Good news! James and I got a call from BlueArrow, and we have work for Sunday. It's only 7 hours unfortunately. I was hoping for more because they originally said the entire weekend, but hey you gotta take what you get. It's cool though because we'll be working at Celtic Park, home of the Glasgow Celtic. For those of you who don't know, Celtic are the #1 club team in all of Scotland. It'll be pretty damn cool working in the stadium for a Celtic game, and we can be reasonably sure it'll be really, really loud. Why? Because the Celtic are going to win, of course. In 34 premiership games this season, the Celts have only lost once.

Even better news for James though, it seems like his money worries have had one hell of a boost. Along with the work we both were given for Sunday, added to that he was given a 8-3:30 shift for today and tomorrow, along with all next week. That makes a total of 59.5hrs for James, and even at minimum wage (£4.50) that's a nice pile of cash. Suddenly fixing the broken window doesn't look like the straw that broke the camels back. I wish I could get some more hours as well, but I certainly don't begrudge James his hours, because he needs the money more than I do. So it works out. :)

Last night we went to a pub called Scream and hung out while watching some soccer. In the first match, we saw Scotland lose 1-0 to Denmark. In a more entertaining follow-up game, Portugal and Sweden tied 2-2. In other games, Germany suffered a humiliating defeat at the hands of Romania, 5-1 (I'm sure the Germans and others are pleased the Romanians failed to qualify for Euro 2004, after seeing that last performance), and the Netherlands snapped the Greeks 15-game winning streak with a handy 4-0 victory. We played pool with a few Scots for the bulk of the time, suffering a few defeats but gaining some wins as well in the Canada vs Scotland matchup. The final game went well past the bars closing, and we played on as security urged a decision, in spite of some bad breaks and unlucky bounces, Canada took the final match when the Scots scratched on a final 8-ball shot. We gladly accepted that gift.

I made a huge supper last night, and it was bloody good. Unfortunately we still managed to eat it all, so no leftovers for today :s. Just thinking about it makes me hungry, ever since we got here we've been skimping on food as much as possible to save money.

I've been trying to keep up with working out as much as possible. Though I lack the tools and resources to continue on a real program, I still do 200-300 situps every night along with 100-150 pushups. It's not much, but anything is better than nothing.

Anyhow, thats about it for today, have a good one peeps!
