this week has sort of sucked
My hay fever has kicked in with a vengeance the last few days. Sneezing, swollen eyes & all that stuff. Thankfully its only tree pollen that affects me badly & that doesn't usually last that long.
My mp3 player has died a miserable death (dropping it may not have been a great idea
) so I've got to walk...

I can't buy one at the moment, I've got too much else to fork out for at the moment! Download, Holiday, my birthday, a new bike (I'm using my housemate's at the moment) My computer is crashing every 10 minutes, so I'll have to get some more components, Beer, Cycling garments, more beer, new shoes, and some more beer.
It's just going to have to wait.

Good fucking effort mate!
It's the big one tonight
Bristol Rovers v the Shit
Winner goes to the millennium stadium for the final of the "watching paint dry" trophy. Loser gets endless grief & abuse from the winners.
The Shit should win, after all they are going for promotion in the division above us, but you never know with football (except the premiership of coarse thats so predictable its...

It's been an odd week. I've either been full of energy & pretty much bouncing of the walls or I've been exhausted & feeling like shit.
here's a another favourite song
here's a another favourite song
today was a good day (apart from work obviously & the complete lack of valentine action )
Rode my mountain bike to work for a change & took the "scenic" route home. I only intended to take the quick off road alternative to my usual commute but the sun was shining, the trails were deserted & the views were stunning (the mud was deep &...

I know, I know. I'm ashamed. It's my lot in life to disappoint those who look up to me.
Just remember, I do these horrible things so you don't have to!!
My housemate has now become intent on cycling across the whole of Australia, from Perth to Cairns. I don't know if I respect him for it, or think he's a bloody loony! Although it has made me want to get a bike and at least explore the local area.

Wow, that looks really cool. Although I had a brief look at the course and stuff, I'm taking it that it's still a race? I'm liking the idea of touring rather than racing.
Not much to say so here's another song for your enjoyment
the_happy_pig:
I really hope you realise that if that was Invitation to the blues I would have been sobbing like a baby.
the_happy_pig:
*sobs like a little girl*
I love this song
the_happy_pig:
Yeah, that's very true. I can't help but notice a youtube video of the opening song, which I've seen a few times now.
The Isobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan gig last night was as amazing as I expected it to be.
There were a few annoying things though.
Why the hell do people go to a gig & then talk all the way through!!! I know I wasn't the only irritated by it. I heard quite a few people complaining about it after.
I taped the show only...

There was supposed to be a massive bunch of people I know going to that one, and I didn't see any of them.
That's a real bitch about the minidisc player. But they were taping the show, so I guess thats small consolation. I was lucky enough to be stood in a place where people weren't talking during the set. I did get some pictures on my phone, which I'm quite pleased with. Message me if you want any of them.
It was a very, very special gig though wasn't it? And I loved that they finished on 'Wedding dress' although a big part of me was hoping for 'Hit the city', even though Isobel's voice wouldn't really have worked.

I think I'm changing my mind already
My ticket for Mark Lanegan & Isobel Campbell arrived today It's for london not the Bristol show as I originally planned though. I needed an excuse to take a day off work
I've got my cycling legs back. After 3 months of being either unable or too lazy to do much on the bike I've finally recovered that edge of fitness which makes it less...
