My tent has still got these spores in it that I picked up from Croatia because I decided to camp underneath the tree in question.



Getting those spores out of my hair was a right cunt. I might have a clear out when I get to festival.

new Cathedral album is actually well good! Looking forward to seeing them again now :) also making me seriously consider the 20th anniversary show in london.. would be worth it for the forest of equilibrium set alone, but it's a bonus that i'd enjoy more of their other set too!

I moved my big bottle of water from my backpack into my sleeping bag (don't ask) and now I can fit all my clothes in my bag! I was a bit panicky for a bit because all I could fit in was underwear...would have made for an interesting festival :lol:

I think I'm all packed. I think. Tent, clothes, sleeping bag, food, drink.

Now just need to get started on my packing for Turkey (Read: throwing all the clothes I own in a suitcase = done).

E: And just as I type this my dad comes and gives me £50! :D

The family are off to Spain tomorrow afternoon, so I have the place to myself for 6 days after I'm back from BOA. :)

I bought that album today. It is awesome...although I've got a feeling it won't be for everyone considering the amount of prog/psychedelia involved. I've been on a bit of a psychedelic/prog binge recently, so I love it.

I met Levi Roots and got his latest book signed today. Once BOA is out of the way I'm gonna try some of the recipes. Some of the Caribbean variants of non-Caribbean dishes look interesting.
All right, so I MADE a mistake! ONE MISTAKE!

I'm 17 anyway. Ever since late 15 I've always been thought to be 18 or older. Actually, I had one yesterday and she thought I was like, 20? :?: I don't know whether that's good or bad tbh.

You could just say "Fuck Off Chugger!". That works for all ages.

In my first year of uni (when I was 19), several people assumed I was around 26. That hurt.

I got approached by a really really camp charity worker on the way back from the optician one day. He started calling to me from the other side of the pavement but since I had to take my lenses out for the check-up I couldn't see him at first. I told him I was sixteen and he did some strange hand gesture and just said "too young for me anyway" and pranced off. I was pretty confused.
