Secret Santa? (Coates?)

pinkhandbag IV — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 21:11:43 GMT

Usually I hate mentioning Christmas this early but I paid a visit to the newly reopened seasonal Hawkins Bazar today and got over-excited looking at Marble Run, Snoopy Snow Cones, Diablos, Jelly Bath, tiny instruments and Remote Control Tarantulas.

Anyway, it got me considering Secret Santa, as they have some amazing present potential in there. If Coates wants to relinquish his Santa hat, as he isn't around much, then I'd quite happily organise it. Apparently it's good for me to do nice ...

Best Telly Channel Ever

Jimi A — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 21:52:36 GMT

So there is another good telly channel apart from BBC2, BBC4 and Channel 4. Current_ I just found it by accident whilst skipping channels. I've just watched some brilliant documentaries, programmes about how to make viral videos and some hilarious yet still serious reviews of gadgets and birth control adverts in the states. Why did no-one tell me about it before?

Why did Charlotte leave the bang?

Please do not hate me if this is an old and dead topic.

I just found out she left, I have been an Ash fan since i heard Free All Angels but only recently seemed to become obsessed with the group, I blame Wheelers hairy chest, so sexy, anyway off topic, I read on Wiki Charlotte was asked to leave the band, anyone know why please?

Cheers, KKBB.

I have quite often been told I am like Rik from The Young Ones. And people were on about it last week and so it prompted me to add to my FB this picture:

stating that I am NOT Rik.

Problem is, whenever I watch The Young Ones I do squirm a little as I can sometimes see myself a bit too much of myself in some of Rik's lines. And then, just as I added that pic as my MSN pics I noticed a certain picture and couldn't help but laugh.

So that prompted me to ask, anyone ...

Tonight I watched:

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang - Fast becoming a cult classic. I never tire of it. Full of razor-sharp dialogue.

Undercover Brother - An amusing African-American Austin Powers. Did you dig my use of alliteration there?

Raiders of the Lost Ark - As if I need to say anything. I'm getting pumped for Indy IV. No way am I watching Temple of Doom though.

Ben — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 09:37:11 GMT

It's good to know one's weaknesses. I'll start:

Checking emails

Responding to texts

RSVPing for parties

Responding to anything in general

Getting out of bed in the morning (although I get better at this in spring/summer as the weather improves)

Turning up on time to anything that isn't work (ie. parties and such)

I'm sure there are more, but this will do for a start.

Sequel to Donnie Darko, his little brat of a sister and her mate go on a road trip and start having visions. No-one from the original film apart from the actress who played Samantha connected with it. Might wait for the DVD of this one, if Richard Kelly was connected then I'd probably make the effort to see it in the cinema. What does everyone else think?

Teenager finds bat asleep in bra

A teenager who thought movement in her underwear was caused by her vibrating mobile phone found a bat curled up asleep in her bra.

Abbie Hawkins, 19, of Norwich, had been wearing the bra for five hours when she plucked up the courage to investigate.

When she did, she found a baby bat in padding in her 34FF bra. The hotel receptionist said she was shocked but felt bad for removing the "cuddly" ...

Well this is a bit shameful to admit but I need help with my Lil Green Patch on facebook. Those of you who know me need to send me people, not plants. I'm slightly OCD about the arrangement of it and I'm now rows deep in extra plants. I need Lil people, big people! Preferably ones from Hot Shot and higher. Any one who knows anything about gardening or forestry knows you need as much biodiversity as possible to boost the ecological health of the ecosystem. My Lil Green patch is in desperate need ...

I have played so much Ash over the last few weeks that she now sings lovely renditions of Oh Yeah, Shining Light and Lost in You. She also pulls some great moves at the beginning of Kung Foo and then shouts 'Kick Arse!'

I got up insanely early to watch this thing, which turned out to be the most bizarre debate I've ever seen.

Palin quickly decided that she wasn't going to bow down to the "main stream media" and their "filters", so instead of answering the questions she just gulped up some prepared talking points about a topic of her own chosing.

Bread - Italian herb and cheese

Filling - veggie patty

Salad - green pepper, sweetcorn and jalapenos

Sauce - hot chilli

Will this be too much of a good thing?

House: If you'd ever tried it, you would know.

The new one's on now here and Wilson's gone, so of course House thinks every patient has cancer

Well here is the 2nd of many new bootlegs for The Ash Files. This time it really is a new addition! It's Ash live in the U.S. at the 9:30 Club in Washington D.C. on November 24, 2002. This was when they supported Saves The Day on a U.S. tour. The highlights of this one for me is the interesting performance of Shark and the lack of several popular singles they usually would play. More (and better) bootlegs to come!
