Fuck me, what an unholy time of the morning.
I'm already showered and in work. Usually I'm just starting to wake up at this time. Fucking hell, I can't even see straight.
Right... if you had to choose between giving up booze or cigs, what would it be?

Yeah, need to give them up anyway.
I saw the bottom of the flower pot I use for tab ends in the garden last night.

I've got a special bin for tab ends that some cunt empties his lungs up into most days, if anything it smells worse than shit.
He's currently got TB, has turned an interesting hue of yellow and still has twenty a day. Be warned kids.

Coughing up lung batter is never pleasant.
That's what has prompted me into thinking about quitting, I guess.

I do like the idea that hardened smokers only think that giving up might be an idea
once they have already entered the terminal phase and are coughing up lumps of flesh.

If I heared it right on the radio this morning they recovered 6 truck loads of booze from the unit which hadn't exploded.
And that at a similar establishment in North London the production was 20 bottles a minute.
That is way more than some distilleries in Scotland.

The chant 'ZULU - GESTAPO' can be heard in 'Flash to the Beat' by Grandmaster Flash,
and is sampled by Afrika Bambaataa's 1992 tune 'Zulu War Chant'. Both records are brilliant.
