Google cures all.

Got the internet running through Googles DNS server instead of TalkTalks.

No more internet issues. Fuck yeah.

I've been overwhelmed by relative strangers generosity today, getting some very generous donations coming through, mostly appear to be from this place.

I take it back, you guys are nice :lol:

Become quite matey with the deputy gaffa up the local. Gave me a full pint for the cost of a half yesterday because it was coming towards the bottom of the barrel and he wanted me to try it. Good stuff too, just a shame I can't remember what the ale was called.

I assume so, it's pretty much a set in stone annual thing. You're probably better off asking someone else for details though, since I deleted Facebook I tend to only find out about things at the last minute :lol:

Fun day in college. Pints, pool, and I only attended 2 lectures. Plus my entire class is like a big family now. I'm fucking loving it here :)
If I like it, It's probably awful.

Clutch, Kamelot and The Ocean for BOA 2014 pls!

It's coming up to the end of Thursday. Meaning it's Friday tomorrow. Meaning in 24 hours it'll be the weekend.

I fucking love weekends. :D

Oh and the Hellfest and Avantasia being at Bloodstock announcements made me VERY happy indeed. :D
