Not posted for a while....

And there has not been much to post about recently but now i feel there is.
Went to Wigan beer festival last week and i have to say there where some top ales.
Stand out ones for me where:


Allgates Groundhop day which is 3.8% and as the "tasting notes" say its a Well balanced straw coloured ale, easy drinking with a berry/herbal aroma!


Allgates Nightmare On Ale Street - classic porter,dark and rich - bursting with malt falvours - 5.2%

Strawberry beer ( don't now the name of the brewers)

Toffee Ale ( very nice i thought)- Fed up with fruit?,this ones got toffee flavour..

Hopstar - Smokey Joes Black Beer - 4% - multi award winning ale, dark and full of chocolate


and i tasted some Gayhakers West Country cider which was very good i thought ( even though i dont remember how to spell the name..)

I went with some mates and we all tasted what brews we each got and the ones that i thought were alreet was:

Empire Strikes Back - 4% , Pale golden hoppy session beer


The "tasting notes" were taken from the "Wigan Beer Festival 2009" booklet

Football front:


Latics one Hull City 1-0 with a Ben Watson goal. I may self did not go to the match due to work but was told that it was alright. Latics taken everton next Sunday which i should be attending. Its a fantastic old ground Everton the wooden seats etc fantastic.
I also should be attending the Wigan Robin Park fc game against AFC united this Tuesday. I have only got to go to one game this season against Ashton Town at home and i have to say i am looking forward to it.


Clothes front:

Not much since i have not had a lot of money but i should have a pair of Adidas Samba Supers coming through over the next few days which should be oreet.
And i also got a Blue Harbour blue/white s/s shirt and a black polo from Marks and Spencers in sunderland on my recent trip up there.

First time i have been to football...

In a month tomorow where the Latics will go against West Ham at home tomorow, when we played at Upton Park this year we lost 2-1 but was a fantastic day getting the train in from Luton to London ( the one with the massive steel work around think its kings cross/euston dont know) day on the beer etc...well tomorow we take them on at the JJB and I am hoping for 3 points and if we played like we did against chelsea then i feel like we will be able to take all the points. I hope that Valencia will be back into the starting eleven the korian player that has been talked about should be making his debut as well as mido may be coming back well i certainley cant wait and shall be taking my concoxion of pain killers to see my bad back thourought the game!
