It seems milestones are like London buses for me as there have been
few recently and then three pop up in the space of a few days but more
on that later on.
Tuesday began with the continuation of the Only Fools boxset while watching Stallion83's stream of Kinect Sports Rivals which inspired me to confirm my order for the title as it looked amazing and the afternoon saw more Only Fools with the evening featuring a trip to watch Skem v Worksop. Due to a future clash on Easter Monday with a Warriors game, this would be my last home league game this season and what a way to end as Skem came back from 0-1 down to win 2-1 against the division's top scorers.
Wednesday began with a milestone as I completed the Windows 8 version of FIFA14 which has become my first ever FIFA completion after seven years of different versions. Afterwards, I watched the final episode of Junior Paramedics and the first in a new series of The Call Centre and then off to bed. I did my weekly weight and Xbox update and had a long discussion over the phone about my upcoming project in the afternoon, I continued the Only Fools boxset and did my weekly Super League preview with an interesting series opener of 'Invasion of the Job Snatchers' ending the night.
Thursday began with an update for Windows 8 so had some music on and caught another of Stallion83's streams before bed. The morning started with the ending of the Only Fools boxset and the start of the Porridge one with the materials for my project arriving in the afternoon (secret until next Wednesday) and setting them up into the evening with a session on PvZ GW ending the night alongside the Hull v Hudds game and some American Dad.
Friday
saw the beginning of my two-day project and some blogging and magnet
sorting in the early afternoon before the debut of Kinect Sports Rivals
on the Xbox One which saw my second milestone of the week as I unlocked
my 5000th achievement which came after winning a bowling match and led
to a celebration after nearly seven years of Xbox gaming. The evening
saw me got to Wigan v London and a mixed game ended in a Wigan win with
the usual takeaway and bus journey home ending the night.
Saturday began with the consuming of my takeaway with Gogglebox and some note checking from the Wigan game before bed with Game Changers and Soccer AM starting the morning and a letter from HMRC arriving saying I had unpaid tax even though I had sorted it months ago so after a 15 minute wait on hold, I was told it had been an accidental posting which I wasn't too pleased about but let it go.
The afternoon featured Football Focus and Soccer Saturday with the Catalan v Widnes game at 2.30 during which i wrote up my Wigan match report and then a session on PvZ GW with a friend online. The evening saw me watch Wigan v Arsenal with the Latics sadly losing on penalties and then caught up on the latest episode of Da Vinci's Demons and ended the night while Xbox blogging with Epic Movie in the background.
Sunday began with the resuming of my two-day project and Goals on Sunday ahead of an exciting afternoon of football where an emotional Hillsborough memorial was the prelude to a stunning 3-2 win for Liverpool over Manchester City which a spine-chilling ending as Gerrard rallied the troops for the title run-in. I listened to Fylde vs Skem in the Doodson Cup final which sadly saw Fylde win 1-0 and Swansea V Chelsea saw the title challengers come out on top with some blogging and a great MOTD 2 and The Goonies bringing the weekend to a close.
Monday
started with the travel and ticket booking for the trip to Leeds in
early May with the afternoon beginning with the collection of my project
materials as they were returned for analysing with the results coming
on Wednesday. I wrote up my Liverpool, Premier League and FA Cup blogs
and within minutes reached my third milestone of the week as my goal of
20,000 blog views was finally completed. The evening saw my usual Monday
night TV viewing with the week finishing with the amazing Walk On
documentary.
Sportswise, it was a nice change to have all three of my teams win in the same week and though Skem losing in the Cup final was a negative the comeback earlier in the week meant it wasn't so bad of a week for them.
As I mentioned above it was a momentous week in terms of My Xbox Achievement Adventure as I reached the milestone of 5000 unlocks with the next target being to get more in 2014 than I did in 2013 with a new long range target of 7500 set.
This coming week is a packed one with two Warriors games in four days with the trip to St Helens on Good Friday followed by a home game against Bradford on Easter Monday, The Hillsborough memorial later today will be emotional even though I will be viewing only on TV with Liverpool's next game at Norwich on Easter Sunday so another TV game. Also the second part of my project takes place on Wednesday but as yet information is sketchy so will be detailed in next week's post.
As I write on the April 15th,I feel this message is a fitting end to this post - 25 years ago today, 96 Liverpool fans went to an FA Cup semi final at Hillsborough and never came home. Remember them always.
