I go very rarely but the theatre is great. It's an entirely different experience to movies. I'm going in July, local production in the city I live.

I have got a clue what Gas and IM are waffling about

It's been some time since the last time I was as amazed as 2 minutes ago when one word of Finnish popped up in the middle of English language subtitles for Negative Happy Chainsaw Edge.

And no, it's not something I did while asleep

I checked the original source and it's there. I suppose the translator was Finnish.

It made me smile. I quite like Spiders. Maybe not the big fuckers that can poison you but the wee house ones.

Don't know if i mentioned it before but after my health problems earlier in the year i decided to try and lose some weight (i am a fattie) joined Slimming World and at my weigh-in on Wednesday i was a 1lb short of a 4 stone total weight loss...55lb! pretty good i think as i've only been on it 3 months.

I went to London today on a day out with family

Went round the Borrough (sp?) market in London Bridge where they have all sorts of food stalls

I bought a saucisson, sausages, fudge and cinder toffee/honeycomb

Had a lovely lunch, walked on the Millennium Bridge and a bit of Tate Modern.
It was very good

I scored 2 goals in football today, would of been 3 but the keeper made a good save. The 1st goal I scored myself, 2nd one I won a penalty (and converted it) as some git was holding on/clambering over me!

I scored another 2 goals in football yesterday (Special Olympics), but didnt know much about the 2nd goal, the ball just went in off my leg

No, what you really mean is that you used your supreme skill to make the goal look easy.

I have heard another concert is being planned in my area, and I'm wanted to sing at it. (!) No idea what to sing though. I wound up singing Yesterday (with guitar) and All Over The World (acapella) at a group barbecue.
Maybe Yesterday is a good choice? It is after all the most covered song in history.

that's the very reason it isn't a good choice..try and sing something less predictable!

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 12 Jul 2009, 12:00

Good point. It's just that someone said "Why don't you go for something that is well known" - maybe not THAT well known.

Haven't decided what song yet. Its a long way off though.
I don't want to do something too predictable, as Sam said.

Been to the hospital again today to talk to another specialist about my stomach-problems.
They again took a bunch of blood-samples to test for some stuff, and luckily this time they will also test for Crohn and Coeliac disease, which they hadn't done before(!)

Also they're gonna send a camera-crew up my ass again (No Brad, I will NOT share those pictures with you), so maybe this time they'll find something they might have missed last time (gawd I hope I haven't been anal-probed by aliens).

So I'm happy they are willing to continue the search of what's wrong with me (stomach-wise), cause basically the last time I spoke to my regular doctor I got the same answer my dietitian gave me: "we have no clue what's causing your problems and we can't think of any other shit to test...", so that was kinda demotivating.

I hope this time they'll find something, and hopefully solve the problem.

There's a programme about this case on ITV1 at 10:35 pm tonight...

Thanks kids.

Yeah it sucks, but as always, things could also have been a lot worse, so at times I feel bad about it (obviously), and at other times I know very well that many people have it much worse in life than I have.
