I went on a discover

I went on a discover scuba course last night with elric [the dive instructor flatmate] since he is movong out soon he offered to take me for free and as I was kinda apprehensive it was just as well. There is something fundamentally wrong with breathing underwater.
Excellent – was the only word I could think of – the entire thing was brilliant being able to see and swim and breather for ages made swimming infinitely more pleasurable – shame Chelsea pool has no tropical fish in it – I will definitely be going on the full course and dragging Steve to the gold coast or something when we do Mardi Gras next year šŸ˜‰

Completely unrelated is the fact that I read in the paper this morning about an entirely new ‘reality tv’ concept involving criminals, money for their victims and scolarships fr their kids… Where will this dull and lacklustre genre go next?

a few updates for you

a few updates for you then. I have finally managed to get a date from Elric when he is moving out – 3 Sept which is cool. I figured I would not bother having anyone else move in so that I would have the spare room and it would make it much easier when people stay over and the like. As with all plans though this one has fallen by the way side – Fabio was looking to move out of his place and has given notice and not found anywhere else so of course I have agreed he can move in – so I told Elric last night he has been replaced by a sexy young brasilian :o) – oh and he is also gay which is a bonus – bored of these straight boys not showering or tidying or cleaning…

so I have been a

so I have been a bit slack on the blog front the last few days – sue me. no really I do have a really good excuse – I have been busy at work and tired after my hectic weekend. I did receive the tickets from bmi for paris and another trip to amsterdam. I have also been looking for flights to sydney for mardi gras. Steve has decided to take the plunge and come with me šŸ˜‰

I am such a sheep

I am such a sheep – following the crowd. Ian
did it and Dean
did it and no doubt a few more will follow so why not me? It’s just like the
time when everyone was doing the old 10 things 9 true and 1 false.
I have: a sore back
I see: the toys on top of my monitor
I hate: all the questions people ask
I wonder: if it is going to rain at the weekend
I miss: my youth
I find: work gets in the way of my social life
I want: to travel
I regret: not very much
I need: nothing
I wish: I could move back to soho
I fear: pain
I hear: Love Muscle XX
I love: my dog
I smell: of ANF
I crave: security
I feel: content
and for the rest…

okay well I am off

okay well I am off to the airport now – amsterdam is beckoning – so I’ll leave you with the one in ten thing from ages ago that I have finally added as a seperate page for clarity.
