After one (accidental) pint in what will be by then 39 days, I’m looking forward to a good sup at Peterborough. Need to make sure I have a decent tea though or otherwise I’ll be chasing that last pint at daft o’clock and wake up with the absolute fear on Sunday. 

Do accidental pints not count? Piece of piss then. I can be a right clumsy cunt at times.

Took me a day or so to realise I’d even had it. Went to Miller & Carter last week and instinctively ordered a pint of Estrella. Only pint I’ve had since Barnsley away though.

I need a ‘stop’ button. Had a great time on Saturday pre match and then post match on the barge. The couple of pints at half time probably weren’t necessary. Should really have gone for food but carried on drinking instead. Ended up in an altercation with two blokes who were giving shit to a woman they seemed to know. Luckily I only ended up with my nose plastered across my face and nothing worse as I’m sure could have been easily the case. I still think it was morally the right thing to do in terms of even just disrupting them, but in pure common sense terms I was a fucking idiot to put me and my other half in such a position and certainly wouldn’t have done if I wasn’t pissed up. Hotel were fantastic patching me up and that. Lesson learned, I hope.

Sounds like it’s boxing lessons that you need.

Well done mate, rather live with a flat nose than lack of self respect for doing nothing

Appreciate that, cheers. Those that know me will testify that I won’t have intimidated them in the slightest and I just hope I didn’t make the situation worse for the poor girl.

I was there second week of January. It’s ok is all I’d say. Whatever ‘type’ of person you are you’ll find somewhere catering for you. Within a few hours of your first night you’ll find places you’d never go again and places you love. 
On our first night I went to a Karaoke bar owned by an old Fire Brigade mate. On our way back to hotel we passed The Royal Arrow pub which was advertising San Miguel at two pints for €3. Well, I say passed…

We went back a few times!
