Have been ill the last few days, was up being sick a couple of nights ago, thats finished now. but its been replaced by constant shitting instead lol. oh joy biggrin

Have been spending alot of my time working lately

need the money sooo bad so have been stuck there most days (except today due to my chronic shitting!)


Last week I got pulled by the police for having a light out on my car, so rather than fix that, I just scrapped my car and bought a new one off e-bay.
Its sooooo nice, quite old, but gets me around nice and comfy and nice and quick (turns out i bought one with a 2 litre engine)

*** Just realised that this ist he most boring update ever, but im ill, so dont care lol***

Afternoon all!

How are you all??

Pretty random week this week.

Had a gig in London last Saturday, was the best gig we have played so far over the past 12 months.
The crowd was great, and we sounded great. And to top it all off, we had a film maker film us so we have it on DVD>

The gig involved me being up for nearly 24hrs, as we didnt play until 3a.m, and when you have a 4hr drive back to south Wales after the gig, it means a very long night lol.

Was all going well until I got home and my cat had died frown
She was called Tyler, and was the coolest, most evil cat ever, so she's probably happy now, in hell sittingnext to Satan.



Was think of replacing her with either

Rats
Chinchillas
or, Chipmunks


Was my birthdayyesterday, my mates turned up with a cage, and two finches.
They are quite cool little things, noisy at times, but not all that bad
I named them Pinky and the brain.

Thanks to anyone who sent me any birthday wishes biggrin

I had the coolest T-shirt ever for my birthday, it has chunk from the Goonies on it doing the truffle shuffle




Will more than likely be quiet on here for the next few days, as I am going down to my dads with Becky for a few days.
So, speak to you all soon

My mother has come over from America, so we have been frantic cleaning the house lol and just generally doing the whole family thing!

It looks like a bomb has dropped here.
we are getting rid of the house, and me and becky are gona get a flat. The house is too big for the two of us as it is 3 bedroom, so we are gonna get shot of it. Hence us having to sort out stuipd ammounts of stuff while my mam is home

We have about 10 bags of rubbisg to throw out, about 3 bags of old magazines for recycling, furniture to get rid of, and about 5 bags of clothes and books and crap which we are going to send to the charity shop.

The last week has been pretty cool, had the gf down for a week and been in work and gigged. (new profile pic is from a gig that we did last night in cwmaman institute)
Was a pretty cool gig, goog crowd and good bands to play with.
My bands old drummer was there, and my gf wanted to kill her because she just spent the whole time bitching about how i had changed the songs and how that kicking her out was the worst thing the band had ever done.
We let her come up on stage and take over from me for one song as she is leaving the country......so i'd like to thank her for coming up and playing, and making me look good with how shit she was lol

Just got thru watching wales against new zealand in rugby, we lost

Stuff is ticking along nicely with me tongue

Had a few gigs lately, not as much as we usually have, but doing enough.
Our single/e.p is out now, we only have 40 of them at the moment, but once we sell those, it will leave us with money to pay for more to be done. You can get tem direct from anyone in the band or at:

Spillers records- Cardiff
Red house records- Aberdare
Derricks records- Swansea

Thats about it with the band at the moment, just been gigging and pushing the single


In other news, ben working loads recentley, as me and 8 mates are off to Blackpool in a few weeks for my friends birthday. Will be such a drunken weekend, especially if our last blackpool trip is anything to go by biggrin biggrin biggrin

Been seing a new girl the last 3weeks or so, she's called Becky, tis early days, but all goingfine so far lol

Aside from that been working alot, trying to get some money in cos im broke as fuck lol

The band is going great at the moment, we played an awesome show on friday, with some of the best bands that we have ever played with, was a real good night, and its soo good to start hear people singing the songs back at us when we play, really gets you fired up to play better and hit harder biggrin

We are still waiting for our album to come back from Greece lol, the guy producing it has posted it a couple of days back, so it should be here by the end of the week

Hoping the album is going to get back to us quick, we have a single coming out on September 24th, and we are having a c.d release party, so would be helpfull to have a c.d to go with the party lol

Hope all your weekends were great!
