That annoying toys r us kids advert for Christmas just came on. I really don't like it.
I'm sat indoors kind of annoyed at something but not really sure what. I think i'm just gona chill with a Cherry Vimto for the night and watch 8 out of 10 cats. I'm off to manchester tomorrow morning. Spending the day there with Ruby and back to cheltenham in the evening because i've got looooads to do and i want to make sure that i get the promos and jingles for various radio people.
This house has serious roof problems. the third leak has sprouted in the ceiling. Last month my house mate Matt found a leak in his room, then last week one sprouted in the kitchen, and now theres one in the landing which is a dick.
If you're reading this on blogger this will be the last post... catch future posts over on wordpress at the new blog, Johnny's Blog Hole.

Post 298
So i'm fastly approching the 300 mark of my blogging history. This year has been the year i have post the most out of the 7 years i have been blogging, with 2009 as the worst - which is weird because lots of bad happened that year and i didn't say much about it.
But i've finally decided that a change is needed to the blog as it's been called "Rant station - What Goes On" ever since, and wordpress looks like it could be a better platform. I've imported all the old blogs to it the last while and a bit so i guess it's time to finally make the switch. so post 299 will be the bye bye blogger edition, and the new blog (With all the old posts) will be at http://policeend.wordpress.com, and once i've gotten used to that one i may delete this one.
Anyway i'm sure i will blog again tonight when i get back for a rest
Laters!

no surprises
So today started off strange. I had a dream about blackbirds in the kitchen and they were stealing all the Cornish pasties from the shelves. I'm not sure what brought it on.
I didn't get the job i applied for. I wasn't sure if it was for me anyway but i was willing to put the hours in and work hard. But oh well. At least i know better for next time. I think once thats done i need to work on making some cash with my editing skills :D.
And on the final bit... ive just got a bunch of books out so i can finish my assignment. Time to go home for some dinner!

Second Opinion?
I'm just hanging around on the web debating whether i should go to sleep or not and thoughts are whirling around inside my head and my lack of social abilities, thinking whether i should have a second opinion on something.
A while ago I went to the Doctors after a psychology student friend said its a possibility that i have Aspergers as i seem to have trouble socialising. For instance, meeting new people - I'm fine with, i like going to socials and that sort of stuff. I'm not outgoing but prepared to take risks and once i get used to people or my surroundings i'm ok. But on the other side of it i'm no good at sustaining a conversation unless theres something i can personally associate with. making friends that i want to keep hold of, although i want to, i totally fail and rely on other people to see the good in me and attempt to do something.
One of my main things that frustrate me is when i am talking to a friend and then their friend comes along. I go quiet. I dont know why. And its like ive started all over again, the doctor doesnt see this as a problem but to be honest it is an issue to me, because it makes no sense. Some friends say its part of being human but it really doesn't feel like that.
I went to the Doctors and she did a quick test. By this time i was already on medicine which may have effected the results of the test as (From what i'm aware) this medicine is prone to easing it off a little. The results of the test came back that i was 3 points off from being over this line of "normality" which was roughly 1 question, so she said that i have traits of Aspergers but i don't fall under it. Although im starting to think she may be wrong. It gets me down a little that i cant seem to click with people quicky.
Hmmm
When you Want To Talk Pt2: You're so blogged, I bet you think this blog is about you
Random things going on in my head since yesterday.
Hey... Why do you never talk to me! Thought we were close!
This is daft!
Essay... yay :(
I could just get pissed tonight.
Trying to figure out whats up with me!
I wish i never told you. Things were ok before but now i feel ignored and awkward. I was just being honest. :'(
i'll never tell another girl i like them ever again!
Ooh... who's this girl?
Good... this editing isnt working.
Maybe i should make a song for you.
I have icecream and i have mint chocolate syrum. The question is... should i get up right now?
If you just spoke to me you'd see why i'm like this.

Adventurous Day
Today has been pretty eventful. Jeeebers... I went to Birmingham for a Job interview. I think it went well. I had a bit of a debate on whether i should have worn a suit or shirt and tie. I went looking casual which seemed to be a good choice. Or i'd have gone to the place feeling daft because the people interviewing me were not in suits and were casual too. I had a gut feeling about it this morning and it turned out to be a good choice. I spent a bit too much on the taxi though so that was a bit rubbish. Next time i just need to make sure i get the train that doesnt go into the city centre.
The job sounds good and pretty streight forward so thats good. Its doing travel news so i guess its a good step up the ladder. When i left i decided to walk to the station (Which would have been an hour) and ended up having a long phone call with Greg and talking about radio. I'm doing him some more jingles in a few days. I got a taxi (after calling 118118 twice and them failing to help, useless fuckers... i used my brains and asked for a taxi number... some of the things i achieve but outside my head it = no points) and got the rest of the way to the train station.
I got back to Cheltenham and did In The Dark and got back home, had some food and after a small tidy up i decided to do some work. im tired though so i'm gona do it with a fresh head tomorrow.
So on that note. its time to go to bed :)
Night!

5 years time
Morning! (This indicated that i have just awoken).
So Yesterday it was Ruby's birthday. Yay! she turned 5 years old. I wasn't able to make it for her birthday because her mum was taking her somewhere special so i arranged work on that day.
I was laying in bed and i started thinking about the day Ruby was born.
He'res the retrospective events:
So its Friday the 9th of November 2007. After the regular bombardment of telephone calls of frustrated friends asking "Has the baby arived yet?" i decide to go shopping for some shelves as it looks like we're going to be staying at my dad's a few more months and we had no space. Caroline decides to stay at home and I go to Wickses.
In the superstore i get a telephone call saying i should get home as we need to go to the hospital. Caroline stays the night (I'm not allowed) so i go home and build the shelves.
The next day i went in to see Caroline and she was in the delivery room. It was time for some baby action, so the midwife got things going. Caroline had LOTS of that breathy stuff and became fixated on James Bond which was on the Television. The midwife suggested switching it off.
It started getting into the evening, and was dark outside. It feels like it went quickly but it really went for hours. And at 10:10, on Saturday 10-11-07 an 7lb 7 oz lovely baby was born. I held Ruby in my arms for soo long it hurt but it was amazing. I'll never forget the way she looked at me and how i couldnt take my eyes off her, and trying to show Caroline while she was getting attention of her own from the midwife. Luckily i think she was too drugged up enough to know how long that took because it meant i had more time with Ruby, and i was worried about Caroline, but there wasnt much i could do... I cant sew very well.
The numbers of Rubys birth are very odd 10 10 10 11 7 7.
Ironically, the next day i totally forgot remembererence day. I got to the hospital about 10-ish.
on the 11th of november at 11am when the outside world stopped, I was sitting with my new born baby thinking about all the fun times we will have and how much i love her. The outside world didn't matter, only me, my daughter and Caroline.
In 5 years time, Things had changed slightly but what hasn't changed, is that the world still doesn't matter, because Ruby still does and always will. I'm so happy she's 5 now. Yesterday i worked most of the day, and then went to work on my 80's remix project. Not really as eventful as 5 years ago. I think i was watching Jonathan Ross at !0:10 last night.
Anyway He'res a video of Ruby from now :-)... How much she's grown up!

Hello world. Soo...
was the name of the panda in sooty.
In other news I was admiring the outside today. I managed to get through the Lecture today without things going grim. I think i was pretty boring though.
A live set i arranged today half happened, but it makes sense why. We had band Swim Deep in the studio and it went all cool, they were tired though and on their last 2 gigs. It was interesting to have a band in though.
I want some icecream, luckily i have some. Tomorrow i get to have a bit of a sleep in which i suppose is ok. I was only awake for like 10 hours yesterday and could really do with some sleep. I'm just complaining now lol.
Anyway not really much else to report on. Night folks

Nice Day
I had a pretty cool day today. It wasnt amazing but i guess it was one of those days that made me think stuffs not so bad.
I was talking about my past last night and its been on my mind lately, plus the other day (From my last post as you can see) i wasn't in a very happy mood and things were getting to me more than they should have, and over the next few weeks i'll have to revisit things i dont really like recalling. The first - my listening history in front of class. Radio and music was an escape for me so im hoping that my recolection wont cause me to stumble over things i don't want to mention - because i know that i will talk about it even though i'm really wishing they never asked. I have nothing to hide. Surly i shouldnt look at tomorrow as a day which holds potential fear, and should see it as a day with potential to be a good one.
I think i just like being around people. Certain people more than others. Just people who can understand me and show that someone is bothered and i feel like im not some sort of tag along. I just assume that if im not invited then i would be tagging along or intruding. I kind of feel like that sometimes, but also sometimes i want to break away from groups and try something new.
A lot of times even though people mean well, for one reason or another dont seem to be clicking as quickly as i had hoped. Plus with the crush going on, I'd just like to get to know her as a friend more than anything even if things never happened than that because she's funny and a really good person and someone i'd like to associate with more and keep in touch with after Uni. Theres other stuff i'd say and atleast i know where i stand. Again - something i think would be hard to say to her as im not good with compliments and i dont wanna look creepy after all thats gone on.
But back to today... I had fun chats about my voice. I dont like my pitch sometimes and the advice was to slouch. Very weird considering that i was always told to sit up straight and not to slouch. I watched Barak Obama win his second term this morning and managed to go to bed about 5ish. I slept till midday (although i had a call at 9 and i think the woman on the phone not only realised she had woke me and not said, i just agreed with everything and wrote my appointment with her down. She seemed a bit "uhh... yeah" after so i hope i didnt say something odd) and had a message from someone at uni which for some reason made me giggle. It wasn't even supposed to be funny, but i took it as a compliment. Went to uni and listened to some stuff my classmates did and it was pretty cool. I was proud of myself that not only was my version of links picked, but was pleased with how i sounded, especially because i felt i sounded natural with a script that wasnt mine, and the dyslexia didnt get too much in the way.
Had fun doing the show and because i was productive in the time i couldnt sleep last night i came to uni with some new (But weird) things for the show which made a few people giggle. To be totally honest if i can make others smile that makes me feel a bit happier. I need more days like this. Days where i can sleep half of it and get all the good in a big splodge. Im finding that i am tired alot and that can effect what mood im in.
Anyway bit long but it gets it off my chest. Its not everything... i hae to save some stuff for real people, i just havnt had the chance to do it yet.
Good Nighty!

I want my rock!
Could do with my rock to talk to right now, set my head straight and have a bit of a smile, but i think shes doing things. My life always seems to be full of un-level situations. Either something i want but cant have it or something that i dont want and cant shake it off. I just want stuff to tally up. Sometimes when i try to explain to people its like "well its part of being human" but I've been through shit loads and i never ever complain. I just want someone to get it. If its not other people then its gotta be me rite?
I always end up doing something silly or doing the worst thing in a situation. I have to see a person about stuff at uni on Monday. Wrecking my radio drama lesson grr.

Technical times
Todays been a bit of a bore outsider terms. I had the chance to be geeky to create something cool. Lots of work but means others can have fun with it and also maybe make listeners stay a bit longer.
I got Tone Radio's play out computer to do the new station sound. Mainly the jingles and sorted the music into certain catagories, aswell as adding more tracks to the library. The thing is, as soon as i got home and settled the computer crashed so i hope somethings not gone terribly wrong after all that work.
Did that till midnight, and i did a radio show earlier in the day from 2-4. I really should put them up soon so i dont get a backlog. I did the classic chart which seems to be going ok. I did 1984 today which yeah, it was a bit old, but i think i pulled it off. Did a cheezy countdown to the Wizard by paul hardcastle which was mega cheezy. My Auntie messaged in. Shes not seen or heard me since i was a kid so must have been weird for her. Ruby heard me on the radio for the first time too.
Not much to say about today really other than night pop pickers.

One of my moods
I'm in one of my moods tonight. Luckily its not too bad but yeah i'm not too chirly right now.
I'm not into the same stuff my house mates are, and i'm skint anyway. Im having an old fashioned comedy night on TV... which is what i did as a teen. Weird seeing Andy Parsons on a different panel show. Which chuckle brother will die first?
But yeah i'm moping around on the sofa really. I'm worried i'm making my crush too obvious and felt bad about that too today. I'm so concious about it, which is probably why i shall end up totally lonely forever, This will no longer be mentioned.
What ever happened to those Munch Bunch yogurts that you could tip into a bowl and it stayed stuck in the shape of the pot? i used to love them. They were in bigger pots. I have no idea what the hell that stuff was thinking about it. I think its fromage frais now and comes in pots you can eat with your fingers. It was like some sort of fruit milk jelly.
Check me out being so alone.
So anyway i was working lots at Tone today sorting some music out. thinking of starting a little team to critique the music thats sent in and whether we should play it.
The house smells like smelly sticks. It reminds me of one of my sexy ex girlfriends because her room smelt like them. She had nice smells in her room, i never got to touch her boobs unfortunatly because she said if i did she would hit me... although they were pretty ace, i just never got to have a go on them. When the sticks are burning though it reminds me of something else. Might be why im feeling strange cause i had one burning. Maybe i need a different flavour. I used to hate them when i was a kid
I should probably go to bed. Im getting up tomorrow at a reasonable time. I suppose that not actually want to get up after a 9 hour sleep is a sign i need more sleep.
Goodnight :-)

Seven minutes past midnight
So i'm just about to get ready for bed and i've read the blogs and things i usually read before bed. I have a bit of a routine. Hi by the way, i've not been on for a bit. Things got a little busy, and now they are quiet. probably down to the lack of money :D.
Other aspects of life... well the women thing, did i not say at some point that im not going to bother talking about girls because i constantly fail? Well the matter has been on my mind lately again because of a few things. Someone had been paying me lots of attention and coming round lots but i dont like her in that way. Plus i need to move on in life, meet new people who make me giggle and i can have fun with. Theres kinda someone i like as well but its my fear coming back again. the chance usually is dare i say something it will make things tremendously awkward and end up in a total fail. I think i need proof that they like me the same way before i take the step into the darkness. I believe in a thing called love. Ohhhh.
Hey guess what i have? No its not a STD (As above, shit with getting girls) or a fabulous life... oh no, its better. I can bury my head down into my laptop when i want to be anti social and go on my... PRO TOOLS! Yay! I'm still getting used to it. If you dont know what pro tools is, its not a box of tools that live in a rack in a garage, its an audio editing software. I have been using Adobe Audition/Cool edit since 2003 and i decided that i needed something more up to date. I finally received the last bit i needed to get it working on my computer and since then i have been geeked out in how to use it. I just need to remember what Lansley said about how to do effects. Audition is so much easier to use though and has some pretty helpful short cuts that pro tools doesn't have. But yeah i just need to use it more. The Cool Edit King is hanging up his crown.
So i was reading some blogs as i have established above, and the subject of halloween costumes came up and it got me thinking. Im pretty sure i mentioned this somewhere but why do girls get dressed up as fairies at Halloween? Even kids. FAIRIES ARE NOT SCARY!
When i worked at Coliseum literally half the customers came in being fairies. I can understand witches, that makes sense, and so does ghosts. So forr anyone contemplating fairies this year... here are a few suggestions:
Ghost Cat
Severed Hand
Girl who died in a well
Eaten person
Prison Zombie
Jeff Goldblum in the fly
Jeff Goldblum in jurassic parks
Jeff Goldblum
T Rex
Zombie T Rex
Zombie fly t rex Jeff Goldblum thing
Mark Bolan from T Rex
The goat from Jurassic parks.
I could continue but i shall stop now. I want to go to the night out but i fear i may not be able to. I'm gona pop to the bank in the morn and see if its a doable thing. Anyway till i update again. Taataa!

im in the bed
so im in bed now for an early bed time. the chances r i will be laid here awake for a bit. but its better than watching tv. the last few days iv actually felt quite good. i think sleep and rest might be the answer to a lot of things at the moment. stay off drink, just be positive really. it might be a bit selfish too... but i normally get concerned with other people and hope they are ok and try and help them thru things but i need to let them get on with it and not care. my door is closed and my ears are shut. its me time now!
My landlord came round today. it was the second time i've really seen him like he was... in a cocky aggressive "im boss" way and it was rather entertaining. when u have an uncle like bob back in the day... well it helps. he was very bob like and i think its mostly for show because id spoke and emailed him twice before his visit and he was like i not spoke to him for like forever. im a little late on the rent... what does he expect? student finance dont come thru till later in the month. i figured ages ago the best way to be is that everything is an exaduration and dont take his comments personal, although he really shud be careful just incase his tennents have problems like depression or anxity because that cud hav bad conciquences lol.
Anyway he asked me to explain the fridge to him. Sometimes when i get put on the spot my chest goes tight and i find it hard to breathe out... its a panic response even tho i hav nothing to worry about. i used to get it in class alot but i learnt to calm down or get used to the situation. so him coming without prior warning, storming and nit picking. still it was funny. not sure if i like him yet.
right. i need to sleep. so latersss!

The Shower Room
So i just had a shower... this happens regularly. Its not a special thing. Anyway this room has got to be the worst room i've had to experience in history. Actually no thinking about it the spider filled shed in purton was spooky. It even had snakes. This shower room in not filled with snakes or spiders or any other creepys. Its just got a shower. Nothing else, and its a small room too.
It makes me think how it could be restructured. Last month it was part of the main bathroom which is right next to it. This houses a sink, toilet and another shower. So they decided to put another door in. The enterence to these rooms are via the living room. Yeah... practical right?
So leave the doors open you see everything. The living room/communal area only has 2 tv ports and the doors are in weird places so really the only place to put the TV is where they put the new door so you have to walk behind the TV to get to the toilet and make sure you close the door all the time or the whole place smells. This "new" shower room though... You can shower in it obviously but its pretty small to get dressed in and everything gets wet when you come out the shower cause theres nowhere to put your clothes. For practicality the only other use for this room other to have a shower would be if we needed some sort of fall out shelter from the protect and survive stuff during the cold war.
Todays plans then. Do work i should have, find work that pays and be positive. Whoo!
Anyway i better get some breakfast/lunch
It makes me think how it could be restructured. Last month it was part of the main bathroom which is right next to it. This houses a sink, toilet and another shower. So they decided to put another door in. The enterence to these rooms are via the living room. Yeah... practical right?
So leave the doors open you see everything. The living room/communal area only has 2 tv ports and the doors are in weird places so really the only place to put the TV is where they put the new door so you have to walk behind the TV to get to the toilet and make sure you close the door all the time or the whole place smells. This "new" shower room though... You can shower in it obviously but its pretty small to get dressed in and everything gets wet when you come out the shower cause theres nowhere to put your clothes. For practicality the only other use for this room other to have a shower would be if we needed some sort of fall out shelter from the protect and survive stuff during the cold war.

Month of silence
Hey there, thought I would drop by and say hi while i was here checking my stats of whose had a look at the blog and stuff.
I've had an eventful few weeks kind of. same old stuff in a way but i had Ruby for a week. She seems to have learnt the word "Invalid" which means "no hands". Im very tired... as it seems is usual. Not been feelin to chirpy but hey it happens.
Uni is starting again in a few weeks. im hoping to have sorted these sleep things out by then because i really need to get next year sorted. Going back as a second year is going to feel mega weird.
On the female front... no change really. Was talking to one girl but she is in some sort of open relationship with her ex or something and another one i was speaking to has fallen for someone else so thats me out. These people randomly got in touch on a dating website i was on ages ago, so it was just chance they messaged. I'm still getting unwanted attention and the person i want to talk to and spend time with... well i dont think i should go there. All i will say though is that i miss them fucking loads. Sam and Rich hav been givin me advice too and the weekend just gone I've had ex (and friend) Sammie come round over the weekend
Which leads me onto what the hell frankie and bennies do with their pizzas! They put it on a podium... Why??? Yes i admire that you put plenty of rockit on the pizza but you didnt have to put it on a podium so it pokes you in the eye and that every word i spoke was spoken all over a pizza. they even brought a camp man specially to put it on the table and offer us stuff.

Dreamworld awaits
Hey, so it's Saturday morning at 0:33 and i've just finished the bulk part of actually getting some work through radioshock media (My little independent venture)
Id been working 2 days on it, only to break for food and sleep. I think i killed my neck last night but i fixed that now. So yeah.
I've not been on recently just because theres not been much to say. Had a fun time in Yorkshire last weekend and an extra long time with Ruby. Got her down here next time. It would have been longer last time but i had to be in for a delivery.
Got a new laptop. Its lighter than the last one which is cool, it's quicker and doses't seem to get very hot. It doesn't look as good as the last one but what would i expect? This is just a plain black toshiba thing and the compaq was a black silver shiney thing. The other one was more comfortable, Still this works better and has a number pad on it so im not complaining :-)
I also got a white board to help me with stuff... which is how i managed to actually do some work. Going to do some more website stuff over the weekend hopefully, something less straining.
I'm also talking to someone i think is very cool. Who knows where that will go, we've been talking a lot lately about things on our minds and having a laugh too so that's pretty cool. I'm still missing a certain someone though, but at least this is helping. I suppose I should take advantage of it to get my feelings all sorted. I'm going through this transition period in life at the moment.
My dreams have been really crazy lately. Spanning from oversized walking owls, schools flooding, brother being ill, criminals making christmas cards at uni. My dad pimping his Jaguar up, water leaks, digging a tunnel and finding a secret room. Many of them seem to be school based or something to do with learning establishments or old houses. Mainly West Swindon and drawn to the front room or the TV. One dream was that we lived a few doors down from it. It's not even how it looked inside, all the rooms are different places but its like the room at the top of the stairs is mine and has something written on the wall in blue on the right. Blue is also a running theme. the door we dug up (Numer 4 on it) was blue.
Another one was that i was waiting to be a contestent on a trampoline game show. The fire alarm went off and i went to get my shoes but they were missing so i just grabbed the shoes that were left. I went home and Ruby was by herself so i stayed there, i realised i left my phone at the studio so had to stay and my dad said he forgot Ruby was there. Then this other one where the headmaster of a school was giving his job to someone without telling them.
The setting in my dreams are weird, like i've constructed this whole building. It's like an 80s or 90s style school. Like with blue panelled bottom half and white around the windows. Theres also a gold field with a changing room. The main part where most things happen is where the building is an up-side down L shape with a bit of grass in the middle and the p.e place in the top left corner and all the doors are dark brown with glass in them. The interior is tidy though.
My sleeping has gotten to be a strange adventure lately. I kicked someone when i was at 2000 trees festival, i woke up kicking the wall yesterday, the other night i woke Ruby up because i was snoring very loud and it was scary. I've clearly been having converdations with myself while asleep and woken up moaning. Saying that i could do with way more sleep. I feel like im boring facebook with all the sleep references i make.
Anyway i should really go to sleep. I'll try and update this again by monday.
Night! (yaaawn)

Happy Post - All good news
Yay! Whoo! This is an indication of a happy post that doesnt have down elements in it.
My Freeview is back on. I nicked a box from my dads so i could watch TV again. The old box busted. I cant rewind it but atleast for bbc i have the Iplayer still on my Wii, so even if i miss homes under the hammer from the start then i can see it on that. Saying that all I've done is watch BBC1 and BBC2... Night Garden... Fuck yeah!
I have my new computer coming soon too along with all the other stuff. Got Ruby this weekend and looking forward to seeing her. Shes down here in a few weeks too which is ace.
I've got an internship at Tone Radio starting in September and i'll be Head of Music which is not only something i like but to be doing this at a student radio station is a good potential step up into commercial radio or BBC and focus my career on something that can get me further into the part of radio i want to get into. I was originally offered the imaging... which is cool and would have been just as good but yeah, i think music sounds a lot of fun and it's something just as important.
I'm sleeping Loooads at the moment. The last night i had 12 hours... I'm still sleepy. I had 2 hours last night and 14 the night before. I'm a sleepy head. I need to stretch longer and harder to shake out the boggles and groggs in my bones :-)
I need to maximise my work, i have 2 jobs but im not actually working - My own production work which i need to find clients and things, and also i need to get on with doing more ambassador work. I think they like me but i've not done much. I'm not as confident as i thought i would be after my first tour... i need to plan that out. But yeah i really should plan out my work and take baby steps to get the audio production thing going.
And the in the dark web page is up, i just need to work on the itunes stuff and getting the stuff on the site.
I have lollies, and the sunshine is out... Lets go fucking mental! :P

Blog Break
Hey :) I had a bit of a break from the blog, as you may be aware. It's mainly because i havnt had much happening and i've been spending time moving and seeing things, spending time on other projects. So what's been happening?
Well right now its nearly 10:30 at night and watching horrible histories. I'm always learning. I may have lost the last podcast recording as this time i recorded it the way that makes no back up so i'm hoping to do something about that in the morning.
In good news i watched The Dark Knight Rises at the cinema. It was weird watching it after hearing about the america stuff and those poor people who went for a good time and ended up dieing. On the news they had a guy who took his kids into watch it... while in the UK its a 12A... why on earth would you let a child under 10 watch it! I found it to be a mind fuck and a kid would find it scary. As for the Cheltenham showing, maybe they should have cut the trailer for the gangster film where they burst through a cinema screen with machine guns. At this point i stated "That's Ironic" is a deathly sarcastic manor rather loudly. That good news changed to bad didn't it? I'll try and keep it chirpy. Just watch the film. You wont regret it.
I was at 2000 Trees festival last weekend which was fucking amazing. I managed to interview about between 8-12 bands (I didnt count properly). It was the muddyest vicinity i have ever stepped in. I've never seen so much mud. I cant get some of the mud stains from some of my clothes. If i could remove them though i would put them all over your face.
I had a Killing Dream last night. I had a weird situation before hand which may have been the reasons. Jess (Remember her?) and i had a chat last night and fell asleep thinking about her. The The dream involved us being contract killers and we were hunting people down. She took the order and we were outside this place (Which looked like my old school, Oakfields, which is long dead and gone) shooting Nazis and the Gestapo... it was still illegal though in the UK to shoot people... they were watching us. When i realised it i decided to abandon the second part of the shooting. I told Jess i thought it was a shit job, so we drove our Red Renalt to the nearest icecream place. I then awoke.

£5 note gone afloat
I'm just going through my stuff in the current flat ready for action stations for the Cave Master to hit the red button. I am hoping its tomorrow or friday before 4pm because if not i'm fucked.
I was packing up and tidying the walls in my current room. Scraping the scum off the wall and peeling the layer of mucky film from the floor. I found the song Jason wrote on the board in the hallway (He used to come round and get naked, get pissed and sing lots). While sorting my room out I noticed the £5 that was missing off my table... i had no idea where it was.
It seems as just as i sat down to take a break it floated back infront of my feet. That was weird.
I've finished my pepsi aswell for today. I shouldn't be drinking it, it seems as i'm on the Junkalitous pills it doesnt agree with me. Too much info?
I've been again trying to explain that i dont want a girlfriend... I know sometimes i want someone to talk to and a girl verson of a person would be nice, but its not an important thing to me as this other person is trying to forward. I just dunno what else to say about it really.
Right... back to work

I don't have to post this!
Ok it's now the 4th of July (happy day america) and earlier (3rd) i was walking into uni and i realised that it was the third... and that i didn't have to update this blog daily any more since 3 days ago. I started the daily updates on the first of June, which feels like not long ago. Things that stick out for me is the Comedy gigs, finally seeing Ray Peacock and Ed Gamble (even though they weren't together) and finally fixing things so i can see Ruby more. I'm sure there's other things but that's what comes to mind at the moment
I think i'll just keep it up for as long as i can. I've posted more times this year than i have any other year. The last week or so has been pretty slim for finding things to blog about. I mean theres stuff i cant talk about which i'd like to, but there is a line i dont want to cross. I've been rather revealing to you guys. Sometimes its something to say, or that i've got nobody to say it to so i put it on there.
To be honest i know i have one person who knows everything about me, my ins and outs because they read all my blog and once told me to say anything to them... which i think i over did which i now i regret because i think i ruined stuff. And another person who i used to tell everything to and miss loads, but they have lots of good things going on in their life. In short... everyones got good stuff going on and I don't wana be a pain to anybody else. Theres a difference between people there and being a friend leech. I think some of my friends are too nice to be blunt with me too so i'm sorry for anyone reading this who i've been a pain to :)
Anyway (Yes regular readers this is the 'anyway' section that im pretty sure i wrote every blog) Today was ok i guess. Had some good news which im hoping to reveal over the next few days. I've still not moved house and i have to go to yorkshire at the weekend so i'm hoping tomorrow i can pick up the keys to the new place and that i can get hold of my brother to find out whats happening this weekend.
Thats all for now

My eyes don't bend that way!
I just got told off from a guy in a mobility scooter for "Not walking in a straight line".
This was partially down to that i got a text and read it. I then was dodging other people and I didn't see any signs that said "Dont swerve". The guy certainly wasn't behind me for long anyway, probably about 20 seconds.
Walking in a straight line is impossible anyway, am i supposed to measure this? I wasn't on a road, it was in a busy town centre with people everywhere. He was wheeling up from behind me, stopped next to me (really close) and told me off. I said "alright, calm down, sorry ok?" then he stormed off.
Anyway this guy was wrong for telling me off. Granted, i wasnt particularly paying attention to what was behind me... but my eyes don't bend that way. I don't have extra eyes under this hair. I know he didn't ask to be a mobility scooter user (Well he kinda did because you have to apply and stuff) but i dont think he was using it safely. I looked up some driving tips which says:
"Always drive slowly and cautiously on public payments and give priority to pedestrians. Always treat pedestrians with respect."

and
"Try to avoid peak times when pavements are very busy."
He must have been driving at faster than walking speed to have nearly hit me twice with his scooter and then pull up next to me. If he was a pedestrian he'd have well gone around me, but it wasn't a road, its not motorway rules. And it was a busy time, Monday lunchtime, so he should have been more careful. I cant help not walking in a straight line.

You bloody chocolate ice cream
So i wanted to have a chilled night in by having some ice cream and watch a film.
I started watching series 2 of Episodes (I've not seen the first series yet) but its more that i wanted something else to watch and got into it so i might put batman on later. The chocolate ice cream idea was a bad one though. I find chocolate the hardest one to consume. Thats why i never have chocolate milkshake and always eat the pink and yellow and leave the brown cause its too sickly.
Ok that was way weird... Just a little bit then then all my feelings came back... to be put out like a fire by an extinguisher.
Anyway this post means theres not much happened today... which if you thought this... you were right.
A ghost found some treasure today. It belonged to the pirate "John 'Axe-arms' Archibold" who had axes for arms. This was because they were cut off by fellow pirates, and his axes were attached by bamboo. His beard was weaved together in a basket, just incase he lost the keys to his ship, and also catch the crumbs of his pastiy. He used the keys with his mouth (Which made the beard handy) and also he softly axed his pasty so it could be in his 'hand' to eat it.
Anyway the ghost was in the news. It didnt happen but it was something to say

I could start a revolution from here
I'm on my bed (as normal) watching things on 4OD as i'm having sleeping problems again. I've gotten so used to sitting on the bed most of the time instead of proper chairs, that when i sit on a proper chair i put my feet up. Thats not good is it? It hightens the risk of being told off! You know when the grumpy face of authority appears to tell you to put your feet down.
I think i may spend too much time on my bed... or i need to carry an inflatable poof to rest my legs upon.
Jelmer came over earlier and we had a skype call with Robin to try something out online. Its pretty much a go nowhere story, but the other stuff i did was putting everything in boxes... "Little boxes on the hillside, little boxes made of ticky tacky" for when i move. I managed to get the papers in that box sorted through and put all the assignments from uni and collage into another pile and put it in the pile of folders, and put the other useless papers in the bin.

How to shift a 32" CRT TV
Its a fresh day and according to the window the weather seems fair which is quite good.
I need to think about packing my stuff away to move into the new place this weekend. most of it should be fairly easy because its just things i can put in my bag... other than my TV and the big box of papers i seem to be hoarding. Maybe i should go through those and keep the important ones. Theres letters and assignments, notes and all sorts of college and uni stuff in there. As far as the TV... this may need a rethink because i'm not carrying and old fashioned huge 32 inch TV from one half of cheltenham to the other. I may have to see if i can find a stray trolly and do it student style. Same with the microwave, its a but heavy.
The last time i moved stuff with trollys was quite fun. in 1997 when we moved into our house in walcot we found about 4 trollys from sainsburys and tescos. We parked them all down our alleyway on the side of the house. We then started playing trains with them and found more. My dad told us off for finding so many so we had to dump them all back around Walcot.
Back to now... and yeah so i'm hoping to get things sorted by "Action day Monday" and then depending on what's happening with Yorkshire move in ASAP.
I'm putting a new radio demo together as well and thinking about going for the Student Radio awards for best male with all my creative stuff and silly bits in there. In The Dark is already going for it but there's things my show does that the other show doesn't so it might be worth a go.

Back to the future "hoax"
Just mainly for people who saw it and people who know me, i knew that picture was wrong... I've seen the film loads... so when i saw that i was like "no... he went forward to 2015 in like October.
Firestarter
No i've not gone into the business of pyromania... or being a prodigy tribute act. I'm watching the Steven King film firestarter. It was a film i discovered when life got extreemly bad. It was on BBC1 and it helped me escape. plus the music in it was very 80s. It's even got Drew Barrymore in it and it reminds me of Ruby for some strange reason. I was feeling in-different about things and the music in this makes me feel all fuzzy and warm inside, i wanted to make sure it still happened.
I just watched Tinker Taylor Soldier Spy, it was ok i guess. It seems like one of those films id have seen in the cinema and never see again, but i have it on DVD so i'm sure i'll watch it again with someone.
Today was another chilled relaxed day. I went into uni to help Jelmer put the student radio demo together. Things are getting sorted with the new place which is cool. im off out to get that done tomorrow so Monday isn't action day again.
Time to go and watch this film :-)

Cheap Cake
I am a man. I like cheap cake. Rubarb pie is nice and apple slices are too.
So in the short term my people of this blog thing, you must ask yourself this question, a question that has plagued me for years.
How much does a ferry full of 3 legged grey hound dogs (With one floating dog for each car) in Robin Reliants weigh?
That's todays post
Ever get the feeling you've been cheated?
Love you

Dawg Gone
I was at uni yesterday doing some more messing about in the studio, practicing things and just making lots of noise. On the way out the gates we were approached by a happy looking dog. It seemed to greet everyone so we said hello and walked on... but the dog followed us. I was with Jelmer and didnt know what to do about this dog, so we cooked it.
We did'nt really cook it, we called the police who were totally not helpful. So we took it to the security guard at park. We had to call him though because he was at another campus. Anyway we waited for him to come and sort things out while we sat with the dog. You'd have thought that dogs would have been found on a regular basis and the police would have done more to help us out with the finding of the owners, but it must have taken about 10 phone calls to a number of people who had a variety of different numbers and secret numbers for people with other numbers. He phoned them and they came with a barbecue and we cooked it.
That bit didnt happen either, but what actually happened was while waiting i spoke with the dog. Previously i suggested we ride it to town, and i asked what the dogs name was. He tripped while going over a ramp so i called him Trippy. We didnt know his real name but followed with enthusiasum if you said "Come on" in a high pitched voice he would go where you said. He seemed to be missing his owner i think because he told me. Well.. when i say that he didnt speak with his mouth. he wanted a hug and the hug shop was open. We waited till the security man managed to get hold of a warden. After nearly 3 hours wait and being bitten by midgies we gave the dog to the warden. It didnt have a collar but it was chipped, that was the good deed done for the day so we left. To my knowledge the dog was not eaten and was sent back to its owner.
Today didnt really consist of many actions. I stayed in the dark because i was having a dark day. Although i went out near the end of it. Just went to uni, messed about with music again and left. The Junkalitous tablets are going ok i think. So far ive not forgotten to take them.

Morning Toastie, and 2009 posts update
I'm sat on my bed having a toastie.
I'm taking these Junkalitous tablets, and they are making me more wizzy aroundy than regular everyday. I woke at 6am and been up since. I did some editing and got bored, and then a little sleepy again so i went to sleep but couldn't. but i was hungry so that led up to this toastie event happening now. I've had have of it and to be honest i'm not really feeling it.
Ok i finished it now, and want some more at the same time as not. Jeepers if I'm unbearable regular everyday when people ask me what I'm on, god help the world when i actually am on something!
I actually think that i shouldnt do anything today considering that i was all a bit moody on Saturday and Sunday and should just watch telly. I should just not think. Watch some Jeremy kyle, but not get too into it to the point it mushes my brains off. I should get this demo for the SRA done though... It's high on my list.
I had some tablity things before to help my throat get better before. I didn't blog about it because it happened in 2009 and not much really was mentioned that year. Probably cause it was shit... I wont dwell, but i suppose I'll update you with this long delayed posty bit... Below are some FB status updates from then
I also put "Hates Jazz" because i thought it would be funny for Johnny to hate Jazz and "Ahh! Weird boy in the studio"... a weird boy came in the studio that day and i had to ask him to leave. His mum told him to come in apperently. It was like a stray cat, but it was a boy. A stray boy.
Anyway this update was brought to you by the sun, shining down brightly most of the day!
