The Masters Jan 11 - 18, 2015

It was even tougher when I weighed myself this morning. I put on more weight this week than I did over Christmas.

Time to go back to boring food and exercise.

Oh my...now that's not good And indeed...boring times alltogether when the snooker is not on Just a week or so to go before the start of the German Masters though...

Happens every year. I have a week off work for The Masters, coming right after Christmas. And my takeout and beer consumption increases drastically. So does the number on the scales.

Time for some new scales But yeah, I see what you mean. A bit of a double-whammy. Looking forward to the German Masters are we?

Yeah, I am. But it falls in the few days where two of my friends have birthdays, which is a bit of an arse being that it's only five days long. Hopefully I'll be able to catch a couple of games on Eurosport.

My next big thing is I got tickets to the Semis and Final of the Welsh Open. (So more fried breakfasts in the hotel... And maybe a visit or two to the hotel bar after matches.)

That sounds fantastic...a couple of days at the Welsh Open. Great tournament!

I originally started going to Newport because it was so cheap. I could travel up there on coach for 315 return, and stay in a B&B for £40 a night. Had to nip out to the pub for dinner, but got to know where the good pubs are.

In Cardiff, I'm staying in a hotel minutes walk from the Motorpoint. It's more expensive, but I get a hotel bar and restaurant. Hopefully it'll be good.

The cost was definitely worth it for you I'd say. It's something that one needs to experience though from time to time.
