these summer days are melting into each other quite nicely and i am thoroughly loving it. the usual routine is to head down to the beach hut with jacqui, sam, oscar, jenny & billy to eat bbq food and do crosswords. now and again jenny will pluck an incredible word from her labyrinth of a brain or complete a 7x7 rubiks cube in ten minutes which will ( Read more... )

dear livejournal, sorry I have neglected you recently for sun in the funshine, but it has been a hectic month.

i have got back the majority of my university marks now. i got a 63 for my dissertation, which is quite good but i feel i could have done better. however, a 73 for my screenwriting cheered me up as it is my joint highest mark ever. so i'm ( Read more... )

quite literally, everything. i think i've dislodged a few vertebrae, lost a few teeth and there is definitely some internal bleeding somewhere. alright, so a bit of an exaggeration, but my goodness that was a fantastic gig. ben, rob, jacqui and i tootled into the pyramids just in time to catch the start of rolo tomassi. i'm glad i had listened to ( Read more... )

i hate the apprentice. really fucking hate it. i want everyone of those soulless capitalist bastards to fail. those kind of people are so far from everything worth valuing in life. and they're run by an idiot who has completely destroyed his own business.

the journey back from portsmouth to newbourne is one i'm so thoroughly used to now i'm starting to rate my favourite service stations along the way. in case you're interested, i hate them all. although the worst by far is thurrock, i imagine it to be much like purgatory- very very grey, sky obscured by a layer of fog/smog, uncomfortable plastic ( Read more... )

Lots of people annoy me, for many different reasons. Yet they have never been put in a single place for me to direct my hatred. Until now.

This list is fully modifiable so figures can be added or removed upon popular demand. Come join me in celebrating the world's one true certainty: a mutual disdain of people.

The people in this list shall be added ( Read more... )
