For once, I actually have a rather busy summer. Well, busy for me, anyway :p

This weekend: going to london
Weekend after: sitting glued to glasto footage on tv, and phoning random people who are there at appropriate points ;)
A couple of days after that my mate from America's coming to stay, then on the 11th we're off to move, then off to witnness on the 13th, then I sleep till the 18th, when I'm going to bristol for a 'not-a-meetup' type meetup ('tis an official forum thing).


Not sure what else I'm doing. Regular trips to london to see a certain mr radiomanic are now necessary though. As is me finding a job. Anyone fancy paying me to be a professional killer or something? :cool:

Continuing with my voluntary work and hopefully EVENTUALLY getting paid for it (although I enjoy just the work side anyway). Going to stay with Kev for a while and then going on with him to MOVE and staying with friends, then (with luck) coming back down for the London HMV gig/signing. Then... um... sod all, really. No cash for a holiday (as per usual) although I'll probably take a few trips down to Southend :) And it's my 21st birthday in August, so I'll probably... not do anything at all, as usual, actually :( ;)

IŽll have four and a half weeks off work, starting from this Thursday (hopefully.) IŽll spend one week at my friends summer cottage and one weekend at Ruisrock. :) Then there are some things I should do at home, like cleaning the windows and throwing away old clothes. And I should also do some studying.

I'll be mostly suffering from hayfever and reading the complete works of Shakespeare.

I'm going to have a great time (!)

Oh, I forgot about work. I'll be working.

ooh I dream of a long holiday, unfortunately I have a mortgage to pay and not much money :) and since my contract finally finishes in September after 6yrs of short-term renewals I'm looking for a new job, which is horrible (interviews= :eek: ). Then in October I hope to be going on holiday, hopefully a late deal to America (my mates want to go to either Las Vegas or Florida so probably one of those, as long as it's warm and sunny I don't care :) )

Up to now, July will be quite busy, Dublin, MOVE and London in the first two weeks if all goes according to plan :)

Not much else planned, probably just work (pah...) do some reading, although I am considering going to Leeds for the festival too, for the day or the full event...

Erm,

- Going to a national football tournament this saturday at Birmingham, with all my mates. Unfortunately have to go in the net for the first time in a year though as our keeper has broken his finger!

- University summer school thing at loughborugh in 2 weeks time. Stay there for a week, do a bit of a work and go to quite a few free "social outings" and enjoy a bit of time with 4 of my closest friends.

- Recording some material with Joe and scamp for our new band hopefully.

- Its my birthday in august and like amanda, i dont really have many plans for it.

- Looking into possibly building a double necked bass and electric guitar, maybe from scratch, as a challenging project to occupy me this summer.

well, i spent the last week in holland... which was nice, then i came home, went to see a musical tonight, and in an hour i'm leaving for a cruise with my family to the med (don't make me spell the rest of the word) after that, MOVE (woohoo), polyphonic spree and placebo in august, a visit from my welsh friend, a HUUUUGE party to celebrate/mourn my leaving for st petersburg (everyone is invited, it's manics themed) and then on the 15th of september i move to russia. I don't really want to go and will miss home incredibely, so expect many vodka induced messages of love to the forum in deepest darkest winter, especially when eddie izzard's in glasgow and i'm not.

and also i have to find a job. damn
