A Late Congrats To Vicki!

On Tuesday a group of us went to see young Vicki O'Regan performing at a comedy night in Camden. What can I say... fan-tastic! I see a bright future for Vicki if she keeps it up! Well done!



Incidentally, that's not a picture from the comedy night, but it could be, couldn't it?

Happy Belated Birthday Benjamin!

Benjamin turned 9 yesterday (give or take a decade or two), so in celebration we joined him down the pub on Sunday and had a right good knees up! Here's the birthday boy in his football top:-



And here's the cover of the 1957 Beano Book:-



The similarity is uncanny! Anyway, for more pictures of the happy day, click here!

What Is Going On?

Well, Friday was fun! The only people to turn up for the gig was me. Saf, Tracey and Sahil! Seb claimed he would turn up (again!) but got pissed (again)! He's apologised (for the first time), but that isn't good enough! This Sunday is Ben's birthday celebration, and I expect everyone to turn up! Okay?

Plans For Tonight

Well, Saf has once again rather kindly organised a night out for all of his friends. Unfortunately, as it stands, all of his friends consist of me and Tracey! So people, I'm begging you, even if you already have plans, cancel them and turn up at 93 Feet East tonight from about 8pm and enjoy the music of Dragonette (current highests chart position 93) amongst others. Directions in the link!

Update From Saf...

Well, the bad news is that 11 girls have told Saf to, and I quote, "fuck off and die!" The good news is that two girls have said "Yes please, give me some of that Sarfaraz action!" Of the three girls Saf liked, one of them said yes so, if you think about it, that's a 33% success rate! Way to go Saf!

My Best Friend's Love-Life

No, this isn't a sequel to the slushy Julia Roberts movie of 1997, this is poor little Saf who went speed dating yesterday, all on his lonesome! A brave man, I'd say, but so far the results aren't looking too good. Four responses, four no's. It's not right, Saf is a catch-and-a-half and women don't seem to be able to see it! It makes me sick! Check out his view on the whole sordid affair!

Everybody Is Useless!

Well, I went to see Spider-Man 3 on friday with all of my friends - that's right, Paul! No other bugger turned up! How crap is that? Well, I wasn't too pleased, especially as they're always saying we never organise anything. Well, when we do, they don't turn up! Grr!

We Are The Champions!

At last! We finally won the jackpot at the Pelican pub! Hoorah! This would be team supreme Edward Davies and Natalie Mycielski (the absentee Sarfaraz Hussain joined us late!). And we won by a clear 12 points. Again it was Rod Jane or Freddie and, under Natalie's guidance I grabbed my Rod firmly and hit the jackpot! £50 each isn't bad, and I hope you all join us one week - you too could be a winner!

This Weekend...

Well, having realised that Saf is the only reliable friend I have, I've persuaded him to take the reins of decision and guide the steeds of enjoyment towards an actual night out this weekend! Unfortunately so far only five definites are on board! How crap are you all? I haven't seen most of you for almost a month, and through no fault of my own! You're all RUBBISH!

ps. I hope to see you all in Islington tomorrow night at Club de Fromage!

I Need A New Job!

Firstly, I keep getting into trouble. A client sent in an enquiry for what appeared to me to be a simple padmounted transformer, worth maybe £6-7,000. Low and behold they'd made a typo and it was actually for a generator worth in the region of £200,000! And who gets the blame? Moi! And when Juffers leaves, this place will be torture!

Move over Saf, there's a new man heading to the job centre!

Quiz Night!

Well, there was a massive turnout for the weekly Pelican Pub Quiz - me AND Ben! Wow! We did win, no thanks to everyone who didn't bother showing up, and got a free round with £4 shiny pounds to spare. Not wanting to waste the money, we hastily invested it in another round and drank that too! Hmm. There better be a bigger turnout next week, or heads will roll!

Time To Own Up...

Okay, it's been a month so it's safe to say it's going well; I thought I'd better finally admit that I've started seeing someone... hence the lack of comedy dating stories. Her name's Tracey (sorry, no photographs) and I met her the old fashioned way, thus proving that internet dating is rubbish! She's lovely, and everyone (well, three people really) who've met her say she's nice, so that's good. Fingers crossed I don't mess it up! :D
