My name was read out on 'The Birthday Spot' AND on Nickelodeon. I got a free Rocko's Modern Life t-shirt and a Take That video. Good times.

"Are you looking at my bra?!" (said in the style of Reeves and Mortimer)

Haven't really posted up on this thread in a bit, it seems like im neglecting my bus duties, im not, im just lazy. But yeah thanks to Kev, much appreciated, and ill see anyone else who is there on Tuesday. LET THE METAL COMMENCE IN 3WEEKS...

You know when you're in that 1/2 asleep state of mind? Well sometimes i'd be 1/2 dreaming and think i was being possessed, which was actually pretty scary because it felt so real and i thought i was still awake. Mostly in my dreams im running away from people trying to kill me which is quite worrying, and repetitive. It's like constantly replaying Halloween in my head...except he wants to kill me. I usually wake up just as he is about to stab me. I have the best/worst dreams though. My friends think i need to see a dream counsellor person because they are so fucked up.

Then you should hear what our friend Hutchy has to say for himself. He wants to go to Donington wearing nothing but y-fronts, a bra and a crazy multi-coloured kitchen hat. We'll have to wait and see if he goes through with it.

Yeah, Thursday it shall be. We're getting picked up here at 6am, so should be in Aberdeen at like...7-7.15am or thereabouts. But ill pm everybody the exact details as soon as ive gone down to the company to get some written confirmation incase they bullshit us. Not entirely sure how this payment thing is going to work, we were thinking we'd come into Aberdeen and collect it off you guys, the only problem there being im sure that not everyone will be able to meet on the same day. But fret not, we will come up with a plan!

Right, ill just list names, the first 17 are from the Banff/Macduff area, so you probably wont know them, but might have seen them at gigs, or around Aberdeen. Myself, spleen_of_gold, Kimbe, Harriet, Phoebe, Slow, Alex, Hutchy, Jamie, Ewan, Stuart, Nick, Jordan, Chapman, Johnny, Karen, Vicki, Johnathon, Kristofer (sp, sorry), Kev, Will, Andy, Hayley, Haigyman + 6, and Demon of the Fall + 2.

There are 7 seats left, so the more the merrier! Just let me know when i can confirm you and ill answer any questions that you (or anybody else for that matter) might have.

Yeah, Steph (spleen_of_gold) has told me, so you guys are included in the 17people that have already agreed to come with us. We'll keep in touch to let you guys know whats going on!

Right, spleen_of_gold already posted this, but just to make it even clearer we are looking for more people to fill a bus we have organised. Now it'll be pretty cheap if we fill the whole thing up, so its a 33seater that will be able to stop in Aberdeen to pick anyone else up who wants to come with us, and its return. There are 16 free seats left, and it doesn't matter if you don't know us, Hell you don't even have to speak to us if you don't want to, but we'd appreciate anybody thats looking for a cheaper-than-average way down to help us (and yourselves) out. The overall cost of the bus hire is 1450, so if we get the full 33 people it's only going to be 44. I also checked out train costs (from Aberdeen to Derby) which would cost you 67.50, so even if we only managed to get 22people altogether, it's still going to be cheaper. If you are at all interested, or have any questions, then get in touch with either me or spleen_of_gold and we'll get back to you asap. Thanks.

Don't generalise everyone that comes from Banff to be a "moron".

Oh yeah..!

I had a fish scale in my eye for a couple weeks (it wasn't intentional)

10/10 Johnathan! Without wanting to sound like a simpleton, I like the ones that move... My avatar is of me, so if it is rated shit, I dont mind, it just shows that im lazy and not creative (no offence intended to those who also have avatars of themselves.)

Im currently doing Maths, English, Human Biology, Modern Studies and Info Systems. I didn't really know what i wanted to do either, so i took a range of subjects so that i would have options, which in theory i guess is a good idea. Unfortunately, i hate doing info systems, maths and modern studies (even though i liked them at standard grade) and ive now realised my ambition to be a scientist so i should have taken higher chemistry instead of one of those. I also should have taken something else i actually like doing, like art. I can easily do them next year i suppose though. But i agree with other people, Info systems is easy and Human biology is ace! Anyways, my advice would be to pick wisely, take something you enjoy, whilst keeping your options open, but maybe take two sciences...i think i just kind of contradicted myself...oh well...

Holy crap, i cant wait till January! Why won't the hurt process enjoy coming back to aberdeen? I missed them in September, was it a bad gig or something?

We should so have a sandwich party, and everyone brings sandwiches...! Sorry, but anyone who knows me, knows my love for sandwiches. I even made up a saying, "a rushed sandwich, is not a loved sandwich." Im so pathetic.

I love toasties and every other sandwich related food thing! I dont understand people that dont like sandwiches.... freaks. Anyways, i havent experimented a lot with toasties, just sandwiches. I'm more of an old-skool toastie eater, y'know, cheese and beans, or cheese and ham. You cant beat a good bacon and philadelphia sandwich though! Just as long as you cut the bacon up into little pieces and its crispy! Oh, and did you know that on some jars of Helmans mayonnaise there is a number you can phone for free and they send you a booklet on sandwich fillings? Genius!

Yeah thats my Fab Gang alter-ego name... Actually it was a Download thing.

Yeah, thats me! Who r you?

I thought it was great, especially since i don't get to go to gigs as often as i would like to. I can't help but be biased about Five Finger Discount too! Thats the first time ive seen the other bands play though (like i said, don't get to go 2 gigs as much as id like) and they were bloody ace, although i could only stay 4 one song by Broken Sunshine - had to go get the bus home. Probably see them again anyway!

Some guy was there that knew what to do and told me to take my clothes off coz the wasps was on my clothes. It did actually help because my mate Steph didnt take her trousers off and she has a some more stings than me.

This has to be one of the weirdest drinking stories ever, so i just thought id leave it 4 u all 2 see. Last night, me and a few friends was having a drink in the woods (as you do), and as i was sobering up, the police came, so we had 2 run into a different part of the woods. Unknown to us, where we just happened to stop and hide, was a wasps hive. So after standing there for about 5minutes, i thought i got stung by a nettle, so i jumped and then it was like a little mexican wave of pain up my legs. Everyone looked at me, wondering what the hell was wrong, and then sum1 shouted "Wasps!". Me and my friend Steph got hit the worst, we had to run behind a bush and take of all our clothes so we could stop being stung. As that didnt help, we then had to run through the golf course that was next to the woods (still almost topless, i put my trousers back on by this point) to get away from those flying fiends. Managing to get home about 20minutes later, my mum stayed up with me till about 2-3am, soaking me in vinegar. She counted about 20 stings. And this morning, i went to put last nights clothes in the wash and found a wasp in my sock. This story will be hilarious in about a week....
