How are you finding it?

I keep thinking about going back to karate, but I lack the motivation, and I'm not really sure about the protocol of going back to it after several years. :/

Really enjoying it. It's fucking hard work though, I wasn't in exactly what you'd call great shape when I started :lol:

Brown bread is now my new favourite food. As is sweet potato. And beans.

Found one of my all time favourite NWOBHM singles online! Unfortunately it's 70 quid.

I've been up for an hour and have already cleaned downstairs and done a fair bit of revision. I barely have anything left to learn for my exam tomorrow. Schwing.

Which one? Let me guess: either Bashful Alley, Virtue or Bleak House?

Y Dwialed "Noson Y Blaidd"


Which reminds me, i still need to get cash together and go see if that guy at the market on sundays still has that Bleak House single. It was a steal at 50 quid, but can probably argue it lower than that.

Wow, I figured they were so obscure I didn't ever bother looking for any of their stuff :lol: And you should man, at 50 sheets they're practically giving it away. If nothing else, buy it and sell it on straight away and I reckon you'd get 80 at least!

Interview went alright.

And then had the hilarious spike of self hatred because I bigged myself up for like 20 minutes.
