Day 101. Ownage & Peer Pressure!

One of the highlights of today was playing in a volleyball match for the first time in years. Our Bangor University team vs Wrexham University. When we arrived (2 Hours later) the campus was really nice, they have awesome sport facilities too :o)

VB Player 2 VB Player side note: inside the sports hall they had sprung wooden floors :oP Now players of the game know and appreciate that when you go from playing on hard synthetic surfaces to sprung wooden floors, it's like sweets to a low carber and hence why am talking about it. It was very nice to play there on such a surface, (softer on the knees and helps increase the vertical jump a tad).

Anyhow, basically we played 7 sets over two hours, so it was an awesome workout... but boy did we get owned (pwned) we lost straight sets. We went with a mixed team and with high hopes, but the team we faced had four Polish International volleyball players plus it was an all men’s team. So as you could imagine we got kained... Nonetheless I still had loads of fun...

Afterwards came the trouble though. As we drove back home, team members wanted to stop off at McDonalds... and you know what this would mean...! Basically everybody was getting food and eating around me, and me being one not wanting to be left out... ended up joining in too... doh! But actually I enjoyed myself as I slowly spooned down some ice cream. Yep the Toffee Oreo Mc Flurry ooooh so good :oD I mean bad :oS lol! We also had a few social drinks in the pub, but I was good here just by drinking diet Cokes.
