries Arms.

Sunday was more rugby, Monday was quick committee meeting, quite enjoyed getting my points across. I even did some website work when I got home.

Tuesday was the usual. It was also announced that james Bunten is away from The Sun Inn, Cumnock. It is a shame. he tried his best. It wont be the same.

Today I am going to Mauchline to do stuff quickly, then away to meet Frank in Ayr for lunch. He is deciding where we are going. Its the rugby club quiz tonight.

WWE Night of Champions wasnt any big shakes. We kinda knew what the results would be. Only trouble is someone who reads my blog is still to see it, so that is where I have to end.

The picture up the top is Victoria Hollins and Wendy Hurrell, which is why I remembered to have my pc on before 8am.

I also sent naz from sky news a video of the weather out there.

So you all have a good day out there.

and dont forget to keep listening to good music

2011-09-11T19:41:00.000+01:00

Hello guys, no blogs from me on ages and now I do two in one day.

John McBlain who is the best DJ I know and I listen to in TC's Cumnock is a Director of Project Bandcamp has set up a wordpress site and hopefully Alex Hamilton is helping him. Alex has a wordpress of his own (pretty please Alex). Unfortunately this is blogger and I haven't used wordpress.

So John asked me what I thought. I gave him it straight (thats all I am going to say) but I want to see if anybody who visits my page has thought about the wordpress site

I have left only 3 links on my favourite blogs and Project Bandcamp is one of them. I am sorry to those I did list, I will reinstate that soon. The other link gives me my most traffic so I aint removing that. So give them some feedback.

Hello guys, its been quite a while since I did this, so while I have Ireland and USA on in background I thought I better do a blog and yes I will talk rugby.

A couple of weeks ago the rugby club got painted. Unfortunately I was there Monday night, Tuesday night, Wednesday most of the day, Thursday until 7.15pm (which was followed by leaving rugby and getting dinner). The Coach Stevie phoned me at 8pm asking me if I was coming back down. I said NO.

That Friday (2nd) I got up early to put gas on my meter downstairs. It came up faulty. Scottish Power line wasn't open until about 8am so I phoned after that and they said it would be four hours, I said well why do I come back at 12, then it would be 12-4 so I said I would take the morning. An engineer came at 2.05 and put in a new meter. Phoned up scottish Power to get new card and to put the money on from old card. That all went well and I got the card the next day. That was quick. I went down to the club after that and the guys basically finished the painting (somebody else had opened for them). I caught up on some telly that morning.

Now the week before the rugby lost to Jordanhill P and Jim Morrison got us a bus to go to Loch Lomond. He gave a great rousing speech at half time but we were already 4 tries down. it made for a better performance by far. We (tober) has got some of the older players playing with 1st XV and it is changing the way we are playing, I think for the good. Well we got back around 8pm and we all had fun that night in club and Cumnock.

Next day (Sunday) we had midi rugby so I was down at club 11.30am. I had only got up 10.30am so that was good timing. The S1/2 won at home, the minis won away as well, it was a good day. I got home around 6pm and because David Kerr wasn't at Loch lomond game I had a match report to write. You probably guess I am not a journalist. I hadnt even took notes during the game. I did the best report I could with the score and got a couple of people to check it. It was fairly fine. So then I just had to get the other reports.

Monday I had a mini midi meeting to quite late until I got out lift after 10pm for fire brigade back at Auchinleck Community Centre. I wonder where we will be voting next year in east ayrshire elections, because it wont be there.

Tuesday night was heavy rain so the boys did really well with their runs, Wednesday was heavy rain again and I got mud on my jacket and jeans soaked and washed them when I got home. Thursday was usual day. I got tracksuit bottoms for rugby and old jacket and it didn't even rain, typical. My boots are always at training though.

Friday was quite (my dayoff rugby). I watched NZ game. I really dont like the amount of adverts that ITV are using. I was up for Scotland vs Romania (bad idea). I got up around 8.30am, got milk, gas, electric and watched England game. Cumnock was playing at 3pm. We also had family fun night in club last night, it was good. I eventually got to use spotify for tunes after Stuart Hunter had finished his stuff. I finished with Dr Jon is Tc's and had a great supper last night.

So you can see why I haven't been blogging.
