Voodoo in my ears.

by Old-Nick @ 2007-10-05 - 15:08:22

well, Stevie Ray Vaughn is playin Voodoo Child on my mp3 player, nothing is happening here at Casa del soon to be jobless, and another cup of black coffee is going the way of all the rest today.

Dull post this eh?

So why am I typing if I have nothing to say. Well about a year ago when the work here was a bit scarce but our future looked good, I would sit and type any old bollocks into the white box and post it. just for something to do.

Then I got this thing about if I can only blog a couple of times a day it had better be good.

Then I thought "If you have nothing to say - say nothing" and I would read other peoples blogs and comment where I could but not put anything up unless I was inspired.

Looks like I have now gone full circle back to knocking out whatever shite pops up into the void in my head.

Great news eh folks!

I'll get me coat.

:roll:

Drink in the day

by Old-Nick @ 2007-10-05 - 14:06:07

As I have mentioned with dull and monotonous regularity, I used to work till recently in an office near Soho.

When 24hr drinking became possible by law, I was amazed that none of the venues in that area seemed to be taking up this offer. So when we moved our office here to the dullness of Old Street I forgot all about it.

Till this morning that is.

There is a vile modern pub on the corner of Old Street and Bunhill Row that now serves booze from at least 09.45 in the morning.

Because that is when I went over to the supermarket to buy some ciggies ans saw a group of "old boys" sitting outside with a pint in front of each of them.

This is not exactly a Bohemian area, and yet it is the first place that I have seen (or at least noticed) the new licensing laws in opperation. No sign of it being taken up in Soho when I was there, but here it is in dull, dirty, noisey Old Street.

Maybe I was not paying attention.

:wave:

What a career move.

by Old-Nick @ 2007-10-05 - 10:28:25

Got a lift in with Mrs F in her car this morning, as there is no need to rush in anymore and enjoyed the sight of the early morning sun and the mist filled forest clearings on the way in. The radio was on as we chatted and something on the news made me listen.

Apparently a “Senator Kennedy” was having a go at George W over something or other (for being a tit probably) but it made me think.

If you were a member of the Kennedy family, would you choose to go into politics? And if you did, would you ever make a fuss about anything ever?

I mean it’s not exactly worked out well for them in the past has it!
