Went to the 2 brewers

Went to the 2 brewers last night [well we went to kazbar too but then moved on] where Pam Ann was on stage. Unfortunately so was I. Pam’s act is a skit on AIr stewards and airlines and must be seen to be believed. However she does a good line in audience participation. I was dragged up on stage to do some percussion accompianment with a plastic teddy bear tambourine. The one saving grace was that als dragged up on stage was an oz sheila called Kelly. Her freind Louisa was also brought into the action and we bonded later post show humiliation style. Granted I had no tampons removed from my clutch bag and displayed to the entire pub! So it looks like our search for a new fag hag is over! We did a quick number exchange after getting some gossip on Pam. She too hails from down under and is well known to our new found friends Louisa and Kelly.

Stor have introduced Stor


Stor have introduced Stor Troopers and I spent minutes planning my cammo outfit :o)
All I need now are dogtags and a jack russell dog accessory! I was toying with the idea of simply using the skeleton as a lot of people think I am unreasonably skinny.
some
of the gang… davo meg

meg just came to me

meg just came to me with a piece of paper with the word “intersitial” emblazoned all over it. It means in between allegedly. So I guess that is like mezzanine – in between floors or vestibule in between the hall and the outside world. blatant use of long words for no reason if you ask me…

Dave at work just sent

Dave at work just sent me a link to computer humor which I thought was kinda funny – granted I have only looked at the acronyms as I am a bit hectic today. Not even time for lunch yet today. In fact come to think of it I haven’t left the office all week :o(
You know the kind o fthings you normally get mailed and put to one side to read later. They all seem to be linked here as I recognise some of the headings.

Americans just can’t do QAF

Americans just can’t do QAF it would seem. Maybe they should stick to friends and young americans. Imagine though if we tried to do friends in the UK who would we end up casting?

oh my god! Having grown

oh my god! Having grown up in ‘a posh suburb of Liverpool‘ I must say I read with interest Meg’s most recent post about book buying habits of people from posh suburbs of Liverpool. I mean really – buying books to match the curtains. Reminds me of my Ex’s Sister a lot though. They had a set of shelves in the dining room with a set of the reders digest classics – you know the ones – all bound nicely in leather. I’m sure they where picked for aesthetics rather than titles and none of them looked to have been opened much less read. They did look nice though… kind of posh in an upper middle class sort of way.

party replies are coming in

party replies are coming in thick and afst so I can’t really back out now :o)
speaking to people you haven’t seen in ages is a good way to spend the evening – in my protest against gratuitious TV watching I managed to speak to 4 friends so far and email another 2 and SMS a further 3. woo hoo. Now off out to take Jack for a walk.

I often thought I wasn’t

I often thought I wasn’t rich enough to be heterosexual. Now I fear I am not rich enough to be gay. All this going out is an expensive business. I have taken to leaving all forms of credit and debit cards at home when I visit the local as cash back is offered at the 2 brewers. I mean who thought that was a good idea? At the supermarket yes but in a pub/club when you are already a few quid down on cape codders you will sign anything to keep them flowing. Or just in case I fancy a cab instead of the night bus…

Elric the new flatmate is

Elric the new flatmate is addicted to TV in a really scary way. Within micro seconds of entering the flat the TV is switched on. Whether this is for comfort or not I’m not entirely sure. Yes I do own 3 TV’s and yes I do have both Sky Digital and On Digital plus a VCR and multi region DVD [erm I see a pattern emerging here]. Just because I own them doesn’t mean I feel the need to get value for money from them by having them constantly in use. Don’t get me wrong I enjoy vegging in front of the TV as much as the next person but I really do draw the line at a rehash of old carry on film clips put together disjointedly in an attempt to make it look funny and saucy. I mean talk about melting your brain. My friend Jacs bought me some books for my 30th birthday last year and I was amazed by how much I had forgotten existed outside that little flat screen. I think lots of people were hinting actually because FF also bought me books. I have yet to read memoirs of a geisha but it is next on my list. I am unable to read more than one at a time [low attention span I think]. So although I have enjoyed their selections I have set out some of my requests in my amazon wishlist – just in time for yet another birthday. They seemto be almost annual these days.

Talking of Elric as I was he seems to have been a good influence. well not him actually but the presence of someone else in the flat. I want to run a household beyond reproach since I am now sort of responsible for it’s presentation to another human being. When it was just me and a select few people I invited it didn’t matter that much. Now however anyone may turn up and I would be horrified if everything wasn’t in order – okay so I am very prepared to be horrified. I mean really who has time to work play and tidy up?
