Good mate of the Rev's used to be the drummer in Pale Saints, now works at the Cockpit and so got us on the guest list for Camera Obscura last night. Cue a riotous night of boozing and frolicking. Rev's doing alright these days and his new pad's really nice. Was just like the old days, without the misery and squalor!
(On another site i post on, we had some nutter/ bot that kept proselytising. They banned her/ him/ it a few days ago. i'm glad they banned her/ him/ it.)
I left a catalogue on the managers desk at work on Monday (I spend most of my time working right next to it), it disappeared, and it's just been delivered through my door again today
Went to Hebden Bridge yesterday to mooch around in the sun with all the hippies, and tomorrow we're taking Luka to Whitby for the first time. Also, my new car is a f*cking dream to drive.
Still have to get my yoke sorted since I crashed it. Hasn't been washed in months because it helps make some of the dings less noticeable
It's a Focus. F*cking bargain. It's ten years old but it's only had two owners from new, has less than 18k on the clock, not a spot of rust and it only cost me eleven hundred quid. Could sell it tomorrow and make a grand, easy.

Love that model of Focus. Always wanted one myself. And 18k miles for a 10 year old car is insane. Mines is only 9 years old and is about to hit 190k.
Mal: Appears we got here just in the nick of time. What does that make us? Zoë: Big damn heroes, sir. Mal: Ain't we just.
(i saw Herman the tortoise yesterday. And i went for a walk with the fiancé, Pearl the dog and Titan the dog. i saw an orange butterfly and a blue dragonfly.)
Edit: Also, i had a card and presents from David-James.
And i found 1p a couple of days ago. And i found a bracelet yesterday.
Can't believe that lunatic Black Francis replaced Kim Deal with another woman named Kim. That shows a level of "I'm not even prepared to learn a new name"-ness that I love.
Today, the fiancé gave me some chocolate crunch and pink custard that he'd bought me. And his mother bought me some bowls. i went to Sainsbury's with him. i walked to near where the trolleys were. Then i stopped as i saw a woman that was driving. She made a magnanimous hand gesture and let me go past. So i smiled at her. The fiancé found a cucumber. i saw a man that was wearing a tree T-shirt. And the very cheerful woman that works at Sainsbury's gave us a promotional travel-related plastic bag.)
(The fiancé bought me a picture of Jesus, a skirt, a glass square that has a star and "friend" written on it, raspberry liquorice and two chocolate p*ts that are like Gu except they're from Wales.)

I know there aren’t many people looking at this anymore… but I have made the decision to stop paying for the VR hosting and to let the domain lapse.
Emma:
I think it will be going offline around the end of May

It’s been almost 10 years since James passed away… and I feel like it’s time.
