Feel like I’ve not been on in ages

Firstly, good luck Adam - thank you for going on my site, I’m glad you find it amusing.

Secondly, Chris I’m sick of you saying “You never mention me” maybe because you’re a boring ming. But I’ve mentioned you now anyway so there you go.

Has an interesting thursday & friday last week.

On the Thurday morning, I almost fainted in the bathroom. I felt a pricky heat rising in the back of neck & head, my stomach told me I was about to vomit, my ears rang as though I had stuck my head in a giant bell and I steadily went blind. Shit, I thought. This is like what happened on that year 10 geography trip but with ringing ears.

I then proceeded to blindly unlock the door in a panic and lie on the floor outside the bathroom (as if I’d lie on a bathroom floor urgh) until my eyesight returned shouting “MUUUUUUUUUUUUUM” but she didn’t appear so I said “Dad” and he waddled out the room, told me to go back to bed and could I please move; he needed a wee. So I did.

THEN on Friday, I was stood outside Sarah’s house with Scott talking when a suspicious green skatty car drove past staring at us. We ignored it, but then Scott said a few minutes later “Hey isn’t that that car again?”. Me and Sarah turned to look at it as it did a fecking 360 degrees spin, leaving skid marks on the road and screeching like a banshee before sloooowly driving past again with 4 identical bald, scouse looking heads staring intently at our reactions with the windows down. I seriously thought they’d lost control and were driving into a tree.

Oh if only.

Happy New Year, and blah de blah

I really like the Guardian magazine you get with the paper on a Saturday. It’s the only newspaper related thing I read (Except maybe Stella or cheap crap like Take it Easy). But yeah…I’ve always wanted to do one of the Q&As you get in em and being nosy I always read it even if I don’t know who the person is (most of the time I don’t).

So with the joys of the internet - here is my Q&A!

What is the trait you most deplore in others?
Blatant lying and tightness
