Another boring couple of days.

Won the pub quiz tonight (again), which is just so rock and roll isn't it?

Booked tomorrow afternoon off work so I can build the world's greatest bonfire for this party. Have refused point blank to have and timber in the back of my car, so a friend of a friend has donated hers (how stupid). Also, between now and...

Done fuck all in work today, for the second day running as the gaffer is away on a conference or seminar or something. Just trying to think of stuff that I could have done the last couple of days that he wouldn't be able to check on. Not hard, as he's a complete luddite. Which is pretty disconcerting for an IT Director. I'll just string...

Well, developed the pylon pics tonight. They look ok, but maybe a bit too abstract to be included in the nominations for Pylon Of The Month (hey, be careful there, the Ukranian Bus Shelters are fuckin' addictive - stay away from the links page!)

Hmmm, I reckon I'm going to print a t-shirt with "Pylon Polemic Number 18" on it. That'd confuse the local indie...

hmmm, spent the entire weekend up in the mountains of north wales with my fantasic new tripod. this would have been a major undertaking if it weren't for the fact i live in the mountains of north wales already.

anyway, did something i've never done before - found myself lying within the footprint of an electricity pylon with a camera. i might do it again...

Oh my god, whoa flashbacks from wayback I can't berleive you saw that I was wearing that lovely lime green Arm Snappers uniform, aaaah those were the days , poor old Roy I really hurt him with that 'triple crunch snap' shocked

I think if you really got to grips with the 'super snap' there is no way you would ever condone the use of a 'doppler' again, its just so archaic in comparison!

I will give you some intensive training wink
charley:
The Full-Fulcrum Torque Drop, wow that really is old skool, I am quite impressed though eeek

Yes I still have the uniform, its on the floor in a heap I must have got it off somehow and also managed to have the foresight to have a shower and wash some of the blood off, drunken brains are bizarre shocked

Well, I didn't take the day off, but made myself a Peel compilation CD last night for the car so I could listen to it to and from work. Think I'm starting to come to terms with things.

Think I might nip up Heswall this weekend to see if anyone is leaving flowers anywhere. That's if I don't end up in Manchester on a bender....

I'm just shocked, I can't believe he's gone. I've been away with the fairies all afternoon, just trying to thing about how John changed my life. When I think about it, it really is unreal. The bands I got into because of him, and the subsequent gigs where I met friends, it's just too much to digest. This is the most upset I've been about...

It is utterly unreal, I had actually had conversations with friends about how I would feel when he died...expecting it to be when I was much older in another time far away from now...he has been a massive influence on me my whole life, literally as my Mum was a huge fan...big love or the Peely love I am listening to Calexico Alone Again Or right this very minute, you reminded me of how wonderful a cover version it is frown

Actually, about that bloke the other night. I didn't quite quote him right, as I forgot that he was from Manchester. (poor fucker).

Anyway, what he really said was:-

"...yeah, tell yoz oo i really loves yeah, an' that's 'Ooteh & t'Blowfish"

Didn't want you going around thinking the guy was Hugh Grant or some other chinless wonder did I?

Anyway, luckily haven't had any...

Well you know I probably wouldn't say no to one of those fancy bling bling Audis, better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick wink

Last night I was talking to a bloke who said the most alarming thing. Are you sitting down?

"...yeah, I tell you who I really love though, and that's Hootie & The Blowfish".

I have honestly never heard such piffle in my entire life. I can't believe people who I call my friends hang around with people who not only like Hootie & The Blowfish,...

Today I have mostly been looking at porn and filling in my profile on this thing. A day well spent, methinks. I love throwing sickies. - man flu still gripping me - undertakers will be round in the morning for measurements.
charley:
Hehe man flu!!!

Its so true though, goodness imagine if boys had periods shocked
charley:
Hehe yeah I can't even begin to imagine...what I do know is that there would be special 'period hospitals' ..

Sore leg? Its probably deep vein thrombosis, I am sure it will be ok by tomorrow wink
