My IPod is broken. It's like a death in the family. Albeit a quiet one.

Same for me. Got there at 9 and wasnt sure how long they had been on for at that point but the whole thing was wrapped up by 9.45. Missed most of the end of the main set due to some ignornant barmaid who seemed to be deliberately serving everyone on either side of me. Saw the Liam lookalikey too. It wasnt actually him. Right?

I tried to change my sig and all I was getting was horrible code and stuff. Even the simple things are a struggle these days....

Brilliant! I think I could be in there! Hair but not too long? Check. No beard but some mild stubble? Check. Now all I need is to find a girl who meets my criteria. What REALLY turns me on is a girl who takes no nonsense, who knows her own mind who would even park in a Parent and Child space if it felt her. But where would I ever find a girl like that?

My nag is bald people in denial who suddenly think they are cool. Baldness is not cool. Having hair will always be the norm. You are all hairless freaks who cry yourself to sleep at night wishing you had hair. Just because there are several of you falling out the baldy closet does not make it ok.

Is it just me who felt a slight twitch in the pants while reading that?!

Fcuking workmen who let you down! Useless cnuts. I've been trying to get my boiler fixed for weeks now. They finally agree to come this afternoon so my dad gives up his afternoon to sit in the flat and wait for them. As they hadnt trapped by 4 my dad called them and the guy says "Oh, totally forgot about that job, not going to make it today" So, theyve had it. Theyre not getting my cash or ever getting in my house again. I would advise you all to do the same. Never ever use a Glasgow firm of plumbers/heating engineers called Citigas. They are in the Yellow Pages. I can recommend you never waste your time calling them. Ever.

Must be hard when they dont even tell you what it is they're looking for

Watched "Little Miss Sunshine" on DVD last weekend. Strong characterisation, some enchanting dark humour and all the usual pitfalls of a dysfunctional family on a road trip. Only the ending lets it down - you want to take your seven-year old daugher out of a beauty campaign not because it's a freak show but because you dont think she will win??! Really??! Still, 8/10 material

Rifles on Saturday, should be a good un.

Arcade Fire - Intervention. Looking forward now to seeing it sung live at T B)

Done! I'll go to Cappielow on Saturday, you go to Easter Road on Sunday! B)

Join the club, lady! Decided I dont want a new job, just not a job at all...

Lifted up by a crane I think... Seriously, do you not know? Is it just a Weegie expression?

Phoned up to activate my new credit card and got hit with 10 mins of pish banter about "Do I have card protection? Do I have life cover? Do I have critical illness cover? Well, for just 18 pounds a year...." Dont think she appreciated my answer of "cos I like to live on the wild side" when asked why I didnt want any of their cover

Noticed a big scratch on my driver's door today as well However, given my car is silver and I dont really care about cars it could, admittedly, have been there for a few months

I hope so too. Unless you were hiding in my cupboard last night.... I dont get the "man flu" thing. Is it saying men are wusses or that we have worse colds than women??

Buy a car.

My cold has returned. And I sneezed so hard earlier I've done my back in. I'm falling apart

Might toddle along, sounds good. Where is it?

Currently reading "My Father and Other Working Class Football Heroes" by Gary Imlach. I just rememeber him as the wee guy with the daft middle shed that used to do the reporting on the American Football and Tour de France on Ch4. Cant imagine him as half-Scottish at all. Good read so far, getting quite into it.

There was a letter in the Metro last week saying something similar, complaining about old folk who decide to go and do their shopping in rush hour despite having the whole day free. My gran (god rest her soul) used to get up at 7am every morning after she retired. She would then potter around all day doing the best part of nothing. Do old people just not like long lies?!

My girlf has just phoned to say she saw one of the neighbours from the top flat in our building as she was going out. She said "hi" and the other girl just looked right thru her and walked past without saying anything. The same thing happened to me the other day too and our other neighbours arent too friendly either. Granted this is the west end where people generally seem up themselves but even accounting for that it does seem very rude. We even invited all the neighbours round for a drink after we moved in but since then no-one has reciprocated or made much of an effort. Some mates of mine seem to become great buddies with their neighbours and even stay in touch with them once they move on but that never happens to me. Whats the opinion on here of neighbours? People to be tolerated or potential friends??

To be fair to her after the initial euphoria she is getting a bit p*ssed off too with the amount of folk interfering. She has already told her maw to butt out and is doing her very best, for the sake of diplomatic relations, to not tell my old dear the very same thing. I'm just wary of telling my old dear to ram it as: 1) My folks have offered to contribute and we aint seen the dough yet 2) Our bathroom's getting done soon and we might have to move in with them for a few days

But you're a woman! You're part of the problem! My foot is down but seems to be getting tramped on by lots of women.
