Randomly passing time…

I have this bizzare tickle in the back of my throat which is really making it hard for me to pay any attention to what I’m writing, and that’s really annoying because I don’t get the chance to write these very often. How annoying, huh?

So, just excuse me a seccond while I grab a glass of water.

That’s better.

Anyway, as I was saying, that’s how the generic non-descript football team ended up loosing in the undefined sports league. Back to the more important matters at hand though, namely, how can I have written two blogs in the same minute. Well the answer, shortly, is I have not. I’ve been cheating. I’ve been writing my blogs in notepad and then uploading them when the moment permits, and that moment hasn’t permitted for nearly two months now.

Time is the problem see, I know absaloutely nobody cares but you never know, do you? For all I know there’s a search party out there right now, looking to check I didn’t fall over the white cliffs of dover, a landmark I have never visted.

I bought a brand new Jaw-Dropping Highly Obscenely Expensive King-o-Tron 6000 in High Definition projector, since my old projector went absaloutely tits-up due to a power surge or an exploding bulb or something. Considering it was second hand and the menu was in Japanese, that was on the cards sooner rather later though. Still, I bought my new one new, hence the term new one, and while it only displays 720p rather than 1080i or 1080p (though it can scale these down, naturally) – it does provide a fantastic picture, at a size of over 100 inches no less. Infact, just to illustrate the size, and to make the page look more interesting, here are a few photos.

I also finally got round to getting a new watch, since my old one went kapoodle. I managed to get one of those System One do-dar travel passess too, which is nice. My photo looks awful though – I figured I’d remember something funny while getting the picture done so I was naturally smiling on the picture, and it’s turned out looking like I was crack.

Funny story I was remembering, see, someone who I know threw his TV out of his window in order to claim on the insurance. He didn’t open the window first, though, and being on the 35th floor, this didn’t really end very well. He was evicted rather quickly and I don’t believe the insurance company bought the fact that he was out at the time, as his story naturally conflicts with the police report.

I also won at the Pub Quiz this week, first time I’ve won anything really, even if it was just a bottle of white wine. No, I didn’t use Google, and I resent the implication. Really. I didn’t. Honest.*

Anyway, better call it a day, supposed to be doing work here.

The joy of life…

“It’s not that there’s anything wrong with what you’re wearing, Sharon, it’s just the fact that you can’t see it that lets it down.”

Yes, folks, that can only mean one thing – a work-do. By that, I mean a work-related event put together by the company which you pretend is fun, but in reality you’re on edge, constantly looking at how much you’ve had to drink, and sitting there looking at your collegues wearing the most outragous outfits.

Just to flesh it out a bit, this particular shin-dig was an awards ceremony – basically an excuse for everyone to get pissed up and pat each other on the back at the expense of the company. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m up for needless spending as much as the next man, but the problem here is the fact that I, yours truly, ended up featuring on a 50ft tall video screen, in St. Peters Square, Manchester.

Still, I’ve managed to avoid the ribbing so far, since my good buddy Angela managed to make a far worse mistake than agreeing to the photograph in the first place. She got into a taxi and asked to go to the station, a pretty costly mistake as she found out quite quickly when she arrived at Manchester Piccadilly and her train left Manchester Victoria. £70 taxi fare back to the outskirts of Liverpool, quite high for a scoucer. Ouch.

Anyway, congratulations are in order as this is the longest space between updates since the last update, which I can feel from the vibes was a major dissapointment to all. I think the problem stems from the fact that I just can’t be arsed anymore, yet refuse to cave in to the pressure to sign up to Facebook.

Facebook is actually reaching a truely frightning level, you know. My auntie who is approaching her 50′s and is made from 70% cigerette ash is on there, and was asking me to poke her last time she was down. This is enough to put you off the internet for life, frankly. Not even Messenger has reached that level of user popularity.

Anyway, I’m actually for certain going to put this what I am writing right here up on my website that you’re reading right now some time this week, and I’m also putting up a bunch of train photos on the train site dating from as far back as four months ago, which I just never got round to updating. If I get the time I’ll actually put up the content bit of this site, but you all know by now that the chances of this happening are about as slim as my man-boos suddenly changing into rippling pecs.

P.S. Sky+ HD is awesome. More high-def goodness soon.
