Strong feet!

Due to the aforementioned internet issues at the flat, I’m using a friends log in details in the university library to go online (which is majorly annoying due to whichever bastard version of IE they use being roughly as stable as building the Transporter bridge on a foundation of incorrectly set jelly). So, as I’m not allowed to smoke in here I head to the union. As it’s fricking freezing outside.

I find a seat, perch on it, light up and decide “Hmmm, this really is not that comfortable.” Placing my feet on a bar on the chair, as I have done countless times, I put my weight on it and CRACK!

The sodding bar falls off.

After my smoke i picked it up and headed to the bar to report it. Unfortunately, it was one of the bar managers I spoke to. But I know him so we had a bit of a laugh about it and the took the chair away to be fixed.

Forgot to mention yesterday but I finally got my hands on Love by the Beatles. It’s the one they did for a Cirque de Soliel show and it’s amazing. What they’ve done is, rather than using just the songs that you know and love, George Martin and his son Giles ripped the songs apart into their respective tracks and completely remixed the lot. So you’ll be listening to one song and suddenly hear bits from a completely different song. The best example of this is Strawberry Fields Forever. Yoko gave them a copy of the original demo and what they’ve done is crafted the song so that it progresses from this version (with a change in the opening line) through to the finished piece. So, that album is my current musical obsession.

Actually, sod it. Who want’s a mix CD? If you do, leave me a note. Don’t forget to mention if you have and special requests (like if you know I like a band and you don’t or even if you are curious about a particular band) and I’ll make it.

And now I must go. I need more juice.
