Sunday activities!

in busy •  7 years ago 

Well the day didn't start as expected. Have been up since 7.30 due to a power failure. First reaction was, that it would be a general one, but because I did not turn back on after half an hour, my wife kicked my out of bed to check things out. I do expect that the power failure was caused by or the converter of the solar sells or the water boiler. These were the 2 only things that could start up around 6.30.

It will be a busy day today!

My tennis competition starts within 2 weeks, and having been done shit for the last, ehm, lets say 8 months. Maybe a little bit to optimistic about this guess. The last 2 years, the first time I did search for my racket, was the day before the start of the competition. Let's change this for once! So I will go play a double within 2 hours.
After that, we still need to do some easter related egg hunting!

And then the passive sports day start.
After the egg quest, we can watch the following sports:

  • cycling: Paris - Roubaix: for me it is the greatest one day contest of the year. The race lasts for 257 km and a little more than 50 km is covered by cobble stones!
  • F1: Let's see if McLaren can end up in the points again. But they will need some help from the other teams!
  • Golf: The final round of the Masters. See, if Rory can catch up with Reid.

Also looking forward to the result of the engagement league of Asher! Curious if I can clame back my top 10 spot in league 2!

In the mean time, I will also need to devote some time creating a new SBI contest. I will write more about it, this week, maybe today cause I will be looking for some help. It will have something to do with the upcoming world cup, hoping to create a competition which will result into lots of interactions between the participant!
Maybe even do a start with the post about the 10 commandments of commenting!

Have a good Sunday!
Peter

A hope weather will be nice for your tennis match. Whenever I was in Belgium, it was rain or cloudy :-)

Weather is oke but wouldn’t have been a problem because it is indoor. No reason to take a gamble in Belgium! Because yes it is mostly cloudy or raining!

Perfect 👌 I hope you will win today 💪

To bad, got my ass kicked!

Sorry to hear that. I like tennis but it is one more sport where you can not hit somebody 😁

And again you can! For sure in double. Easy targets, sometimes they are just sitting ducks.
I did even to manage it to hit my partner with a service 😂
Let’s see if my upvotes has increased in value, for another delegation today!

That was great service for sure 😀Point is to hit someone with available rules. If you play basketball or soccer, even if someone is better than you but he doesn’t like to play with constant pressure, you can beat him. If someone is better than you in tennis and golf, you can’t do much. Some mind games is all what you can do 😀😀😀

But mind games are the nastiest one there are. They could ruin a career. I really do like to play doubles in tennis. I do suck in it, but o man, I'm just great in the banter games!

I really don't understand why you have to wake up when the power is down?

Today we all have to drink a power drink. Which is a subtle hint that Max should win.

And normally I will end up in the top10 of the 2nd league today. As this is my first week of commenting a lot for my investigation. It should also be the first week that I end up in the top10 from the 2nd league.

Lets go Stoffel and Max.
Otherwise my ice cubes would have melted!
Hope you will!

when the revolution comes, people that even mention the word 'sport' on a sunday morning will be put against the wall and shot :-)

Oops. Probably will be at the first line!

Sunday is for lying about the house in your underwear all day, eating stuff that clogs you're arteries. Not throwing yourself round a muddy field in the rain at 7.00 in the morning :-) You won't live any longer, it'll just feel like it ! lol :-)

Had those days. When we didn’t have kids yet. They are up at around 7 o clock. Pff!
Always hace to drag myself out of bed to keepthem calm so that my wife could enjoy a sleep out. But most of the times one of the 2 has an early football game.

oh god, I remember those days, standing at the side of a rugby pitch in light drizzle in sub-zero temperatures, being glared at by a bunch of snotty clique mothers because I dress like a dirtbag, watching my bordeline retarded kid clump up and down the pitch like his skeleton is made entirely from knee joints...

(shivers)

Being involved in a team sport is hell!
No so much about the kids ut mostly the other parents. Always have to weight your words 😔
Rugby would be a great sport for the youngest one. He is a rock! The oldest already start crying during the fall 😂

I had a great satisfaction knowing that I was worth about 10 times what the other snooty mums were, and I made it myself, it wasn't handed to me by a rich husband or daddy.. I used to go out of my way to annoy them, dress as badly as possible, no make-up, talk like I was a crack addict. Ah, simple pleasures :-)

Yes rugby is a great sport for kids, helps toughen them up a bit, very good for team bonding skills as well.

:)
You know what it funny. I always thought that you were much younger than me, but after this conversation I doubt it. Not that it does matter, but it is strange how our mind can foul us.
You still could be younger though!

Hope you win/won today :)

Got my ass kicked! Didn’t play for 8 months so nit unusual. But it was worse than I expected.

But alteast you has fun :)

You are not watching the cycling race alone. @pele23 has already show us some though pavement from the track in his post. Hope to see some more pictures from there. At least he promised...

It was a good race. To bad I did miss some part because I fell a sleep :(

Sounds like a good day even though it started that way, you know, being kicked out of bed lol!

It was a good one! Even had a waterfun fight with the sons. Best moment of the day!

I would love to do watergun fight with the kids here but the weather has not been cooperating. It's supposed to be summer right around this time that's why I am looking forward to taking them for a swim also but it seems the cold days are here to stay and making them suffer with colds and cough. Ugh!

Here it was the first warmer day of the year!

That's great! Enjoy the warmer days ahead :D
