Valentine's Day

Valentines my arse. Annoying for us singletons and annoying when in a relationship.

It's another over-hyped commercial event to squeeze money out of consumers to do or buy things for loved ones when really that's done all year round anyway, or at least I buy things for loved ones throughout the year already anyway.

Sheesh, muppets.

Anyhoo, rant over. Didn't wake up at mine today, not what I was expecting on Valentine's Day hahaha.

Called my Dad to see if he was ok picking me up to take me to theirs for tea and they're having a lovely romantic meal in. I think it's great that. Been together over 30 odd years and still hold hands and cook each other romantic meals. Awwww

Buggered up my evening though, I was hoping for feeding-time! Grrrrr hahaha

Weather's getting better! Geed-up sausage! I CAN'T WAIT FOR SUMMER!!!
Can tell it's almost here, lighter mornings and warmer weather! Woop!

Not quite expecting weather like this in Blighty but you know where I'm coming from!



Another nice easy(ish) day on proactive duty today with Stu. Could do this full time, almost. Haha.

Early finish, home in record time. Jacketed spud-aleros and tuna cheese melt... mmmm

In a Full House Poker Tournament from 9-10 where I came 496th out of about 3000 people playing online. So not too shabby a sitting.

Then, onto BF3. Another corker of a session, eventually starting to learn some of the maps. I say some as it's going to take a while to learn these bad boys properly. Don't think COD's been in the tray since I bought BF3.... suppose I'll have to dust it off as I'm 'supposed' to be organising a MW3 tournament....


Off to me scratcher.

Nytol

Food; Lincolnshire sausage sanger. Shortbread. Jacket tattie n tuna melt.
Gripe; Nay tea at the rents.

Monday.... :o(

Awesome weekend had, best I've had in a long, long time.
Some great times, some mint places and above all, awesome friends. I am truly lucky to have such amazing mates. But, back to Earth with a bump.

Still feeling a little yukky today but been advised by the gaffer it's going to be relatively quiet - awesomesauce.

Stu and I have been put on Call-out Duty. Proactively contacting our customers who may still be on an old version of our software. Brilliant. Really.

Listened to hold music most of today which was a nice breather from usual manic-Mondayness.

Not much to report today. :)

Off out to my friend's for tea and a film - yippee! could get used to this, although she may start charging me rent!

Best Monday in a long time had, nice n easy but not too quiet that it dragged.

Went to Charley's to pick up my phone charger. Not there grrr.
More mentions of Kendal Calling Festival though - looking forward to this!!

Left Chaz's pad and went to Pizza-Pizza on Chilli Rd. BBQ Parmesan with mushrooms, bacon and Monterrey cheese. And chips. Awesome.



Watched another Death Valley, this is an awesome series, soooo glad I spotted this one!



Then watched Drive with Mr. Gosling. Awesome film, brilliant. Would watch again and might well do.

Earlyish night, good sleep. Mint.

Food; Sausage sanger. Shortbread, not to be confused with sweetbreads.. Parmesan
Gripe; Still a little ropey
Game; Scramble

Sunday means new shows day!

Woke up on the sofa at 6am so off to bed, wakes up about 3pm.

Tried some food, sicks it up. Mint. Tried to relax again, sick again, bloody room spinning....

Sat and watched Battlefield Los Angeles. It was aaalright. Was in HD so looked nice.

Thought the day was a right off till I get a call from me mate... Fancy popping over for tea & a film? Yes, I'd like that. In the fragile state I'm in, I'd be quite happy to be looked after, feed and watered. Why not?

Surely the state I've been in this weekend will ensure I sleep ok, right..? Erm, no.

Watched the BAFTAs, a program on the true story of True Grit and the wikky-wikky-wahwah Wild West. And started watching Death Valley - UTF ftw!!!



Didn't have owt to eat, couldn't face food....

Early night but no sleep...

Food; N/A
Gripe; How I feel
Game; CBA

How bad's my head??

Up early(ish) - toast and nice coffee.

Clattered from last night still. Lee dropped us off at Regent Centre. Bus home.

Texts flying in from the Heaton lot. "A couple of drinks is all we're out for" - cool, I can do that.

Off to Noire/Echo. Few pints in there, quite a throng of us now. Dan, Alana, Tracey, Charley, Maya, John, Kylie and me. Mint!

Taxi to town with a view to another pint or two then home. This didn't happen.



Indigo, to the bar, 1st round of drinks ordered to find John can't get in as he's got trainers on. The doormen don't seem to mind I have trainers on...






Drinks inhaled, off to Opera. Muchos, muchos cocktails. Beverly Hills Iced Teas. Uber drunk now.


Supposed to be off home but next thing I know, I find myself dancing, on a stage, in Beyond with a group of lasses. Bus home? Nah. This is great!!

Had a bit bother in the loos. As I'm trying to wash my hands, the 'toilet assistant' squirts soap into my hands. Handy but unnecessary. Goes to leave the loos when he physically stops me! Reckons I owe him money! I say I owe him nothing because I didn't ask him to. He says it's his job. He stops me leaving the toilets several times till I tell him if he does it again, I'll have him done for assault. His 'mate' says he's off to get the 'authorities' - I welcome this knowing I've done bugger all wrong.

5 burly doormen storm the loos, ascertain this kid's being a tool, give him some verbal grief and apologise to me.

Sorted. What a plank.

Danced some more then got the last bus home - wicked night.

Tried Xbox, no go. Tried watching a film, uh-uh, ain't happening.

Puts some tunes on, this is better... awake at 6am on the sofa, fully clothed.


Awesome.

Food; Toast & coffee. Dixy Chicken Burgers.
Gripe; Toilet assistants!
Game; n/a, I'm simply not playing *folds arms*

Fraser's Day

It's only Funky Friday. Once again my favourite day of the week. Admittedly Saturday's kinda better as you have all day off and can still have a drink as there's still Sunday. But me, I'm all for looking forward to stuff as well as actually doing in, sometimes more so. So, I like Fridays as you have the whole weekend to look forward to and Friday's the start to the weekend. Which, as I type this, starts in about 5 hours.

No milk in the coffee machines again but, although none spilled, I ain't crying over it. As per above, it's Friday and not a shit is given. I also happen to have milk with me so happy days.

Off to Lee's tonight, can't wait. Few in the Mile 1st then off to his. Might even get to have a sing-a-long so muchos cervesa required on my part - I can see me either being sick or passing out....












Of which I did neither. Few pints had in the Mile then off to Lee's. Great times. Pizza, nibbles etc. Plenty booze and song. Was great to have a sing-a-long.

Amazed by Lee's collection of whiskey, of which the following pic was just some of his collection....



Whiskey Cupboard!

Sing-a-long










Thankfully I didn't have any whiskey as I'd have been in a right two and eight. More than I was anyway! haha




Food; Sausage sanger from Chill. Dad's quorn 'chicken' curry. Pizza, nibbles etc.
Gripe; None! I feel happeeeeee
Game; Let's just see ay?

Praline Surprise!

Hola!

Toast & coffee. :oD

Next door neighbour warned me about the sheet ice as I left the flat this morning only for me to dismiss his warning with a nonchalant wave and 'I'll be alreet mate, ta' - to then slip and land right on me arse. Bugger. All the buses that come my way pass a bus terminus first, which is on a bank, which meant they couldn't move, which meant I was late getting into town. Again. Are these people even qualified to tie their own shoe laces??? Surely it wouldn't be too much to ask for them to have a bit of a think on and maybe leave earlier or, get this maybe have a bag of grit on each bus???? Sheesh









So, got into town, uber late. No buses at Haymarket for 20 minutes so jumped on the Metro to Regent Centre as there's a better selection of buses from there. Turns out the trains are running all over the shop too 'due to the lines not being used to the bad weather' (excuse from the driver...) - Christ, a little ice and this country falls to bits. Bits of shit. Bits of frozen shit actually, which the transport 'providers' should then be shot with. Tossers


A busy Thursday? wtf?
Means it goes quicker I suppose. ftw

Bee El Tee for lunch, yummy-noms.

Dad picked me up from work with my washing me Ma' did for me. Awww. At least this time she didn't iron me jeans!
Took me home via Asda for a quick stock up on beer for tomorrow. Dropped the washing off then headed into town to get my old iPhone unlocked for Paul, her new owner. Everywhere was going to charge me 50 quid to unlock it or 20 to jailbreak it! I can jailbreak it mesell you useless bunch of money-grabbers...





Looking forward to going to Mr. Fraser's for a little get together tomorrow night. Should be a larf. Few beers, possibly a little sing song! Man of Constant Sorrow?

Should I say or should I go? Sleeping bag or last bus home?

Battlefield3 online c'est soir avec mon online-amis. Awesome. COD what? hahaha


Food; Toast&coffee. Sausage & beer-can sanger. Frosties
Gripe; Bloody buses, again.

Mid Week Blues

It's a quiet day for postings you may be glad to hear haha. Not much a gwan.

Looking at selling my iPhone 3Gs - need to get it unlocked 1st though and Orange have quoted me flamin' 20 quid - it's my feckin phone! Thieving bastards. Not only has it cost me about 600 quid over 2 years, they then want me to pay them 20 quid to unlock it - it's my fuckin phone!!!!!

I've ended up with a bad head from getting angry about it. Nobody seems to agree with me though, everyone at work says it's fair enough as why should they let me have the phone unlocked for free - IT'S MY PHONE!



Bloody coffee machine(s) at work never have any bloody milk in them!! Problem is I still end up drinking the black ones so I end up having had too much coffee! Aaargh!

No wonder then my head's pounding! At least tomorrow's Tirdas.
However, I happen to have a handy stash of Garries at work, I have no problems swallowing tablets but plastic coated ones stick in me throat. More grr ha ha.

Paracetamol. Awesome - a tablet I know I'm ok taking...

Head better now.

I've gone from starting saying there's nowt to blog about then go off on a rant ha ha

Rant, over. Busy day at work, over. Trip home in the baltic cold, over.



Home, warm, toasty. Mint. Well, after a couple of jars in the Toon at The Five Swans. Could get used to this real ale malarkey.






Talking of Malarkey, I aim to start rewatching Band of Brothers on BluRay. It's going on right about now.



TTFN.

Food; Frosties. Garlic cheekhan sanger. Fish-fingers, cheeps n been.
Gripe; See above haharrr
Gamer; Game Dev Story and Grand Prix Story both on iOS.

Felt good to stop over at my friend's last night - great food, film n company.
Again, again!!


Getting chilly on route to work, wrapped up so much I look like a Juggernaut from Call of Duty! Or a rioter...









'Early' arrival at work, bonus! No milk in the coffee machine(agaaain), anti-bonus!
Am I the only one that cares?! Ha ha

Beef n mayonnaise sarnie for lunch. Less carbs than yesterday! Took me own beef in, haha, so just needed a buttered up bap! (sounds a little rude that)

Keep forgetting it's my turn to organise the birthday club at work, as it was my birthday last! Must remember tomorrow! *sets alarm on phone*

Ran oot of tabs today! Seems every time I stop at me mates, I end up with no tabs the next day.... someone smerkin all me tabs?? Ha ha


On Tuesdays the lads play *football so I'm online alone tonight.. awww ha ha
*I've not been invited back since I turned up in lycra boxer shorts.... hmmm.

Skyrim it is then. Not grumbling like! Orrrr, Full House Poker for an hour or two!

Went with Poker. Might have an invite into a cash tournament in the pipeline... *gulp* so best get some practice in!

I did ok. Ended up on the Double Diamond table, the middle of the three table levels. $25,000 up though.

Dropped a bean while eating tea and caught myself giving it a 'telling off' - is this what living on your own does to you? You accuse inanimate food objects of trying to liberate themselves?! In his defence, I don't blame him.

Christ am I now empathising with a bean. Oh good god. Bed now before I move onto the meatballs...









PS Yes, I know it's another slag of a dinner but cheesy-beans-and-meatballs on toast is lush with a nice cuppa.

Moon Day

Early up, bloody bin men grrrr. I'm sure 6.55am is illegal and if not, bloody should be! But, I had a mint sleep in me freshly made bed in my recently done out boudoir.


Just need a proper bed-side light so I can start reading some of my many Stephen King, Terry Pratchett and WW2 books.








Tried watching the laptop in bed, don't know how people can do this, screen's far too small. It's ok for net-browsing, pron and Faceache but not for watching films, tv or stand up comic shows. Still chuckled though. On the flip side though, I suppose it was handy being in bed chilling while watching it so it wasn't all that bad - and once hooked up to my sound system in the bedroom, sounded a hell of a lot better too.

Loving my new scenic route to work, so much more to look at. And the view from the bus/train's not too bad either! Better than getting the 'Sage' bus to work, all full of people I'm gonna spend all day looking at anyway lol

I'm also loving the fact that Mondays are becoming a little quieter! \o/ Yay

And I am back to my 2 breaks per day shift. 30 minutes lunch with two 15 minute breaks either side. Awesomesauce!

















Ha ha, don't you just love it when you're facing a window etc, or in this case a lift door at work, and you catch a fit lass eyeing you up from behind in the reflection. Made my day that has. More sauce of awesomeness!

Lunch of carbs on carbs of Carbonara & cheeps



On a bleaker note, spotted something on a certain someone's Faceache page today that puzzled me a bit. But, if she wants to post false stuff about me online, it'll come back n bite her on the arse. The rumours appear to be true, bloody attention seeker...



Check this out, armed police, riot police, ambulance, fire-brigade etc had to called to the flats opposite mine this afternoon as a guy facing eviction threatened to blow the flats up!



I'm at my mate's tonight again for tea, was supposed to go yesterday and I declined as it was a school day but it was more because I was so busy working in the flat. Which is now my pride and joy! Yaay! \o/

Having full Sunday lunch with all the trimmings! Mmmm cushty noms. Maybe a film tonight. But what to watch? I fancy that Ryan Gosling & Steve Carrell romcom that's on at the minute.
I've fetched 3 jumpers today so should be all cosy, like toast. Mmmm toast.

Tea/dinner smells lush, had a bit nibble on the meat oo-er and it's lovely and juicy!


Tea was delicious. Watched True Grit, the Cohen brothers' remake. Fantastic.
Great company, some Smirnoff, then an early night ;o)

Nytol.

Food; Turst. Sausage sanger. Carbonara n cheeps. Sunday roast of juicy beef and all the trimmings

Sun Day

Hungover, much? Not too bad considering. Time to sort myself and the flat out. Today is going to be a constructive one so going to try my best to not put the Xbox or PS3 on. Well, not until I'm happy I've made some headway in the flat. Cupboard in the lounge totally empty. Most of the contents in the bin. Next step, start to remove wallpaper in the lounge.

Lovely morning, nice and bright. Sat having breakfast of Frosties and coffee while looking out from my balcony.

While emptying the lounge cupboard, I find some old vinyl. Some old Motown records and some Rod Stewart. I'm Facebook friends with both Steve Smoove and John Turrell of Smoove&Turrell fame so I messaged Steve to let him how - and he wants to meet up to collect the records!

Feeling slightly star-struck!



Rearranged the bedroom and changed the bed. Almost like I have a new bedroom! Lounge sorted ready to start decorating proper this weekend.

Been invited over to a mate's for Sunday lunch, but declined, school day tomorrow and I'd rather get a good nights sleep. Which I only seem to get in my own bed. Love sleeping in a fresh bed too! It's just a bit of a shame I don't have 'tv' in there as it'd be canny to watch a film in bed then just fall asleep - suppose I could watch a film on the laptop if pushed but it's no substitute for a large HDTV. And surround sound.

Watched more Breaking Bad. He's a proper bad ass! This is good.

Poker now. And a cuppa. Looking forward to getting me mitts on a coffee percolator this weekend.


Listening to 'Waste' by Foster The People while downloading Tim Vine to watch in bed, going to trial watching something on the laptop in the absence of a tv... Why'd I sell it?!

I is outta here like a stole somethin'!

Sat a day

Up. Sexy beer-can sandwich with Chop Sauce and a morning coffee with todays paper. Sorted my payment to Boomerang no thanks to bloody Lloyds TSB!
Opened up an account with HSBC. Seem to be the bankers with the least amount of horror stories!

Popped out to the shurps for supplies for today's marathon Battlefield 3 session. Crisps, beer & tabs and the ingreedaments for making a chicken & pork stir fry.

Awesome sesh on BF3 with my usual squad - great fun. Spookily found ourselves in the same part of the map in the same scenario that the pic I used yesterday was taken! Weird

Nothing better than drunken tomfoolery online with the lads. Although for anyone reading, I advise against trying to operate a fighter jet while drunk ha ha, always ends in tears. Driving, not so hard as if you let off the throttle you just slow to a stop but slightly different in a jet! Gerronimoooooo. Thank the lord for parachutes ha ha!



Half time stoppage for stir fry grubbage. Yummy noms.

Receive an invite to Belinda's for tea next Saturday, awesome. Is the pasta-masta cooking? It's going to be my turn soon. Best get this flat sorted.

Not today though! Back online to join the squad in Karkand. Thought I had the 5.1 surround on too loud as I hear banging from doonstairs. Turns out they can't hear my 'music' so I can crank it up another few notches!

Can hear Uncle Allan singing downstairs with I assume Uncle Jimmy, class. Good to hear people enjoying themselves, even if it does sound like a karaoke for deaf people.



Starting to run short of beer and it's too late to shop. Stella thru a straw it is then, and it works - I'm battered, so much so I have to knock BF3 off due to eyes not working properly, they were playing home AND away. Went to jump on Full House Poker but no community tournaments on so decided on bed. Nytol

Happy Fry Day

It's only Friday, lovely people!

Great start to the day quickly soured by the absolute fuck-tards that are Lloyds TSB. I spoke to them this weekend gone to make sure there was enough money going into my account to cover the standing orders and direct debits due this week. I'd even gone back into the branch and spoken to a 2nd cashier to make sure I had the correct information. I'm now receiving emails today advising me my payments haven't been made - I AM FUCKING SEETHING. Managed to get an early finish from work today, I'm going postal when I get to Lloyds this afternoon, it's one fuck-up after another with these incompetent w*&*ers.

Rant over, I'm not going to get stressed about it. They'll sort it I know they will..... - which they didn't.

Burger n cheeps for lunch. Although the lad serving said "They'll be ready in a minute", it took 10. So I got free chips. Result. Kind of.

Fingers crossed the rest of today does without spoiling it any more!!!!!

Got an early finish to go see Mr. Bank Manager and to file my umpteenth complaint. They're making it easier and easier to make me switch to another bank. HSBC maybe?
The branch manager couldn't even give me a straight answer even when I'd only asked the time. Feckin useless.

Off to the rents for tea though, fricassee - it's possibly one of my favourite dishes!

Tea was lush, washed down with some bubbly. Wor kid's got his keys for his hoose!
Mint. Went round for a deeks. Lush pad, chuffed for him. When's the BBQ?

Home, Battlefield3. Can't fault this shit. Three of us in a squad including mortar support, medic support and the three of us working together as a team. Whether it be carrying each other via transport, giving suppressing fire or reviving downed team-mates - sublime. We won most of our matches too so BONUS!
Did get a fright during one firefight, at dusk, I was hunched over a rock giving sniper support over our base when Leroy Jenkins came flying over my head. In a truck. Hahahaha - Leeeeeeeeeeroooooooooooooooyyyyyyyyyy Jeeeeeeeeennnnnnnnnnnkiiiiiiiiiinnnnns!

Furs Day

Shit the bath.

Both buses on time, got to work for 8.30! AND, get this, the coffee machine has milk in it!!! Will wonders never cease?!?! Although they may get cold, I might stock up now like someone preparing for worlds end.



What is it with lasses walking round town wearing those padded black, shiny jackets with pink stitching on the back saying "Paul's Boutique"??
Don't they realise it makes them look like they work at some cheap, tacky nail bar? Especially with their badly slapped on fake tan and that god-awful messy, lacquer infused 'bed-head' hair. Ha ha.. Fools!

Was supposed to be over at a mate's for tea c'est soir, not happening. I'm deffo stopping at mine tonight. Warm, cosy and I can't afford to be as tired for work as I was yesterday. No no no. No uncomfortable bed or sofa for me tonight!

Rents for lunch tomorrow, fricassee for tea so can't say no to that!

Steve sent an odd text again, grrr.
It's puzzling, I just wish he'd send me a text that made sense instead of cryptic messages - Steve, just text me what you want to say and stop fannying on! Ha ha

Anyhoo, nice n quiet at work today leaving more time to discuss Skyrim anecdotes and compare adventuring stories. Arrows, knees, sweetrolls, you know, the usual. Awesome. Stu catching up on some light(aircraft) reading at lunchtime!


Lunchtime of tabs and ham sangers. Mmmm, tabs ha ha.

Home, tea done in record time. As Belinda calls it, a slag of a tea. But it's my slag, and I was hungry. Filled a hole anyway. Oo-er. Laaaaaaaaaaaaa

Got hammered on BF3... I needed my usual squad with me, I can't go all COD and be Lone Shoulder here, it doesn't work - need to be a team. There's no 'I' in team, but there is 'me'. But me on my todd on a big map? I'm cannon fodder. I'm a sitting duck shaking like a shitting dog.
Poker time then? No online community tournaments on tonight so just jumped into a standard online tournament. And got turned over. To start with, but I'm on a roll me like! Went from owing the cashier $5000, I end up with +$60,000 - quit while I'm ahead.

Breaking Bad S2, ep2 was class. This is just getting better n better.

Hippy Hurmp-a-derp Day

Shattered, yawn.

Right. I'm stopping at mine during the week from now on. Couldn't get comfy in bed last night - so onto the sofa for me. Grrr. Wouldn't care too much, was relatively comfy & warm and I could have a tab if I wanted but her next door neighbours arguing, with their dog? Arguing, with their dog? Till 3am..... Weird Walker ey?

Bought some antacid tablets that are advertised as being for the relief of heartburn, indigestion and flatulence. Side effects, although not massively common are, heartburn and flatulence. What the frig are these people selling us?!?!?!?

Another top day at work, bolstered by that fact I think more people are starting read my blog - I feel loved! Kind of. haha



Was supposed to go to the rents today but as last night was a last minuter, I'd not been able to prepare for today properly either financially or cigaretterally. So, home James.

A little Battlefield3 online with he who shan't be named online. And a cheeky beer. Only stopped to make a chicken and pork chow mein. And watch the Toon match. we're winning as I type this - will amend later if we lose. We won. But you knew that didn't you?

Oh lord, now both my parents have touch-screen Samsung mobile phones. Christ. At least the text from my Mam had her name in it.
My Dad's 'new number text' was this "This is my new number" - he sent it to his entire phonebook.... *facepalm*











Some awesome funnage on Battlefield3 avec le garcon un-namable online (gonna stop with that, can't be arsed haha).
Love the way the team-work works on BF3, it's sublime. This officially, although frustrating and difficult to get used to, makes COD look like a right kipper. Still love COD like, love the franticness of the visceral fire-fights of COD but I adore the epic scale and scope of Battlefield. Storming an oil refinery in the desert in a tank, with your squad mate in with you while you cover your infantry squad mates planting a bomb all the while 'that music' from the TV advert booming through the surround sound is unparalleled I can tell you. McLoving this!

Anyhoo too late for Breaking Bad, off to bed. Nytol

Looking forward to a full nights sleep. I my own bed. Love me scratcher.

Choose Day

Today, I chose to wear the pants I had on yesterday that resulted in a torrent of verbal abuse. It was a choice I had and I took it. I am quite happy with my jeans and no amount of cheeky, witty remarks is going to stop me from wearing them! Ha ha ha



Had my monthly 1-to-1 today and, not wanting to tempt fate, seem to be doing well.
Looking forward to my interim APR so I can discuss what I've done well and tailor the second half of the year to ensure I get my bonus this year, I've missed it the last two... Sad face.



Tea at the 'rents tomorrow then a mate's on Thursday (possibly) so need to think up something for tea tonight - last nights was pretty good if I do say so myself but after the state my guts are in today, shant be having it again tonight!
A certain someone might say it was the offal, I'll say it probably because it was a week old...



No Poker Night tonight, or at least I don't think so - will update later. Fingers crossed I'm wrong. So, may jump back on Splinter Cell Conviction, Forza3, Far Cry 2 or even Battlefield now Mr. Shellard has invited me to join his lot! Awesome! I may learn somethin here!

Was going to watch Breaking Bad tonight - love where this is going. He's a proper bad ass now. LOVE IT!
But, quick change of plan and an early finish. Being treat to a Chinese courtesy of a mate..
Was delish, stuffed-to-bursting! Off to a mates now for a couple o cans n Bridesmaids. Might even watch a film ha ha ha... *face-palm*

Tea and film were great as was the company, she's crackers... hahaha

However, here's hoping I get a good nights sleep! ;o)

Happy Monday

Happy Monday Reader(s)

Albeit desperately broke and gutted to boot, actually had a mint weekend. Topped off with the acquisition of BF3 - the obtaining of described as such to avoid any further confusion and subsequent comments on Faceache ha ha. :oP

Anyhoo. Monday. Quiet? WTF?? not complaining.
Buses to work turned up on time and arrived on time - what's going on here?

Piss right royally ripped out of me for wearing my striped Diesel jeans. They're saying I look like Beetlejuice! At least they weren't overpriced Mr Tully - how much was that jumper in the sale, £145?? I'd be interested in how much it was when not in the sale!
I actually like 'em so IN YOUR FACE unbelievers! Rant over. :o)

Face on fire eating the remnants of last nights keebab. Arse on fire to follow.


Just said 'thanks mate' to the bus driver on the way home & got a funny remark. Sorry pet but you look like a dude.... ha ha

Missed Burns Night the other night so had haggis wrapped in bacon with creamy mustard mash. Mmmmmuckle noms!

Tried an hour on BF3 but I'm just not feeling it - getting some argumentative texts tonight which has put me off my game... bloody women. Pain in the feckin arse.

Decided to retread some old ground today and plumped for Forza3. Awesome but some pratt (me) must've decided to delete the original profile from my HDD so have to start again!!!! At least it's fun I suppose! Awesome, I have a Fiesta - and not the rag-mag with hanging readers-wives in, no.

Forgot just how good this is, dare I say better then it's younger brother? The music's awesome! Bring it on, just keep off the grass, it'll only slow you down. And is illegal. Ha ha

An hour on Forza3 then Episode 1 of Breaking Bad's season 2. Loving this.

Sunday, Sinday?

10am start. Mini Weetabix and a quick read-up of the Battlefield3 Guide for breakfast.
Decide on Skyrim after I spot GrimmyD on it. Controls are a little lethargic compared to the blistering pace of MW3 or BF3 but drop straight in doesn't take long. Like falling off a bike, apparently.



Now I've garnered 500+ picks, decide to deliver the Key to the Sepulchre.

Quick Daedric quest then 'Back to Karkand'. Loving the Support Class.

Just remembered John asked last night if I'd have liked to go to his for curry but for the same reason I didn't go to Benson's I didn't go to his. Kinda wished I had now.

Right, quick hour on BF3 then back to sorting the flat. Got the other lounge cupboard to empty before taking the doors off.

4 hours later and still in Tamriel. Not revisited Karkand yet. Need to go shopping for food. Needs to be done I suppose.
But not before John "I've got nothing better to do" Noble drags me to Osborn's 1st. I'm sure it was just because he wanted to meet Gutierez
Ha ha
Then supermarket via Ricci's. Love him. John that is, not Ricci. Hmmm
*scratches chin*

Watched the last two episodes of Breaking Bad. Class. Brilliant show! Then Star Wars Episode 1, not the best of the 6 but I like watching them in order.

Food; Mini Weetabix. Kebab. Raspberry sponge cake & custard.
Gripe; I'm still not fully competent on BF3, grrr
Game; see above
