So yeah, the weekend had highs and lows.

It was great to see Katja and her friends again, I've not been down to Brighton for ages. The train journeys sucked, but there is something quite satisfying for a small town fella like myself to navigate across the greater london metropolitan area armed with a good hat and quite a lot of charm.

there was an...

Fuck, so tired.

I would appear to be the incredible oversleeping man.

And I'm more than aware that I need to update properly, and I feel that I've been neglecting some of you. But bear with me. Today I have to work in St. Austell (In fact I'm supposed to be there as I type this) then I need to get back, pack, catch a...

I'm back.

I'm tired, I had a really long drive back thanks to the M6 being closed for about 10 miles, which meant I had to take a detour of about 80 miles.

And I have to figure out how I get to retur the hire car a day late and still manage to be able to get to work for 8:30 tomorrow morning.

Lets go away for a while,
You and i, to a strange and distant land,
Where they speak no word of truth,
But we dont understand anyway.

Holiday.
Far away, to stay.
On a holiday.
Far away. lets go today, in a heartbeat!
Heartbeat! heartbeat!

Dont bother to pack your bags, or your map.
You wont need them where were going.
Were going where the...

I'm not really one for enjoying those days devoted to a particular subject. Like national chip day, national aerobics day. Even the big ones, like breast cancer day and remembrance day. Not that I'm miserable or too self centred for that kind of thing, but remembrance shouldn't be confined to a day, if there's things worth thinking about, why confine yourself to just one day?...

So I'm a little drunk now.

Question:

It's 5 past 11 and I have to drive to Plymouth tomorrow mornong. Do I crack open another bottle or not? If so, which one? I have a light and fruity Australian red, or a bottle of cotes du rhone.

And I've just watched Commando. Fucking awesome. Absolute wide scale death and destruction to a steel drum soundtrack,...

Right.

That's it.

I've bought you gifts, I've looked after you. I nurtured you through your sickness when we moved. Whenever you're feeling a little run down, I'm here to help you out. I'd even go as far as to say that I dote on you.

And yet, this is how you repay my hours of tender care. After all the times we've been together,...

I got a lovely new flat panel monitor. It's black and slim and bigger than my old CRT. It has shiny buttons on it. And it came with the wrong bloody cable. So it's currently sat looking rather nice and space aged on my floor.

The budget has spoken too. 'Thou shalt not go to the pub upon the endeth of the week. Thou shalt...

Just have to say that I've had the best weekend I've had in a long time.

A rather striking young lady made a superhuman trip down here from a rather long way away. I bought a great suit, had a pint or three on the banks of the canal at the double locks on a glorious sunny afternoon, had some amazing fish at the Cat...

A message to the age of 28:

Thanks very much, and fuck you. I'm glad that my life is taking me further away from you. You fucking suck.

29 is only half an hour old, and it's already so much better.

Thank you to all of you who've had to deal with my shit, thanks to those I recently met, for making me look forward...
