Zoomers

Sunday, August 31st, 2008

So aye, my holiday to Canada… off.

Fuck.

What makes matters worse is because I paid by Debit card it doesn’t even look as though I’m going to get my money back. I’ll have to visit my bank this week and get it sorted out. Absolutely gutted. I’ve been in dire need of a holiday for a good while, for those of you who have had to suffer this Glaswegian ’summer’ you’ll know what I’m talking about, a depressing state of affairs. I’ve been looking forward to this for months and to have it stripped away from me exactly a week before I was meant to head out is seriously shite. I’ve had it.

Zoom airlines, John Boyle, away and fist yourself.

Deadmau5

Friday, August 22nd, 2008

Tonight I will be making my way through to the Edinburgh Festival to see Deadmau5 (http://www.deadmau5.com). I’ve been a big fan of his since I first heard his song ‘Not Exactly’ on a mash up mix at the beginning of this year.

Really looking forward to it, going to take a camera to document the evening’s events.

Diesel Soars to £2.43 a Litre

Apparently.

I went to a Shell garage last week to top up my car to the sum of £28.43 paying what is currently quite a reasonable £1.21.9 a litre. Oh no. Shell went ahead and charged me twice, so instead of paying £28.43, I ended being debited twice for a total sum of £56.86, the equivalent to £2.43 a litre.

£9bn profit for half a year? Nae wonder.

I’ve hit triple figures on the ol’ vinyl collection, I have 100 in my possession right now and I’m awaiting the delivery of 2 rare numbers from ebay any day now!
