Well, not really done much to be honest! Had a lodger on the Thursday and Friday nights again So didnt do much except watch TV, chill out and have a few bevvies! Got the train home on Saturday morning for Xmas, and ended up bumping into Mr Bradley at the station, so at least i had someone to chat to on the way home! Got home at 6pm on Saturday, and have spent every evening so far in the pub lol. Went to Vegas on Xmas eve with Ste, Wonky,Aidy, etc. It was pretty good, but i wasnt really in the mood for a big one, even though i did get destroyed!!

Boxing day tonight, so we’re going round Wigan dressed up -Shambo and Wonky and co are going as the Jackson 5 (minus 1) and me and Steveo are going as prisoners for a laugh lol. Will be a good laugh, if we dont get stabbed!

Well, works been the same recently so not much to report back on their except im going to be getting involved in some very interesting stuff soon with virtualisation.

I spoke to my course tutor the other day, and the new ‘networking course’ that was propose has been ratified Meaning i am now on the BSc (Hons) Computer Networks course, woohoo. Its a lot better than my old course, and a lot less programming – so im very happy.

Had the intern ball on Wednesday at The Steam – and defamatory remarks aside (bite me), that place is the biggest rip-off, most extortionate, biggest pile of SHIT ever graced by my presence. Example – there were portaloos – inside the venue! Not even real toilets! It was a 2 course meal, no dessert! No table wine! Cheapest bottle of wine was £15! Absolute jokes. And we paid £50 each! NEVER EVER go to the Steam Museum if you live in Swindon, pleaseeee.

Aside from that, i’ve been spending more and more time with Fran, she’s stayed at mine / me at hers for like…4 out of 7 days recently, so we’re getting pretty close – so fingers crossed i dont blow this one! lol. Im going home tomorrow for Xmas, which will be fun – although it means ive got to spent another 4 hours on a sodding train. Im hoping to take my laptop with me though so at least i can play a few games to keep me less-bored hehe.

Well, another week gone by and not a lot more has happened! Have been keeping my head down at work and doing my job, seeing as ive just joined a new department i figured its probably a good idea to work my arse off for at least a couple of months! Went out on Thursday with everyone, ended up in Revs with Jamal and co, had a good laugh. Takeaway afterwards was hilarious, J Russell, Jay, Andy, Me, Jamal and Lockwoods mate all in stitches at random shit – proper laugh though!! Chilled out on Friday night, before heading out at 2pm on Saturday for the Football AGM which was pretty brutal! Fran joined us mid-way through the day and Gibbs, Her and Me went for a ruby murray at Picklejohns which was fun (that tastes like coconut!!!!). Ended up meeting Denz and a few others in town, but got split up as me and Miss Cottrell decided to go off and do our own thing!! Sunday was a pretty chilled day, got up about 2pm after a late night and played Fall of Man with Jamal for like…8 hours straight, then went to bed, happy days. Now im back in work all week, but its Gibbs and Brads birthday night out on Thursday, so they are going to get destroyed !! (As will probably I). Also, going home at the weekend for VIP tickets for the Man United vs Derby game, then the Hitman fight afterwards! Get in.

Well, after a loooong ride home with Matt on Friday night, i stayed up with Zena and just watched TV till about 2am! Got up on saturday and went Vegas with Ste and Wonky, stayed there until 5pm, went the Hares, stayed there until about 8pm after the footy, then went an met Aidy, Shannon and co in the Royal before going Vegas for a pretty messy night out! Met up with ginner, tyrer and Alec and had a pretty good night! Got up today feeling pretty messy, but its good to be home! Me and Emma had a good old text conversation  as well ( lol ) and i think my er… relationship future is pretty much sorted now hehe In some strange way anyway!! ^_^ Anyway, off for Sunday dinner, peace up and all that.

Still sobering up from yesterdays death binge lol. Woke up at 12, rolled out of my bed, got dressed an walked to Tomas. Got 24 stellas on the way, an sat in his watching the united game, Rugby game an playing Pro till about 10pm with some quality banter going on. The usual lads were round, Me, Toma, Andy Li, Jamal, Adjei and Jules, plus guest appearances from Mr Weston and Mr Shields! Ended up getting royally pissed, with Andy Li getting battered off 2 southern comforts and falling asleep under a ton of chairs! Ended up going to Brunel rooms and had a quality night, proper good laugh! Highlights of the evening include taking the piss out of a guy who was taking gangsta by saying ‘ok busta, chill the fuck out’, or Andy Li wondering why the pictures were dark when he had his finger over the flash lol. Ended up drinking about 15 pints of smirnoff ice (gotta love stealing drink vouchers), and we all had a quality night. Videos and pics are on facebook!

Well, another 2 months+ straight stint in Swindon is once again driving me crazy. The people in here are absolute nut cases, i swear to god. Nobody trusts anyone, everyone is out to fuck each other over, it is like everyone says; being back in High school. Spending 9 weeks of it straight through absolutely drives you to the brink though, add to that my dire situation with women, and the fact i spent 19 years of my life not wanting a girlfriend when i could have had .. tons, without bragging, and hey, as soon as i decide i want to get .. serious, with someone, there isnt one in sight. I know life is a funny old game and that god likes to have a giggle with everyone, but its infuriating at best. I was supposed to go home this Friday, but my family isnt in so no point going home when theres nobody there lol. Got the i-series next weekend, so its another 2 weeks before i go home and see everyone, which totally pisses me off. Something is going to snap soon in Intel, i can feel it.

Havent been up to anything recently at all. Went out with the Lads on Thursday to celebrate Toma’s birthday! Was a pretty good night, some funny shit happening but all in all a good un! Got my new phone on Friday, the Sony Ericsson k850i, which is verrrrrry sweet indeed! Loads of cool stuff in it etc. Bought myself a 4GB memory stick for it today, so i can get the most out of it, plus its pay day on Monday, woooo!

Had a meeting on Friday about i32, so will be working on the Intel stand for it on Thursday, Friday and Saturday! Free bar at night etc, awesome.
