I'm so confused.

I really like the Milennium Wheel. If you go later on in the afternoon the queues won't be so big. It's just a really cool, one-off experience and you get an amazing view. From there it's really cool to walk over the Thames, past the Houses of Parliment, up past the Gov. buildings to Buckingham Palace. It's a really great walk and you're constantly going 'Oooh...there's xxx'. I thought it was really neat seeing all the people queuing to get into the public gallery at the Houses of Parliment. I also thought that Wimbledon was really cool - but you're a bit out of season for that.

Why are you in Aberdeen? I thought you lived in Glasgow?

I suppose it all depends on how clever you are, and how much work you've done in the past 3 1/2 years. I worked my ass off for about 6 weeks before my exams - by that I mean about 8-10 hours of study a day, most days, but i'd not done an awful lot prior to that because I was so busy with my dissertation. I got a high 2.1 and a 250 prize. That worked for me anyway. But seriously, I think it's different for everyone. I'm sure people did a lot less and got a 2.1 as well.

Oh my fucking god - I am so excited I might explode. Now for the tricky bit - how the hell to get time off work...

Motormark are wicked. I wish I could come to the gig.

The Chemical Brothers track is brilliant. Basement Jaxx always have amazing singles, but I find the albums really patchy.

"Boy band Busted decide to split Chart-topping band Busted have announced they are to split up. The decision comes just days after band member Charlie Simpson said he was temporarily parting company with bandmates James Bourne and Matt Willis. "It's a really sad day for all of us, but we've always said that if one member left then we'd call it a day," Willis told Busted's official website. "This has been a really difficult decision and I hope the fans will understand," added Simpson. " Taken from BBC news. Oh-well...

I think it's a cool name.

The downward spiral was supposed to be out early Dec 2004 here, but now amazon have it being released in June 2005. Which seems mental.

Thats totally bollocks. I am genuinly gutted about that. They were an absolutly fantastic live band, and i'm just glad I got to see them lots before they called it a day. I thought they were one of the few bands doing something that sounded totally unique. And they were hilarious as well. Whats the difference between a landrover and a hedgehog? I hedgehog has pricks on the outside! *boom boom* Thats really sad news.

Your avater is yucky, but original. 6/10

I would have thought that having it asap and capitalising on it being a 'current'/'hot' issue would be a better idea. Get people's attention while they are still motivated enough to do something. Also to make the most of any publicity you might get for doing it in the papers etc.

Apparently it's from the Monsoon sale last January - or so the girl told me when I took it back.

I got: a voucher for the Nick Nairn cook school a digital radio some lovely little pink and yellow pans a Duallit toaster some pictures of Iain.....from Iain a Mr Goodbar a handheld steam cleaner.....great... some champagne lots of choccies lots of barefoot dr and 'fresh' body goodies a rather fetching snowflake jumper and lots of money and vouchers with which I have bought the 12 disk Lord of the Rings DVD set.

Or you could do a Ventriloquist double act with Ross, where you're the puppet on his knee. I think that would work well.

A handy number is the consumer direct hotline which is actually really, really helpful if you're having problems with a company. It's government run and funded so they know their stuff. And it's based in Lewis so they all have wicked accents. 08454040506

I'll ask my Mum. It's her first language.

I thought Plug It In - Basement Jaxx was amazing.

Jackson United Also - what did Shouting Myke change their name to? That was shit. Generally just Emo band names are wank.

I'm sorry, but does anyone think that this thread just shows how self-fucking-righteous some music fans can be? IMHO, Rollins can do whatever the hell he wants. It's his life and he doesn't owe justification to any one of us. I agree with everyone thats stated the bloody obvious - that life doesn't stand still and that consequently your morals and opinions change over time. WOWZA was that a revelation! Also James J. - I want to see a 1000 words on my desk by Monday detailing everything you know or knew EVER about Rollins. Anything that you do not mention but later rely on in your defence of his fan-dom may cause you to be sat on by a giant zebra. Sorry, but thats the way it goes son-ey. And please 'rune', spare me another disparaging remark. If you think i'm that fucking ignorant, then just don't read my posts.
