London,Friday 22nd April-Hungarian Gypsy Jazz

Had a nice time chilling from one coffee shop to another, and of course spent a while in one of my favourite places in London-Waterstones on Piccadilly. I bought three books- "Natural Novel" by the Bulgarian Gosbadinov, "The Box Man" (Kobo Abe-the Japanese author who also wrote "The Woman in the Dunes" which was later made into a surrealist film)...

London,Day 1,Thursday 21 April

The trip down on one of Virgins' Pendalino train was lovely. Two hours from Stockport to Manchester and the journey was as smooth as glass.

I stayed with an ex girlfriends'(and her boyfriend) in Hackney, in a tower block close to Islington.Didn't have much time to relax in Martins' company though, because I had to make my way to the Spreadeagle,off...

Birthday part One- Stockport County 2,Doncaster Rovers 4

County were once again a rather makeshift side;apart from Stewart Barlow, who is 36,the oldest player was 23.It was almost like watching a youth team.

The score was probably not a fair reflection of the game. County were actually in the lead until the final fifteen minutes, but after Doncaster drew level they carved through the shaky...

Alright there sweetness, evil twin here - how ya doin'???
kolumkilli:
I'm ok. Just coming to the end of a nice fat week off work which I haven't done very much with. Probably give my liver, lungs and kidneys the weekend off, they've been working very hard recently. Too bad about Tara, but there comes a time when you have to cut your losses - basically I get the impression that the idea of a relationship stresses her out too much. It's not a reflection on you.

...see ya for now sweetness...!

A sad Weekend Departure

The weekend saw a sad departure, a taking leave that had long been expected but was none the less painful when it happened, that followed a long period of decline and suffering. A departure that bought tears to my eyes.

No I am not talking about the fucking Pope.I mean Stockport Countys' sad departure this weekend from League One down to...

It's just that kinda period right now.
And also I think I'll have too clean my bedroom a bit. I think that could have something to do with it as well.
Sigh.
I don't wanna clean.

Last Sunday,Nouvelle Vague at Later Room.An excellent night.

I reached the Life Cafe without a ticket,and met another guy queuing to get in.I couldn't remember where in relation to the Life Cafe the Later Room was, so I asked this person if he was there for Nouvelle Vague and he mumbled (in a French accent) something to the effect that he was.

At 7pm, the...

"And so this is Easter..and what have I done?"

Next to nothing.

Yesterday I went into Manchester,to my favourite fashion/household store-Muji-and bought a few nic-nacs,before wandering through the Northern Quarter to my brothers' shop,Piccadilly Records. I checked whether the Russian Cultural Centre on Stephenson Square had indeed bitten the dust,unfortunately it has.

Had a chat with Martin,who got me to buy the excellent Whitey album.For...

anti-war activity has become so "un-american" and "un-patriotic" in the mainstream discourse that coverage has become downright surreal - diminutive, if at all, and often followed by much lengthier coverage of PRO-war rallies by small groups of fanatic christians and bush supporters! things are really getting weird over here...
