getting my 3rd day of kite surfing lessons on sunday - and the wind (fingers crossed and touch wood!) is actually not looking too bad for then at the moment!

was going to go surfing on monday (haven`t been in ages) - finally got myself a board sorted out last week - can`t wait to try it out but the surf is not loking good :cry:

saturday will be spent rebuilding my engine for my van.

HAHA!!! man flu? hahaha. I had to take it easy lastnight seeing as how I was bartending....I can only drink so much when i am doing that. I have a very productive sounding day ahead of me sitting on a help desk. On fridays we tend to get about 2 calls all day....so I am sitting here, on a firewalled computer so I cant do alot on the net, killing time until lunch rolls along, then same same for the afternoon.

I dont know how you do it - Im strictly (well, fairly strictly) a one night at a time person these days. If Ive done the night before, I really dont fancy starting again for a couple of days. :spew:

having an alkie boss is a good start, working on the first floor above a bar doesnt help either.

Oh and every pub in london being on the way home will do it too.

I tend to have alot of time off in between (i broke myself last summer and took 6 months off)

Hmmm it's a tricky one! Although i am of course on my deathbed I'll battle through it (milk it for another day) and by my reckoning i'll be back on track in time for some beers tomorrow night ! :wink:

Yeah, I was shocked (and I didnt think I shocked easily) the first time I went to a place in soho on a friday evening :shock:
Shock rapidly became irritation (other people doing coke is sooooo tedious) and a desire to be somewhere else :roll:

Just about to start work. Got 4 nights starting tonight. Surf is flat but I hope it rains cos thats about the only thing that keeps piss heads off the streets after the clubs shut. Well at least it won't be a full moon - that really sucks, ALL the freaks come out on a full moon!
