Part 4
Pre-season training continues and it’s party time!

After my exciting trip to the gym and subsequent personal training session at ‘The Blue Oyster Bar’, I decided to take it easy this week. I don’t want to peak too soon, do I? (My wife helpfully pointed out that I peaked around 1993 and its all downhill from here).

I took it easy by watching the NFL championship games and continued my measured intake of fluids by consuming five bottles of Budweiser. This may go some way to explain how I was watching New England ease past the Colts when suddenly time expired on the Eagles to lose the game. Confused, dribbling and smelling of wee, I staggered to bed.

I didn’t stay upset for long and I was soon looking forward again to the regular season starting. Then, today, to my surprise a letter from Mr.Burns himself, John Farmislow arrived. IT’S A PRE-SEASON bonding party at a nightclub in Etruria Road, Hanley. I could barely contain my excitement, especially when I read the awe inspiring words, "it may be possible to show a game video but it will have to be shown early" - I can’t wait!! Watching old Britball tapes is SOOO much better than getting shitfaced and ogling women.

I’d like to take this opportunity to point out that when voting for ‘Offensive Lineman of the year’ my name is spelt Gideon Beddows.
