the aggressive beggar

Came off the phone to my mate last night. Wife asks "not seen him for ages, what's he up to?" Me "away shooting this weekend" Wife "what's he shooting? Peasants?"

I'm sure they'll be fine, thanks for your concern.

We drove up to Perth recently and just before the roundabout at the Porsche garage there’s a road sign with “the earth is flat” scrawled over it in spray paint. The kids and I had a wee chuckle about it, when I then turned to the wife I could see that she was deep in thought. As I could hear the gears turning in her head I burst out laughing, the following is word for word. me: f**k right off, you can’t be serious wife: no, no I know the earths not flat, I’m not fucking stupid. me: what you thinking about then? wife: was just wondering, how long have we known it’s not flat? me: - silence, waiting in anticipation................... wife : like 30 years or something? tears and snotters everywhere. My 14yo in the back is crying and choking with laughter, stammering out “Galileo!!!!!Galileo!!!!” In between gasps.

Struggled with Catch 22 until just past half way, then it just seemed to click with me and got right into it. By the end i didn't want it to finish.

Good to see John Squire out enjoying himself.

Roma. Bored me out of my fucking nut, i usually get sucked right into subtitled films but this actually sobered me up and made me want to go to bed on a saturday night.

Homeboy Sandman & Edan @ Bongo Club Fucking Wow. I’ve always said I’ve never been to a bad gig in my life. This was top 5. The build up was brilliant, support was amazing but when Edan took the stage it fucking lifted , some quality mixes came then the big man came up on stage (and nearly fucked his heid on the girder a couple of times) the album was played interspliced with some classic cuts from Edan’s Beauty and the Beat. They both had the crowd in the palm of their hands. They played for an hour and a half but I could have listened for another 2 hours easily. Took the wife along who is pretty much repelled by hip hop but even she loved it. Got some photos with Edan and Homeboy at the end of the night, homeboy took some time to talk and get some better photos after it ended. Edan is the fucking man, psychedelic hip hop with effects pedals. Magic

just got tickets for these guys 5th feb at the bongo club. Edan's 2005 album Beauty and the Beat is a fucking masterpiece and what i've heard from this duo has got me buzzing for the gig

Mums brand new, except for having made us go to church every sunday until we were old enough to refuse and explain to her that believing in god is completely absurd. Bizarrely, she used to wake us up every morning by screeching at the top of her voice "go to school on an egg" My old man thinks its acceptable to tell people to their face that they are fat or need to lose weight, this in spite of the fact that he himself is a fat c**t and has been diagnosed with diabetes. He is also never off facebook nosing about other folks business and commenting on it.

Muse - Plug In Baby

Was impressed with Das Plastixx, sound was a bit muddled where I was standing though. Some good songs, will check out online. Elvana were indeed tremendous, i’m hobbling today and have a number of bruises, always a good sign.

What a fucking thread. Read through again today. By far my favourite over the years. Would just like to add this .......
