Last night I meet Meths at his bands gig... after months of email banter and me calling him a gaylord (he is). Methodaire are quite cool, actually - they even dedicated a song to me (rather fifties, eh?)...
What did everyone do last night?

I spent about 24 hours
travelling from Bangkok to Cardiff, got in at about midnightish. Went straight out for drinks. It was fun.
Ohhh - how are you? Your myspaz accounts of Bangkok have been hilaroius
Bangkok is one city I could live in - I loved it - it's so edgy... really gritty - I want to go back there. Did you bring me back a tuk tuk? I could use one for getting around The Ditch in.
I couldn't live in the 'Kok
it's just too relentless, but it sure is one hell of a city.
I think it would suit my lifestyle
as hate sitting still for too long.. which is why I'd love to live in Bangkok - relentless pace... excellent.
you
love the kok
yay
hi monp, hows life yo?
i went to cdf last night.
i have more to write just not right now
You weren't in Barfly were you?
I thought I saw someone who looked a bit like you, but then I thought "Nah it's not him" so didn't say hello.
ahhh
fuck.
i wandered past the barfly on my way to metros and my mate ceri was on the door and said we could go in for free. but the 2 girls i was with didnt want to bother. piss.
metros was crap. really crap. and i was sober and driving so it was even crapper.
and then i got dragged to another club. even tho i was tired and working at 11.40 this morning.
i drove home, had sushi from tesco's and went to bed at 6.30, up at 11.00 and now i'm in a crappy call centre working with fucjing idiots speaking to (mostly) fools.
i'm a bundle of fun today :S
Don't worry
You didn't miss much. I wasn't there for that long, and I was having sort of reverse-culture-shock or something, and was a bit spun out. There weren't any fit girls there either, and there seemed to be a few twats in attendance as well.
I might be there again tonight :-)
hmmm
tonight is a simple choice of sleepy sleep sleep.
but probably not.
a scanner darkly or snakes on a plane
whats on?
tonight like?
im going to go see the wind that shakes the barley at chapter and probably wont move from there then.....
actually, 24 hours in transit - almost as bad as 30 hours flying to Oz
hardcore.
yeah,
but 17 of it was getting from the m4 into cardiff centre!
:P
how you going, richy rich, the richest of the richiest riches?
see above
i'm pissy.
but i'm still smiling
:)
or
39 hours travel from a little town in China back to the UK via 4 planes and lots of time in airports.
Less exotically
I spent my evening nurturing my hatred of russel brand
he's a fucking twat- - totally
i went to the Purple Turtle
and danced to Obvious Indie Tunes.
it was fun.
Sat at home
Wallowed
Uploaded crappy holiday photos
ate fruit
.
Went to Diver's girlfriend's private view at a gallery in Krapy Rubsnif. Got drunk.
Went to the Fullback and got drunker.
Came home, had a smoke, went to bed.
Woke up and WATCHED FOOTBALL FOCUS! AMAZING!
i had a Night In
shouldn't you be in Huntingdon?
i'm not going. it's raining. i can only do 1 rainy festy and that will be leeds/reading
I decided not to go... as have to work all day tomorrow (like, really)
and due to excessive rain, decided couldn't be arsed getting the wellingtons out. I am actually not to phased about it, tho - nice making a decision and feeling I've done the right thing... But really, having to work tomorrow decided it all for me.
but it's awesome
i would've loved to have gone
knowing that you wouldn't have been there makes not going a bit easier
that's
sweet. i think.
where are you on about?
secret garden
ta
you going to the kerrang awards on mon?
nah
maybe the aftershow... on thursday
Knowing you aren't there Raz makes it even better for me too!!!
It would have been fucking wicked tho... I have 7 friends there now. Pricks.
i
thought the awards were on mon.
shit, better try to change my shifts again
after work
i went out with some of the boys and we went to the Slug first then to Pitcher then on The Meat Market (aka Abacus) i pulled a fitty and have just got home.
= I win.
you "sure do"
you sexy beast.
I love you
too
fitty?
hope he was a bit older than the last one, marky.
.
My house mate had a birthday party with rubbish bands in the basement, I watched big brother then went to bed
who won??
**googles....
I went to the Metro club and witnessed
the most 80s metal band ever called King Lizard. They sucked so much they ruled. Er, teah.
Then I went to the best pub in London (The Royal George) and then I went home becasue I felt quite ill. For a fucking change.
I went to see
Tape at the jazzy hipster venue Blå. They weren't any good.
I have just finished being drunk from the ordeal.
hm
I travelled all night. I was sat next to a little girl on the ferry who constantly threw up as the boat rocked and as she caught a whiff of the pungent crap the cafeteria was churning out. Despite the boat being late, I still had a three hour wait before the coach would arrive. It was about midnight when we hit asda, I've never been and so was bowled over by the prices and nearly tried to buy the whole shop since I had a feeling it would be a waste and non-opportunist of me not to. Luckily I resisted, I bought some new clothes. My friends however weren't so lucky, 50 stick on nails, a chalkboard, 50 black socks and a minature guitar keyring were some of the items they bought.
are
you still drunk?
i went to a gig
monkey swallows the universe and champion kickboxer at sheffield boardwalk, both of whom are ace! there was a fake seagull and bunting too. fun.
went
for nice food and drinkies at a trendy bar. went to friends house and watched twin peaks on his projector whilst drinking beers, home for a magnum and finish watching from here to eternity, then internet posty posty.
went to Voo's album launch party
got pissed. Had a kebab. Shouted at my front door when I couldn't open it etc
that sounds fucking COOOLLLLL
watching TWIN PEAKS on a projector - how apt.
I wish to god they would hurry up and release teh second series on DVD - I can't wait much longer!
yeh it was pretty amazing
had coffee, cherry pie and candals. great stuff. apparently lynchy is remastering series 2 as soon as he finished editing his next film Inland Empire.
sorry
candles. can't spell today.
its spelled
T-O-D-A-Y
I knew what you meant!
Wish Lynchy would hurry up!
Hmmmm - I feel like cherry pie and coffee now... Hmmmm... nice filtered coffee.
Fuck Dale Cooper is hot. HOTTTTT I tell you!!!!!!
my gf
used to have a white cardigan with black polka dots and a little skirt that matched that i used to dub her audrey outfit. then the colours ran on the top, and my *ahem* life was ruined.
rose
have you ever been to the retro bar on sunday afternoons?
apparently they show episodes of twin peaks in there every week :o)
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHERE IS THE RETRO BAR?????????????????????????????????
i PMed
you :o)
I've got it
on glorious pirated dvds!!! It is too good!
except for
the wanky james episode which rips off the postman always rings twice. SHITE!!!! not even redeemed by the bit where he rides on a motorbike for about 5 minutes with the same stupid music playing over and ober and you think you're brain is dying.
I saw the new Stoppard play.
It was very good.
nice
i need to get some theatre action - perhaps that will be my next option
i sat at home
watched Big Brother and got misreable
fun
Went to see a
"Korean Monster Movie" at the film festival. Stayed up far too late with chips and the internet.
i sat at home
watched Big Brother and got cheerful
fun!
for
'cheerful' read 'drunk'
;)
more
than likely.
:D
i worked
and then came home and talked to a drunk girl on msn
and,
i just found out, i got shit on by people i considered friends
KICK THEM!
yes,
i will.
(i wont, i'll just be emo in the corner and then move to london)
Worked.
I heard one of the (50 year old) barmaids call me 'braindead' to one of the others so I confronted her about it.
She looked scared. I'm not that scary at all to be honest. The irony is, she's really dim. We were talking politics, and we were discussing the BNP and how you'd never vote them. She said, 'I'm half-Irish. So if Bnp got in, they'd come and kill me. They HATE everyone who isn't English.' Which is wrong in about 3 ways. I Lolled.
Then I opened the cellar door on to a customer's arm and she was like :'( .
