Today is going pretty damn slowly, so BBC News has offered some interesting tidbits of information…
Doctors baffled by man’s ‘decades’ without food or water - I admit it, he’s my uncle

Yeah - that many. One move. Don’t mess with me on Tony Hawk 2 (and for all you fake ass gangsta sk8r boi wannabes out there who think they could pull that shit off - just bring it: you know where we be, in da club all tha god damn time)…ok people might have bettered it but I don’t care it meant a lot to me, ok?!!?!?
ANYWAY, so the Italian invasion didn’t really happen (something about a change of plans - great!) but I have it on good authority that tonight on flat RA69CRAP from Bologna there will be a suicide bomber (ahem…i mean passenger) on board bound for London. We can but pray.
On the domestic NGO front….no news.
On the ca$h front, I decided last night to really spend every single penny I have left before payday on Thursday, so I took the trusty Switch card to Safeway and bought…Doughnuts!!!! With toffee inside!!! Respect to me!!! I think this solves the eternal riddle - “If you could only eat one thing before you were a broke-a$$ hobo then what would it be?”.
This meant that last night, except for paying £6 for a 6 minute phonecall (IM SO STUPIDDDDDDD (but that’s another story) I watched 8 episodes of CSI (end of series 1 and start of series 2) and ate doughnuts until my eyes bulged (TM Sky+ )…
On the subject of CSI, last night’s episodes were good, not amazing, but good - except for one…the first episode in series 2 is absolutely TERRIBLE and it’s worth finding it on the Internet (pay any royalty fee for your downloads direct to the tv company, please…) and watching just for laugh factor. The acting is almost Hollyoakes standard (I said almost…)

Yeah so I protested yesterday at ‘the biggest street protest ever’ (ahem….on a…ahem….weekday…) but it was…ok…nothing special…
But we drank COCKTAILS after so it was all good!! I got my book from Amazon today - so cool! Soon I will be a PHP king and everyone will kneel before me. One small geek point is that I have been quite pleasantly suprised by my own ability to work with perl with seemingly no (touchwood) problems…our Conference Calendar is nearly ready (URL to come soon!) and it’s looking good!
To add to the crazy blast from past people talking to me, Ly-Ly the lovely Scottish monkey (no offence darling) popped up out of the blue today - and it was groovy to talk to her! I think maybe everyone’s got to that time in their life when they’re remembering the ‘good old days’ (=FRANCE) and so they want to reminisce….or maybe they’re all bored to fuck. I agree….

After the most hardcore work session this morning the boss came up with a novel idea - to have beer! This job’s the dream!!! I just went to to this tiny Venezuelan café for lunch and ate some little thing that was like a crispy pancake but without the crumbs. And full of chicken! Answers on a postcard….
Ok bar calls now but will update!!
