monday i worked which was chill and i hung out stickering a lot in the stockroom. afterwards i went to brixton where morgan blagged me into the windmill gig and i saw livers and lungs and no other bands haha. got to hang with morg, kelly, fijjy and lexi among others. it was so awesome. lovely to see them and drink and just have lots of laughs. miss them all loads.
tuesday went to enfield and that. went to rach's house afterwards and we hung out and had so much to catch up on. she gave me lots of good news about her and lots of pity for me. i ate LOTS of junk food. saw the owner of v&m on the bus home, turns out he lives in finchley.
wednesday was tired at work and just wanted to go home. left early and went to central. stuffed it with shitloads more junk food, hotdog, burger and milkshake from new v&m. awesome. met sarah, timmy, alf, kim, kathers and tommy at ben crouch. had a couple pints. hung out hard.
thursday worked a nice short day then went to peking palace to meet tobin for his birthday meal. got to hang out with nic and tobe's mum which is always a pleasure. ate delicious food. came home and got my first reasonably early night of the week.
yesterday i went to work which was super chill cus wayne wasn't there. hung out loads. worked a bit. came home and was aggressive. had about 90 million people over for vince's birthday party, got drunk and had lots of fun. many a round of uno. fun with alf's camera. hangouts. seriously good hangouts.
went to cafe diana for breakfast this morning with a posse. came home and watched van wilder with tobe and his frenchies. went to the library which sucked a bit but got an interesting book. came home again and did a bit of tidying. alf came round with meerkat manor. SO CUTE.
was supposed to be at bridge & tunnel tonight but decided at super last minute i wasn't up for it. boooooo. money and tiredness. booooooooo.
i really am pushing it when it comes to money this month. i've got about £60 til payday, and £30 of that's going towards my bastard credit card next week. ow. |

saturday i worked at canary then went to central and walked around for aaaages looking for some yummy food. wasn't entirely successful but got chatting to the owner of v&m who excited me a lot about food and gave me a free apple pie. then i went to streetlight at ulu. IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE.
sunday canary again, then went for a pint with kelly and ryan after.
monday worked like a proper canary. went to the pub with kelly and ross after and watched them eat. had a couple of pints. felt a bit empty
tuesday tried really hard to be good at work. ended up working 11am-11pm due to short notice refurbishment. me, ross and kelly were the only people who stayed to re-do the shop and kelly and the workmen left at about 10pm so i didn't have a chance really.
wednesday i got to enfield late and did 10-6.30. it was cool to be re-united with all the boys. i re-did the entire blu-ray section like a hardcore hmv motherfucker. was feeling well in-tune with track etc by this point. wanted to go to mouthwash @ the roxy in the evening but was toooo tired
sorted out my housing benefit on thursday and worked a late, which i was pretty grumpy for most of. went to jimi's clubnight at the macbeth after. kicka went too and i had the best pint of my life. was pretty cool
friday worked with the weekenders. was pretty grumpy again which sucked. money shit was getting me down. came home after and hung out with tobin, higginson and dina. tobin cooked vegan burritos and we played never have i ever with wine which was pretty fun. i felt a lot better about everything after friday's hangouts
yesterday stu and matt were in charge so work was a lot more chilled out. got some shit to do with travel expenses etc sorted out as well so i felt better about that. got to listen to the new lady sov album really LOUD when we did new release after close as well. oh and we closed early and got out at 7 which was RAD.
after work ross texted me and was like "i wanted you to invite me to yours" and i was like fuck it ok, then he rang me and said he should go home, and i was like shutup let's go for a drink. he was smashed cus he had been out on a stag do since 1. we went to kentish town anyway and drank wine and he came to stay again and i think he's nice and i told him so and he said he wasn't. which is also true. he's getting a new flat and a cat and i was angry with him during the week but last night i couldn't have cared less. anyway i took him to kings x this morning and the streets were well quiet due to it being easter. it was eerie.
today i spent all day lying around and eating chilli. i watched rules of attraction which was absolutely full of sex and would have been very frustrating had i watched it at another time which is lucky really. i also watched 4 episodes of darkplace so far. that shit is weird. it was my first day off in 11 days but unless i sleep loads tonight i don't think i'll be too refreshed tomorrow. |

things have been nonstop mental. the day i last updated i mainly spent napping and hanging out with the tobe. the goldie hoez went to a cheap curry place on hornsey rd. it was a bit shit but for £3.75 inc rice you can't complain.
anyway the tuesday i had a job interview at city that went a bit shit as i didn't really know what it entailed, safe so say i didn't get it haha. was a bit of an ordeal.
wednesday i was working at enfield again then han came up in the evening and we stuffed our cake holes in camden then went central for some booze. i stuffed it even harder whilst there
thursday back at enfield, loooong day
friday at enfield again, another looong day. in the evening we had some dudes over for drinks and laughs, which was cool.
saturday was canary good times. after work i went to kelly's and watched an entire series of i.t crowd one after another. ross is actually douglas. scary
sunday was work where people kept offering free stuff including a haircut which i need. then i went and ate lots of curry and saw joey cape but i was so tired i just wanted to sleep
monday i spent 11.5 hours at enfield which was just mental.
tuesday the md's came to visit which was yawwnnzzzz
wednesday i had a day off so i slept late. then i wandered around london a bit to see what the crack was. the crack was that stop the war do lame protests and the police won't let you near the good ones.
then i went to meet kelly from work and ryan and ross decided to come to the pub with us for 'a drink'. about 6 pints later i struggled to find my way home amongst throngs of england supporters
got about 5 hours sleep and felt haggard as fuck for work yesterday. met alf in the pub after though which was loads of fun
today was meant to be reviewing the jaya the cat gig at underworld but hours of till has melted my brain so i'm gonna make up an excuse for why i didn't show. cotched here instead
my week at canary starts here. woooooah. |

my internet keeps fucking up and it's angering me quite a lot. boo.
breakfast with my dad yesterday turned into all day hangouts. but everything good is shut on a monday. we went to cafe diana (obvs) for yums. then went to holloway for a bit. decided to jump on a bus to holborn to go to the hunterian museum but it's shut on a monday. so went up to euston to the wellcome collection but their exhibits are shut on a monday too. so we just ate carrot soup.
then we went to the british library and because the taking liberties thing had shut last weekend there isn't a new one yet so there's only this boring darwin exhib and the 'mnanky old bits of paper and books' collection. that was ok though. there was lennon and lenin, and the magna carta which is a load of old shit isn't it.
then we went to the hideaway for some pints and a shit chat. that was cool. i wanted to go for crispy duck but he had to go home. the bastard.
anyway then i came home and made a bit of a slip up and i'm not entirely sure how i feel about it so far.
this afternoon i went to crouch end (pronounce with a french accent) to pay off a bit of credit card and get some shit i needed. apparently i might be going for a pint with higgo later. we'll see how that goes...
the end. |

gonna bust out an update before shit gets OUT OF HAND.
monday evening i went to the hideaway and sat there for a while just reading and writing. felt like a grown up because i had a tab on my card. later to find out that tab pushed me over my (newly lowered) credit limit. LOL. ate peanuts and crisps.
tuesday i got spotify and fring and totally geeked out on the both of them. the internet and music had both been getting stagnant and these are both incredible revelations. i also went to chris murray/squab/skints/gecko at underworld. such a good gig.
wednesday went to camden with kathers and bummed around and watched her shop. i'm always the boyfriend who stands outside the changing room with her bag. then we went to big red for yum nachos. went to max's and he gave me an internet cable and a brush off. met sibs in crouch end and walked to finsbury park to find a shop. got shit faced.
thursday can't remember what i did. not much i guess. had some good phonecalls though.
friday had job interview at the job centre in aldgate. went quite well i think. i mean, i may not be the most experienced person but i didn't get nervous and i got on with one of the two interviewers really well.
then just chilled out all day and spoke to hotknives. went to rach's house in the evening for her housewarming. saw a boy on the bus i thought was going to the party and wished he had. he so nearly walked to the right door.
also managed to get a lot of boring stuff done this week like tax forms and job applications but you don't want to read about that.
yesterday had work which was chill. then went to deptford for the vic eviction. saw some good band followed by tarantism. they got cut off due to police arriving. there was a scuffle and barricades and a chopped and the pigs didn't fuck off for about 2 hours. during which time i nearly pissed myself and hotknives jammed some rad shit with this dude.
eventually at about midnight inner terrestrials played which was shitting amazing. love them so much. the sound was amazing by the way, and it was on a stage outside. such a good gig. then restarts played but i wasn't bothered and wanted to go home a bit. at about 1.30 i left and got home by 2.30 which is good stuff. slept a bit then work today where i was shitter than usual which was a shame because i was meant to be training. afternoon was better. discounted veg and houmous sandwiches YUM
tomorrow gonna see my old man for breakfast, yay free food
week is shaping up to be boring unless i get offered tons of rad jobs. mark thomas on thurs, bonus. reviewing and maybe interviewing apparently. ummm....suggested questions if it comes to the crunch? i think i destroyed all the ones i had previously written in some kind of voodoo ritual |

ok so i went to the crap work on tuesday and the manager said "don't bother coming in for the rest of the week, it's a waste of time, but i'll pay you til friday." i dunno how true that is, but i ran away before he could change his mind. spent the rest of the day chillaxing and making pancakes and feeling a bit ill.
weds i couldn't be bothered to go to the education demo which was a shame. but i went to camden and sorted out all kinds of admin shit as well so that was cool. can't remember what else i did. i made green curry though. yum.
thurs i went to post some cake to harri and luke. bumped into pj in the post office so we hung out for a bit, that was really cool. went to m+s to hand in uniform. also went to hmv moorgate which is pretty cool. then went to laura's to chillax and eat her bread for a bit. eventually pootled home and did not a lot except for dying my hands pink.
friday chris came back from reading and said he wanted to swap rooms so we did. so now i'm in the box room. but i have a nice view of the garden. don't think i really like it but i'm gonna give it a go because i don't have much choice. in the evening i went to reel big fish + suburban legends + random hand. had a genuinely awesome time, even though it was totally low key. haven't seen/heard suburban legends in so long.
saturday went to work which was AWESOME as ever. had lots of fun with kicka which was cool. also said bye to vince as he's going to asia for 2-3 weeks. in the evening chris had some dudes over for his birthday so i ate coco pops and hung out.
sunday work was AWESOME yet again. i did reps for the first time since being back and actually enjoyed it, and did chart shit and re-stickering and alllll that. went for MASSIVE chinese with tommy in the evening to celebrate our veganism's 2nd birthday. <3 peking palace. really want to have their crispy duck + pancakes sometime soon.
today hasn't been as productive as i'd hoped when i wrote my list of stuff to do. i've done none of it yet. i don't have much optimism about the rest of the day being better. i know i should be getting some paid work as well, but i can't be bothered. wanker.
however i did look at a load of pictures i'd never brought myself to check out on facebook. and wished i'd done it before because it makes everything a bit simpler. just gotta remember it all in the future rather than being a dickhead all my life. |

did pretty much nothing thursday except go to work. got there an hour early so read my book. got into it now.
friday went to the shops and laura's, still got to work early. idiot. not as early this time though. work is fucking COLD. i've never been so happy the weather's getting warmer.
yesterday went and met harri in russell squ. we went for some drinks in the angel tcr. saw journo laura which was cool, i guess she's living there again now. convinced harri to stay. went to v&m for burgers. eating's not cheating. then met vince, nic and his lady lizzy in the hideaway. it's awesome. got beered. went for peking palace. came home and watched skins.
awesome valentine's day.
today was hungover but cooked epic breakfast harri + jas style. stuffed it. did not a lot else. just tidied my room. had a nice weekend, not looking forward to work tomorrow. want the dole job. |

didn't sleep much monday night. so 7-3 shift at work was painful yesterday. 8 hours of till. then i came home and had the best nap. ad came up and we went to see bomb the music industry, dave house, and sam russo at windmill. awesome. hangouts with many good dudes.
today i skived work and went for a civil service written exam thing. did alright, want to go to interview and get a new job NOW please. went to canary wharf and bought spaced afterwards. then went and had a haircut and bought all the bread in the world.
why are boys so loud? chris is doing bass/trumpet practice and vince is doing his puffy exercises. also, why do people always tell me to do things when i never ask other people to do stuff?
i'm trying to stay up late tonight so i can hack work 3-11 tomorrow. |

saturday i can't remember what i did really. i know i didn't go dancing at bloomsbury lanes and instead went and sat in laura's house and drank half a bottle of port
sunday me and tommy missioned it to saaafsea. we bumped into adam and his girlfriend on the train which was awesome. drank more port, merrydown, and beer. booze ftw. watched chillerton and kelly and southport. strategically missed the other rubbish band. froze our tits off. stayed at my rents house which was chill
monday we went for cocktails and ken's amazing 1/2 pounder veggie burger. hung out at harri's and drank more merrydown. found out that gaslight was cancelled due to snow (major SUCK) and that trains were also cancelled for the same reason. however, managed to mission it back to london fuelled by lots more cider, and went and made snowmen on the southbank which was pretty magical
tuesday ross came over and we hung out all day. then i moped around all evening and managed to miss the entire last hours webchat because i was on the phone to morgan
wednesday i had my induction day for m+s food. it was just boring paperwork and health and safety tests. yawn. i told ross i can't see him anymore and we had a good phonecall about it all. cue more moping
thursday i sorted out some benefits stuff and dicked about in camden. also went to see laura. in the evening went to fire in vauxhall for the king blues big issue tour thing. it was lols. really good sound though, best i've seen them in ages
friday i went to work at inspiral where chris works. i chopped a lot of veg and ate free food. the dirty rev gig was cancelled due to snow so i just sat at home drinking wine and watching attenborough dvds. awesome
saturday i worked at inspiral again. went to see rach afterwards and hung out for a little bit in her house. went down kingston after and met everyone in spoons. drank the beer. went to see polar bear club at the cocks and basically just got battered off my face
sunday i made loads of roast dinner and ate it all. sat around and watched dylan moran and sublime live. did boring things. went to ryan's bar in the evening which was AWESOME. squab are literally the best band ever. clayton blizzard is an amazing human. can't wait til next time
today had my first day at m+s liverpool street. was on the till nearly all day so it could have been worse. some guy looked like he was dying on the floor when i went to get my bus. weird
sarah's coming to stay later. i might have a nap now. yeah |

tuesday i was too lazy/poor to go out to lou's birthday. i suck
wednesday i tried to sort out some housing benefit stuff which didn't go too smoothly. in the evening me and vince went to cut ups album release show at purple turtle. pine hill haints didn't play so hardly anyone came, which was a shame, and i thought the apostates were kind of sucky. but apologies and cut ups were wicked. got to have mad hangz with some really good dudes as well.
yesterday i did next to nothing as i got up late. we had goldie ho quality housemate time. soup hoez fo lyf. we did a big tesco order together. then i went to the cross kings with ross and drank a lot of beers which i mainly did not pay for. there was a band with a fat bill bailey singing. unfortunately i forgot eating is not cheating and was fucking drizzunk and missed the ryan's bar gig. ah well
today i was hungover for a really long time. tried to sort out more benefits stuff. went and bought a big dish and made a lasagne. my life is so INTERESTING.
however i also got offered a job which means no more boredom, more money, and SOUTHSEA THIS WEEKEND. these are all good things.
i might go to rach's house tonight if i can be bothered, but i don't know if i can. tit.

today i woke up at 9.30am and decided there was no point in me getting up despite being very much awake, as i had nothing to do today and all i would do is get bored and eat food if i got up. so i went back to sleep until about 1.30pm. being jobless sucks. i am beginning to feel totally unmotivated. i did ALL the washing up in the house today and watched half the sublime live dvd which is awesome. i'm saving the other half for later. i need to do some reviews today, and apply for some jobs. i need to go to the library sometime but i am saving that to do tomorrow. so so bored.
at least tomorrow it's pine hill haints/apologies/cut ups.
i have been listening to the new broadway calls cd as i gotta review it, and i can't believe how poignant the song 'bad intentions' is.
i have been sitting here eating biscuits and chatting to zock. kinda cool. kinda weird. kinda biscuity. |

- FRIDAY i went to kingston for apologies, the cut ups, the computers, and serf combat at the fighting cocks. missed serf combat which sucked, but got drunk and had fun
- SATURDAY i went to rach's house for birthday fun. i was meant to be going to roxy as well but i was feeling a bit ill and couldn't really afford it so lamed out
- SUNDAY i got a lift with them apologies boys to brighton to their gig with bangers (BANGERS!!), serf combat and break the habit. it was tommy's birthday and sarah drove kelly, ben and el down. which was just awesome. also sebby was particularly drunk which made for funny viewing. i was sober for once but you wouldn't have been able to tell
- MONDAY i had ross over and cooked soup and watched blackadder.
- in the evening i went to laura's house and drank port. for no reason other than port is awesome
- TUESDAY i went to the camden agency and then went to sign on. they are literally all cunts at the job centre.
- WEDNESDAY i had a job interview for the m+s job in euston. actually managed to get in this time.
- han came up in the evening and everyone came over for pot luck. there was so much good food involved, and loads of good dudes. i had a few brews and ate about 4 plates full of savoury stuff before loads of cake and other dessert. amazing
- THURSDAY me and han went to central and literally walked around all day. had food at ben crouch then milkshake from v&m (and saw fucking GRAHAM LINEHAN on greek st...he literally walked out of a cafe and was stood right next to me...and was talking in his lovely irish voice...so cool), walked from covent garden to bond st, hung out in hamleys, then back to ben crouch for booze
- FRIDAY i went for a final interview with the m+s people...will find out how that went soon, i guess
- got in a car with those apologies dudes again and went to dorktown for a gig with them and serf combat. so so much fun. got hammered and let paul black tax do his first ever tattoo on me. we stayed in hotel rooms upstairs
- SATURDAY we went to alf's house in the middle of the countryside and met his mum and dog. ate the BIGGEST breakfast ever...bloody love food communism...and then watched them play guitar hero
- then got back in the car and headed to MOTHERFUCKIN SOUTHSEA for southsea diy's first birthday. met my mum for curry. heard lots of good music, hung out with people i've missed a lot, sang along LOUD, and played the biggest round of 'apologies, i have fun' i've ever experienced. and watched cow and chicken, of course.
- SUNDAY i woke up in harri's bed a little confused. cooked up another epic breakfast with her. hung out and watched peep show and half a weird movie
- went to my parents house and cooked a cake with my dad. had a generally nice time. cuddled doggles a lot
- got back to london for pj's show at the cross kings. saw the drunk french dudes who slept in my house last time. saw neil sutherland and 'friends'. hung out. felt tired
- TODAY i did nothing i needed to do. and i've got a bunch of stuff i need to do. my lack of productivity doesn't even surprise me any more.
definitely finding it hard to adjust after tour. haha. blaaahhhhhh |

my mum came to visit on tuesday. we hung out all over london. she met troll and pasty. we ate at v & e. it's awesome.
yesterday i wandered around and half arsed looked for a job. got distracted a lot. tommy came over and we made truffles and soup. bev came over. watched blackadder and got drunk. went to nasin and got smashed and danced and sang.
today woke up to bev and tommy. was v hungover. went to uni and picked up portfolio. got distracted from looking for jobs again. went to friends meeting house for a palestine solidarity rally. saw mr benn and ol' tariq. went to big red and shot the shit with kathers.
was all quite cathartic but i needed to have done more today. tomorrow i have an interview thingy for an agency. i also need to do my online assessment for reed. and i reckon the dss is gonna ring me up for my dole interview. and i need to sort out the gas and electric. hectic.
oh also i found £20 on the floor today, just after i'd found out i had no money in either bank account. FATE.
in other news i have a massive crush and i'm all fluffy brained. idiottttt. |
