Last night whilst out walking Jack it was slightly damp – you now after a rainy day. After about ten minutes I hear a crunch and a tiny little squelch. I do not look down. I know I have just stepped on a snail. I do not need to see it. Yet I can’t help thinking about it for the rest of the walk. I wonder if the snail felt anything as I crushed it to death. I wonder if it died instantly. I wonder if it had feelings. I wonder if it had family or friends. I wonder if any other snails saw or heard this untimely death.
I’m not sure if I was being morbid or overly sensitive.
Cold showers
No I am not talking about the weather here. Although it has been showery here in London and also quite cold considering last week I was wandering around in a tee shirt.
I am actually talking about at home. No not because I am horny. Although after the tube encounter I could hardly be blamed.
No this is the sad and sorry tale of my broken boiler and the inept plumber. Wednesday he came to look at it and then was supposed to come back on thursday – so a couple of days without hot water – I could have coped.
Unfortunately It is now Monday and I still have cold water. He didn’t arrive on Thursday and called to say he would be with me on Sunday but unfortunately he had an emergency job to go to [my cold water is obviously not an emergency] So now he would like me to reschedule for Wednesday – a week later. Grrrr
I need to take a day off work too – which is impossible with my current schedule. Bah.
Anyone know a good reliable plumber in South London? Please?
love it
You know sometime you see a site and think ‘Wow, I wish my site looked like that’ well here is Daniel Regan, stylish and making me want a redesign…
Oh and it’s not just stylish either – there’s content too! I so sympathise with the magazine buying dilema. I think we all had one of those moments.
Oh and his brother has the same birthday as my brother apparently 😉
I am so crap
Okay so here is the deal. I’m on my way home from lunch in Soho and get the tube from Leicester Square to Balham and we have to stop at Kennington. So everyone gets off and we wait for the next southbound train.
I glance up at the other people waiting and there is a really cute guy looking at me. Well at least I think he is looking at me.
So thinking I really should make some sort of effort to look away he starts smiling and I immediately think I have a bogey hanging from my nose r something. No, he is genuinely smiling at me. Nice. The tube arrives and we get on the same carriage but different doors. He is still looking at me and I am stil looking at him. I’m thinking he is really very cute.
Eventually I muster the courage and decide I should go over and say hi, offer him my number when we pull into Stockwell and he gets off looking back at me.
I am by nature indecisive so debate internally whether I should get off and then say hi. By the time I have had this internal debate however the tube has moved off and the chance has gone. The only thing left would be to put one of those ads in the back of boyz. You know the ones.
‘Saturday 27th April around 6pm. Southbound Northern Line, saw you at Kennington station and we got on the same carriage. Me Camo bottoms, green jacket and baseball cap. You cute with gorgeous brown eyes. You smiled and I was too shy to come and say hi. Contact me on 0780 150 XXXX.’
pick of the searches
So when my brother isn’t playing with my cock he is getting drunk and sleeping nude?
Other than that it was a day for New Order World in Motion searches fueled no doubt by the FA announcing Ant & Dec doing this years Official England Anthem.
ANF catches up
Abercrombie & Fitch have caught up with the blogging phenomenon. Their most recent A&F Quaterly has an article with some links to blogger.com and a few others.
So can we expect a whole raft of new sites? Let’s hope they are photo logs and have as much naked flash as the quaterly does 🙂 They aren’t targeting the gay market though honest!
Walk for Life – 23 June
Walk for Life is now in its 13th year and has become the largest HIV and AIDS fundraising event in Europe. It is a great day out for everyone, taking in some of the sights of London on an easy 10km stroll along the Thames. Details of last years walk can be read here and in seen here, where the AOL UK team raised over ?1500.
If you want to go along register at: http://walkforlife.co.uk [team name AOL UK – you don’t need to work for AOL] or phone 0870 011 0022. Then just email me to let me know you’ve registered or pop a post in the comments. I’ll email people who’ve contacted me closer to the time to arrange meeting up and other details.
So that’s where I was
All this time I thought I was lost when in fact I was simply in the “interesting territory that lies somewhere between being lovers and being friends“.
