What has my flatmate been up to? Sat here watching the world go by. The greyness of cheap instant coffee spirals around in my mug, matching the greyness I see out the glass wall next to me. More work upon work making Orange’s site look all christmassy. I hate christmas already and it’s not even November yet. Spent the weekend being chilled. Failed to go out for a quick drink after food with Liam on Friday. What was meant to be a couple in the Swan after our chicken/cheese/sunblushed tomato/new potatoes (very) al dente and spinach mealything that was rather yummy...er...where was I? Yes, what was meant to be a quick drink ended up with us bumping into first Jon, Tom and Paul and then Kenton and Lloyd and rolling in steaming at around 3am. Oh well. Up and not feeling too bad on Saturday. Very tired though, in retrospect I should so have had a disco nap. Watched some telly with Liam then he headed off to find his Sister and I headed off to cash a cheque and then trundled slowly up to Shepherds Bush with my camera stuff for an amazing Bit Phalanx session at Ginglik. Photos here. Got to meet a friend of Liam’s called Alex who was cool, as well as meeting Liam’s sis. I blagged free entry (ta Léigh!) in exchange for my amazing photographic skills and so set about snapping the various acts. Mostly I was foiled once more by it all being incredibly dark, but bleh. Sorta got some good shots. Saw justg, peoplepoo, debaser as well as the aforementioned onelittlespaceman. Decided that next time Bit Phalanx are in London I’m going to stab people until they come with me. We need more freaks there, it was outstanding. I left at around 1ish I reckon. Two buses home and I arrived safe and sound at 3 at which point I collapsed into bed. Woke up at 12 on account of lack of sleep, which was nice. I usually wake up at 7am regardless. Pottered about a bit and then abused mogwai until he got his shit together and we both biked off down the canal towards Tesco. I have one of those little bike bells that you get on modern bike that just go “ting” instead of “ring ring” - it’s a bell with a single bendy plastic bit that twangs the metal rim. A not very strong bendy plastic bit, so it would seem. I pulled it down and let go and watched it “ting” and then watched the handle fly over my head into the canal. Hmph. Bought FAR too much shopping at Tesco. TJ was complaining somewhat about the weight of it. The big girl. Mine was twice as heavy as his. Was fun though, especially the whole centre of gravity thing being all wrong on account of very heavy bag. We got back and weighed the bags because we needed to. They were that heavy. TJs weighed 1st 9lb. Mine weighed 3st 9lb. And now my back hurts Cooked TJ scampi and chips. He didn’t think he’d ever had scampi before. I grew up on scampi, perhaps it’s an Essex thing. I think he’ll be wanting them again though. Damn they were good. Bought tesco value seafood sauce. I was correct in my assumption that it was simply tesco value mayonnaise and tesco value ketchup mixed I think. Watched Episode II - Clonez (on purpose). Suitably amused. There’s a short on the second DVD about R2D2 and why he hasn’t been in many other films. Apparently he’s very hard to work with and likes the ladies a little too much. Failed to have an early night. Failed to sleep at all well too. Had a very odd dream whereby there were a load of us stuck in a tent that flooded. But all I cared about was my bike, even after one of us had died. And then there were a load of us stuck in a game whereby we were given different clues at different points and offing the other teams was allowed. I was just going with the flow until I got trapped in someone else’s house with a creepy darts game going on. The darts kept bouncin
