listen please - royal wedding special

so i share an office with an accountant who runs a business called argot accounting. he is away this week so i am stuck answering his phone and taking messages.
i have i just had a very long conversation with  a silly old woman who did not want to listen to what i said. it went a little something like this.....

me: good morning argot accounting dave speaking
woman: why is it so hard to get hold of you's?
me: erm can i help?
woman: yeah i want to return something to your shop, its broken.
me: ah i think you want argos, we are argot accounting, nothing to do with argos.
woman: its a fish fryer, i only got it in january, and its broken already.
me: i understand that, but we are argot accounting, nothing to do with argos.
woman: you see it actually broke about a month ago, but i couldnt find the box. could i return it without the box?
me: i wouldnt know, this isnt argos.
woman: its ok though as i have found the box now. thats why i am trying to return it now.
me: well that should be better, if you get in touch with ARGOS they should be able to help you.
woman: can you put me through to the store in the hill street centre?
me: no i'm sorry i dont know there number and we have nothing to do with them
woman: why is it so hard to get through to the store i want, all i want to do is return this fish fryer
me: this is not argos
woman: can i just bring it to the store now

at this point i put the phone down. she called back so i told her "fuck off this is not argos" she seemed offended. this is a genuinely true story and this is about the 3rd time this has happened to me when i have been answering the phones here

also a true story, the royal wedding tomorrow is in doubt, after it has come out that ryan giggs has actually been banging kate middleton. we'll still get the holiday though so its all good

another true story. prince harry and prince phillip accidentally killed a prostitute on williams stag do, it was a blinding night though and its not like they havent done it before


he got the 4th medal along for being racist once on a trip to china. and see them swirly things on his shoulder? yeah? up there in the picture? he wears them cos they look pretty!

and if you pull on the rope he turns back into a reptile. its called his 'emergency return switch' all shape shifting reptilians have them. some are a little less obvious though. for example anthea turner has a small button behind her left ear, and with Dermot Murnaghan you have to punch him in the face.

so the first story i told was true, the others may or may not have been. who knows, i know i certainly dont!

strawberry jam rules

tonight i will make music.

i should wrap this up now 

or should i

are you really still reading

did you know that elton john is a cyborg and rod stewart is a lizard person?

1 step forward a million steps back

not wrote a blog for a few days cos my head is spinning. this is gonna be one of those ones where i dont write nonsense, where i dont write about a dog in a hat, where i spill the contents of my silly little head.

i am sad, feeling down, not knowing where i am going, i am winding myself up over things i cant control and wondering where all my confidence has gone. i am wondering where it all went wrong. what i did wrong and why i cant get this one thing out of my head. why am i so bothered about it? why do i feel so lonely? why do i still want back the one thing that has made me hurt so much for the last month?

i need to get away, meet new people, see new things. i need to get a good nights sleep and forget it all, i need to not write shit like this and make myself look like a pathetic fool.

i need aims and goals and to find myself again. i need a haircut. i need to get off facebook where i endlessly look to see what is going on, or where i put out some vaguely disguised depressing self pitying status in the hope i will get a text asking if i am ok. i really should delete all this but i still want someone to reach out to me and tell me its all gonna be ok and the time i needed has passed.

Ryan giggs has been a naughty boy....

or so i've heard. in other football news i ruined a match for everyone last night by turning up to watch it at half time when there had been 5 goals in the first half so obviously there was only 1 in the second. so i've been struggling to to think of things to write this blog about, i've spent the last couple of days with my brain refusing to think of anything. i thought i'd mention that. some bloke on the radio just pronounced toilet, turlet. whats that all about?

ooh i put the lottery on last night, i wonder if i won.

nah i didnt!

so back to football, i also saw madrid beat barcelona in the spanish cup last night. i like this because i like jose mourinho. maybe a little too much. i think i probably would you know!


after the match in a fit of anger, because someone had asked him the time even though they knew the battery had gone in his watch, real madrid player sergio 'i miss my watch' ramos threw the spanish cup off the top of the team bus. this was made easier as it was a convertable bus and had its roof down cos it was a warm evening.



he then proceeded to rant about his issues with cats. he was spotted writing in big letters on a wall at the team hotel "The inherent problem with most cats is that they are not very delicious and rarely fly through space leaving rainbow trails". jose mourinho then slapped him and sent him to bed. what a man! 

anyways hopefully over the weekend i will be able to think of something to write! 

and i didnt win the lottery :(

feeling brighter

last night i was on the radio. it was fun. a bit of a rollercoaster. i got freaked out. USE YOUR EARS HERE
I was on the radio with ste aka jake radio aka jake ray-dio aka indie jesus or something like that. he's in a band. so am i. guess our name. search for us. listen. come to a gig. please buy a cd or download or something, we REALLY need some money!

i'm using lots of full stops today for some reason.

i'm trying hard with twitter at the minute too, trying to get into it #whatsthefuckingpoint

i love my friends

i'm really annoyed with myself. i started writing this with the intention of writing about something. i thought to myself i'll start with a but of billshit and work up to the main point. but i have totally forgotten what i was gonna write about, ah well another blog will probably turn up later with that.

aparently this is me.
