Ice Bucket Challenge @ theDogs!

Well done to all the restaurant staff at the Peterborough Greyhounds (my place of work) that took part in the Ice Bucket Challenge!

Sorry, I did not take part in the challenge. Well they needed people to film it, after all!

Here are some photos from the Ice Bucket Challenge. The video will get edited soon and will be uploaded to the Peterborough Greyhounds facebook page

All the money we raised will go the Motor Neurone Disease Association. You can make your own donation, by texting ICED55 £5 (or other amount) to 70070 (only available in the UK).

Winter Olympics theme night @ the dogs

On Friday 21st February, where I work is having a theme night for the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics. I will be wearing my ‘Some People are Gay. Get Over It!’ t-shirt but the new Russian version. Which I ordered yesterday. I feel as a gay man, I have to do my bit for the gay people living in Russia.

Below is photo of myself wearing the English version of the t-shirt. You can order both the English and Russian version’s at web.stonewall.org.uk/public/shop/default.aspx.

Last night at work in 2013!

Here are two photos from my last evening at work in 2013! I am sure that most of you, know that I work at the Peterborough Greyhound Stadium. I am the main restaurant bar supervisor, in control of three bars (two in restaurant and one in the corporate suite). The restaurant has 400 reserved seats. The doors open at 6:30pm with the first race at 7:30pm.

Now you all know what I do :).

Kirsty and myself working hard!
