Hello if any of you fancy sharing some of your out of tiling activities....... (No Gazz you cant include dogging) then tell us in here. If your kids are budding footballers, ballet dancers or shoplifters you can also bragg about it in here.

My boy has just started to get into football properly. He's 7 noe and i have been taking him to spurs games and trying to get him interested since he was about 5, but its only recently he's got the bug for himself and is asking me to play penalties in the garden rather than on Fifa 2007 on the bloody PS2. He's joined a soccer school locally on Saturday mornings, been doing it for about 3 months now . I only have my kids weekends as they live with their mum, and every time i go to watch him he seemes to have improved a bit more. I found myself shouting instructions to him from the side line this week like i was watching a pro game on telly, this is sad coz i remember my dad doing the same to me and think what a plonker. This week though i saw him make his first sliding challenge on one of the older kids who was alot better than the rest and i know its wrong but i couldnt stop a massive smile of pride beaming over my face when he took the ball clean and the big kid went 5 foot in the air with it. " That's ma boy" :) :) :)

I play sunday football for Broxbourne rangers reserves in the Mercury and Waltham league. This year we won the Reserve cup, but had a crap season other then that.
I love to get a round of golf in or two if i can, but its becoming more difficlut the more my mrs put's that thumb print on my head!!

My golf isn't great! I used to be alright but I haven't played as much in the last few years! I have decided to properly get back into recently and had my first ever lesson for 12 years yesterday.

What a difference! My grip was all over the place! I ache like buggery now mind! :sad_smile:

Turns 7 in a month and has asked for seson ticket to Notts Forest:cry_smile: So proud,definatley can't call us glory hunters anymore.(Nothing else left to get him anyway,already has Nintendo Wii and PSP)
Love taking my little boy to the football,first match he went to everyone shouting 'The referee's a W****r!'luckily he didn't shout that,it went quite then he stood up by himself and shouted 'Referee-YOUR A D**KHEAD!':whatchutalkingabout Everyone turns to look at him then me(women with disgust,blokes with a smile)didn't know wheather to smack him or hug him with pride.
If i get any time or money to myself then I go on the lash and speak to all the lovely young ladies and offer them a bed for the night if they feel a bit tired:wink_smile:
