New boots!
Purple leather just below the knee ones I found reduced in M&S, from £50 to £15. Cant work out what's wrog with them I've decided to wear them around the house all evening.

alright stimpy
m&s are so fucking expensive. i saw a lovely pair of black patent peep-toes the other week...sixty fucking quid :(
( rosalicious i fucking love youve been framed, Sat 14 Nov 2009, 17:40, Reply)

It is stupid in there some times
I only really buy when reduced. Hopefully these should last me a good 5 years or so. If they don't, I'll send them back on fire.

ive had my knee high black campers for twelve years now
and theyve only just started to gay out on me. paid £130 for those bastards up covent garden. i cant find another pair i like now :(((((
( rosalicious i fucking love youve been framed, Sat 14 Nov 2009, 18:24, Reply)

Always the way
For that money though I'd expect them to last that long. Most expesive I ever bought was my steel toes, £90. Had them for years, scarred to hell but still going strong as ever.

I'm good thanks
Been working like a bastard, and had a fair bit o' cash cos of overtime so i've been kinda overdoing it on the entire drinking/drugs/pub/party thing. All good fun, but there's some folks who want to speak to me who I don't want to see, and some folks who I want to see who aint speaking to me anymore, and i'm not exactly sure of the details! How's you been?
(Fredz A graveyard of hopes, a dump of ambition, Sat 14 Nov 2009, 18:01, Reply)

Oh dear oh dear!
I hope you don't discover the details. Remain blissfully ignorant if you can. I'm cool. I've been alternating between staying in and going and eating/drinking in nice civilised places. My mother thinks aliens have replaced me and that my boozy violent slaggy return is imminent.

Trouble is, people love to tell me the details
Especialy the ones about when I told "The beach story" or who I wound up with, or where. I'd love to remain blissfully ignorant, and even if they're making half of it up I still have some serious apologies to make, mostly to my liver.

Yeah but...
When I bump into peripherals, I just act like I know what happened and they generally stay vague. People only enjoy it if they think they're the ones telling you something awful that you didn't know.
( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Sat 14 Nov 2009, 18:28, Reply)

That's quite a good plan!
I should try it sometime. But part of me needs to know what happened, otherwise my imagination and sense of dread will fill in the details, and that's always gonna be worse

I have my DM's, a pair of converse so old they aint realy shoes anymore and a pair of very old skate trainers. I keep meaning to get a pair of posh shoes, but my DM's usualy do ok for weddings/interveiws/funerals and the like.

I have some rather intriguing Dominican elegante cigars which would cover that eventuality magnificently. That's a damn fine idea. And while I'm on I'll put some Salieri on the gramophone, probably his Requiem in C minor. It's shaping up to be a Good Evening.

Only 2/3 of it is holy
My mum gave me her Wedgewood ring that her dad gave her when she turned 18, so when I turned 18 I bought myself a necklace. I also wear a small medal with Mary on one side, and the Apparition of the Virgin to St. Bernadette, and a charm my favourite aunt gave me at first confession, of a dove in a wreath.

So if I get hit by a bus, God will forgive me :)

the other 1/3 is Classical :)

Fucking love them.
I saw them twice a couple of years ago when they were touring... front row both times. Jenny Lewis is ridiculously beautiful up close.

I've seen em too. She's a darling.
Did you see her tour with those twins? They gave out a song sheet! It was ace.

No I didn't :( couldn't afford it if I remember rightly.
They had Ewen McGuinness supporting them the first time and he was pretty good, and the second time Grand Ole Party who I wasn't overly fond of.

Ebay
Get a good pair of Logitechs. Although, if it's volume youre after, a good power set of 2.1 will knock the crap out of any cheap 5.1s. Or, find yourself a theatrey friend who knows their sound kit and get them to build you one - had a mate back home who did it and had something stupid like 200w per channel, and a 1.2k sub. Sounded fantastic, but he said he wanted something bigger, but didn't want to run so much power through the mains.

I've had a couple of techy friends in my time
including one who keeps telling me to come and visit him and his Mrs (they came to see me and then-Flatmate a couple of months ago) so I may raid his kit.

I like the idea of subjecting the neighbours to extremely loud Guns N' Roses.

Right you lot
I'm going for a while. Might be back later. Have fun but don't get into trouble...

The amount of trouble I get into
will be inversely proportional to the quantity of wine left in the bottle.

Have fun :)

Eh
