Oh Hiiiiiii!

Leeds Festival has been and gone and all I can say is, WOW!. It was simply amazing, fantastic music, great friends, camp fires and drink - is there anything else needed in life?

You want my top 3 events of Leeds? No. Well, shut up and listen:

3.) Camping

Well, it wasn't really an event but the experience as a whole. Making new friends, pile-ons, catapults, broken tents, all night raves and generally just having a great laugh with everyone. Oh, and spacing everything in sight with silver spray paint. Weird, I know. The drinking was good as well, starting..... when we arrived and finished when we got back home.

2.) Chris passing out for a whole day

Chris got abit too excited and drank almost a whole crate of my cider without any of us knowing. We first realized this when Chris disappeared, we thought he must of gone to pee. Until, an hour later when I looked around and he wasn't there. We starting looking for him (all of 3 seconds) when we found him collapsed over someones tent face down. We tried picking him up and putting him in the tent since it was raining quite heavily but he kept shouting "Fuck off and come back in 10 minutes". We then tried later but all we got then was "Just give me my sleeping bag". Well, I got pissed off and decided just to leave him there if he didn't want our help. Funny. As.

1. Music (Well, duh!)

The music was amazing. Lostprophets, Arctic Monkeys, Vampire Weekend, Deftones, Kaiser Chiefs, Passion Pit, Yeah Yeah Yeah's, Bloc Party, Maximo Park, The Prodigy, Ian Brown, Eagles of Death Metal, Kings of Leon and THEM CROOKED VULTURES.

Enough Said.

See you at the next post.

I felt guilty once, but she woke up half way through!

A new post?!?!?!?

Nope, sorry to burst your bubble. I'm just too EXCITED to post a full time-consuming message because I'm about to go to Leeds festival! But, expect a review of the festival when I get back! While I'm away, feel free to enjoy this picture:



Now.....

That's where the fourth hole is, Right there!. Back of the Knee.

With the sudden spout of cold weather, I thought that I would write a blog which is the equivalent of a open fire, blanket and a cup of tea (or whatever your preferred hot beverage is).

Rather than have loads of pictures in my blog, I'll add photos to my Flickr account frequently so keep a look out.

Not much has changed at Manorgate, a couple of nights out and work but I think that a house party or another night out should be on the cards. With the recent flourish of games, I think I've got enough of them to keep me occupied.

Season 4 of Heroes has really perked up my interest in the show since it has become alot easier to follow. Season 3 was confusing at certain points due to the amount of different storylines it tried to follow which broke the continuity that the show had in season's 1 and 2. I would definitely recommended watching Heroes season 4 when it's on the BBC.

Bring on Sunday!

She said that there was no way!

Well, this has been overdue as my last post was in November 08. So with this update, we should see other blogger user update his blog *cough* MATT *cough*. Since my last post - a lot has happend.

1.) Matt has moved out of Manorgate and Charlie and Martin to Follow.

This is a big one. Manorgate's orginal Founding Members are moving out leaving just me as the original surviving member living here. When I think back at the experiences that I've had with these friends - Amsterdam, Me and Matt's Great British Summer, many house parties and numerous road trips have been the best experiences I've ever had and I would like to thank them.

2.) Moving into Christ Church House

With this move, it gives me the chance to expand my horizions as it will become clear later on in the blog. Bigger room, smaller size house and better layout will make it a better location for my final year and the chance for more experiences. Plus more space for my TV :P

3.) Drum Kit

Ever since buying Rock Band, I always wanted to learn to play the drums and now that the new house I'm moving into has some extra space in the basement, this gives me the practise space I've always wanted.

4.) Rock Band Challenge - 50 FC's

8 so far

I want a glass of better room!

After recent attempts to clean my humble abode, I decided that a mid-week day off should be used productively. What ensued was the piling of rubbish, then clean the area where the rubbish was, move pile, clean the area etc until the aforementioned rubbish was out of the room. Here are the obligratory before and after shots:

WOW, what an interesting day!

O Crone!

To 'break in' a copy of Rock Band 2, it requires two key elements:


1. A large group of people
2. Copious amounts of Alcohol


With a large array of songs to be unlocked, we carried on late into the night - our eyes bloodshot and fingers aching. Here is the evidence:
