The Top 10 Tweets -
1. Early moming run. I’m like Rocky. Running up the steps of the Town Hall. Just passed a man on his mobility scooter. Bet Gatland’s still in bed.
2. Scrabble going well, I just had flanker over a triple word score for 39pts. Benny said that’s more than I scored in my career. Walking home.
3. Train to Burry Port to get my hair done at Mike’s. Planted some caulis and carrots at the station. No one saw me. Again. Secret gardener.
4. Lovely morning, walked the dog and got the papers. Glad to see the hot dogs deal back on in Seaside Spar. Bought two tins for victory tea tonight.
5. In Next. Check shirts everywhere. It’s like I’ve died and gone to Carmarthen. I take it all back. Carmarthen trend setters.
6. Home now. Good session with Carmarthen Quins. Glad l took my denim jacket and check shirt. Made a good impression with the boys. Farmer fashion.
7. Popped into Sosban. Made reservation for next weekend. Real reason I came in was to use their Dyson Airblade hand dryer: It’s bloody amazing.
8. Zumba done. Glad they played Follow the Leader by the Soca Boys. Walked the poodle, mowed lawn, showered, hair blow dried. Gren's now for drinks.
9. New kit is launched tonight. Had cracking deal through eBay. Thirty red jerseys direct from Thailand for 40 quid. All mediums though . . . mmm budget.
10. Up at dawn. Running around Sandy Water Park. It’s deserted. Sit ups by the monument. Manilow on the iPod. 60 on Sunday. Stallone wishes he’s me.
