Cheers might be worth me checking that one out

Cant pay them as not getting paid for the shoot unfortunately so needs to be a case of just wandering in, taking pics and then leaving

Somewhere over prudhoe way ideally but anywhere within about a 10 mile radius of town would work

Nice one mate, thanks for the link

Ok strange request but does anyone know of any disused buildings, or derelict ones where i can just walk in to them without having to scale a 10 foot high fence with warnings of guard dogs and arrest? I need an indoor location for a photoshoot and it needs to be "edgy" so the shittier the better basically lol Any suggestions?

I could never eat anything that is only a few letters away from the word "placenta" Apparently it's lovely with a bit of garlic and onions. And some red sauce?

Winner!

Jesus christ man what a waste of a weekend! Surely you can find something better to do like playing fifa in your pants with tissue mountain piled up on the table next to your laptop with youporn.com loaded up?

Just wanted to add my take on things to the OP: 1) You hate your job and rightly so... tbh how you've stuck it this long I do not know! Credit where credit's due there, but seriously it reached breaking point a long time ago and you are falling in to the trap of being more afraid to leave because of the unknown, then you are of staying there IMO... Its a common trap people fall in to, but you have your whole life ahead of you and to stay in a horrendeous job with no prospects is beyond foolish... it will actually ruin your life and leave you with regrets of what you could have done if you'd got out while you were still young and didn't have commitments like a mortgage and kids. Once you have these you WILL be stuck and it WILL be too late. 2) Where you live sounds like a dead end area, so even if you get out of this job then what? You need to go where the work is, yes its a risk to leave for somewhere else if you dont have a job, but guess what? If you go to a decent sized city they have recruitment agencies that will at the very least get you a temp job... my wife lost her job over a year ago, went to every recruitment agency in Newcastle and had a new one in 2 weeks. It was only temping but it kept her ticking over until a full time position came along. 3) What are your goals, ambitions and hopes for your life? How do you intend on achieveing them? What skills and qualifications do you have? Are you worried you dont have enough to compete in the job market? If so why dont you go to Uni? Quit your job, move to a city and attend a Uni, get a degree, live in student digs or a shared house and get a bar job or call centre job part time to help pay the bills while you study. 4) Is your girlfriend willing to go where ever you need to go to make you happy? Would she follow you to the ends of the earth if it meant you were happy and fulfilled your ambitions and dreams? Or is she a small town girl who doesn't want to leave where she grew up and wants you to stay there even if it makes you unhappy? If its the latter then is she really the right woman for you? If it's the former then you can move together and start a new and exciting life together. Lots of questions I know but I just wanted you to think about your life in the long term and not just the short term. I'm speaking from personal experience with a lot of the above, I moved to Newcastle for a girl who wouldn't follow me to Leeds where I wanted to live, she wasn't right for me so I left her and eventually found a woman who would litteraly follow me to Mars if I wanted to relocate there. She was a small town girl and our ambitions in life just didn't match, however my wife supports me with every decision I make, even if it were to the detriment of herself. I've had jobs where I felt I was stuck trapped and unhappy, so each time I've re-trained and moved on to something new... it's not easy, its a always a risk, but life is about taking risks... If you settle for 2nd best you'll always feel like you haven't lived your life the way you should have. Reading your story you don't just need a small change or adjustment, IMO you need to evaluate EVERY aspect of your life, and TBH change a huge part of it... You need something to get the blood pumping through your vains again and new and exciting challenges. There's always a million reasons not to do something, If I were you I'd stop looking at these and look at the reasons why you must do something and why you must do it now, and then I'd make it happen. Good luck!

Haha I never knew that but you're totally right!!! Maybe mouth breathers are on to something!

should've got one of the nerds on here to do it for ye on the cheap haha luckily I know a nerd who did it for free

Hows business anyways Andy? Sounds promising kid! It's going well thanks mate Got 4 weddings lined up over the next 12 months... not charging much but it's enough to cover my expenses and also pay for a bit of extra gear like new lenses etc. Also great for the portfolio and experience so I can start charging a decent amount more for the year after weddings. Also got a few interests in family studio shoots but nothing concrete yet, doing one for free just to add to the portfolio but also might have some paid one's in the pipe line hopefully. It's going to take a while for me to establish myself but I think I've got off to a decent start so far. It's been hard work but I can see the future rewards which keeps me motivated.

Going to a venue to check out lighting etc for a wedding i'm shooting in december, then a meeting with my web designer on Saturday.... Sunday meeting a couple who are getting married next year to meet them, get deposit and paperwork signed... then putting up a mirror and noticeboard in the spare room/office. All work really but hoping to get to Escobars in the Metro Centre for a meal and maybe Paranormal Activity 3 on Saturday night so it's not all work and no play!

I'm sorry but what?!! Foreskin forward or back? Is that a new option or craze? Why would you roll your foreskin back to take a piss?

Haha I did unfortunately! The weird thing is she can breath through her nose but just chooses not too?!! Very odd!

Why not nose? If you try can your breath through it ok?

Just wondering if people on here breath mainly through their mouth or nose? My wife breaths always through her mouth and I just think that is really weird!!! Yet she thinks its perfectly normal.

Absolutely brilliant! I love Derren Brown anyway, but I love a good conspiracy theory too so this was right up my street. Thought the whole thing was simply genious and raised a lot of questions regarding the assasination of Bobby Kennedy

Not had anything exciting happen today so far but off for a swim, steam and sauna in a few hours. Not exactly the most exciting way to finish the working week but its a nice way to wind down I reckon

Ahh ok that would explain why the dog is Australian then! Yeah probably doesn't get away with as much but I still think its brilliant... mainly because of the dog and all the things he does that I pick up on due to being a dog owner

I didnt realise there was an original Aussie version so definately the US remake with Bilbo Baggins or whatever he's called

Been watching this and think its a really excellent program... anyone else seen it?

Never heard of that mate, but then again my parents were miserable gits and closed the curtains, didn't answer the door to trick or treaters and refused to let me go out and trick or treat. So I'm probably not the best judge lol

Haha unfortunately not
