Yorkie's Slow Journey Out Of The Well Of Despond (part 1)
Have had a good long read of the last entry while listening to the Adicts to cheer me up and decided on the following:
- At least the buses have been a bit better the last two days. Not having a car still sucks though.
- Gonna go look at some house prices round...

After eating I go out
The people passing by me shout
I can't stand this agony
Why won't they talk to me?
Madness - "Grey Day" (1981)
This isn't gonna go down in the annals as a particularly good week all told. So far, I've been accused by various people of being narrow-minded (for my taste in music inevitably), humourless (for not wanting to join...

Dude, I'm a manager in a city centre pub, so I totally feel your pain on the student front.
Fucking wankers.

Hey... I know this is a bit random, but d'you know of an old-school punk by the name of "Skum"?
clunk:
No worries dude. Yeah, the spewdents are filtering back, been getting steadily noisier round here. I don't mind so much, it increases the number of *ahem* interesting lasses around... so it's not all bad.
Except maybe when you're trying to get served in the Fenton or Packhorse

I wouldn't mind if I could find my place in life
I'm a fool on a string
I'm a bird with no wings
And I'm always crashing down
Antiproduct - "Bungee Jumping People Die" (2001)
So another week over. Not really much to tell unfortunately as my total lack of money is screwing up me having anything even vaguely resembling a social life.

i need to see this 'robochrist' if only to say i have seen a band called 'robochrist'
I know someone close could help
But it all still comes back to me
It's just the same old problem and the same old song
You never know what you've got until what you've got is gone
I'd try to tell you what I was thinking
But I don't even know myself

Back here again then. Well, it's been...

Its been a blinder. Yet again I ended up in the boot of a very old british car. Not the most comfortable way to travel the M602
Miniskirt Blues are fookin awesome! keep an ear to the ground incase they travel Leeds/Bradford way!

Hahah yep, I seem to always be hungover, its not good but I am going on a detox this week, loooong overdue
Hope you had a lovely Bank Holiday weekend
Hope you had a lovely Bank Holiday weekend
Some will annoy you
Or bore you
As they do
Just stop
Think
Calm
Walk
They try to make you take the poison
Try to get some kinda reaction
You don't need this situation
Ignore this irritation
Get your groove on!

Well it sounds like the scallies, the glam rockers and the bouncer are all first class twats mate. I wouldn't have paid the bouncer at all, and anyone who walks out rather than at least having the guts to tell you what they think isn't even worth your time of day.
nickolai:
"...but apart from that, it was a GREAT evening, honest!!"
Mate, I don't mean this in a horrible way, but that journal entry actually made me chuckle a tiny bit. I don't mean at your expense, it's just that you couldn't make some of that shit up!
You deserve full respect for doing all this stuff though. You really have a crack at the whole gig and promotions thing.

There comes a time in life when you have to make decisions
To mould your future 'cos tomorrow is another day
Well I've been sitting and thinking and I kinda see it this way
I'd really like to be a man at C&A
I don't really care if we're in or out of Europe
And I don't give a toss if inflation's up or down...

Though I'd come say hello, as you gave me a nice hello on the SGUK board.
Nothing better than moving out, especially someone you get one with. I'm living with this guy at the moment (i actually live with 3 other people, but the other 2 are cool) and he started off as a mate, not a good mate...but still a mate. more a pub mate i guess. anyway - i can't stand to be around him now...so..it's not where you live, but who you live with!
anyway dude, good work on the sat night in, just don't make a habit out of it.
easy

I certainly won't disappear mate. I'd stay in touch with you lot.
Nice one about moving into the new pad!
Nice one about moving into the new pad!
I'm in pieces
Though no-one sees it
I am stronger on the outside
It is easy when you know why
This feeling sad
It's not so bad
I've got friends who lift my spirits
I've got songs that no-one hears

I don't think anyone actually ever fully gets over anyone else mate, so I wouldn't worry about it.

woah, i loved kenickie when they were around...one of fave bands from back then... 
And as the daybreak fell flat upon its face
The iron sky came creeping up behind to take its place
And the rain fell like bullets from a gun
And the sky came and swallowed up the sun
So I buttoned up my coat
And I went out for a walk
Beneath the iron sky
Mega City Four - "Iron Sky" (1993)

Thank you!
So hopefully the big evil black cloud that has been hanging over my life for the past few weeks has pissed off for good now.
Not the busiest weekend ever - went out and got trolleyed in Bradford on Friday night where I successfully managed to get refused entrance to "Flares" of all places for looking too scruffy!
Hmm...big loss eh? I was gutted, honest...
