In other news..... I've just noticed that iv'e only got 5 1/2 months left at uni until i finish my 2nd year, doing my 3rd year is 50/50 atm! (tbh, i'm sick as out now and just want to finish).

Hangover free...I can only dream about that...When I was a nipper I could drink all day and night, get in about 6am, goto bed for a couple of hours and wake up fresh as a daisy, I get wkd hangovers now...I was a borderline Alcoholic in '02-'03 drinking 4 slabs of LCL a week

lol...As pointed out above, I lost 6 months of my life as I was pissed for thay amount of time...

I started getting evil hangovers from the day I toned my drinking down

Citaro heating. Always spot on without fail, which led to an enjoyable (and my first!) journey on the X7.

Nice easy day today - utterly dead this morning though, which meant sitting around everywhere! First day of the year and I had an X5, 5, break, another 5 2 Streetlites though

When "Kiss Kiss" by Holly Valance came on in Asda earlier on, Seriously considered dropping my Basket in the middle of the Aisle and start Dancing, Used to love that song when I was a bit younger.

Just been flicking through the music channels on Sky and the video for this song has just come up.

Better than what I heard the last time I was in Asda "hi I'm Bob Geldof give us all your ****ing money, now here is our song for charity, GIVE US YOUR MONEY! merry Christmas"

Asda Washington usually has some decent Music on whenever I am in getting a few bits and bobs.

I hate him too, he is an arse.

Most Asda's usually play alright music, but last time Bob Geldof kept telling us to give to charity every 10 bleeding seconds which wound me up.

One Asda somewhere got in trouble for playing a Rage Against the Machine song.

I dont like Rage Against The Machine, but I would rather listen to it than that Irish Skidmarks annoying voice saying 'give us your fucking money

I'm not big on Rage either but I too would rather have shouty rock than bloody Geldof.

The problem I have with Geldof is if you dont agree with him, he will pretty much call you a cunt...

The way he went on about Adele when she didnt appear for Band Aid was stupid, he said he was not attacking her, but his tone of voice in an interview suggested something very different

Went to see The Theory of Everything today with some friends.

Brilliant movie about Stephen Hawking, and I saw a few ads in the trailers before the movie, one that particular caught my eye was the one about Martin Luther King. Might go see that.

I think I may have found what is quite possibly the funniest headline I ever seen, in an article about New Zealand Badminton...

As most will know, they name there national teams black/white/ferns...

The Badminton people wanted to call themselves The Black Cocks, after shuttlecocks, and did a little looking about and found this

The headline on the website was

NZ finds Black Cocks hard to swallow, Chinese not keen either

Wow, some amusing lines in the article too.

That's as may be, but the International Badminton Federation (IBF) has decided not to take the Black Cocks lying down.

Ah yes, the sticky "we'd rather not entertain Black Cocks in the People's Republic of China" problem.

When I first seen it, I had to check the date, to see it wasnt dated April 1...it was dated September 2005

Very happy!

Quite humoured by the fact the kids on 6008 (serv 35A) think it's much better than 'the usual bus'. Can only assume they usually get a Scania!

Might be because it's a double decker?

Aye, they've been banging on about it being a double decker for a good 20 mins now...

Haha - I'd much rather have a Citaro than that vile bus.

They've changed their minds now...

They don't like how the branches of trees keep smacking into the front window, how when you go downhill/round a roundabout it looks like you're going to die, and how the seats are uncomfortable.

Wonder what their reaction would be if 6099/6100 appeared, I'll be honest I got excited when I had one of them on the 20A a few months back.

As much as I like double deckers I'd sooner have a Citario or even a Solar over 6008.

Let's not discuss how I selected 6008 on the 35A over 5335 on the 20A!

Bet there is nothing exciting on the 20/20A when I go to Sunderland tomorrow, gutted my shot of a Fast Cats on the 20 yesterday came out blurry.

If a B9 appeared they would probably use the free wifi and power sockets instead of engaging in conversion with each other .
