Air Bear (Seen On The Streets Of New York)

I've been receiving emails from rickygervais.com for some time now; ever since i signed up to the site to download free mp3's of his show. Once he started charging for those mp3's, I lost all interest - he's not that good (any more).

So I decided to unsubscribe. …

H. and I nipped out last night after work to catch Heavy Trash & The Sadies at The 100 Club in London's West End.

Surprisingly, The Sadies were also the support act, coming on sometime around 8.30pm.

Now listening to: The Sadies - The Last Inquisition (Part …

Here in the latest of slightly iffy videos that they play in my Gym is 'Freaks' by The Creeps; or 'The Creeps' by Freaks. I'm not sure which and I'm certain that where vampire cheerleaders are concerned it doesn't really matter...

Oh, and speaking of Creeps, my car got …

Wow, it seems like ages since I last wrote on my blog and so much has happened between now and then - not least, xmas and new year!

Anyway, I'm gonna gloss over xmas - 'cause I spent (at least some of) it with those I know and hold dearest, meaning they know all …

Lindy Hop again last night at Swing Cats Corner. Week two was a rather less stressful affair, and I was able to keep up with what the instructor was saying and showing us, even if I couldn't remember all the turns when it came round to actually doing it! The …

Last night H. and I went to see The Chemical Brothers at Brixton Academy, the venue was absolutely packed making dancing a little difficult, but we somehow managed.

I was a little disappointed that the set was played very like a band set, rather than a night of "avin' …

This weekend, H. and I drove to a wedding in Highclere Castle.

I didn't realise it beforehand, but it appears that Highclere is the home of Carnarvon, and was the home of the 5th Earl of Carnavon: famous for discovering the tomb of Tutankahmun along with Howard Carter. …

Last night H. and I went dancing.

Lindy Hop, at Swing Cats Corner to be precise. The beginner's class began at 7.15, and after a couple of pints to 'loosen up' we began with a basic 6-step; which was fine. Then a move was added, and we changed partners, and then a move …

Went to see CSS at Brixton Academy last night with J., B. and H. and had a blast.

H. had gone home from work early with a bad headache, so it was hit and miss whether or not she'd make it - but with a little gentle persuasion...

For the first time ever, we were sat in …

A quick check on the facebook status of some of my friends reveals that

Shiona is happy when it rains;

Niall is freaking out in a moonage daydream, and

Janine is tangled up in blue.

They've got good taste, my friends.

Sunday 2nd December:

A walk to Columbia Road, Brick Lane and Spitalfields markets, topped off by dinner in S&M Cafe all before driving P. back to Euston , arriving five minutes before his train left for Macclesfield. Oh, and I bought a loofah.

Saturday 1st December:

When I was looking for a new job last year, it took me about four or five months to get a position, despite several interviews. Now, I find myself on the opposite side of the interview process as my current company looks for a new Java Developer. I've been tasked with …
