My bank account is in the red. Thats going to cost me another £20.00 in charges. They say it creates additional paperwork. I find that hard to believe in this modern day and age of the paperless office and internet banking.

I'm putting a noose round my finances in the New Year.

I've got a bad case of 'joggers nipple'. Its hurting like hell and my nipples were bleeding. My shirt chaffed them while out running because I forgot to smear some vasaline over them. Reckon thats why I was in a bad old mood last night. I ended up traversing my ass out the door and into town at the very last minute with a friend. I bumped into ( Read more... )

Now your clean, your free.

Now take you best shot.

'Bank Robber' by The Clash: one of the best songs ever recorded.

Joe Strummer, 1952 - 2002

A man who stood by his politics and never sold out: No matter what the price.

He is gone, but the music will live on - forever and ever and ever.

Last night I watched Rob Roy, (1995, Liam Neison, Tim Roth) great film, but why do they show them so late at night?
