So maybe I ain't the best looking of guys
I'm a sucker when I drink and a sucker when I lie
I'm livin' my life in a pit of snakes
But I got those bastards petrified...SHAKE!!! biggrin

HaHa! biggrin yeah that new profile pic is cool.

Alton Towers! - I've not been there in absolutely ages (must be just under 10 years or something). We used to go all the time when I was a nipper, and I loved it.

There was a really funny picture that one of my friends had. You know those one's that get taken when you're on the rides yeah? Well there was one of those of all of us, taken on one of the huge loopy rides. Everyone looks all happy and smiley and excited, except for me - I have my eye's firmly clenched shut, and a look of pure terror on my face! shocked hehe.

Bite your lip
Hold your tongue
Don't interrupt
I have begun
To sort this out
We'll make a plan
Tomorrow morning...

Don't sit down
Leave your coat on
We're going straight out
Leave the door open
We'll sort this out
And we'll make a plan
Tomorrow morning...

Okey-doke then, that Download report...

FRIDAY

Met up with the very lovely Caz and her bro at Leeds station and drove down where we met up with Troubadour, Vicky, Nadine and MrMuddle. Okay, here's my one big complaint of the weekend - the organisation for the festival was truly dire. We met up onsite at around 8:30 and by the time we'd...

Hehe, cheers for the link- them's some naughty jams! biggrin

The regal cat queen thing? Well, I am the Queen of the Fish, (as appointed by a number of acquantances) and the Queen of the Fish happens to be a cat. I don't necessarily harm the fish, I just merely tap on the glass of the fishtank with my kitty claws. Or something.

Thought it would be amusing to dress as a Fish Queen for uni's summer ball and it was, 'cos of people having their photos taken with me- should have charged 'em for the pleasure really...

nickolai:
Christ! Sounds like you've been having a fecking great time mate!

That weekend sounded superb smile

I'm full of (probably misguided) optimism regarding Euro 2004. wouldn't it be lovely if we actually won the bloody thing for once! whatever

As for your crush go get her! I wish that I kept running into cute little emo girls. Would make for a very welcome distraction.

A Sno-Ball is kind of a tiny bit like a Slush Puppy btw. They come in about a million different flavours, and, like the child that I am, I get hooked on them whenever I'm over in New Orleans. tongue

So I'm back. Four words - WHAT A FUCKIN' WEEKEND! biggrin

However...at present I'm absolutely shattered due to having a total of ten hours' sleep over the last three days. And, my sense of planning being what it is, I've got a band rehearsal tonight meaning it's likely to be late in the day before I emerge from my pit tomorrow. Full update of the weekend's...

So not a bad weekend all in all (apologies for lack of usual quote here but my mind seems to be blank at present tongue ). Have got the following things this weekend:

- Some top punk albums off of the rather fantastic Captain Oi! by the likes of the Business, Infa Riot and Action Pact. Much bedroom-based headbanging to ensue in the next few days...
