Dull Match, Decent Evening.

It was a lazy start to last Saturday. I’d risen late having been up after midnight watching The Traitors final on I-Player after getting home from Josh’s. I was too lethargic to even bother paying attention to my breakfast and ended up with over cooked eggs and bacon. The wholemeal wrap that they were going…

Brave The Shave, Brave The Rain.

Lazy start to last Sunday. Danny Wallace on Radio X was blasting out, which was an absolute treat. I don’t normally get to listen to him as I’m usually at the gym at this time of the week, but I’m currently having a break whilst the “go to the gym only in January” brigade get…

Bit Of Brekkie, Bit Of Curry.

My New Year resolution is to lose weight. Well I say that, I’ve been trying the last couple of months. To use boxing analogies, I’m currently Middleweight and have been dangling just above Light Middleweight (Super Welterweight for my American readers) for a while, so my aim is to drop down to that level. However,…

White Star Line Cruise To A Great Show.

It was Friday January 2nd. Back at work. I’d already had 3 days back after Christmas but it’s the first work day of the new year that jars with me a bit. January, and nothing to look forward to. Coupled in with an overnight sprinkling of snow and ice and there wasn’t a spring in…

Reasons For Admission To Walsall Wood.

Greetings. It’s been a while. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my month off from blogging but let’s get back to it. Did I do any of the other writing I was going to do whilst this was on hiatus? Of course not. Oh well. Last Saturday local band Reasons For Admission were playing at the recently reopened…

33 Years Of Lost Walsall Pubs.

Last year Craig and I were strolling into town and he asked how many pubs I’ve visited in my life. Well there is 1200 odd just on the 3 pub challenges that I’ve done, then I mentioned some of the local ones that closed before I started the pub challenges. So here is a list…

Gun Shots And Curry.

Friends of mine will happily testify that I am partial to sending out a random message. Sometimes I receive them like recently when Swill got in touch, admitting it was random but asking if I wanted to join him at a gun firing place in Leamore. I agreed straight away throwing in asking if I…

Eastleigh, On The Road To Wembley?

Last Sunday my beloved Walsall FC had our first round F.A Cup tie away at Eastleigh. A team I don’t believe that we have played before, who are currently mid table in The Conference, the top tier of non league and the division one step below us. Cup shock was written all over this hence…

Just 2 Reviews For your Delectation.

The Fingerpost – Norton Road, Pelsall. Reviewed 26/10/25. It was payday weekend, I was on the seated leg press in the gym and getting peckish. I decided to go and have a Sunday dinner and thought I’d give The Fingerpost a whirl as I hear the ongoing bridge work outside is being a pain in…

Walsall Food Reviews Again, Via The Number 10.

These reviews all come within walking distance of the number 10 bus. Thought it would be nice to have a bit of structure to one of these articles. Possibly the only structure I’ll get in my life anytime soon. Casa Gurkha – 125 High Street, Brownhills. Reviewed 30/09/25. I had an unplanned daysaver, sold to…
