OMG cant believe its been so long!!

Bloody hell its been ages since I last left a post here.

Anyway Kilimanjaro has been conquered last July and to date I've raised over £1000 for Nightingale House Hospice.

We've been away for a great holiday in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland.

Berni has finished her Masters and we had a lovely time up in Edinburgh for her graduation.

Lois has started year 2 in school and Molly has started her 2nd year in college.

And life in general has been chaotic !!!!!!

Home off Hols'

We are all home off our holiday to Malta now. We met up with our friends out there Pierre, Moira and family and they showed us fantasic hospitality, what a lovely family they are.

Glad to be home though, nen if it is bloody freezing here in Wales and was snowing for a while last evening.

Kilimanjaro July 2012

I'm off up Kili' in July so heres an up date, I've been out walking uphill and down dale as the saying goes. I've been out in Snowdonia and Clwydians get miles into the legs.
Anyway it was a lovely morning today so I set off for a couple of hours with Sid my trusted walking mate the jack russell! we went about 5 miles with a 1000ft decent/ascent done.

North Wales Crusaders v Toulouse Olympique XIII

Rugby League Challenge Cup 2012
North Wales Crusaders 28-10 Toulouse Olympique XIII.
Went to the match last night and it was good to see the real Crusaders turn up and play rather than the shambles we saw at London Skolars last Sunday.
It was a fantastic win for the team last night against a team that has been togther a lot longer than the few months that we have.

The Comitments in Liverpool

Last night me and my super special wife went over to the Liverpool Echo Arena to watch the Commitments concert. It was a brilliant night out with all the old tunes from the film totally enjoyed by the crowd.
The cast have all of course gained in years, weight etc and in the fella's cases lost in the hair dept', but they can alltill sing and put on a show well worth going to see.

"A rugby league club has put forward a team made up of fans while it goes about signing up professional players.
Wrexham-based North Wales Crusaders formed after the original Crusaders pulled out of the Super League in July, citing financial concerns.
But the new side had to name a provisional squad to meet a deadline, so asked fans to step forward.
A postman, teacher, lorry drivers and a schoolboy all posed for a "team photo" at the Racecourse on Saturday."

Crusaders Squad Member - Me!!!!!!

I got confirmation today that I am to be an original squad member for the North Wales Crusaders' . It was a once only chance to be one of the first to be officially logged with the RFL as a squad player for the new club in the new season 2012.
Well pleased that I got the number that I gave as my first choice too!!!
Cru' Cru' Crusaders.
