Happy Chinese New Year!

:D

Happy Birthday to me!

Exactly one year ago today, I posted my first blog entry!

I'll see you all down the pub for a celebratory drink!

:D

This months stuff!

What I've been listening to:

Pirate Signal - Rinkadink

Lots of obscure German trance from 1996 on 12" Vinyl

The sound of my central heating not working


What I've been looking at:

4000 photographs at an exhibition

My central heating not working


What I've been thinking:

It's very cold in here isn't it?

More tea? Oh go on then...

I've just been informed by someone important at work (he must be important, he had a clip board) that I spend far too long in front of the computer without taking a break (surely some mistake!)

I now have official approval to do less work and drink more tea!

Yay!

:D

Smug!

Not that I'm being very very smug about it (honest, I'm not......Oh, ok then just a bit! heehee!) but this year I have managed to accumulate seven and a half weeks holiday!

That's right! SEVEN AND A HALF WEEKS! :D :D :D

Two weeks of it will be used for my trip to Japan, which due to me being so disorganised looks like it'll probably be sometime around March/April instead of February, but as it said how cold the weather was in Japan on T.V. this morning, maybe waiting for warmer weather is a good idea...

I also think that I'm going to have to get my passport photos done again as the previous picture that I had done makes me look like a convict (not a good look to go for when trying to gain entry into a country!)

I managed to find time over the weekend to familiarise myself with my new DVD camera (sort of) so I have a sneeking suspicion that I'll have the urge to get all "touristy" when I go to Sapporo and film lots of odd things like lamp posts and sections of pavement. Just because I can...

Right, what's next on my list of things to do...Oh yes, buy a nice strong suitcase...

:D

P.S. - If you're in the Camden area (Stables Market to be exact) check out a shop called BlaBla Hospital (stall 34C) and prepare to be amazed!

Swearing!

Oh, I forgot to tell you that I made a New Years resolution to stop swearing.

It's not as f*cking difficult as I thought it would be...

:D

Countdown Japan!

Busy working away preparing for my trip to Japan early this year.

Passport photos all ready and new DVD camera purchased!

Phil, start looking for some good pubs! :D

Oh yeah, anyone know of any good hotels?

Not sure when they start, but I know some of my Japanese readers are doing exams sometime this month (I think!)

Just want to wish them all Ganbatte!

:D
