Went up to Leeds for New Years Eve.  Got to the hotel earlier than planned (Yay!) Found out I was sharing a room with Moomin, Sam and Sarah.  We had crackers on our beds so we all pulled them at the same time (once we got our arms sorted)  I got a little pen in mine but Sarah's disappeared :(  We read out the jokes and they were the worst jokes in ( Read more... )

I am writing this blog from Philadelphia Nottingham.

I'm supposed to be in Philly but i'm not.  Its had all winter to snow but the weather decides its gonna throw a big snow/ice storm on the East coast of America the day before I'm due to fly there.  This means my plane is stuck in the US.  Therefore my flight is cancelled.

Saturday was a great day ( Read more... )

So after my trip to the zoo, I went back to the hotel and got ready to head down to the venue.  After my little walk the other night I decided that I would walk down.  As I got to the venue a woman passed with a cat around her shoulders.  I saw some people hanging around the front of the venue and I was about to ask them if they were fellow ( Read more... )

Apparently I made Ricky Wilson's dad cry back in May...

Ok it wasn't just me, but without me and Hogie and Moomin he wouldn't have cried.

I've never actually met the bloke....

Due to being a complete Kaiser Chief obbsessive (even more now that I've just followed them around England...)

Tracey very kindly gave me her spare ticket to the York leg of the Gonzo tour so I left York early and headed up there on the train.

Met up with Tracey and we went to the venue, we both got given two glowsticks as we went in, but by the end of the night I had about 10!

Last day of music at the festival which was quite sad because it had been fantastic!  The retarded burger van excelled itself today.  Got Helen to get me a cuppa because the queue was too big.  So she ordered a tea for me and a coffee for her, everything seemed fine until she came to drink her coffee… because in it was… a teabag!!!  Yes that’s ( Read more... )

We have new characters in today’s edition…

Hogie - no-imagination off Kaiser board

Maria - off Kaiser board

Carl - Mr Maria, also off Kaiser board.

So got up Saturday and said goodbye to Helen who was off to get to the front of the queue for the arena so she could get on the barrier for Kaisers.  This meant her indulging in her favourite past ( Read more... )

Got up Friday morning and went to get a cup of tea from the burger van not far away from where we’d camped.  This turns out to be the most retarded burger van n the history of all festivals.  Seriously?  How hard is it to take one order of one cup of tea?  Its not bloody rocket science.  When we were all ready we went down to the main arena and ( Read more... )
