I work half way up a mountain in a rainforest, so I'll be doing not much more than work - other than get very wet.

I'm not really into cricket as I don't know much about sandpaper. Hate F1 despite once working in it for a few years.

Ashton Gate has been rebuilt so haven't got the webcam to watch every three minutes.

No idea what to do. Other than watch us being linked with every Portuguese player on the planet and loads of players who failed to make it at places like Hull, Sunderland, Newcastle. Ou of interest why are east coast clubs so shite these days? Almost as bad as the Birmingham and Sandwell area.

Got two holidays coming up, and a couple of weekends away with the wife and kids. Other than that just work, and try and watch whatever cricket I can. Not a big international football fan anymore, but shall catch a few games. Will no doubt go to some horse racing too.

Going to Kenya for a couple of weeks. Will be working the rest of the summer, aswell as repeatedly refreshing Sky's rumour page to see who the latest world class superstar is moving to the Black Country.

Oh, and will be watching the World Cup... more bothered about watching Portugal vs Morocco than any of the England matches though.

World Cup, followed by visiting home in August. May be able to catch a game depending on how the fixtures shake out.

I'm off to Naples, Ohio with work and Vietnam.

If I end up in Ohio it fucks my world cup viewing up dramatically so in two minds whether I'm bothered about going or not, don't want to miss seeing Danny Welbeck take the piss out of the world.

Ohio? Poor bastard. I mean, Columbus is okay but...

Side note: you won't have any trouble finding the games, just a matter of the time difference.

Presumably, he’ll miss the games as he’ll be working rather than being able to watch them in the evening at home.

2 weeks in Fuertaventura with the tribe plus a sneaky 4 day golf trip to Portugal.
my lad has landed an apprenticeship from September so I'll try and spend as much time as I can with him before he turns into a bloke in his own right.
I had better do some gardening and decorating to keep she that must be obeyed quiet and then there's the World cup to watch, or at least the first couple of weeks anyway.
Finally, a few pilgrimages to Taunton to watch the Cidermen although I think we'll do well to stay up this summer :(
Golf, family holiday, cricket, World cup, golf trip, a bit of work at home and some more golf. Sounds good to me!

Going to Russia, think I'm mad
Weekends in Budapest, Cannes and various gigs will be nicer.
But not sure of enjoying a stag do in Benidorm, too old for that shizzle.

Never understood Bristolian sorts who go to Taunton for their cricket fix. Least of all Bristolian sorts that actually live in South GLOUCESTERSHIRE LA LA LA

Fair comment.
My dad took me to Glos and Somerset when I was younger and Zaheer Abbas didn't match up to Botham, Garner, Roebuck, Marks and Viv Richards. I've nothing against Glos but stuck with Somerset like a proper glory hunter. Just pure timing that Somerset had a team of stars in my formative years, that's all, a bit like City did when I was little I suppose.

Done the same. Went to San Jose, Santa Barbara, l.a and San Diego.
All worth a visit if you have never been before. Esp San Jose as it’s an ex hippy town full of interesting characters to have a beer with.

Yeah looking at stuff to do online and it's not looking too exciting to say the least. We're in Dayton so smack bang in-between Cincinnati and Columbus.

Bobbin's right though, I'll be stuck at work all day in the week. I think (if my workings right) the KO times will be 0800, 1100 and 1400.

Typical Welsh wanker.
At least England qualified FFS!
Why are you even here? You're a total wind up merchant.
Enjoy hating the English in your English subsidised principality.

Oh yeah, I hope panda pops are cheap when you're 'partying'.

Actually my lad, I'm of mixed nationality, my father is English and my mother Welsh. I also live right on the border, and for years I cheered on all the home countries. The reason I have turned off from England isn't due to me hating England per se, it's more the English FA and their ridiculous politics and fingers in to many pots. I'm here because I love football , and I have an equal joy of good banter. It's not my fault that you seem to have a sense of humour failure. Good effort shouting me down though.
