  1. Mastodon live at Rock In Rio streaming on youtube right now! Later, Metallica! #rockinrio
  2. It's horribly warm outside! I'd forgotten how much I hate summer...
  3. According to this letter from the TV licensing people, I have to pay £145 a year to watch television on a mobile phone...? F#*k off.
  4. Although that does include a free meerkat toy...
  5. There's a used Toyota Hilux for sale on my street, only £995. Got an insurance quote out of interest - £7688 per year. Think I'll leave it.
  6. For Whom the Bell Tolls may have just replaced The Grapes of Wrath as my all-time favourite book. Never thought I'd see the day...
  7. @RHL1 In the last week I've had one parcel lost, one parcel was the wrong item, and one was left out to be ruined by rain! AAAARRRRGGGGHHH!
  8. So my parcel arrived at the Liverpool depot, only to be sent to the National depot in Coventry, so it can be sent back to Liverpool...right.
  9. The most expensive book I've ever brought got delivered today. The postman decided to leave it on the doorstep in the torrential rain...
  10. Sort of defies the point when I have to ring up ParcelForce to tell them to update the online tracking information.
  11. The last three times I've travelled there have been train strikes. At least today is different. Oh wait....
  12. When bidding on eBay I always imagine competing bidders as soulless, vampiric creatures who steal from the poor and cheat on their taxes...
  13. When you can't afford a bookshelf... twitter.com/AdamJacklin/st…
  14. Tonight's discovery: no matter how many times you play the Pink Panther theme on guitar, it never gets boring.
  15. @MikeHollows Old ladies have a gift. They see and know things we never will... Unless you are happy, in that case she was just crazy.
  16. So long Sarkozy. You were incredibly entertaining, but apparently that's not what people want....for now.
  17. Last night's dream: I got off a train in a futuristic rail station. Went to the baggage collection and got shot three times...that was it...
  18. Holding my trusty Gibson Les Paul in my hands for the first time in months. It's been too long.
  19. Saw Ricky Tomlinson again today. One of these days I'll pluck up the courage to say hello. One of these days...
  20. Keep your chin up @tpb All publicity is good publicity. #piratebay
