2017 PART TWELVE 18/03 -- 24/03

Do hope you enjoyed the Cheltenham week, I sure didn't. Nothing really to do with finding winners it was purely a terrible week of no money, failed opportunities and ultimately failed to use my day off to enjoy the Gold Cup with my brother choosing instead to stay home and be miserable. With a trip to Ascot and Sandown together with them in the coming months I need to get myself together and back on track, this years is only a few months old but I am sliding down into old ways and the darkness that surrounds me is weighing heavily too.

So our week began with the end of the 6 Nations on Saturday as Ireland played hosts to the Champions England in Dublin. Turned into a fairly uninspiring and dull game of rugby though it was a well deserved win for the Irish 13 - 9. England just unable to get into the game and plenty of unforced errors meant that the display was not up there with the last 18 wins however the Irish will take the victory which put them up to 2nd in the table and continue to celebrate after St Patricks Day. 

AFC Wimbledon were also away facing Fleetwood on the back of a wonderful win last week against the pathetic plastic Franchise FC. Hopefully another win for us and a defeat for them will ensure that progress on and off the pitch is continuous. The game ended 0-0 which is still a decent point away against a team in the top four, another point closer to safety this season too.

Had an eye test on Monday which was an annual check up thing, not very comfortable but it's done now and can just on with the rest of the month now. The working week should be ok as we've plenty on and that keeps us busy so the time flies by. At least any worries I had recently about this seem to have been eliminated for the time being. Let's see...
