I just watched this about Blackpool, loads of old footage, it's ace

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00tlvj3/Blackpool_on_Film/

I have leftover from last night's AMAZING dinner and I'm trying to decide which gig to go to later, or whether to stay home and continue air drumming in my bedroom. My rats are ready but I can't get a lift to pick them up, WOE IS ME.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!

dukebox | 6 Nov '11, 17:04 | X
- hi!
  
  I want some sprouts
  
  Scout @dukebox | 6 Nov '11, 17:15 | X
  - maybe ill watch all the leprechaun movies on lovefilm
    
    i wish you didnt have to pay to stream these ones
    
    dukebox @Scout | 6 Nov '11, 17:56 | X
    - I can't believe they're charging for all of them
      
      :'(
      
      guntrip @dukebox | 6 Nov '11, 18:02 | X
    - ha!
      
      I was telling someone about those on Friday
      
      Scout @dukebox | 6 Nov '11, 18:30 | X
it's pretty cold in my flat.

have to do a 10-minute presentation on macrocytic anaemia to my ENTIRE YEAR (that's 180 people) on Tuesday, trying to write it at the moment. Too easily distracted by the internet though, as per.

OceanStorm | 6 Nov '11, 17:13 | X
- practice it on tinychat tonight
  
  Scout @OceanStorm | 6 Nov '11, 17:17 | X
  - haha, that might actually be a tougher crowd than a year of medical students
    
    though I've never actually been on tinychat, so I can't really judge. I always imagined it was just like MSN, is it more like Skype then (with video and sound)?
    
    OceanStorm @Scout | 6 Nov '11, 17:25 | X
    - it depends on the night
      
      who can say!
      
      Scout @OceanStorm | 6 Nov '11, 17:29 | X
      - I can say
        
        That it is absolutely soul destroying

Evening plan (tentative)

Get some work done, then eat steak and watch the US Office.

Evening plan (likely)

Mess about on internet, then eat steak and watch the US Office.

Steve13105895 | 6 Nov '11, 17:15 | X
- my plan is starting to look like that too
  
  as one of the gigs I was thinking of going to starts really early so I might miss it.
  
  I already saw US Office this week though, boo :(
  
  Scout @Steve13105895 | 6 Nov '11, 17:19 | X
watching the lost world on tv

putting off preparing my presentation for tomorrow morning as long as possible

whiterussian | 6 Nov '11, 17:17 | X
- gah! I hate presentations
  
  good luck
  
  Scout @whiterussian | 6 Nov '11, 17:28 | X
  - it's only like 5 minutes in front of maybe 20 people, so not a disaster
    
    i just hate preparing for these things. i also have to give the presentation together with some guy who barely speaks english
    
    whiterussian @Scout | 6 Nov '11, 17:29 | X
There is something deeply wrong about working on Sunday and then having to work Monday

Deeply wrong.
Have you decided to call your rats Chaka Demus and Pliers yet?

stormcrow | 6 Nov '11, 17:18 | X
- you know, I have been worrying about not choosing 90s names for them
  
  it goes against all my ethics. I don't know, I like the names I've chosen but, hmmmm, need more 90s.
  
  Scout @stormcrow | 6 Nov '11, 17:21 | X
  - What did you go for then?
    
    If it's better than CD&P I'll give you: A TV licence (from 2009 I think); a roll (part-used) of insulation tape; an old set of car keys and a hat.
    
    stormcrow @Scout | 6 Nov '11, 17:49 | X
    - Well, I'm pretty sure Buckminster and Astrid
      
      but I dunno, I'll have to wait til I see their lovely little faces
      
      Scout @stormcrow | 6 Nov '11, 18:01 | X
      - Those are good names...
        
        but I shall be keeping my precious things
        
        stormcrow @Scout | 6 Nov '11, 18:21 | X
I changed it up and slept in the spare room last night

its smaller and warmer. Im still sat here now under the duvet applying for jobs and filling out applications.

when will you get your rats then? can you get a lift this week?

MissBass | 6 Nov '11, 17:20 | X
- Tuesday I think but I really want to go now :(
  
  I don't know any one with a car except my mental housemate who I'm keeping them secret from
  
  Scout @MissBass | 6 Nov '11, 17:27 | X
I liked that bit too

THEY'VE JUST BEEN BLOODY THROWN UP!

I'll look up that guy, ta :D

Thanks for that link, I'm actually going to write about White City soon so that's awesome! Apparently that's the cleanest location to have it, the way the wind blows or something, so it would stay white longer there. But there's also suggestions that it's there because the architect's local boozer was down the road. Thanks kik! <3

Scout @bryangiggs | 6 Nov '11, 17:25 | X
thank you!

Scout @bryangiggs | 6 Nov '11, 17:30 | X
Watching the telly

Might christen my George Foreman

prison_keith | 6 Nov '11, 17:29 | X
heeeeey(ley)

spent most of this morning figuring out how to use excel and mail chimp. i also successfully set up a printer and scanner. i thought i was rubbish with computers but it seems to be working ok for me. probably spent too much time around all you nerds. and i joined the aquatics centre. later i'm going to use the sauna. sooo excited about this.

DarwinDude | 6 Nov '11, 17:30 | X
- i don't know what they're gonna do though
  
  you're really not meant to get chlorine in the sauna and without taking off your costume, i don't see how that's possible...
  
  DarwinDude @DarwinDude | 6 Nov '11, 17:32 | X
  - Pixies night on Friday
    
    moousee @DarwinDude | 6 Nov '11, 17:35 | X
    
    Scout and DarwinDude this'd this
  - Went to some stupid bar in Brick Lane last night
    
    where a security guard WATCHED me take a piss.
    
    Tonight I'm going to eat some ribs and pretend I don't have work tomorrow.
    
    DanielKelly | 6 Nov '11, 17:34 | X
    - I was on Brick Lane last night
      
      Was it just me, or was the atmosphere a bit... tense?
      
      Kitchmo @DanielKelly | 6 Nov '11, 17:48 | X
      - The atmosphere while I was trying to a piss definitely was.
        
        DanielKelly @Kitchmo | 6 Nov '11, 17:53 | X
  - Sorry to rub it in guys, but I'm not working tomorrow!
    
    Week off! Going back to Cardiff for a few days. Have had a fantastic weekend, will spend this evening with X Factor and doughnuts. At the moment though, I'm finding is strangely hard to turn off Songs of Praise...
    
    hip_young_gunslinger | 6 Nov '11, 17:34 | X
    - I'm in Cardiff atm too
      
      Advance warning: it's raining a lot most of the time and there are a load of banners up for some rallying thing that's happening at the end of this week.
      
      Steve13105895 @hip_young_gunslinger | 6 Nov '11, 17:53 | X
      - I always expect rain when I go back to Wales.
        
        It's one of those sterotypes that's disappointingly true.
        
        hip_young_gunslinger @Steve13105895 | 6 Nov '11, 19:14 | X
        
        Let me know if you're planning on swinging by the middle at all
        
        There's actually a restaurant called The Meating Place on St Mary Place which is almost too perfect to be true.

    - aw how will you be spending your time in cardiff?
      
      i miss cardiff
      
      whiterussian @hip_young_gunslinger | 6 Nov '11, 18:20 | X
      - Probably won't see much of it beside the station,
        
        my parents live in a little place outside Cardiff so I'll mostly be there, enjoying the pub with my old school friends who never managed to escape, god bless 'em.
        
        hip_young_gunslinger @whiterussian | 6 Nov '11, 19:15 | X
        
        what's it called out there?
        
        whiterussian @hip_young_gunslinger | 6 Nov '11, 19:37 | X
  - Scout, have you watched the vbs documentary on Blackpool?
    
    Not sure what I'm doing tonight. I've spent most of the weekend being antisocial and watching streaming movies via Lovefilm. Might continue with that tbh. I was gonna do some work but I'm mega exhausted from walking around Edinburgh in the cold doing a building-use survey on a couple of streets ZZZZZzzzzzz
    
    guntrip | 6 Nov '11, 17:38 | X
    - I don't think I have
      
      I will though!
      
      Scout @guntrip | 6 Nov '11, 18:02 | X
      - it's very good
        
        bleak.
        
        i remember someone on here found a 40 bed hotel for sale that would've worked out at like £5k a head if full. we should all move there and turn it into an indie colony, it'd be awesome.
        
        guntrip @Scout | 6 Nov '11, 18:03 | X
        
        I remember that too
        
        Blackpool is so grim
        
        Scout @guntrip | 6 Nov '11, 18:15 | X
  - i'm about to go see We Need To Talk About Kevin
    
    might go for some drinks after. Spent most of today watching Breaking Bad. So good!
    
    pip_ | 6 Nov '11, 17:42 | X
  - I'm making a picture
    
    it's a vector.
    
    untrue | 6 Nov '11, 17:42 | X
  - Doing an essay on The Waste Land.
    
    It's horrible, Eliot just threw together loads of bits of other stories into one and somehow made it really gay.....this is more or less what I am writing about.
    
    Might watch parks and recreation as a break.
    
    skellywager | 6 Nov '11, 18:26 | X
    - aw, this week's is good

        P&R
        
        Scout @skellywager | 6 Nov '11, 18:37 | X
        
        Oh right, I am only on season two at the moment.
        
        It's good
        
        skellywager @Scout | 6 Nov '11, 18:44 | X
  - I wen tto Blackpool last year, for a *lads* event
    
    it was a really good night out, but was really depressing at the same time, as I remembered all the holidays I went on when I was really young, and it is such a family unfriendly place now (I witnessed a 40+ person fight in the middle of the day).
    
    Kitchmo | 6 Nov '11, 18:39 | X

  - Saw Ides of March today.
    
    It was like a feature length episode of the West Wing, which is no bad thing.

  - Going to the cinema this evening.
    
    Don't want to go see Tin Tin though as I've heard it is absolutely shite.

    Waiting to be let in to antlers...I just had a mcd apple pie..wrong decision.
