A long delay on this and all blogs which will become more clear as the catch-up goes on but July saw the mix of football and RL attendances combine while gaming hit new highs.
Sport
Football wise, physical attending continued with Skem U in pre-season on the road and the opening trip of the month being a 6-0 win at Sefton Athletic before a 3-2 loss to Widnes and 1-0 loss to Accrington Stanley U23s both coming at home.
Physical attendances continued in RL but after a delay due to a virtual attendance with no away fans permitted at the away trip to St Helens which saw Wigan lose 24-6. Attending resumed with a Huddersfield Giants double as Wigan won 16-12 at home before an adventure on both bus and train later that week with a friend saw a 14-12 success up at the John Smith's Stadium.
Joy continued with a 25-12 home win over Wakefield Trinity before what became the final away trip of the season (no travel for the remaining games) at Warrington Wolves saw another bus/train adventure and a 21-8 defeat.
The Women extended their perfect start with a 36-10 win away to Featherstone Rovers Ladies before losing 28-6 against Leeds Rhinos Ladies. The only attendance was a virtual one for a 12-4 loss to York City Ladies which was played at Odsal on a Monday evening.
Life
The Countdown Weights reached began the month on 119 per round and ended with 121 in progress the month ended with the next milestone of 400,000 lifts reached midway through the month itself which became the best month of all-time at 38184 beating the record of 37864 from March.
Updating on the friends front, more exits of short-term ones and despite reaching the wonderful 2 year Friendiversary with my long-term friend, our connection has lessened with her message/post replies becoming fairly rare still. The main positive from June of a new friend has seen the connection grow massively so good news on that front.
Gaming
The gaming boost continued with a massive new record month which included a run of updates and new additions leading to a total of
378 unlocks for the month and as always more details can be seen in the
Xbox Achievement Adventure July Summary.
As the month has seen a mix of home and being out and about, highlights below are boosted by some adventures.
