I think it was the 12 year olds calling them poofs that really put them off.

Nah. It's my dad, so they'll have got it 'cos it was cheaper than the alternatives.

You're in London?

I recorded nearly all of the first four seasons of B5 from the TV on VHS. I think I missed the second ep of season 2 and maybe a couple in season 4.

I totally will be watching it. Take it that you've seen some of it and it's good?

Oh arse. Buying radiators was on my list of things to do today.

Well if it gives you anything to look forward for, here in London it turned to winter real fucking quick.

I'm British and therefore faintly embarrassed at anything affecting me emotionally. Other than where the emotion is embarrassment, clearly.

Hey everybody! Free pants!

I have run out of clean underwear and had to go and buy more today.

@LurkyMcLurkerson:disqus - surely you need two months at the end to feed whisky or brandy to the cake. Best get started now!

Imagine living in a wall?!

I was just contemplating the bottle of Innis & Gunn in my fridge last night. It is indeed very tasty stuff, but actually I kind of fancy something a bit crisper. Once you've drunk a lot of it, I&G can seem a bit sickly-sweet.

Around summer 98, a couple of my friends from uni came up to visit me in Newcastle. Because they asked, I took them to see Byker.

Purple Rain. I am faintly embarrassed at how much this song affects me emotionally.

Queens of the Stone Age - Six Shooter
The Beatles - Cry Baby Cry
Mindless Self Indulgence - Never Wanted to Dance
Iron Maiden - Isle of Avalon
Beastie Boys - Flute Loop

I haven't gotten any further yet, so I'm going to ignore this thread and let you spoil up to ep 12 without complaint.
