Why is it that when people are tone-deaf and know they are, still continue to try and sing for people around them. Do they have any shame at all??? I have one in the office and it is driving me spare! She is too the point that when she starts I start sniggering or do the 'bfffft' that people do. The bffft is something that makes people stop laughing out loud when they realise they might be hurting someones feelings. I find quite a lot of what people say to me a humorous side and I think my sarcastic humor gets me into more trouble than favour sometimes... until they get used to it of course!

Booked tix for Groove Armada in December with the boys and it seems we have quite a crew together for a great night out. Also getting some tix for the Faithless show a week later which should also be incredible. Finally am getting out more to live events which I have been missing very much. You know them.. it has people.. lots of screaming girls and someone accidentally spills his beer all over your new shirt/trousers (I have learnt not to say 'pants' in England.. people give me strange looks when I say "I spilt something on my pants!" or "Thar be creases `n me Panteloons! Arrrr!").

Tonight is a birthday bash for the MD. She is upstairs organising the events room to some extent with her legion of event coordinators. About 200+ people are rocking along and I should be hob-nobbing with some really 'I have a large pole up my rectum and love it' type of people. It goes until about 2am and I feel that Friday work will take up most of everyones time of chatting about tonight and the 'dropping name' game will begin. I'm not used to meeting quasi-famous people and usually am myself. Met this big dude the other week and everyone called him Mr ***** and I just called him by his first name when I shook his hand and said 'So you're an ex-rugga player eh.. I couldn't play the sport, they would have snapped me like a twig.' Needless to say he chatted to me a little more than anyone else.

Anyhow not much life thoughts at the moment to discuss with y'all and I'm sure y'all bored with my 'I did this and this' crud which every numpty writes about.

'Missing home.... someone post it too me in a small cardboard box with a ribbon... if no ribbon use rope and make sure its tied in some nifty boy scout knot!'
