  • More guesses for the competition:FaithlessDub

    More guesses for the competition:

    • Faithless
    • Dub Pistols
    • Red House Painters

    All wrong. Keep trying. Don’t forget – artist *and* title.
    If nobody gets it by the end of the week, I’ll post a clue here.

  • AFF and TFF: no score

    AFF and TFF: no score this week, due to there being no Premiership matches as a result of the England v Greece match.
    However, I have applied for five (count them!) transfers for my AFF team, as follows:

    OUT: Paul Jones (Southampton)
    REPLACED BY: E van der Sar (Fulham)
    OUT: Jamie Clapham (Ipswich)
    REPLACED BY: Dominic Matteo (Leeds)
    OUT: Matt Elliott (Leicester)
    REPLACED BY: Rio Ferdinand (Leeds)
    OUT: Wes Brown (Manchester United)
    REPLACED BY: Olaf Mellberg (Aston Villa)
    OUT: Gustavo Poyet (Tottenham)
    REPLACED BY: Robert Pires (Arsenal)

    Hopefully, this will move me up the league from my current last-but-one place. “Hopefully”.

    You heard it here first.

    Interesting search referral for today: “things you don’t do in a pub or bar“.
    Well, I guess there are plenty of those things listed here.

  • Tonight at college, I was

    Tonight at college, I was elected as Student Representative for our class. I’m not sure quite what this means or entails – it probably sounds far more important than it actually is.
    Oh, and “elected” is probably a misnomer. It was more a case of:
    Eric (tutor): “You all need to nominate a student representative.”
    Students (as one): “Graham. He should do it.”
    Eric: “Fine.”
    Graybo: “muh?”
    Actually, I’ve already been told by my fellow students what I should do if I get the opportunity – go to a meeting, get bolshy (which I’m good at) and demand a good student bar. Give me the chance, and I’ll gladly oblige.

  • Guesses for the competiton received

    Guesses for the competiton received so far:

    • The Clash
    • Fairground Attraction
    • Mark Eitzel

    All good guesses. All wrong.
    Oh, and it must be artist *and* title to get the prize.

    I’m not sure that this is something I should be proud of. (via just about everybody.)

  • In a scary development, Meg

    In a scary development, Meg threatens to hunt your down and spank you. Thankfully, I don’t have any down. I’m a bit hairy in places, but that is probably too much information for you. However, I think that eider ducks should be warned of this development, and take appropriate precautions.

  • What the hell does this

    What the hell does this mean?

    Taurus
    If you’re happy with the way things are going, don’t be afraid to let your feelings be known. Unless you speak up, people will assume that you’re bored or unavailable. When the Moon is in its current Sign, the Bull understands a good deal better than most. Once you open the door for it, change will enter and redecorate your house. Don’t put limits on the things you do tonight. Let things happen naturally, and in their own time.

    So, should I take a course of action, or a course of inaction? Answers on a postcard please.

  • A dark night, in every

    A dark night, in every sense of the word.
    I’ve just enjoyed a lovely dinner in a warm and safe home. I have a glass of good wine by my side. But I can’t help but think about all those who are not enjoying and will not enjoy those luxuries tonight.
