New grounds and new phone!
So the phone came through!! It's very similar in look to my old K810i which is good as its familiar in the way it runs. It looks slightly sharper. Its nice to have the torch function that the K810i didnt have as well as all the extra features...
So at first the internet was very slow and Google maps had been taken off (for some strange reason) by o2, so I wasn't happy! But I then went online and went to www.GetJar.com (wap.GetJar.com from your mobile) and downloaded Google Maps which works perfectly and also downloaded an internet browser called Opera Mini and its so much faster and shows the full internet instead of the old compressed mobile version of old. I also downloaded eBuddy which means you can use MSN or Facebook Chat on your mobile - its actually so much more reliable than Facebook Chat on your PC! I also, and you'll love this, downloaded the Bible to my mobile!! All of this was free. So for the moment, after 24 hours, I love my phone.
So in the past 4 days I've been to 3 new grounds. Firstly Pilkington XXX, it's my local club. They were playing Cadbury Athletic in the FA Vase and XXX won it 2-1. The ground was old and cute, it has a stand of 50 seats and 3 stone steps that go most of the way round the ground. Next up for the me was Sutton Coldfield Town on the Tuesday night. They played Halesowen Town in the League Cup and guess what... it went to penalties! Halesowen scored a 30 yard screamer, one of the best goals I've ever seen, had their goalkeeper sent off and still won it!! The ground was alright, plenty of covered terracing, small stand and a nice tea bar. My final ground was Aston Villa FC for the League Cup clash against QPR. Only 21,000 in that night to see QPR cause an upset. So that puts me on 133 grounds. I reckon I'll surpass 150 by the end of the season, that's unless I became settled at a club.
