QPR Football (Soccer) Review

Go and watch QPR the best London football team( in the second division).

Current players include former alcoholic Clarke Carlisle , worlds biggest Nigerian Danny ***tu and Mark Bircham who's dyed his hair into blue and white stripes!

The ground also features the worlds smallest seats and a cat who lives there.

Equipment: Something to protect yourself while walking through Shepherds Bush.

Wimbledon Tennis Tennis Review

First two weeks in June are Wimbledon fortnight , and i being a jammy git normally get free tickets for Wimbledon. Which is a class day out for acting like a ponce and drinking Pimms.
The centre and No1 court tickets are pre-allocated but the other courts have tickets you can queque up for- HOWEVER, these are snapped up by the two week a year tennis fanatics who camp out on the bloody pavement to watch some overpaid English player lose to to a 14 year old from Paraguay.

In fact it's a good idea to avoid matches involving Tim Henman or Greg Rusedski unless you want to be surrounded by face painted Daily Mail readers screaming. Henman Hill is a meeting ground for the really sad cases , none of whom ever know anything about the game ,but just show to display a bit of patriotic fervour.

Still the bonus when one of them is playing is that the bar empties and might get a to watch one the legion of attractive Eastern European girls. I love tennis!
