My weekend.

Ooh what a weekend. Thursday was our Xmas do, cant recall all that much of it, some I do remember I get little pangs of did I act inappropriately. I don't think I did but hell, until I meet up with people who were there I wont know. Friday I had to make it back from Telford's international hotel to Stafford and thought I was going to be sick every inch of the way, I wasn't but as soon as I got home it was to bed. We saw tenacious d on Friday night.I will try and set the scene for this concert,

clap your hands say presents.

Should really be starting on the purchase of little ern's christmas presents soon, by now I am usually done and dusted and punching the air in delight that I have again surpassed myself and she is getting something totally unique, in the past she has had artwork, signed first editions, extremely rare records. This year so far I have got her some slippers from new look, and as far as inspiration goes thats about all that she will be getting. What do you get the dwarf that has everything? My clap

fun, and games.

Fun and games this morning, a couple of things put a gordon ramsey sized crease in my forehead. First off Nightcrawler pasted a link to a website, a silent auction website and I posted that according to public records those people did not exist, the owner of that website messaged me, that was a surprise and well we discussed my comments and I think it finished amicably, my only thing was how the hell did he know about those comments? The other thing, wee insomniac posted tubgirl this morning, n

New job.

Well I started that new job on Monday, it was slow at first, thats understandable but I am actually learning something now. I can see I am going to enjoy it.

ah the joys of work.

Its days like today that I wish there was a button that said Neil, ban me for 24 hours. I was off on Friday and have come back to a mountain of work, stupid f**king managers not approving anything because clearly they have better f**king things interrupting their day, whereas I have 4 f**king days to leave my work in a reasonable state prior to starting a new f**king job. So all this has made me stressed and perplexed and rage filled and I do not want to go on a board and write something ill tho

squits.

I am ill today, I know why, when you have a bit of a wheat intolerance and you chow down on a pizza, be prepared for the consequences, I wasnt and am off poorly today, it isnt really poorly, its dashing to the khazi every 2 minutes ill.

another exciting weekend.

I ventured out on Friday, to a local pub with a mate and his wife, and what started out as a quiet drink turned into sambuca and no memory of getting home. Saturday was recovering and although it was slow and long, it was a recovery. We have a man coming today to sand and varnish the floor, yesterday we had to get the sofa out of the living room and it took 2 hours, a spanner and the removal of the arms, excessive cursing and damning DFS to the heavens. Eventually we got it out and sold it to a

I am touched by your presence ears.

For the past few weeks I have been afforded the relative luxury of an office, well for the next two weeks at least, until I move to the new job. Hence my upped presence on efestivals, its been nice not worrying who is looking over your shoulder and having to quickly alt-tab to a spreadsheet (always keep a spreadsheet handy).

Ouch.

Pixies doc.

Started watching the pixies documentary today, loudquietloud, caught the first half on the bus on my psp. I am aware that the editing isnt too flattering of the band and Davids drinking as a result of his fathers death is highlighted, however it has been pretty insightful so far, footage of their first rehearsals since they got back together and behind the scenes stuff, and from my perspective kim singing a song that will surely go on the next breeders album. We listened to title tk last night,

Baby fratelli.

Fratellis last night then, well, not great to be honest, not appalling, far from it, just the sound was weedy and they struggled at times to recreate the sound that was on the album, they definitely would have benefited from an additional guitarist, and a little tightness to proceedings. Also the PA or sound man wasn’t really that good. They sort of shambled into songs, the guitarist started and the drummer joined in when the mood took him, they were ok and I still love them on record, but do no

august bank holiday!!!

I see Sshh has been confirmed for August bank holiday weekend, well according to their website it has. This is marvellous news, and a perfect weekend to have it, we were resolute that we were not going to do the carling weekender this year and sh being the best festival we ever attended that has definitely put it firmly as a yes. We also want to to endorse-it as well this year and maybe something early on, unsure what off the tracks is like but that seems the right price at the right time of the

Tilly and the Bawl

I wanted to explain my previous blog entry and the foul mood that unfortunately that came off the back of. I think part of it stems from the my thoughts on death and having someone very close to me die, and recently due to things here in real life that death although happened a few years ago, has been in the forefront of mine and my families life over the past few weeks, this coincided I suppose with the aftermath of some Australians death and peoples attitudes to that. I linked that to how I wa

hiatus.

I have got quite worked up about south parks ridicule over steve irwins death, I guess I was able to put myself in the shoes of his family. The common theme on the thread that I posted was that he was that because its south park and they were playing for laughs it was justified. I am not offended by a cartoon poking fun at a death, just for a second though I thought blimey imagine you were terri watching that, or his little girl would think. It appears no one could imagine that and I was wrong f

catch up.

Its been a while and nothing posted, little really to say at the moment. Oh I got a new job, bitch that I worked with made my life hell so I had a word round the company and I have been given a chance at working as a tester, unqulified, inexperienced but they gave me a chance, which was bloody nice of them. Also we got a rescue kitten, he is called cosmo kramer riley ricketts donohoe, but we call him kramer. Watched clerks 2 finally and although it is clearly the most verbally disgusting f

sad day

Life online is an odd beast, I have had an internet connection since around 96, 28k modem and it moved like a wounded dog, over the years I have made acquaintances, some friends and some very good friends. I have met heroes due to the internet and discovered more music than I could imagine. I have friends in Salinas, London, Chicago, Leeds, Glasgow, New York and other far flung places, St Albans for example. You know these people but you don't really know them, the lady I know in Salina

c30 c60 c86 go!

I am 36, I realise my age wont mean much to you or this thread but it sets a scene. I read on nme.com that a couple of gigs are happening to celebrate the 20th anniversary of C86, I appreciate that only a handful of people on here will have heard of C86 and a few less will actually have heard it. C86 was initially a covermounted cassette that the nme put out in 1986, later getting a vinyl release. It comprised of indie bands from that time who were categorised under shambling as peel called i

Shut up Peter you old bastard.

During the 80’s I was aged between 10 and 19, the 80’s are therefore still fresh in my mind. At the time we had popstars that cared more about their hair and their drugs than they did about music, it was the beginnings of the cult of celebrity people like Amanda and bruiser de cadenet, music was at its lowest, waiting for a reaction that thankfully came from the likes of the smiths and later on nirvana. I lived through the 80’s and I hated them, the politics, the music, the fashions, and the cel

Fleeting.

I could do with a few more hours in the day today. I think Essex's patience will be starting to wear a bit thin with me, it looks like I have got an excuse not to come out, but little frogmellas birthday broke the bank this month. Next month I have a mates 40th, that’s a meal in Birmingham and a hotel to boot, another expensive night, plus gigs and I feel Paul will be sending me abusive texts. We tend to hibernate between September and Easter anyway, we get out for gigs but we have so many

Time off.

Every couple of years or so I feel the need to get off line for a while, normally centres around me feeling that I have been spending too much time on my PC or work creeps up and I need to concentrate that aspect of my life. Now it seems that that is the case at the moment, well a combination of the two. It’s a little more difficult now though, with one thing and another.

My weekend.

Good night watching Hips Likw cinderella, Essex was out and he was large and in charge, turns out he was at Uni with the bassist Larry. They were being filmed for something and so if you see Hips like cinderella on telly in the near future, the loon dancing around, well that’s Essex. Him and little legs were in various states of drunkeness, I was on fosters so all I did was get bloated and piss a lot. Sunday we walked dem dogs up Cannock chase and that killed a bit of time, watched a few films,

Saturday is tiswas, never a day to miss cos.

I seem to be in a constant state of f**ked offness recently. I havent posted much in this forum or any other for that reason for this reason alone, I read posts and get f**ked off by them, I wouldnt be able to contribute as it would be purely negative. That said me and the dwarf went to see me you and dupree last night at Star City, we paid for the gold class seats so didnt have to tolerate 10 year olds being twats. Not a bad night and the first friday in a lifetime where I didnt drink. To
