  • shitty 2013 is over

    i've got two weeks left here and then i'm moving to london. what's not to feel good about? can't wait

    • It's good to hear you being optimistic

      I was worried for you at times last year!

      <3

      NoahVale @cat_race | 3 Jan '14, 09:04 | X
      • <3

        it was just a bit much at times to be honest.

        cat_race @NoahVale | 3 Jan '14, 09:09 | X
    • Know where you'll be living yet?

      plasticniki @cat_race | 3 Jan '14, 09:08 | X
      • islington first

        then after i get there i'll be using my weekends to go and explore a little bit. somewhere near elephant and castle tube seems like it would be easy to commute and be near brixton and stuff. is it shitty round there?

        cat_race @plasticniki | 3 Jan '14, 09:09 | X
        • It's not the nicest but it's absolutely fine and a good transport hub,

          good for Brixton and Peckham. IIRC wiggy and sarcasticfringehead live round there? No idea what it's like on the Bakerloo line in the mornings, mind.

          plasticniki @cat_race | 3 Jan '14, 09:13 | X
          • well

            elephant and castle is the first stop i thought that might make it alright? but maybe not. idk. this is all the stuff i need to work out. if you had to get to baker street where would you live?

            cat_race @plasticniki | 3 Jan '14, 09:16 | X
            • Anywhere on the Victoria line

              so you can get to Kings Cross and then Baker Street

              meowington @cat_race | 3 Jan '14, 09:28 | X
              • I love how we're all basically trying to flog c_r where we live.

                Come SOUTH!

                  • NO WAI!

                    plasticniki @GayGuevara | 3 Jan '14, 09:37 | X
            • I work at Baker Street

              and live in Peckham, it's pretty easy, takes half an hour and get either overground to Canada Water or train to LDN Bridge (but try to avoid that when it's rush hour) and Jubilee line from there.

              Baker Street is on the Bakerloo though so direct from E&C, which has loads of transport links (bus, tube, train) and walking distance to South Bank which is nice

  • Despite having no job yet

    I have an idea for a new business that might be a goer.

    2013 was a really shit year for me, in fact I think it may have been the worst I ever had. In 2014 things can only get better: the only way is up, baby

    • If this is the Allen Key thing then by next year you'll be a millionaire.

  • 1. Bruges at the end of the month.

    2. Some excellent gigs and theatre trips coming up.

    These things are currently keeping me going.

    plasticniki | 3 Jan '14, 09:09 | X
    • This is the secret to getting through January

      Get things planned. Only been to Bruges once - the beer was very strong

      NoahVale @plasticniki | 3 Jan '14, 09:11 | X
      • This is the second year I've planned an extremely beer-focused trip for late January.

        Such a good idea. I'd recommend it to everyone.

        plasticniki @NoahVale | 3 Jan '14, 09:14 | X
        • I've sort of done the same

          Berlin last Feb, Berlin this Feb. The girlfriend wants to go as she's never really been anywhere like it. I look forward to the endless amount of great gigs and clubs!

          useded @plasticniki | 3 Jan '14, 10:02 | X
  • Hmmm

    Hopefully Mrs C_B will be back tonight.
    2013 was shit, my worst year, despite some good things happening like moving house.
    I can have some beer tonight.
    I don't have to get up for work tomorrow.
    Other things.

  • I'm ever the optimist

    but last night things got a bit bad between me and the thinly veiled and I didn't sleep all night, which in turn caused me to have a panic attack. Sitting at work feeling like a zombie staring at this recharge spreadsheet trying to remember what it is.

    Happy New Year!

    CillaCrack | 3 Jan '14, 09:11 | X
    • Sorry to hear that

      I had some messed up dreams last night, aswell there was some really, really strong wind which caused me to stay awake.

      Hope things get resolved if they haven't already.

      useded @CillaCrack | 3 Jan '14, 10:07 | X
  • well, it's Friday

    So there's that.

    • What does an Essex Girls' hen do look like these days?

      NoahVale @meowington | 3 Jan '14, 09:29 | X
      • Its likely I'll be the only Essex girl on the Hen

        as she's from Blackpool and most of her friends are from The North.

        I'll show them all up.

        meowington @NoahVale | 3 Jan '14, 09:36 | X
        • If she's from Blackpool

          I wouldn't count on it

          NoahVale @meowington | 3 Jan '14, 12:54 | X
  • First day back at work

    I got a seat on the Central Line. That's as good as its gonna get.

    • today and yesterday have been such pleasant commutes

      all forgotten by Monday.

      Severed799 @roastthemonaspit | 3 Jan '14, 09:44 | X
      • Uggh

        Got quite excited about a rare quietish day on the tubes, but whilst it was quiet, jubilee line being knackered and metropolitan being slow still made it shit. Roll on Monday.

        BobRickerton @Severed799 | 3 Jan '14, 10:57 | X

  • OMG

    I cracked 2 eggs on Wednesday and they were both double yolkers.
    I cracked 2 more eggs today and they were also both double yolkers!
    HOW MUCH GOOD LUCK IS THAT

    meowington | 3 Jan '14, 09:50 | X
    • However, in some parts of Britain a double-yolked egg is a warning of death.)"

      Noblet @meowington | 3 Jan '14, 09:52 | X
      • NO.

        Its good luck. VERY good luck.

    Have been scuppered because of a bomb scare.

    It's a blessing really.

    Dans | 3 Jan '14, 11:10 | X
    • Um, by which I mean it turned out to not be a bomb

      According to bbc twitter anyways.

      If that's wrong, I retract my last post.

  • 1) 2013 is dead and buried

    2) tomorrow night I am off for drinks with a girl I met on mon night! :)
    3) my ex got in touch with me the other day and for the first time since we broke up I didn't feel like shit afterwards

    Mon 2014, we've started very well, lets keep it up! :)
