A First Calstock Firework Display

 So this is one of those evenings with the winter events kicking in and to be fair, soon it will have to be telling more truths and the review of the year coming up in just over 1 month, it was time to explore a local event and actually with how the Bonfire night, went, it felt right to go to do this. So we maybe enjoy some fireworks and realise why I don't like going to pubs anymore.


A Catchup Day at work

So it was again another day of having to get the bus to work, I ran down and after the 10 past mark, it's like the bus stopped just before the stop to let me on and the driver said "I should have got on further up" But I paid the £3 and then got to the bus station. I decided to then not to wear the mask. I got off the bus at the station and walked to the shop. 

I got into the shop and it was to catch up on previous works and emails to do as well as A laptop to clone over and even some bits with the customers, like passwords, resets and also other bits. 

Later on, my parents popped into the shop and were seated, giving me waffles and a Rubicon bottle. 

The Rubicon and the chocolate waffle 

Then It got some iPad screens apart which was from a plan to get that done for the next week. But it ended up being 17:20 and a toilet was needed since the night before my stomach was rumbling a lot or a fair bit like it was going straight through me, but this probably is stress related since the past fists have been shaking nonstop until the end of Saturday on that side.  But I was on my way home by 18:10 and it was time to get the bus home. 

I got to the bus stop and there were these group of teens just doing their bants, as I got my face mask on, I saw and heard this lady comment about it and how she was being harassed and man enough to set them straight or something, but a few minutes later than planned, the bus arrived and I got on without paying since the return was the one, so 2nd bus there and last bus home. 

But I got on and checked with things like Feabie and metrodle and then it was some bit of time to kill with the signal dropping. But then it was time to get off, but the bunch of teens ended up. getting off after me, So I was then getting out and time to get walking up the hill, It was around the 18:45 mark, and the air was mild which felt right. 

So I got home,. 

The Evening out to Calstock

So, I got back home and then it was time to get changed and shaved, I said about the train times and it was actually later around 19:21 since of the delays that day.   But once shaved and the same clothes on, I got to leave with them and we walked down, the shaking was not as much the Glasses Semi charged and with the Light and cable going with, it helped to be able to charge them on the train for the way there. 

We eventually got to the station, and it was getting to be a bit busy. But still room on the platform an a around 8-minute wait until the train arrived. Using the railcard, i ended up paying £1.95 for a return which is actually cheaper than £3.80 my parents paid for a single each even with the 2 together railcard. 

The Station

AS we got on and then took a seat, it felt nice and comfy also the screens were off but the USB plugs were working nicely too. So i charged iot up and the conductor just came by and I showed the Ticket QR code. Then it was very much coming into the station. 

We got off and then a fair amount walked down the hill. The Path was pitch black but then it lead to the road which was packed, and I mean PACKED, like a gridlock of even dads just dropping off their daughter on the middle of the road and 3 of us squeezing by a card to head down to the quay. 

When we got there it was a MAJOR smell of the WEED, like it was cold air, Crowds in both the social club and the tamar in and the other pub and well it was a chaos of crowds. We walked our way to the car park since the pizza place i bought garlic bread once on a Tuesday. We greeted and she said she sold out but we got a menu with the number on it and well. it was the time to walk about to find a place, it was 19:45 so actually best to kill 15 minutes until the display. 


Eventually we stood near the bus stop and it was showing the opposite side of the river and torches on the other side. Eventually it was time. 

The Display 


Well, it happened about 8:01 and well it ended up a very good performance and whne it thought it ended, it carried on and so many bangs, whizzes and also the reflection, even from the chance of  a boat getting close by but not our problem. I'm surprised i got the glasses to film the whole thing without any hassle but even typing this, I'm not looked at the footage fully. 


The Start of the fireworks, the flashing 



Small Glimmers 



The Pink in the sky 



The smoke and the flares 



A blurry smoke 




A more of a pimk feeling to it 




The colours and the smoke 




The smoke a bit more 




The final bangs the smoke 

So it ended up the 20 minutes and then that display was over, time was finished and it ended up the crowds dispersing slowly, but the pubs were FULLY packed, well except one. 


The Time to kill to just get a drink 


We were thinking on ideas on where to go for a drink or food for our actual tea, so with both pubs full, we decided to go o the Boot in up the road, we walk via the semi little houses, but then it lead to the boot in with the green door. We opened the door and it was very quiet, like only around the bar  a few crowd. We waited for about 15 minutes and this chap got him and his wife served, the wife greeted us with a nod, but then the bartender or bar rep ended up serving this guide in a dark green top with a beard before us, like just skipped by us and after the bar rep served the ones to his left and then we just walked out since it was clear the ignorance was happening here. 

So we walked out and then ended up standing in a 25 minute queue in the Calstock Social club to get a drink, from cute big girls, farmers and even more week and nightclub smells when standing in the queue, we eventually paid £11.20 for 3 drinks and 3 packets of crisps, I got lime and lemonade and chicken wings max crisps in the end. 

The nice handle with the lime and lemonade

Now we chatted abut things and listened to the chatter and all that. But it took the time to work out the ideas and it was to be starting to walk our way up,  this was around the quarter to 10 mark. So we first had to re-trace steps to get mums other glove back, then it was the case of walking back up the hill, the road was dead quiet and not traffic jam at all. But then it was time to sit on the seat and wait for the train. Seeing a be-real that reminded me of a what if didn't help my mind focus. But it was time to do a selfie anyway. 

The be real




A Viww of the viaduct from the crossing 




A view of the station from the tracks 



But then the train appeared and we got on and sat by a table, but then it was a smooth ride back, with the train, so we still wait. But eventually by 10:22, we got off the train and walked home. Then from getting changed, we had a late night tea of the ham mayo rolls which worked really nicely. But then it lead to finally go to bed and it was the end of the day. 

But thanks for reading this and its now looking like its gong to the be the start of the end of the year Review, which will takeup ALOT of my time, but we shall see.

The Birthday Catchup

So the week back from the chance of meetups and chances to get productive, Time felt back to normal. But things I had planned which actually went wrong in some way. But we finally get to build up new things.

The past week. 


So after coming home on Saturday after work, One girl wanted to meet but I did say we could have met but since I was busy last weekend it didn't work out. But then I also got a message from one but 2 different girls, Now one I did message since she did look lovely. Eventually, we chatted and I got her an Indian, then dessert then her number, which for some unknown reason I found out later that week that when her screen was fixed, the number was changed but I think that was about £60 later. But getting a real name and actual real number out of it made it a very close call since it was close reporting her since there was a vibe of scam in the air. Hopefully, we do call but I think nothing serious will come from it yet but I and S found her real Bank address so its a unique twist in the plot. 

That and work was busy, almost every evening was booked which is great, but also there were the thoughts of chatting to the amazing girl i met and also wanting to plan when to see her. Its looking like November but still a decision on that according to a poll will be before the Pokemon Pop up Shop Closes, Which actually I did the poll today but still it is looking like sure the food dates i've planned will be covered but I will do my best to get some footage of the pokemon pop up shop, but that closes on the day Sword and shield comes out. And I did send my phone to her which was just to do the right thing since its important to help friends out that actually need it,   

The phone to send and settings up a 5C for me to get Goose Fair Vlogs done 


Also, it was a chance of a new review. 


I'm surprised you want to see more of a 4G router for £35 instead of Gfuel Hydration but okay. Maybe I might get a collab for the review of Gfuel for a bit of attention or views. Also, I now have used my £10 credit on Cuniq and that now gets me 80GB of data for 2 months, which will be ideal 

But also with announcement of Kik shutting down, it was looking glum for some of the chats. Well one feedee that I did chat too but she's engaged so it's just purely business on that end, but it also made closure on something that's been happening for the past 2 months which all I know is, for now, nothing will happen or not meeting at  least, But its friends only which is good actually so its not bad terms. And things have progressed locally with soon I will be able to see a friend in her new flat which will be great with her new place. But time will tell. Another girl from FF I talked to on Kik was one message then disappeared. 

Now the main reason is that one of the other messages was from this girl,, we chatted and turns out she goes to one of the holiday parks near Exmouth which is cute, BUT she wanted £40 for her number and well okay I did take the bait and we chatted and yes fed her twice or so more after, but then it was getting to the stage like she was saying phone screen smashed AND she was robbed last night. Now that is a big burn on the skin so I reported her. But doing that is just stupid of Ka to do it but Feabie can sort that another day. 

That and one girl I used to talk to ages ago i've gotten her number and its good to chat to her, she's really nice and again its just friends but she's a busy lady and does well to gain with the responsibility she has. But maybe I might meet her one feabie meet away. 

That and well FIFA 20 yada yada game ruined #Fixcarreermode yada yada PS4 Pro + 10 games for £399 yada yada. I think I hit my head on the cardboard promo boxes twice. 

PS4s in 

The boxes above that did hit me

Then it came to Sunday. Saturday was a wet finale

The birthday of a relative. 


Well it was nice to catch up, I woke up at 9:45, was walking Rosie about 11 or so, then tech support on Directly until 12 which was shower time. 

Rosie with a ball to stare at
Then by about 12:10, my sister and grandparents arrived and we got in her car in the rain and we were off to the Prince of Wales again. I was in the car with my sister and grandparents, I had the chance to catch up with them, I said I was going to London again and they were intrigued. But then it was in the rain to drop off the grandparents outside while we parked in the main car park. 

The outside of the Pub

Then we walked in and got a seat, the cute girl from last time served us and well we all went on a roast Beef normal for all. Not bad for £8.90 each and they portions were huge and the pint of lime and lemonade is soo good.

The pint of lime and lemonade

The Massive roast with some vegetables, Yorkshire puddings and Gravy. 

Then we chatted and ate, I was hungry. We all enjoyed the roast and actually got really full so we skipped the dessert and then we walked out of there. It was slightly drying off as we left


The odd picture when leaving

Then it was more of catch up before we got home and the Rosie got really excited. Then we settled down and the cake was lit and we ate the Lidl chocolate celebration cake and then chatted. I also chatted to Kaylee and the other girl which was really nice. I might be getting both foods soon too.

Then it was time to say goodbye to the grandparents and sister at 4pm, which then we said it and I chatted then went to go #dogwalkingwithomracer. It was nice she enjoyed it and still chatting on WhatsApp and then as I walked back, the rainbow appeared. 


The rainbow and the east

Then I relaxed and got chatting and planned a few things and things went okay. 


Later on, I managed to get the phone call but it seems it was a bloke on the phone, a male scouse accent it had the feeling of a catfish and asked some questions but its still something I have to work on. And well cookie dough to cheer a friend up is important as well. 

But well that was it, another day done and new things await. 

See you soon

A Moor summer walk

So, the 1st of the summer days off. This was only a day to relax before work and actually a possible chance of a 7th date a few days away, so my anxiety was almost higher than normal. But this day was a way to enjoy the great outdoors for only a few hours before relaxing and even another CTR league tourneys to enter for the second week.


The catchup


Well, i've had alot of late nights these past few days, especially after working 13 days straight and getting to know a new girl from feabie and hopefully, I get to be lucky and meet up with her before she's on a flight to the US next week of the end. But the end of last week, I did manage to get some CTR played and also an #omracereats video that will come after the end of another CTR League video of another match. 





But eventually its Sunday. 

The Morning. 


So, I get up, a bit later like 10:30 and then it was killing time and checking the internet before a bit of breakfast which also included some nice ham and peanut butter toasted sandwiches. 

The Sandwiches
But eventually it was about 11:45 and time to get to the outdoors, there were a few moments of talk and they were on the moors on a walk.

The #dogwalkingwithomracer


The walks were nice with various chatter of things from family, work, life and even memories. But things are always about the views, shame I couldn't record any video, but also I had images in my mind of belly rubbing the hopefully lucky girl I get to meet next week. 

The views and parents

Moor Views

Looking at a different place

The clouds and hills

The other views

Eventually, after 1:30pm which was fun of the cooling the dog and other places to walk, we got to the pub which was the Prince of Wales, turn s out its owned by part of the Dartmoor brewery which means its cheaper for drinks.

The Sunny meal. 


Well, we got the meal in the beer car park, it was nice actually, loads of people out, 2 cute soft sized waitresses, I even checked feabie and the girl I didn't get chance to meet last year when up London returned to feabie and gained 20lbs bless her. But we all went for roasts, in the end, it was lush. Cost £8.50 which is nice. 

The beer garden 
The £8.50 roast
There was a cute waitress that served the food and also there was a nice couple that offers a dog sitting service as well. But after this, it was time to go home, well almost. 

The last bit of walk.

We decided to walk on the railway line for a short while, it was getting hot but my mind was on other thoughts which made me excited, but the views were always the way to go. But its been good to enjoy the views of seeing a new place which was a base of the distillery. 

The steel




The views which can see the sea
Then it was on the way home, which was nice to reflect and then I had some chores to do and plan backups and also the tournament to enter. 

That will be more fun of a hopefully a summer of feeding but we will see.

omracer's Third Date

I've been thinking on this one and more recently, debating if I should skip it due to the new job and in the end, it's been that I've went for it, I was meant to be on the night out last week but this rain has been just a drainer.

I've had time to myself, the new job has been quiet yet demanding and new business relationships have been forming, even one started today.

My love life has really been a quiet one, sure I've now been realising that maybe I'm not cut out for it, sure I'm falling for someone and maybe finally getting the plan of meeting up maybe next year. Sure Johnny made me question if I would even get time to have a relationship if I'm going to be busy with the new job. But with how I've felt, a nice talk and that dream of what a relationship would be like needs to keep me going.

The morning


Let's be fair, I was up at 9:30 this morning, then it was getting accounts done and I was meant to edit the streams, but some have disappeared, which buggers things up but meh.

Eventually that, a call to a helpful rep on diaplaypro and a smoothie, time passes and if was time for #dogwalkingwithomracer and just as I did that, a call happened with good news with a plan I wanted has happened and my steps are the one to take next. Just as I got that finished, my grandad popped over, so we got ready to actually go. The walk was nice, sure I was shouting since he doesn't wear his hearing aid in public, but we enjoyed a nice play, Rosie did too.

The Afternoon


Then we got back and it was time for us to have lunch, so he bought pasties over with him, I made some beef ravaoli and rice to go with mine, it was nice, sure I should of added more, but I didn't want to get too full, since of later on.

The lunch from earlier

Then I was checking the file I was sent with a fair bit of ideas, the rain was on and off and I also got Freedompop setup on his old phone. Then we went to the lounge  and we chatted more and shown him a new thing, but it was heading towards 2pm which means another walk with Rosie, this was shorter, but we enjoyed it even though the wind was picking up.

Walking with Rosie

Then it was time for me to prepare for this client, who actually called me in a panic about her router, But I prepared for getting there, got the bike up and cycled to hers, it only took 15 minutes and it's from one end of Tavi to another.



Then we chatted and I taught her internet searching, then it was gossip and I left by 5:10. Cycling down the steep hills, getting money for this amazing moment and then back up a different flat ish way home.

The preparation


Now things of me going back home, Rosie was excited for 1 minute, then bone and teeth, I checked emails and the bus, it turns out the bus I needed was the 6:45 ish bus. So I rushed her out for a walk with the ball, She was herding them and it was a quick one out to do her business, then by 6:10 I was home.

I had the shower, with raspberry and apple shower gel, head and shoulders, shaved the eyebrows and a teeth brushing before getting changed.
The Black jeans, blue trainers,, checked shirt, it was a casual affair, also loose pants for if she is as dreamy as she was last time.
By then, I got my phone ready, charged a tiny bit, downloaded the file for reading up if I had time and then by 6:30, I was a goner, locked up, ran with mi fit and I got to the Lidl bus stop.

The stop at Lidl

I waited for the bus, a kid was at the stop too and I chatted, then it was sadly a Day Rider for £5.50 before getting on, a single deck bus I've not been on since it was A first bus.
The journey was quiet, the weather was just about holding up, clouds were gray but patches of blue sky were ready for me to hopefully sace the evening clothes. By 19:22, I was at the flyover bus stop, spitty rain and grey hoodies passing me. I then walked in to Morrison's

Getting off the bus and waiting here

Heading into a revamp of Morrisoms


A Morrison's time kill


Browsing in Morrison's was ok, thee was a really some good bits and a revamp was underway, some games £2 cheaper, than I sold them at, a nice toilet break before looking for jumper but none around. Then it was 7:45 and I was deciding to make my way, clouds were above but some big blue gaps helped keep me dry, I guess it was time to run.

The clouds were getting there


The rain running, again


Well I left and running was going ok, until I passed co op, then it was raining, off and on, this was until getting right at Esso and things went really soaking, my mind said oh shit, I was soaked but luckily it eases off as I got to hers, 20 minutes early.





I decided to go to the pub nearby again, where the tortoise was, the clouds were good and the shirt was wet as per usual.

A Soaked selfie


Gracie then text me asking me to come a big later, so I said yes and relaxed in the pub, I ordered a glass of water and watching the farming program on ITV 1. The amount those farmers have on kids is amazing really.

The Glass of Water

Wasting time with Corrie with far fetched plots and eventually it was 8:40, another customer popped into the pub and had the can of theirs blue up , I learned a tick of if the inside of the mackerel is grey, you need to just bin it, if it's white then is fresh. News topics was on time about fire regulations being one way and one for another. Also that Mr fantastic from Fantastic 4 is in a new drama called liar too. I waited for the text.


The incredible relaxing date


I got the text actually by 8:45 and I pelted it to hers, I knocked on the door, the mi band felt the heart at 148bpm, she unlocks the door and well, she looked amazing, and I really know where I was, she greeted me in and I took my trainers off, she likes them, then she walked up and I followed to her room.As we looked at each other,  she said its been so long and then we kissed, she felt me with the hug and it was cold, well I was cold, so she wanted to get the heating on. I waited on the bed, then I got my shirt off, since it was wet and we got the taxi booked for 10:40, but rubbing my shoulder as she called Taxi fast and also as she text someone else. That and paying her, since it was £170, a good value.

Something about socks, um

Drying the shirt


Then it was finally nice to relax in the bed and we kissed, with lip biting and that smooching sound that was just  a amazing time. We talked about so much, she remember I loved her smothering me with her tummy, which once that happened, I was in heaven, maybe a dream. I told her about love life and we also talked about Game of Thrones, she's getting a wool based cape made soon which reminded me Sansa.

But then it was a bit of fun with her trying to get my belt off, since jeans are so thick, but then it was some advice that I thought I would of heard when I had that check up 3 years ago. But it really did set down with me on what I had to do.

I did make her tickle with a belly rub and then we just laid and chatted, about her life, about food, Facebook and I did mention Feabie as well. Some people go ott on a joke as well, which was relatable AF.
She giggled at the term "Double chin on point" when I was talking about someone which it's a odd term but it a modern twist on a love for something people hate.

There was also talk with what happened with Leah, Charley and Emma which she took in how I felt.
But the fun was really interesting as we were talking when she asked about my birth month, i found out that ♉ (Taurus) actually like a over indulgence in the people they love, and also how it shows comfort which explains a bit of my feeder tendencies.

As I was feeling her thighs while kissing, she got up and was out for a minute, I was worried but she said not to be. She came out with dark chocolate, so we did the thing where we kissed and we both are the chocolate, that felt really good. Then she rubbed my belly and feed me a bit, I fed her and she was really enjoying it. With me I was on cloud 99. I talked about the meal that got me on buzzfeed and she said how much cake and chocolate she had eaten today, it was just nothing going wrong.
Then it was talking about the wildlife, which I found out sugar and water can help a bee survive, but it was interesting to find out about facts I never knew existed. That and also GM foods can keep the world going.

But it was close to 10 pm and she asked if I wanted a back massage and that was nice, i meant she got the oil out and she felt the stress on my back, mostly towards my left side, I was trying to not fall asleep, the relaxing side of it was just what my body needed. She was surprised about Dog Reiki as well since a friend of mine does  offer that. Then I said with leaving my old job and she went "That's absolutely fucking n sane" (bonus points for the reference) when I said I had my first week off in 5 years, once I had left my old job just over a month now. Also we talked about this amazing Spicy Vegetable stew which she e-mailed me the link for that later on. I also told here i'm a vlogger and she might sub to me along with the POWWOW competition, Christ that was over a year ago.

Then we were having the last bit of belly kissing and talking for 20 minutes, she said something which was along the lines of all the fun things are dangerous in life, from being a feeder, liking tanned girls as examples. But then her phone went off which was knowing it time to finish. They called up and then i got changed and we sat down for one last kiss and chat, which then we took 2 selfies, sure we didn't kiss but the photos mean memories of someone that helped me keep going in times I never would of happened.





Then we walked back down her stairs, she showed me her really nice designed acrylic nails and then was a bit of a goodbye speech coming in, But she said that "i'm there if you need this" which tells me that even if my heart falls with someone else, there will be a place that she helped glue back together.
I then walked out and into the taxi.

The Journey back

With a taxi in, he drove his way back to Royal Parade, but with me being 15 minutes early, it wasn't a bad time to actually finish at the Train Station, which then it was £4.90 and using change, that was paid, I gave him £0.10 tip so a £5 is fair, sure i could of run it but I ended up running to Mutley again. He was a nice chap, its been quiet for him on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays. 

The Lit up station




Then again, passing cuba and then 2 girls were looknig for a neon party in Plym street, I said to her "If i go, i would have to run 15 miles back home since i missed the bus", she was unsure but her mate said "Don't just invite strangers to a house party", By then it was at the 24 hour spar in north hill. Which was nearly empty. I carried on soon afterwards.

The North Hill in soaked rain


Then after a bit more running, seeing Dominoes open and a girl was at the bus stop, it was a wait to get that bus, but shortly after a 10 minute wait, I was on the bus, it was those mini ones and then the ride home. Typing some of this up and I had a tear in my eye. With realising that I said goodbye without realising it back then. But times have been places in a unpredictable timeline and we don't know where it will take me. I finally got off the bus at lidl and a run home was it, some kids were walking near tesco too, one shouted something.

The night at lidl
I finally got home, then reflected after rosie let me rub her belly, which then she went bed too. But alas, this night was up for me.

Many Thanks for reading this, this was a pretty incredible night, i've felt things more and also being  up for most of that date knows who i am and what does make me tick. But a day in the life vlog is planned this week.
