I'm into my gyming, and have successfully lost a stone since returning home from uni for the summer. Apart from that I do enjoy the occassional piss-up, playing footy, putting myself through the season ticket experience at Stockport County and sleeping.

i work 4 onn, 4 off, so once ive recovered, i have always been in team sports.

recently took golf back up, (member of greenburn golf club) and play off of 18, but hoping to get down to 10,

i used to run a sat am team, (help anyway) and i ran a sun team for years, but im a retired footie player now. (shifts dont help)

i skippered my village cricket team for a few years, but i passed it over this year, and the new skip is clueless, i havent the same interest now, because of this, so im golfing tomoro instead !!!!!!

also just decided to cycle the 55 miles glasgow - edinburgh fun cycle in sept, for charity, so im doing 20 miles per week, cycling,

forgot how bloomin hard it was


my angel is 21 weeks gone atm, so im getting as much sport as i can atm. that may change however,.


so atm its golf, cycling, cricket in that order, not missing the footie being a celtic fan, (love the rest from it, consumes too much of peoples lives if im honest)

the busier i am, the less i bet on the horses, but ill always find time for the golf betting, as well as a soccer coupon.

i love the group racing, but tbh, the rest is all fixed, and a huge license to lose cash

Yep well said, took me a while to realise it but thankfully I have done now.

Stephen Gleeson Possibly one of our finest ever recent players in his first loan spell. His final game away at Hereford and the reaction he got afterwards is something I'll never forget.

As for this season, we've just been taken over after going into admin owing £6 million, and appointed Gary Ablett as our manager. We have no kit and only 13 players. Right now I'd take a decent season mate

I think using my money for poker and not betting is definitely the most sensible thing for me to do

Well done Pete, great stuff.

That should help with getting the little nippers a few new toys.

Interesting! I ain't been around for a while just the odd comments here & there so I'll fill you in on me.

I'm probably one of the oldest (in age) peeps on OH but I like to live, as they say, 'as old as you feel' so have it in my mindset that I'm around 25 which is OK until someone takes a photo of me that I see or I embarrass myself in front of the ladies!!

I'm a free spirit, ie unattached, having done the relationship/family thing I have decided its better when theres only me to answer to & I 'm as happy as Larry. being self employed works well too. I work very flexible hours.

In my spare time my main activity is golf. I play off 17 & play every weekend & try to get a few holes in during the week or if I can't do that I go to the range.I used to play cricket & footie too but called time on them. I like to watch most sports but my 'specialist subjects' are Golf & Motorcycling ( I used to race bikes too when I was much younger) & these are the two I specifically look out for on TV.

I have been on a fitness drive this year after too much booze & curries and I've lost 2 stone. I jog twice a week for around 3-4 miles & do some weights twice a week.

And thats about it. One thing I've found as I get older is that there never seems to be enough time so you young un's make the most of it while you are still young.

Dawg
