I'm still having trouble with my broadband mad
It's connecting, but not working confused
The helpline people couldn't help whatever
Luckily, I have a friend who is pretty good at computer stuff, so I'll get him round and see if he can work out what's going on.

God, dial-up annoys me! I can remember when I first got the internet and I was like "oooh fast!" and then I got broadband and I almost wet myself at how completely awesome it was. Good times, good times...

Yeah, shyness can be a right pain in the ass. The thing is, it only effects me in non-social situations like at work or when public speaking. I can go up and speak to anyone in the pub but beyond that, noooo...
nish1:
We are all spoilt by broadband wink dail up is poo.

That was a pretty quiet weekend, just what I needed really smile
I did go and see The Ghetto Billies on Saturday night though, I liked them, they were like a punky version of R.E.M. shocked or something like that confused

I've got to go and buy some food now, as I've got nothing left to eat, except a can of beans and a can of pilchards frown

Yesterday, I went out and took some photos for this months SG Photography group contest, I have entered at last! biggrin
The subject should strike a chord with the goths amongst us.
I know this graveyard which is very over grown and most of the graves have been "passed by" and left. skull
The area has also been deemed a nature reserve, it sounds like someone has...

Wow, those photos are ace! I really love number 3 but 1 and 5 are also great.

Haha, nah the bloke is a friend of mine called Scott who lives in Swindon. Trolley Boy is just a nice fantasy because I know I'll never get up the nerve to actually go and chat with him.
someoneuk:
Cool pics, I hope you win something!

I took this yesterday:


I like the angles, where all the graves have been collapsing.

To my surprise, I have actually taken some half decent photos for the competition I mentioned in my last entry shocked
They all have to be in by the end of the month, so I've got time to take a few more yet smile

Netherlands was OK. Think I went to the real part of it, as opposed to the hyper-amsterdam.

It'll be interesting to see what happens with the new drinking laws.

A friend told me about a website called 43things, it seems like a good idea for a bit of self motivation.
I just can't quite find the motivation to join yet whatever
One day, perhaps smile

True, Bath is like the English version of Jamaica. Although the majority of people here exist to just make me want to gouge my eyes out... Retail work: It makes you want to maim someone!

I'm sat here doing this and watching a rather good adaptation of Frankenstein on TV at the same time, unexpected viewing for four in the afternoon.
Luke Goss stars as the monster! shocked
It's followed by a documentary on the sociopath William Deacon Brodie who, it turns out, was the inspiration for the Jekyll and Hyde story.biggrin

What's going on?
Something actually worth watching on a...

Time for an update, although things have been pretty quiet round these parts lately.
I've just spent the last two afternoons reinstalling WindowsXP and some of the other programs that I use, yawn!
I contracted a virus/adware thing, Spybot S+D wasn't removing it and Prevx home wasn't quite stopping it, but that was partly my fault whatever

It's all fixed now smile

There is a Burlesque Night...

It's beyond writing him a letter and phoning. i used to write emails, long ones, every day and he wouldnt reply for like 2 or 3 days. we're headed for disaster, actually i think it's already struck. *shrug* so I'll be single again for a while, it's a good thing .. time for the heart to mend. for all i know he wasn't good for me anyway.
imperfectcadence:
That was due to some very stupid shoes and a lot of prancing about. Weird thing is, I didn't actually notice the gaping holes in my feet until I'd got home and bothered to look. Which was like 6 hours later!

Oooh, you have a motorbike? What bike have you got?

It's my day off tomorrow smile
I should really try to make an effort and do something, like take my newish camera out, and use it.
My day off in the week has become like another Sunday, usually spent chillin' and not getting much done, time for a change me thinks.

The Descent is on at the cinema so I'd better go and watch it, I...

I really need to stop eating carb's so much, I've got a pretty high metabolism but I have a feeling my body is going to crash and burn soon. Ah well, mmmmmmmm toast...

I'm not very impressed with the new Odeon cinema, I mean, I haven't actually been in there but I'm loyal to the little theatre cos it's just so crappy, I mean, uhhh... It's got a lot of character. wink

It's better if they're not coasters though. smile

Now that was a really pleasant weekend smile

Apart from the bit where the home made cider my friend had made kicked in.
The party in his field on Saturday night was very chilled, a few of us went after the pub chucked out.
It was lovely to be outside sat around a fire in the great outdoors. After a couple of cups of the home...

for anesthesia, DEFNITIELY.

especially with big, blocky cubes of ice. not the orange slice shaped p.o.s. wedges that come out of our damn freezer.

I reckon it's since they've been told they'll go places. I mean, I really like it when a band is playing Moles like it's a stadium and are self-assured but they...I don't know, I think they've just kind of got a bit too up their own asses.

Rode Bird Gardens was great! I used to go there every summer for as long as I can remember. I always wanted to steal a flamingo... And Norwood Farm and Rainbow Wood Farm and Priston Mill and Avon Valley Country Park and the death slide there that would skin your arms, owww...
