Oh wow, it's been a long time! I've had a pretty stressful week, what with trying to finish Pears. I was working on another song for the Cancer fund-raiser, but I had to give up on that. It's pretty obvious that I'm incapable of working on more than one song at a time. It's like I can't focus on something new until I've finished the current project ( Read more... )

Shit, I should update this before I go away for the weekend. So, I'm going away for the weekend! My parents have flown to Coventry to stay with my Nan for Easter, so I'm going to visit them today, coming back on Monday. There isn't really a lot to do in Coventry (Whenever I've gone there since moving to Cambridge, I've always had trouble finding ( Read more... )

A brief rundown of my visit to Coventry last weekend is in order, I think. I arrived around midday on Saturday and walked to my Nan's. It's been quite a while since I last saw her. She's doing pretty well all told, but the arthritis has turned her hands into misshapen claws. Her feet were the same until she had an operation to correct them, which ( Read more... )

I was looking for a bar/restaurant similar to someplace I might eat at in Cambridge. You'd be surprised how hard it is to find somewhere like that in Coventry; Last time I was there with Dad, we had a pretty hard time finding somewhere nice to eat, rather than somewhere like Wetherspoons. When I was leaving on the coach that time, however, I ( Read more... )

So. I went to the station after work on Friday. While finding out which platform I had to go to, I wondered if I'd remembered to take my ticket with me when I left the house in the morning. Not hopeful, I had a look in both of my bags, but couldn't find it. Cursing my idiocy, I waited for a taxi, and went home, through some fairly heavy traffic. ( Read more... )

I dyed my hair again last night. Still blue, I just felt like it needed a bit of a refresher, as it was looking pretty sad. Add to that the fact that I'm wearing my classic red raver trousers (It's Red Nose Day today, and we were all asked to wear at least one item of red), and I look pretty colourful! The girl on reception applauded me on the ( Read more... )

Did I mention I'm going back to Coventry for the Easter weekend? I don't think I did.. Well, I am! In a few hours, actually. I should pack some stuff into a bag, really... but first, I'll write this ( Read more... )

I've got quite a few things planned for April. More than did in March, anyway. First up is next Sunday: rappingshoe is coming to Guildford for a few hours. I expect we'll do at least three of the following five things: Get something to eat in a café; Walk around a bit; Commit some kind of murder; Write a screenplay; Cough ( Read more... )
