Invites to play warhammer and/or anything to do with crystalized ginger have to be sure things...... right?

AND - would you believe it - UKTV G2 now starts at 9am - IN THE MORNING!! NINE O'CLOCK!!!!! Will this craziness NEVER END????!!!! Sorry... so many ad breaks.... been brainwashed.......

..... probably....

I'm more than ready to be a laughing bystander yet again

My pirate name is Pirate McPirateson. The Fourth. Actually, it's not, but I can't be arsed to follow the link. Shiver me timbers, and all that. 19th Sept is one of the best days of the year. Not JUST because it's Steve's birthday either....

Gah. Why do we have to live in a country with a crapola F1 circuit that has NO PUBLIC TRANSPORT. I think I'd have to get a taxi from the train station. That's not good, really, is it? OR I could persuade Dad to take me.... Hmmmm..... that has drawbacks. Such as admitting to him how much Uni I'd be missing... how much money I'd spent on it all... and him cramping my style as I try to find Jenson. Arrghhhhh........ why I can't I be the type of person that's happy to just dismiss stupidly crazy ideas when I realise that they're stupidly crazy? WHY do I have to go "that's a stupidly crazy idea....... but I'm sure I can make it work!!!!!" I should never have got a student loan. It's BAD. I can't say no to this stuff when I have over a grand sitting in my accout. With another £1000 coming in in a few months time. It's just BAD. I can't NOT spend it on trying to meet racing drivers. Tum te tum. My head's a big silly place to be in. At least you only have to cope with it intermittently, whenever I post..... I have it *ALL DAY LONG*. It wearys me.

Excuse me..... *YOUR* thread...???!!!

We could talk of the happiness of Cute Boy at the BAR Merch Stand recognising me when I went back to buy something else at the end of the day. Not that I in *any* way made sure that he served me both times...... I'm so pathetic!! Why did I buy a Jordan F1 lighter?! I don't even smoke. Actually, there IS an answer. A - I wanted Jordan (the team, not Katie Price, that'd be weird) memorabilia, seeming as it is no more. And the lighter was the cheapest thing going, at 100 pennies. And B - I need a lighter for Tim Minchin's gig... and I've misplaced at least one of the ones I bought for his show in Edinburgh.. so more lighters are all good. I never owned a lighter before I knew Tim. He is encouraging my slight pyromania (I just like flicking the lighters on and looking at the flame... it's pretty.... that's not psychologically worrying is it??)

discombobulation.

Love you emppy!!

Oooo... Ryan Reynolds is hot.... And now, after that pertinent and highly respected remark, I shall bid ye all farewell until the morrow (or, perhaps, Thursday, maybe).

You didn't *really* need to repeat yourself... I only PMed you about it too, because you weren't replying here and I wanted to get your attention on the matter. I think something might even arrive from the US!!! HURRAH - I SAW MY HERO TODAY *heart* Johnny Herbert so much! Haha... I told him to draw a pic with the crayon... and he just *looked* at me, and I grinned and nodded, so he grinned back, and then just drew a stickman lol. Swine! Coulthard drew without me even having to ask... he drew an F1 car. Interessant.... I have 4 drawings in my autograph book... all of them are self portraits.... Tsk. Famous people. What are they like!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LUKEY!!!! You old man, you!

Fishie, what's your friend's first name??

Fishster, it shall be done.

*goes off to watch more daytime TV*

A cabbage patch doll.

I just watched the most surprisingly entertaining show on Ch4.... "What's in a Word?" I guess it was called, because it kept putting that up on a screen. A guy was wandering around a church, telling us what everyday words/phrases originated from church in the olden days.... and then he had this woman as a sidekick who kept trying to visually demonstrate what he was talking about, and he'd just ignore her or put her down. It was so bizarre!! I loved it All these auction shows get on my nerves though... if only because one you start watching, it's nigh on impossible to turn off without watching through to the end to see if they make enough money to go on holiday to Devon after all. Ahh... student life...!!

Piss off, it's not MY fault that the UK bodged up the best parts of Deal. I'm just informing you of worldwide Deal or No Deal rules as much as I can.

The whole 'phone call from the banker' thing pisses me off royally. I hate it with a passion. That's not in the version I'm used to... and it's SO much better without it. And yes, they do like to make it seem like it's more than pure luck and chance. Pffft. It's such a silly show. But I can never stop watching it once I start. My mate won $1600 on it in Oz.... he got an offer of £15,000, but opened another box and lost out. (In the Aussie version you open 3 boxes at a time at first... then it goes down to only 2 boxes... and you end up only opening 1 box at a time... which I think makes people take more of a chance... if they've only got one big number but a few smaller ones, and they've only got one box to open.... their odds of knocking out the big 'un are only, say 1 in 5, so they might go for it....)

We've got one in the kitchen here at uni.... one of t'other girls brought it. I've not used it. I make toasties in the toastie maker. And no, I've not heard of Rumble in the Jungle. I have extremely little boxing knowledge.

He called all his sons George too. Apparently... "I called them all George because I was worried that when I was older I might suffer from memory loss. I would have called my five girls George, too, but my wife said she thought that was overkill. When one of them is naughty, I shout 'George!' and that one knows who I mean. The only time it is awkward for me is when a teacher calls up and say we have a problem with George, and I have to ask them which one." Oh well, it made me giggle. As if you'd actually do that!! In other cooking appliance related news.... "FOREMAN GETS GRILLED - 10/01/05 Former heavyweight boxer George Foreman, who has reached popularity again with his range of cooking appliances, was held by security for 4 hours at the Miami International Airport today. Security would not allow Foreman, who had been doing promotion in Japan, back into the country as he could not provide the fingerprints required by federal law for entry. An accident over 15 years ago while using drain cleaner resulted in chemical burns to both his hands, and the loss of most of his fingerprints. A spokesperson for the MIA, Terry Noble, said "It has been an unfortunate misunderstanding and the airport sincerely apologises to Mr Foreman." He also stated that a review of the procedures at the airport had been launched to prevent the situation arising again. " And hence ends all my knowledge on the man. Have a nice day.

Nice

I could get the whole Joinee community to send him stuff (chocolates, jaffa cakes, hobnobs or the like, most probably, or just cards telling him he's great) if you think he'd like? It's what we're for Oh, and, nice, but this would be uber cool...

I especially like how he's being attacked by miniature men throwing normal-sized chairs.
