Hockey and freezing fog

Yesterday played hockey for chester club, i was playing for the 6ths which can only be described as a squad full of much older players, who play very much for the social side of playing hockey. I for one am a player who plays to win, to give everything each game , 110 percent and nothing less. The game we were playing was in doubt from the off especially with the freezing fog, we were playing llandudno mens seconds and it quickly showed as the average age of there team was around 20 and our was much much older. The game was challenging to say the least from playing as a forward role intially i started playing on the wing and enjoyed the game, comanding the wing, we did have a good few drives against there goal but no shot on goal which is unlikely.

But they were a younger side and were more up for the game from the push back. The game ended 6-0 vert much a loss, hopefully we shall have better fortunes next week.

Sharepoint

Recently over the last few days at work i have been installing, testing and messing around with sharepoint server, its quite powerful indeed of what you can do with it, even if it is a microsoft product. It have several good advanatges like it being able to link into any existing microsoft products and the reusability is immense, although its abit clunky it does work really well. :)

Busy Busy

Just a few things im doing at the moment, and what ive been up to of recent days and weeks:

Since moving back to Chester i have been unbelievable busy as i now have a social life once more, and its pretty hectic to say the least, ive only been back in Chester less than two weeks and already been out socialising at least four or five times, but all good times! Particularly enjoyed going out on monday, back to rbs which was an awesome night :) .

In work im enjoying it, been playing around with sharepoint server which although clunky and chunky is quite powerful indeed especially as a CMS.

University work is progressing well, trying to get my last 4000 word essay written so i can then begin to start on my dissertation after Christmas, but progress is slow and left to the weekends, i plan to nail it on the head this Sunday and get it sorted.

Hockey, ive played for university once, but because of working i haven’t been able too much as i like, but been training and training with Chester too, and playing on Saturday for the 6ths, well its a start at least. :)

Flat, im all settled largely into my flat, still need to put some photos up when i get time, though still without a tv, but never mind.

All in all pretty damn busy.
