India: Part I
# 24 May 2008 19:18
So, first impressions of India after the 8hr flight, plus at least an extra hour of flying around in the stack waiting for landing permission at Mumbai, and another 20 mins sat on the ground waiting for a space for the plane to pull up and let us off:
Mumbai airport is basically a dump. My initial reaction was that they haven't finished building it, and then as I went inside I thought maybe we'd stopped at some disused terminal as the building was grotty and the walls were plain untidied concrete with a ceiling that looked like it was supposed to have suspended ceiling tiles, but instead had electrical cables hanging down from it.
Security coming into the country seemed almost non-existant: A quick look at my passport, then claimed my baggage and that was me free to roam India. lol
Anyways, so I get outside and as my dad had said their driver, Sheike (sp. to be corrected later, lol), was there to pick me up, holding an A4 sign with BEARD written on it. Fair enough. Then I had to push my way past (the words 'excuse me' did nothing) to reach him then came the 3 hr drive from Mumbai to Pune.
What an experience. At first I had thought "oh they drive on the left like us", but now I know better: Sure they drive on the left; but not like us. lol. Driving in India is dangerous, IMO. I felt like I was risking my life--not that the driver was bad, just that nobody seems to have any road-sense.
In most places there were no road markings or pavements at the side of the road. People drive wherever they want, and people walk around the edges of the road and cross without looking all the time. Other road users are an equally hazardous thing too; with cars weaving in and out of eachother, constantly beeping their horns to get past, say thanks, or just plain say 'hello', it seems. Traffic lights do not seem to mean anything either as they appear to be mostly ignored. Pedestrian crossing might aswell not exist.
I can't adequately describe the roads in words; it is something you have to see for yourself to believe.
There is also a randomly large amount of wild dogs roaming the streets, but they don't bother you at all. Less can be said of the children begging in the streets downtown, who will hound you until you enter a shop and wait til they pick on someone else to make your escape.
Other than that it's nice to be with my family again, but I am missing David terribly. So that's abit of a double-edged sword, really. :(
Jenn's birthday today... 18, woo! Got to sleep first though, so I'm not entirely sure what we are doing tomorrow, although I think we will go to the local bar, which should be interesting...
At some point I need to check out the local McDonald's which doesn't serve meat other than chicken, apparently. Also there is a pizza place nearby that apparently does a Hawaiian pizza, but fails to mention that there is no ham on it....so it's a ham & pineapple pizza without the ham, basically. Oh and no tomato sauce on the base either... Crazyness. Indian's obviously haven't got the hang of pizza yet. lol
We had Chinese today, which was nothing special. I wouldn't be surprised if it was wild dog meat instead of chicken though... Hmm... lol
Anyways, hope you are all missing me ;)
Laters!

OMG: It's a blog post!
# 22 May 2008 23:24
Yeah, so I'm currently at Birmingham Airport... which sucks.
It's like half midnight and the whole place is closed... Not really sure what to do lol.
I want a drink but the Costa Coffee that seems to be open has nobody there to serve anyone; which is great. and stupid me forgot to bring any change for the vending machines... yay!
Also, airport internet is REALLY expensive! :(
Anyways what else can I say seeing as I have 20 minutes left and I'm rediculously bored already and my flight isn't for another 6 hrs...
Oooh yeah, my new job!!!
Finally managed to leave McDs after 8 years, thankfully before I lost my marbles completely... lol
I'd seen "Internet Moderator" advertised on Fish4jobs and decided to apply for it... cos--let's face it--what do I do in my spare time anyways?
So I applied and they were impressed and I got the job!
I am enjoying it too which is always a bonus. I do miss some of my friends from my old job though, but still managing to get the occasional drunken night out with them... and many of those with Duane lol.
Went to see Iron Man the other week... it was pretty good. Will look awesome on Blu-Ray lol. Talking of Blu-Ray I just bought the Sweeney Todd... Typically it's due to arrive tommorrow while I'm in India... Oh well...
Ooh and sneaky mister David booked a hotel in Earl's Court last weekend and took me to see Avenue Q! It was pretty good....very funny, lol. So now my ban on sneakiness is lifted so I must thing of something...
Although cos of this trip to India I won't get to see him again until his birthday on 8th June... will have to make it extra special! ;)
Oh yeah, that thing about Costa Coffee reminded me... I've started on coffee again, but hopefully I'll be able to keep it in moderation. I haven't been having ANY hot drinks at home recently, so it's just work that must be a bad influence. :P
Anyways, I'm running out of things to say... so... seeyas!
'til next time (whenever that may be--I'm not doing too well on this once a month thing, lol).
Take care,
luff yhooz!

Happy New Year 2008!
# 04 January 2008 16:11
So, I kinda forgot to do me usual summary of last year post.
2007 went pretty fast... lets have a mini summary right now...
Started off abit rubbishy, and the first half was littered with Hollyoaks-style boy problems, hehe.
In May I went to Los Angeles for Star Wars Celebration IV... There were supposed to be a bunch of us meeting up but in the end it was just Ana and I, lol, oh well we had mucho fun driving around to random restaurants and forgetting to take return directions! hehe
In June one day I got bored and on a spur-of-the-moment decision I decided to drive down to Enfield in London to meet a lovely guy I had been talking to online for a month or so... Best decision I ever made! Six months later and we are still together and wouldn't want to be with anyone else. We are still separated by distance but we do our best to see eachother as much as we can. It's difficult sometimes - but who ever said love was easy? We got to spend New Years together... Yay! :D
I've also had a couple of chances for jobs during this year but am somehow still at McDonald's... oh, yay. lol
And New Years Day I had an argument with a bush alongside the Warwick Bypass just after taking David home... Whoops! So missed a DOUBLE-PAY day at work and had to spend £50 on getting my car fixed... all because I SNEEZED! I mean, honestly... How on earth.... *sigh* lol oh well all is good now.
So then, goals for this year:
1. Get new job. (or win lottery, lol)
2. Move out.
3. New car.
4. Spend lots of time with David
5. Post on my blog at least once a month.
I have a special couple for work while I'm still there too:
1. Be a bastard - no more mister nice Beard! :P
2. Re-organise stockroom (whether people like it or not)
hehe
so thats it in brief.
Hope veryone had a good Xmas and a happy new year!
Take care!
Andy

Alton Towers!
# 30 October 2007 23:48
Hey, long time no blog, eh?
What's new then... since... April? Wow. lol
In no particular order:
1. Actually made a move on sorting my room out... have a nice big slidey-door wardrobe now!
2. New awesomeish computer!
3. couple of job applications been done... had an interview for Soho Coffee in Brum, didn't get that... currently waiting to hear from a guy starting a Subway franchise in Stourport (where HJ Beard's was, so hopefully thats a good omen).
4. Last but definitely not least: David!!! Yay! :D
I met David on MySpace (surprise, surprise) back in May, and we started talking and got to know eachother abit and then I randomly decided to drive down to Enfield (London) to meet him, and from then on there was just no going back. Stuck with eachother now, hehe just over four months now. :D
Anyways, the purpose of this blog...
Somehow managed to ask mum to let David stop over... of course, she doesn't know how close we are, lol but yeah... and then we went for a couple drinks Monday night. wasn't really terribly drunk (well, Duane was), and then we came home and watched some Scrubs, yay!
then this morning (Tues/30th) we went to Alton Towers... or at least we should have gone in the morning... but one thing led to another and we went abit later, lol. :P
It was really quiet, and we managed to do everything we wanted within about 4 hours, including a lunch break lol. And David finally showed me his skills on the dance arcade game thingy - the show off :P
then cos the park was open late, we got to ride things in the dark, woo!
Rode Nemesis in the dark on the front row: that was pretty awesome, although the Runaway Mine Train was pretty fun too lol, the guy on the controls kept sending us round, making us sing such hits as YMCA and Row Row Row Your Boat... hehe. Spinball Whizzer was good fun too lol. We didn't go on the Flume, cos last time we got drenched on the first (little tiny) drop, so we figured that we'd be covered by that previous soaking. lol
All in all a really nice day. :D
Laters (don't hold your breath though)

# 25 February 2007 09:52
Yesterday was reallllly random, went into town and met Duane... Walked around for a bit then we say Jenn and Daz and Paye in the cafe in the square place... Roland Hill centre or whatever it is. so we went to join them (after a browse around Fopp). Jenn and Paye were crazy... Turned out Daz had a free house, so we all decided to go round his. lol
First though we dropped Paye home then went to play with Duane's Wii, then me Daz and Jenn came home for a bit, then went to Daz's.
Me and Duane headed off to Tesco's for boooze. Yay! And had a fun night of watching/playing Yu-Gi-Oh and other random stuffs.
Then we stayed the night, lol just got back and I'm about to go to MFI and places with mum... shopping for my room YAY!
Then drunkeness tonight again :S lol
Yay!

Two Thousand and Six (plus one)
# 31 December 2006 11:46
Well 2006 has been a strange year, a bit of the old but lots of the new. It's been pretty good overall, which has got to be a first... I mean the last few years before now have been pretty shitty to be fair. 2006 has been the first year that I have been comfortable with myself for a long time, and I've actually made a few accomplishments and new friends that I plan to keep.
Lets see what happened this year?
Hmm, in January I had my SCARY First Aid Course at Kidderminster College with Sam, as part of my promotion to Shift Manager at McDonald's. That was a nerve-wracking experience, but wasn't so bad and definitely can?t have been bad for my confidence.
February saw me actually go get my eyes tested and get some glasses, while March saw talk of the family moving to India, and a certain troublemaker who shall remain nameless finally quit at McDs - much to my joy. Lol
April brought my Shift Management Course at the Hamburger University in London, with Sam. Much fun was had by us down there and on the Tube. Was quite an experience and although I thought it would be scary it actually wasn't.
May was the month I started cutting down my coffee, and me and John broke up. I also had the start of my nightmare closes at work, with the Bitch Brigade out in force on my early ones to make my life hell, lol. And then there was the open that sent my on a mission to find a key in Anna's house and get back home for about 2 hours sleep before work. Oh god, what fun that was.
Then we get June, and the dreaded 06/06/06... Look up the blog post if you want, but it's where the catchphrase "it could only happen on an Andy Beard close" came from. I also got pissed off when my phone died after I got it slightly wet. And let's not forget that I came out to my mates at work, which caused less trouble than I thought it would? So I actually spent a lot of time worrying about nothing? Hmm, I can see a pattern emerging here lol.
In July I was feeling a bit down, cos my birthday plans were all turning from crap to crappier? Then I got together with my first proper boyfriend, Ashley, which totally changed the outlook I had on the year and lifted me out of my little rut and gave me another confidence boost.
August and September were actually pretty good, as I was seeing Ash, but it got crappy at the end with what was undoubtedly my worst week EVER, where everything I had planned to do on my week off went completely wrong and lasted until the beginning of October when Ash broke up with me. So that little crappiness overload dropped me back down into that hole again, but my mates helped me up out of it. Yay for them!
Also in October I started getting more into Numerology and stuff like that - it's interesting, I think, lol - and had a few drunken nights, experienced general crappy feelings on and off throughout the month and was made Co-Forum Manager at JPLegacy.org (the web's largest Jurassic Park information resource - yes, I'm a geek, so the fuck what? lol).
And on to November... Hmm, was a tough month with things going on in regards to work, friends, and guys, where I didn't know what was going on and stuff, but I got through it in the end. Think I've talked about some of the events enough so I don't see need to continue further about it.
Lastly, December comes along, and to be honest, it seems to have been the best month of this year. I've done things I thought I'd never do, and things I rarely do, and apart from the ever-present crappyness at work things went pretty good.
Hehe, so that was my year in brief. I've met a few new people who have affected me greatly in this year. Strangely I got to know them all through MySpace.com lol
Firstly there is Andy, who used to live in Stourport but moved to Brum, to go to the College of Cakes. Almost had a thing going on with him towards the end of the year but that didn't work out because of distance, and other things. But he's been a good online friend throughout the year, although I actually never managed to meet up with him.
Then I met Ashley in Game in Kidderminster, and later on MySpace too. We got talking and eventually started seeing eachother, and for the first time I was actually in a relationship with someone I could actually be with, hold, and was truly happy with. Things didn't work out, however, but we're still friends though so that's all good.
The third good friend of this year is Anthony from Redditch. He has been a really good friend and helped me out a lot despite the fact that we only ever spoke online for most of the year, dunno what I would have done without his advice really. Also he led me to...
...the last but definitely not least, Jon (aka Billy), who is an amazing guy who I really love spending time with and hope to spend lots of time with in the new year. He has become such a good friend in such a short space of time
So, yeah, 2006 certainly has had its ups and downs, but I've pulled through it and think I actually have become a stronger person for it. I've changed a bit too; personality-wise I'm still the same old annoying Andy B, lol. But I seem to have more confidence than I did at the start... Basically because the events of the year have required me to build some up.
Now as for 2007, I plan on finally getting away from McDonald?s. Have grown so fed up of the place now it's unbelievable... Still the same old shite as ever, being under-appreciated and underpaid as ever, so the time has come.
Also I plan on moving out of my parents' house, although this will prolly depend on me getting a new job first so I can afford it. Lol
Don?t plan on any new relationships, I'll just wait and see if anyone comes along. Just looking for new friends and such for now. If I met the right person I'm sure I could make an exception though.
Want to go out with my friends more too, don't seem to do that enough despite having good times.
Soundtrack of the year would definitely be mainly made up of Snow Patrol and Death Cab for Cutie for me... heh, how depressing. Add a dash of The Boy Least Likely To, and My Chemical Romance ;)
Hope everyone has a great night tonight, and hope 2007 gets off to a great start for you all!
Take care,
Andy

drunken fun
# 03 November 2006 14:28
Haha yesss, drunken fun indeed. Was a good night.
Had to catch the bus into Kidder so I could drink, Duane was moaning cos he said I'd be late and miss the bus, but I insisted I wouldn't.
Of course... I ended up having to run down High Street because the bus was already there... but I didn't miss it at least!
twas Mister Daz Deeley driving so we had a nice old chat on the way.
Matty B was meeting us in town, but we got their early so we went to Yates's... but Duane doesn't have any ID so they wouldnt serve us, lol.
So we went to the Penny Black, had one drink, then got thrown out cos they didn't have ID. lol but I got my money back at least! XD
So then we went to the Red Man for a couple of drunks. Duane put some music on, and I chose a Panic! track but he put in the wrong number, the bastard. lol
After a couple there we went to maccies on Weaver's Wharf for some employee discount food. hehe
And we spent a few minutes drunkenly asking who was working next wednesday cos i'm doing the close down there.
THEN we had the scary walk along the canal to the Watermill.
We were walking along, and sure it was dark, but we could see along the canal alright. and then all of a sudden there was this guy about 10ft in front of us... and NONE of us had seen him coming towards us so we all crapped ourselves basically.
He asked us if we'd seen any milk... so we were like... wtf, no. lol and ran away.
Watermill was funny too. See the video ;)

Then when I got home I had a good old chat with a certain Mr Andy! :D

10 Statements
# 14 October 2006 02:24
Write 10 statements for different people.
Don't say who each one is intended for.
(gotta love copy and paste from Word. Sorry about the mess)
1. You are a good person, and you need to stop being so hard on yourself. I'm still your friend if you want me to be, but you have to realise that it's not going to be more than that. I know that may be hard for you to hear, and I honestly don't want to hurt you, but it's just not going to happen.
--> -->2. You are an amazing girl. For someone I only know from online and a few telephone calls we have been through a lot together. You're always there to help me when I need it and I'm eternally grateful for that. I definitely owe you big time.
--> -->3. A lot of the past five years has all been your fault. So it's a good job I've enjoyed it. You're great, and I'm glad you found someone who brings happiness into your life. It was awesome to finally meet you last year, and I hope we meet again some day.
--> -->4. I care about you so much, but at the end of the day I can't argue with anything that makes you happy. So I'm content with being just friends. You've had a bigger impact on my life than I think even I realise at the moment. Just remember that whenever you are in need I'll be there for you because my friends are the most important thing in the world to me.
--> -->5. We really need to get drunk soon.
--> -->6. It's crazy that we have known each other so long and yet don't really talk that much. Thanks for joining my new forum though. lol
--> -->7. One of these days I'll have to meet you because you're a pretty awesome guy. I should have come to your party, but oh well, I guess I'm boring!
--> -->8. Just keep that nail-gun away from me. And be on MSN more.
--> -->9. You've been a great friend to me in recent times. My greatest regret is that I didn't get to know you better sooner. And stop with the llama song, please. lol :P
--> -->10. One of these I will actually manage to go out in Brum. And probably get drunk and make a fool of myself, but it'll be all in the name of fun. So it's all good.
If you figure out which one is for whom, don't say it here.
It'll kind of defeat the object.
Take care

i need cheering up
# 11 October 2006 10:22
Why do I always get woken up by the postman needing a signature for a parcel when I've been on the close the night before?
Do they time it deliberately like that?
Can't get back to sleep, so I had to get up, and nobodies online.
Yeah, your dealing with pissed-off Andy today. Last nights close was a nightmare, and todays will prolly be the same.
Had to send one of my mates home cos they kept messing around, and one of my other mates walked out with him. So I've prolly got both of them fired. *sigh*
Had to call up some help to finish off, and I hate doing that. >.<
Working the close again tonight: Oh what fun.
I seem to be having a crappy month so far. Haven't had a proper good day since like, the beginning of the last week of September. Since then it's just been crap. One thing after another, and I'm getting pretty tired of it, to be honest.
Oh, and anyone in the UK wanting to buy a GameCube?
meh.
Random thoughts
# 07 October 2006 06:21
Hmm, my heads a bit weird from last night. Damn you Duane, getting me drunk. Again. Saw Mr Malik downtown too, crazy. lol
Oh well. Paracetamol it is, then. :P
Well, it should be too early in the morning for this thoughtfulness.
Had a weird dream, and me being me I figured out what I think it means.
Basically, sometimes you get what you want easily. Other times you may have to look for it. And occasionally, you might get it, and realise that it wasn't really what you needed afterall, but you still want to get it back.
And when you do get it back, there may be obstacles thrown in the way; little that seem minor, but when you put them all together they do create a barrier between yourself and enjoyment. Some people can get past them easily, but with me it's inevetable that breakages will occur--sometimes even the thing you try to save is the thing that breaks.
But that's life, isn't it?
Sounds prophetic and wise, eh?
In other news, Ash sorted the tickets for the Boy Least Likely To concert, but its been postponed til 23rd Jan... Doh!
Oh well, something to look forward to. Now I need something to do with my weekend. Apart from this 8-4 I am about to do.
Hmm.
Take care ppl

The Saga of Crap
# 01:11
Yess... I'm having a bad run of luck at the moment, it seems.
Was on the close, oh fun fun. First Michelle rang in sick, apparently having collapsed or something... then half way through the night Dan had some bad news and I let him go. Managed to blag Ben to stay on the close and get Kyle to stop til 12, but it was all looking a bit pear-shaped.
Then we ran out of shake mix and regular buns, and later some guy reached in through the drive thru window and robbed £80 out of the till while nobody was there. Great. Just HAPPENs to always be my shift when things go to pot... -_-
And then the bloody PC wouldn't close, so I had to leave it for the morning. The close wasn't to good either, so I'll prolly get a bollocking tomorrow. *sigh*
I need a new job. Anyone? Please? :(
lol
Oh wells.
Rang a friend on my break cos I feel the need to go get drunk and talk a bit about... things. So hopefully I shall be rather merry tomorrow night. hehe
Soon I'll be inviting a few peoples to join the staff for my new site... Maybe tomorrow if I can be bothered. lol
til next time

grah @ illness
# 04 October 2006 22:03
Geez, I seem to be suffering from some kind of.. thing. lol
It's weird, i've not been able to finish my lunch for two days in a row. Dinner was alright though... Probably because by the time dinner comes around I'm starving after not having a proper lunch. And then there is the annoying headache of doooom.
Paulette gave me some paracetamol at work so all is good... I shall just throw tablets at it til it goes away. Feeling sick now, actually. Grr.
And earlier my sister announced that she'd borrowed my PS2 and taken it into her room. I'm like, erm, you what?
Thought I'd come back with the oh-so-witty "i don't walk into your room and take your TV without asking, do I?" -- to which she said that I could. >_>
Not quite the desired effect. Ash said I should go borrow her TV while she was using it to play my PS2. Kinda liked that idea... hehehe. But I didn't, because I'm not that mean.
Anything else to report? Hmm, no don't think so. Close tomorrow, how fun. -_-
You know, I might actually try to use this blog once in a while now. Just for a laugh, and cos I have nothing better to do with my time. *shifty eyes*
'til next time
take care

alright alright
# 03 October 2006 16:56
Need to stop being so depressed. Not going to get very far in life like that, am I?
So I was on a 9 til 5, funfun. Was supposed to have my Performance Review, but Ad forgot to bring it in *rolls eyes*
I was dreading Duane coming in cos I knew he would be a pain... Within 5 minutes: "Still with Ashley?" DOH. Soo then he kept bugging me all day, which was actually quite amusing by the end of the shift... as well as kinda annoying.
I'm cheered up a bit now. Got some horrible flu-like thing though... Hardly ate anything for lunch and had a headache all day, bit of paracetamol cleared that right up though when I got home.
Yeah, so I guess I discovered why having lots of good friends is better than having a couple of best friends, so I must thank all the peoples who helped me out the last couple days (in no particular order):
Allan, Karla, Mandi, Pod, Prin, Matt, Ty, Chris, Kim, Duane, Anna, Jess, David, Andy, Du, JM, Vice, and anyone I may have forgotten.
And that's how many people it takes to pull me out when I let myself fall into a hole. Kidding. ;)
But most of all, I want to thank Ashley, for being great. :)
We're still friends and that's what matters.
So... Chin up, and face the world, I guess.
Take care guys

worst fucking week ever
# 02 October 2006 04:46
i've had the worst fucking week in my history.
monday and tuesday were alright, but i hadn't planned anything.
Wednesday i went to help my boyfriend, Ashley, clear some boxes and stuff from his new room after his move. I was supposed to be drinking with friends from work in the evening, but they all decided to go out in the afternoonwhen i was busy...
actually.. to be honest i can't even be fucking bothered to type this out agaian. but yeah it sucks. and there is something else which has me close to tears right now, and i fucking hate it. i'll prolly blog about it later, but hopefully not...
can't sleep. drinking coffee... at nearly 6am. yay. oh fun.
yeah, i suck.
*sulk*
# 26 August 2006 21:03
Meh, feeling abit bleh at the moment.
Was really tired when I woke up this morning, and sorta fell asleep again, when I finally got up at 11:45 I struggled to stay awake til about 12:30 when I had to get ready for work, cos I was on a rather odd 1 til 9 today for some reason.
So, I go to work tired. And with me that's never good cos if I start off badly then it just gets worse. Anywhoo... I'm wondering how I'm going to get up for my 9 til 5 tomorrow if I was too knackered to get up for a 1 til 9, and Ad asks me if I can come in and do an 8 til 4 instead... and I AGREE like an eejit.
So yeah after dealing with tiredness and silly staff that don't like listening and stuff I eventually become moody and bitchy and all that, so it's all been funfun today. lol
And Duane was trying to get me to go to some silly little friggin church group with him. I mean, WHAT THE FUCK!? I went to church every week for the first 18 years of my life, so i think i've had ebnough of it, thank-you. I have no problem with people who go to church, or who love Jesus or whatever, AS LONG AS THEY LEAVE ME OUT OF IT.
It's all very well saying I'll go to hell for not believing in a god, but it's not going to affect me much if I don't believe that hell exists. Well, technically Hell is a town in Norway. Which is quite funny cos Norway is snowy so Hell is forzen over. hehe.
Anyways.
Home now, still tired. Had a headache all day and I think I had the last two paracetamol this morning... But I'll have to go hunting for soem laters.
Ashley is at a wedding reception tonight so I can't talk to him. Tempted to text him, but I don't want to be annoying or anything. :/
Dunno what time he'll be back either, so prolly won't get to talk to him til tomorrow.
At least after tomorrow I have two days off. Not working the bank holiday, surprise surprise. Never get to work bank holidays. *pout* All I want is the double pay. lol
Shall prolly go into town or something. Being tempted to buy a Nintendo DS, even though I know I have no money so I might just leave it a couple of months til I have paid off my credit card again. >.<
By which time I'll prolly have to use it for the PS3 I preordered at Gamestation. Hmm. Dunno how I'm going to afford to go to Los Angeles next year either. Craziness. It's in May, so that's like... 8 months away, and they still haven't announced anything about hotels yet. Or entrance passes actually, either. Maybe I should renew my Hyperspace membership so I can get the cool fanclub extras that I won't bother with like at Celebration III, lol.
Mmm... Eating some Oreos now. Grinnall's in town have started selling boxes of 16 for the grand sum of 99 pennies. So all is good on the biscuity side of things. Although I wonder how they can put "The World's No 1 Buscuit!" on the box... Cos if they were indeed the world's #1 then surely they wouldn't be so goddamn hard to find?
Seriously, Grinnall's is the only shop that sells them in a town of what... 25,000?
Not sure where sells them in Kidder, although I have heard one of the supermarkets does.
Yeah, I'm bored and rambling now, so when that happens it's best if I shut the hell up.
Take care,
Andy

PS: Geez, and now the bloody thing won't post... Keeps telling me there is no space left on the server. ERM! I think there is. Grrr.

Coffee Update
# 23 August 2006 00:59
So, yesterday... Well, it was the day before now... But anyways. On Monday Dan tempted me with a Cappuccino, and I decided to drink it, because I can. :P
So yeah, I was figuring that I have had no coffee for about 3 months, so surely I am no longer addicted to it, and also, I never actually said I would cut it out completely anyways.
But yeah, he did it again today, and I drank it BUT ONLY to proove that I'm not addicted to it.
It seems quite odd logic really, but the only way to proove that I don't need coffee is to drink it a couple times and then see if I can last without it. Sooo, yeah. :P
Ooh, Wednesday now isn't it? Seeing Ashley tonight, yay! <3
Take care pplz

I hate it when plans change!
Oooh well, never mind.
Now what shall I do with this weekend off?
Suggestions anyone?

I don't know what to do...
Part of me wants to forgive him, and apologise for being such an arse, yet I'm still mad at him, and sent a not-to-pilote reply to an email...
I wish I could make the right choice, instead of constantly screwing everything up.
And on to other news... I'm still single, having not yet plucked up the courage to ask that girl out... I dunno whether it would work ut anyway, she's 3 years younger than me... Plus I dunno what to say, or how to go about this... Argh... If I hadn't devoted my life to my comp perhaps I'd be with someone already...

I'm not in the best of moods right now, so it would not be a good idea for anyone to try annoying me.
Last night some of you may have been asked by me who "frog maul" was on AIM... Well I know now who it is, and I'm so pissed off at them. Any respect I had left for them has now completely evaporated.
I don't care whether I deserved it or not, and it just further enforces my opinion that nobody can be trusted. I hope you're laughing at your joke, because I'm certainly not, and don't ever come near GB again.
