Apparently. It's called Tinder and my entire class have been using it pretty much non-stop. As far as I can tell it's a "hot or not" thing that pulls up your photos from face book and people hav...


Some days I just want to shake my head in despair. My cousin is coming up over the weekend. This, as some of you who have read back through my other entries will know, is a plan that has been se...

New bar set

Ok, so I've been doing the whole healthy living thing for about two months now. I'll admit to falling off the wagon once and also to having a break over my birthday (got to have one day off) and ...

House hunting

I find this process galling. There's nothing exciting about it - the excitement begins once you've got yourself ready to move. House hunting is just a pain in the neck and the promise of a LOT of...

So here we are again...

It's always such a pleasure. Is, of course, the credits song for Portal 2. It has nothing to do with this entry except the fact it iterates my feeling of having arrived back at somewhere. The s...



Occasionally I find these on my hard drive. Pieces of work I started and never finished. It's kind of my thing. The master of the stories I'll never write. This one is especially weird. As I reca...


This story is about Hayley. I don't know Hayley except through what my Mum told me last night. I believe I met Hayley a couple of times. Hayley used to be a friend of my sister. When they were y...

30 days? Please

So I saw this and it looks interesting enough but it's going to be some very short entries so I thought I'd just treat it as a questionnaire and do it all in one shot. It's a good use of a lunc...

New flat hunt continues

I hate looking for new places to live. I find the process incredibly galling because it's always about the "have nots". At this point in my life I never thought I'd be living with my brother. I ...

Woodhorn

So this was my weekend. Record attendance; apparently over 2000 visitors. We were all suitably impressed. Some of the costumes there were absolutely amazing especially the Iron Man and Warmachine...

It approaches

Car is all packed and ready for the drive down to leeds. This'll be my first long haul on a motorway. Then sunday is Doctor Who time. Got myself a new suit, new coat and I'm planning on dying my...


Really busy but just writing this on a break at work to let you know I'm still alive. 1) Still alive. Check 2) Still on diet. Have been complemented 4 times on my weight loss so far. Didn't eve...

It's here!

It arrived! It's all set up. My god it is a pretty pretty pony. Now to give it a name. The Laptop is "Sexy"; the phone is "Valeyard". Any suggestions for the new beast of a gaming unit?


July 07, 2014

That's it then...

One month dry. Detox diet complete. Except it's not because this thing is working and I don't massively want to stop it. So I've agreed I'm allowed a drink this Saturday to reward myself and the...


and you've nothing better to do I can heartily recommend going to Nerg2014. It's a retro computer games convention which has been on at the Gateshead stadium over the last two days. It's 15 quid ...

Survey

I stole this survey like the merciless thief I am. Mwa hahahaha! Birthdate: August the 5th. How many siblings do you have? One older brother and one younger sister. Are you the oldest, in the ...

Interview at 11

Wish me luck! edit Interview done. Didn't go as badly as imagined.

Entry 51

Holy crap I didn't notice I was up to 50 entries in this diary already! Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you! Ok, party over. Go back to your scheduled routines, nothing more to see here...


Man, I am tired. Caffeine withdrawal is biting back like you would not believe. Still the weather is high and beautiful so you've got to keep smiling, right? So the main, news and the reason for...

Short story

So, this has been written for my local LARP game. It's going to be a bit of plot to tell people about a naughty fae who makes people greedy but I thought I'd put it here and you can make what you...


But it's my money, right? Not like I'm drinking or anything. I should be allowed to buy myself stuff. Well, on the back of my Doctor Who coat, which was awesome, I was looking around the interne...


It's friday. It's 13:25 at the time I start penning this. I'm listening to Billy Bragg, courtesy of spottily. My day so far has resolved around getting the computers in my training room up to dat...

Doing well...

So, over the weekend I went back to Penrith to see my family. This was the major challenge in the "No I'm not drinking" thing. This was not just meeting up with my parents. This was the entire fa...


Book Description

Note: This diary is a continuation of the diary I started on the 3rd of October 2001, on Opendiary. I may even get to collating the entries from my olders stuff on here at some point. It’s also still under construction so it may be a little rough around the edges at first.

Disclaimer: The contents of this diary do not reflect the opinions or thoughts of anyone really, including the author. He generally just writes whatever comes to mind.

It’s a gift.

On the other hand, some of the things he writes he spends far too long reviewing and trying to make it work. This is usually poetry. Some of it’s ok, if you like the sort of thing.

In addition, if you happen to live in Tyne and Wear, and are interested in Live Action Roleplay check out this site. I made it so you know it’s gonna be good. Eventually.

Finally, if you take offence at any of the content of this diary, we will come round your house and murder an adorable kitten in front of you. So please don’t take offence. We can’t afford the kittens.
