I know its a day early but Helen arrives tomorrow so i won't have time to update and sorry to disappoint all my loyal readers but the next update will now be in 2 weeks as i do little work on the internet when Helen's here as we try to get out and about. Update :- The website i use for this blog wasn't working properly when i first wrote this so i couldn't publish it but Helen is now here.
I would like to welcome my 4 new readers in China and hope your enjoying the blog, any chance you can send me over one of your cheap cruiser motorbikes? See, always seize a chance of a bargain LOL
So how are we all this week? All well i hope in the dull, wet UK. Its still crazy heat here, in the day its really hot still around 34-38 and at night a warm breeze so its pretty humid. Usually at this time of season it starts to cool down slightly but no let up yet but i reckon this year it will be a sudden drop in the night time temp, also we haven't had any storms this season so think we're due a big one.
Bar is still going 100 mph and have broken the record for August already so i cant ask for any more and the season could finish tomorrow for me as its been an amazing one, so thanks to you all who have visited and to all who are going to visit.
So as you know we had the World/Leeds connect 4 championships at the Oceanic this last week and would you believe it the world No.3 Cogga won it. What did i say in my previous post. There was a rumour of performance inhancing drugs being used but after testing we only found a slight trace of blood in his alcohol stream. Cogga won the connect 4 championship trophy which he has to defend every time he visits Zakynthos, the pricless Oceanic champions t-shirt and a cheque from the Bank of Oceanic for £1,000,000 (post dated for 2058, don't think i'll live till i'm 100 haha). A big thank you to the Leeds 16, Woody, Big Bob, Alison, Mandy, Eden, Bailey, Colby,Brenda, Dave, Jayne, Callum, Daz, Heidi, Chris, Carol and Andy, They made 10 days of my season a real good laugh and enjoyed all your company, Baileys and Mythos companies profits shot up during those 10 days LOL.
The champion in all his glory, Cogga.
Now don't get me wrong, i know times are hard back in the UK and companies have to cut back to save money but when i buy a tin of Heinz chicken soup i expect at least a quarter of the soup to be made up of actual chicken pieces, it doesn't say on the tin "chicken flavoured soup". So i was amazed that when i bought a tin and opened it up only to find 3 pieces of chicken, if you can call it chicken as they were that small. A kitten wouldn't even satisfy its peckishness after eating these 3 tiny pieces of pink whatever its meant to be. What you see in the picture was all that was in the bowl along with some flavourless cream. I was really looking forward to my soup as sometimes its nice just to have something simple. Please Heinz next time put on your tins a warning label "This tin may contain no or very few piece of a substance that is meant to resemble chicken".

So i have now had my confirmation e-mail about my live audition for Total Wipeout. I have to do a 1 minute presentation of myself in front of the producers of the show then its a 2 hour physical. BLIMEY, i've seen a few of the shapes and sizes on there so it can't be that hard a physical can it, lets hope not as these old knees creek more than a door in a horror movie LOL. Still haven't made my final decision on whether to go back for 3 days yet for the audition and the support has been amazing all saying "Go for it", its very difficult because of the business but on the other hand i'll never get this chance again. So i'm going to leave it till 6 days before the flight home to see how busy or quiet it is then decide but the season does start to slow down then but Sept is usually a great month for me, i'm gonna play it by ear. August would definately cover what i would lose for those 3 nights and i would be back open Sun the 11th Sept if i left on Thur the 8th but i'll keep you up to date on that.
We had St. Dionysios Festival this week and of course my favourite part, The Market for 5 days but i was very disappointed, they were still selling the same crappy trainers as they were 5 years ago, end of line Adidas and Nike Air Max all god gosh awful and if it wasn't those it was Apidas and Nicks. Got myself a lovely watch though, the seller said it was the only watch in the world like it, solar powered, he wanted 25 i said no and walked off, i went back later, he said 25 i said 10 he said no, i walked off, i went back later he said 20 i said 15, deal done 10 euro cheaper. Look out Lord Sugar The Apprentice may be the next show i aim for LOL.
If i do go back to UK for Total Wipeout then i'm even more excited about seeing our new home, haven't seen any pics of it but can't what to see it and have a sit in my comfy cuddle twister chair, i bloody hope the plastics still on it and no one elses bum has sat on it first, can't be doing with someone elses ass groove on it, it has to be moulded to my ass groove haha.
