Blue Saturday

as an outside observer, i enjoyed it immensely. I understand the standard experience is somewhat more unsettling

i want a full description of grace's slapdash table setting.

ah, i think i see where i'm coming across as overly harsh now.

I mean decorated, with paint etc. It was a red cat, or so i was informed.

i like the sound of this grace character.

a bad workman always blames that boy next door, the fox from dora and my gf, in that order.

<3<3<3

i'd have had to hide my head in a cupboard so she wouldn't see me laughing.

my face grants me few enough advantages, but luckily enough fierce disapproval is a specialty

if you neglected to say "Swiper No Swiping!" then you're at fault afaik

it's not rly my place to learn the code or do any actual disciplining, as far as i can work out i'm only there to do the driving and provide fresh furniture.

and to admire red cats.

up until yesterday anyway

sometimes people (i.e. mostly Mrs V) tell me the drinking is a helpless brain disease that's got me in its pincers but on the other hand you just get bored of dullards y'know?

also some kind of "Ravers Binge" and "Black Velvet Band" mashup wd be number one for a couple of months

i have been free of the curse of the drink for about a month now, an unhappy accident of schedules.

It's gonna get ugly next weekend, is my gut feeling.

got a friend of limited musical imagination who keeps telling me that Blackout are a deliberate parody. When you worry about this stuff it's always a spectacular missing of the point imo

the bits of this that don't feature the slightly Pound Shop-looking Shamen themselves are my fave video ever

Advice to new MC's
Be original most new MC's all sound the same and copy other MC's stuff. The only way u will get recognized is if u are original and bring the scene something different to any1 else. This is why blackout is a big success, all the MC?s have got there own style's which certain types of people adapt to. So go home and get your note pads out and your pens and get to work!

FACT: all the best UK MCs have had a kids in the community element to their work

my old man is gradually coming out to me about his depression, which secretly i've known has been there for a long time. but the unspeakable truth between us is he's scared of decaying and dying, i know exactly what it is because it's the same fucking gene he's passed down to me, and we talk about football and argue about politics cos neither of us wants to tell each other we're scared - him because he's a big hard practical dude and me because i've got nothing to tell him that can help

which is the unbearable secret fuckery of life - nothing any of us can do can help

reasons i moved to Hull #6 in a series

hi nv, sorry to hear about your dad stuff. i've got something similar going that way and then i look at my two children and wonder what i'm passing onto them behaviourally and have passed to them genetically. she's starting to show the introspective side but i hope that's just a teenage phase. anyway don't know if you've heard this but it's good.

heartily recommend that final zevon album. it's sad going but a great statement.

oh shit i do know that song, i'd forgotten. good move for a drunken maudlin sunday afternoon, lol

here's another (cracking open the carlsberg)

subtle combination of 'ow my head' and 'oh shi i need to find somewhere to live' this morning

good luck with all of that. I'm seriously thinking about quitting the drink but, what then?

serious, nv?

:(

i dunno i need to have long chats but i don't think carrying on as is will work

like one of us is peeved that the other one hasn't changed and one of us is peeved that the other one has :)

least appropriate emoticon ever, imo

Hope it 'works out', whatever that means, yknow

sorry if my good luck above seemed flippant, didn't think through the implications properly. But, hope whatever happens is the right or acceptable outcome - this sorta stuff is often surmountable if you both want it to be (otherwise there's no way me and L would still be together)

no i didn't take it the wrong way. probly shouldn't be going on about this really but hey sometimes you need to vent.

hang in there nv

3 parts ouzo
1 part creme de cassis
3 parts 7-up
ice
let's go :D

tastes like the best Benylin ever

imagining what that tastes like is like trying to imagine a new colour

it's a winner believe me. syrupy, slightly cough-mixturey, shd be wearing a dressing gown and smoking a hookah with it tbh

sceptical, quite frankly

tho i admire yr suggested alcoprops
