The hardest part of being an adult Jul 11
So most who know me would point out that i am the furthest thing from an adult, but i still face some problems of that nature. Recently i was sick, but remained in a great deal of discomfort for days not being sure if i was really sick enough to take myself to hospital.... WARNING: This blog is long and boring!
Dark rum, light rum, gold rum, its a pirates life for me. Jun 28
Despite my rather ginger approached to spirits recently i asked my friend Jimmy for his recipe for some tasty rum drinks that kept us through the warm English summer last year. I thought I might post them here so that 1)Everyone can enjoy them, 2)I know a place to find them and 3)I haven't posted a blog in a very long time. I'll quote the recipe here as it was described to me, including the creatures beer that you're told to open and swig from time to time while mixing.....
A gamble, a scam May 25

Bands. A shortcut to the mammary glands May 11
Excuse the title if you're offended. I would love to be in a band or two and perhaps not only for the obvious shallow reason most boys do. The problem lies in the sound you seek.

I thought influences where supposed to dictate sound. More recently they appear to have almost no impact at all....
Rage brings excitement !! Apr 27
