Alright Batts?
I saw some green clouds tonight, it was well bizarre. I also got a nice present from the tax man when I got in.

Altalt: SHUT THE FUCK UP, RIGHT???

Altaltalt: I enjoy a dish my local curry house does which has four chillis on the menu. Unfortunately the effects the day after make my eyes water.

Hello mate.
Tax man isn't always the cunt you think they'll be, mind you, they tend to be cunts more often than not.

Bit sad, got to get rid of one of the cats, too stressed by Micro Battered & it's getting to a point where it could be considered cruel.

I am nibbling at a birdseye.

Yeah, I saw that earlier. Sad tiemez.
I was expecting the tax present as I paid tax on my redundancy payment for the whole year, but only actually worked the first quarter. It's not as much as I thought it would be, because I forgot that Jobseeker's Allowance count towards your personal allowance, but it's almost enough to pay off the credit card bar a couple of hundred quid, so it's all peachy.

I am also applying for another job, despite only being in the current one for two weeks.

Does this fiscal change mean you'll be attending the Sept bash?

Unfortunately not.
I'm seeing the Levellers on the Sunday night of that weekend. I've also got a weekend in Edinburgh in October, and a trip to Manchester in November. Plus, with changing jobs my pay cycle is a bit out of synch.

Well there is only one way of life
EDIT: and that's your own. Clearly!

Seen the Lev's live several times. Excellent.

I've seen them about, ooh, twelve times or so now.
The September gig is an acoustic one at the Sage in Gateshead. I'm very much looking forward to it.

Acoustic. Excellent. Last saw them in December.
Really want to go to The Beautiful Days festival they run. Unlikely I will though.

I saw them do an acoustic set as 'Drunk in Public' at the Tan Hill Inn (highest pub in England) a couple of easters ago.
200 people packed into a tiny little room. One of the best gigs I've ever been to. Although I nearly used Mark Chadwick's hat as an ash tray...

I saw Billy Bragg live in a similar set up.
About 100 of us campaigned in Dagenham against the BNP at the last election. He pitched up at the end of one day and played an acoustic session that was unannounced. Superb.
