What fills the void for you in the summer months?

I was just asking people in the office what weirdos that don't go to football do on a Saturday. None of them were able to give me an answer other than ' not a lot'.

 

Luckily I'm off to Norway at the end of the month and the Euros with England so I've still got 4-6 games lined up over the summer.

A colleague of mine is into Speedway do Poole are her summer sport. Guess this year it'll be the Euro's and the olympics, but those summers without a big event really drag from a sport perspective.

 

Especially since cricket went to sky.

Gardening/shopping/diy and what ever other evils the good wife can come up with. The Nippers season is over to so I'm going from saints on a saturday (most of the time) and sons tyro games on a sunday to no football at all. No doubt I'll try and watch the euros on the telly...but international football doesn't bring the same excitment levels as club football for me.

Going to give Speedway a try this summer too, looks decent.

 

As much as i miss the football it is nice not to blow your wages every saturday for a while.

 

Belgium at home in May at least.

in no particular order;

 

worrying about when season tickets go on sale

worrying about how much season tickets will cost

worrying about when the new kit will be released

Worrying about Cortese selling

Worrying about Cortese not buying enough players early enough

Worrying about players leaving

Worrying about why there is no news on the offical site

worrying about who other clubs are signing

Looked into flying out for the Sweden game, best price i could get was £700 for indirect flights and hotel. So that plus beer, food, match ticket, wig, face paints and St George soilder outfit was over £1k for 3 nights, i'm out. Although still hoping to get in on our corporate sell out jolly to that one.

WizzAir - £297 return, direct flights, 14th - 17th.

 

Took 30 seconds to find. You're not very good at this travel malarky are you? Have a look on Skyscanner mate.

Really happy that we are up, and I can enjoy the summer.

 

Holiday x 2

trips with the kids

Watch the Euros.

 

I am in no hurry for it to come back, but by August I am sure I will be biting at the bit.

 

I am really looking forward to a stress free summer with the family, and not have to worry about results, tables and fixtures!!!

You dont go anyway though do you?

 

However this is a fantastic place to visit during the summer. I dont have kids but went last summer a couple of times and will most certainly be visiting it again several times this year.

Must admit I prefer the winter as in the summer I have no footie to watch, stress about, train for or play, no skiing and no teaching. At bit of a loose end really..

Do you play? Honestly, i'd never have known!!

 

SHE CANT SEE THIS. :lol:

Although they favour the strangely named Cillit-Bang in those parts.Strangely efficient stuff as well, used to be banned in France god knows what they put in it then.

 

I am reliably informed nothing comes close to Ajax lemon cream cleaner.
