Bashers... have you regenerated your brains yet?

Non-bashers... did you ever believe b3tans could be so good-looking?

Well I'm back at work again.
The Fun Lovin' Criminals didn't show for their pickup yesterday... perhaps they took one look at my boss's clapped-out minibus and called another company. Shame, my mum would've loved their autographs.

I may have to try and make it to one of these bashes in the near future... you all look like my kinda people :)

Yeah, I'm up at six and start work at seven, so I thought I'd get us started.

How does this fine day find you?

For once
it is a reasonably fine day, in that it's not raining.

But I've just been on my mobile and noticed that the battery is reading very low, despite it having been in the car cradle, and hence being charged. I must investigate.

Today's insignificant news was brought to you by K2k6, and the number 2.71828183.

My phone
is purely a communications device. I use it to speak to people, and send the odd text message. But it annoyed me when on holiday that I had to keep charging it every few days, as normally a couple of trips in the car each day keeps it topped up.

Mind you, some of these all singing all dancing phones seem to need charging every night. I couldn't be arsed with that - I thought that went out with my old brick 12 years ago.

Bring back the Nokia 6310i.

I was just getting back
from the US on Saturday, and thus was unable to bash.

I have however just been looking at Rotating Wobbly Hat's photos, and getting a chuckle. I have to say that many of the b3tards don't look like I imagined, or indeed like their profile pics.

And a high proportion of them seem to smoke!

I also have an image of Tourettes' arse cheeks burned into my brain. Quite traumatic, that pic.

Actually that's not true. I never dislike the sight of female flesh!

Not as bad/random. Fell out with my old roomate, best friend for 7 years a couple of months ago, totally randomly too. Was supposed to stay with her for a couple of days on one of my homeward bound pilgramages, and she arrived to pick me up, had some kind of epiphany in the 5 minutes it took me to get to the carpark and was gone by the time I got there and hasn't spoken to me since.

I'm camping between Northampton and Wellingborough, at a place called Grendon Lakes... www.Grendonlakes.co.uk I think. An old school chum invited me and I haven't seen him in about ten years, so this'll be something of a reunion. And an opportunity to get nicely mashed in the company of like-minded people :)

In other news, I now have a third interview (in London) but because they can´t fit it in while I´m still in England, It´s going to have to be a telephone-interview.

Went to Leeds carnival and saw a massive black woman wearing what appeared to be a tent in the design of the Jamaican flag gyrating at an alarming rate.
She had more spare tyres than your average Kwik Fit and several small children were in danger of being sucked into her orbit and begin floating round her stomach.

it's only recently that my dreams have involved me; in the past I was an observer of what was going on and have dreamt various film type things, usually involving zombies, vampires, monsters etc.

I once dreamt that giant ants with machine guns in their mouths were taking over the earth and that me and the spice girls (this was some time ago when they were first around) stole carol vorderman's car ( a red estate of some kind) and drove to Portsmouth...

the kind of dreams that bleed over into being awake are usually entertaining. I had one where I couldn't remember what the dreams was about, but I knew that I hated the Swiss. I woke up and said out loud, while shaking my fist "fucking Swiss!"

The only dream that stands out to me was one I had when I was meditating (I know!) a few years back. I flew out of my bedroom window, out over the ring road, over some fields and around some electrical wires. I flew around for a while then returned to my room, where I awoke feeling incredibly refreshed.

Now I'm not normally one for airy fairy stuff but I swear I actually FELT everything in that dream... the wind, movement, everything. Come to think of it, I have a lot of flying dreams.

I had a dream (the other day) where there was a B3ta bash in a lodge in Surbiton.

We'd all gone to bed, and a few hours later I woke up naked. Everyone else had gone missing. In my dream I knew that you'd all been kidnapped, but the kidnappers had forgotten me.

I made a run for it, and happened upon another b3tan who was passed out in the street (from the drugs that had been given to them) who was also nekkid.

The rest of the dream involved us both trying to get to safety while protecting our respective modesties. Sadly, we never discovered the other B3tans. Maybe I'll rescue you all tonight! :)

Yeah that's only one I ever have. Other dreams usually involve me wrestling with giant bars of marzipan (marzipan gives me the boake) or just flying about.

The weird thing about the train one is I'm totally aware I'm dreaming so I do random things like run up and down the carriage with my wazzer out (which I hasten to point out I would never do in real life. I think.) Still it saves time on me having to organise things when I'm actually awake I suppose.

Strange dreams FTW
I just love the weirdness of dreams - not just my own but other people´s. I´m not good at lucid dreaming coz usually when I realise I´m in a dream, I wake up immediately. There was one exception where I decided to test out my newly-found omnipotence to create a volcano in the school football-field (if you´ve played Populous, you´ll know where I got that idea from). Sort of succeeded but was only a little one and didn´t get far before I forgot I was in a dream.

Which is all well and good when me, Kelly Brook and Holly Willobourgh are cavorting in a pool of jelly. But not so cool when Barry Scott appears and starts shouting "Bang!" in your face. Knocked me for 6 that did.

Erm, yes. Naughty indeed. But I speak the truth. :) And yes, the holiday was top notch, thanks.

@spakka - I was visiting friends in the US. In the Midwest, unfortunately nowhere near the Loon, and I was coming home by the time clendrix and TRL met up, which was about the same time as the London bash. Bad timing all round.

Edit: Just read the words "Holly Willoughby", "cavorting" and "jelly" in the same sentence. Now that's definitely worth dreaming about.

@mista...the pub is actually directly below my flat so when I run down the stairs in full running gear (which is a brilliant t-shirt with I love NY on it but next to the NY, FAN has been scribbled) and straight in to the pub I get strange looks from the regulars. Especially as I sit and haul my arse on the bar stools and proceed to have a heart attack.

And this is why
I always use one of about a half dozen passwords. I usually use some obscure word and reverse two letters and add numbers or some such- say, taking Bacchus and making it bachcus69. I can remember Bacchus and I can remember 69, so it stays with me.

(And no, I've never used that for a password, so don't bother with it.)

Pick something like the Latin name for a genus of flower, or a type of stone, or the name of a 70's teen heartthrob, switch two letters and add numbers, and you've got an unbeatable password. Choose a few of these and use them for everything. Make sure that your bank password is unique, of course, but things like photobucket or b3ta you can use one of your typical passwords.

Er, yeah. Came over all Kenneth Williams there for a second.

@ Vipros...

Why do I get the impression you're not counting me among the 'stunning regulars'?

@BGB - mmm noodles. *salivates*. I know what you mean about the price of stuff though in London. When we were going down (fnarr) The Captain & I were slagging the place off, but thanks to you delicate lovlies (and I don't just mean Tourettes' funbags), and the relative cheap price of beer in the Cardinal, my heart was won over and I spent the trip to Rakky's gasping in awe of the sights with my head stuck out of the window and my tongue hanging out like a labrador puppy.

I know what you mean - when the Captain and I play a gig it's a case of me doing the work and him being the eye candy for the hotties...

Something like that, but with more hair. Ancrenne got a bit pissed and started lecturing the lady of their group on the advantages of having a really well fitting bra.

I can fully imagine Ancrenne doing that :-)
it is important though, not just for their own sake, but for all of us!

I volunteered...
my...ahem...'measuring services' for bra sizes but nobody would allow me within 10 feet...

(despite how much I paid).

Edit: Even Tourettes made sure a thick piece of glass was between me and her boobage.

Edit2: @MM - I haven't got any photos and they're probably still spacked out from the 21st party on Sunday to provide me with any.

that does sound odd
while I realise that to some people it may not matter at all I am often surprised that people don't stop on the way out of the house and think "hang on, I look like a complete fool/tart/prostitute/slapper/moron and then go and change"

obviously some people do this on purpose, which is fine, but I find it hard to believe that all the people you see dressed absurdly either don't care or look at themselves and think "I look good"

am I coming across too judgemental/vain?

Hullo!
I iz am back!

Sadly (or not?!) I didn't get felt up. It appears I had to register, and then I have to wait two days, and then go back and see a Nurse (peeing in to a ridiculously small tube in the meantime) and then, maybe, I might get a strange man to feel the ghastly lump residing within my testicles.

I wanted to stand there and declare "FEEL MY TESTES! WON'T SOMEONE PLEASE FEEL MY TESTES?" But there was an old woman there.

Glorious!

I am now going to attempt to eat. How are we all?

Sounds like the standard registration process (piss sample, BP and the like) with mong-on-desk not appreciating the urgency. There'll be somewhere local that provides out of hours cover for the local GPs if you can't wait.

If they kick off on one, point out that the official advice on finding an extra bollock is to get to your GP at light speed.

it was definitely a doctor I saw
