Coming up on the clock channel, 7'oclock!

"So whats the weather like Ollie?"

"It gona RAIN!"

So still looking for a new role with my consultancy/whatevertheycallthemselves. My contract with them ends in January and ive pretty much one foot out the door unless they come up with something amazing for me before Xmas that I cant say no to. Its gonna be a poor xmas, all the lads will be away travelling so it should be a bit cheaper on the drink front but then again probably not.

My housemate came back with a good weekend story for me. He went down to see his folks who live down in 'allo my lover' country. Bandit country I suppose we would call it in Ireland. Anyway boys meets girl blah blah blah. Stays over at his folks place, Wills trying to sneak her out the door the next morning and drop her home but of course bumps into his mum who makes her some breakfast and then tells her she has to stay for Sunday Roast.

So hes stuck in the middle of nowwhere with this girl, about a half hours drive to civilisation and lets just say he forgot to wrap his meat the night before and she needs to get to the nearest boots very quickly. SO they finally find one thats open go in and he's abit clueless about the whole situation, apparently its not like just going up to the counter and getting some paracetmol. Appointment to the doctor or nurse or some 16 year old with a name badge he didnt seem to sure he stayed in the waiting room. And strangely enough he told me the anti-baby waiting room was located in the baby section in boots and he was having a major head fuck!

Funny spam fuckin ad

Ok everyone knows those horrible mails you get and damn google ads. Well what ever genius put up this pic got it the wrong way round. I havent been able to find it since but basically it was one of those weight loss ads and they had the photos the wrong way round. So instead of turning into a toned stud after 30 days you had a beer belly, best pill ever!

Better to burn out or fade away

So on a good note the return of the Big Bang Theory was fuckin awesome unlike the return of Peep Show which hit its peak two seasons ago and should have disappeared after the last episode of Season 4 when Mark and Sophie had their big wedding disaster which left Mark and Jeremy back living together. The way they have tried to stretch the show since has been poor and unimaginative and not in tone with the first four series. Of course their is still the occassional funny moment but their so few and far between I would rather be watching reruns of season 1-4.

When should the producers pull the plug on a show or are they just concerned with easy series stocking fillers for Xmas. I think strangely enough the one channel that bas managed their shows very cleverly is the BBC. Did you know their has been 81 episodes of Prison Break compared to 64 episodes of Only fools and Horses. The original and best The Office had two series consisting of 6 episodes and a two part Xmas Special one year, so 14 episodes in total. Its American not funny version is currently on episode 101.

Another example is the Royle Family, which I still watch anytime I see it on UK gold. It was a wonderful show about a working class family and easily my favourite ktchen sink drama. It had a total of 22 episodes, wheres for example Roseanne went on for eleven years where in season 2 it was the top rated show in america and by its last season was scraping into the top 50.

Ive no idea why the BBC are less guilty or draw the series to a conclusion alot sooner than its US counterparts and even Channel four to a lesser extent which has let Shameless and Peep Show go into a bit of a freefall. But I would like some answers on a postcard.

Back with a Bang a very Big Bang Theory actually!

So its been two months since I have blogged, basically the same amount of time I have been living in LandanNNN! It rocks BTW!

Im still on the hunt for a new contract which is getting increasingly frustrating but I think I should get something in the next few weeks hopefully.

Despite the lack of work, I have been really enjoying London. My mate has very kindly put me up for the last two months and its been awesome. Still havent really done much or seen much in London apart from the Irish bar across the street. Yes their is an Irish bar across the street from my flat, I could hit it with a coin from my bedroom window.

Its actually quite nice living in an area in England that is full of irish people, its like little Ireland. And its surprising that although some of the folk you meet in the bar havent been home in over 10 years that they still havent lost their accent.

Their was a trad band on a few weeks back and they played the national anthem and my mate didnt know what it was and continued playing pool with a friend of ours. It didnt go down too well, but I thought it was hilarious and my friend couldnt stop apologising to me. Of course somehow had to have a go at him about it. MUPPETS!

Few things I dont like about London

1. When the tube is horribly full and you get someones pit in your face.
2. The amount of degenerates who ask you for money around my area.
3. The way no one talks on the tube.
4. The plastic paddy brigade
5. New PaddysInEngland telling me different accounts of how bad things are back home.


The Big Bang Theory season 3 episode 1 aired in the states last night, cant wait to get home and get on piratebay AHOY!

My viewing pleasure

Since I can almost quote "The Big Bang Theory" line for line it was time for something new or time for a return to a blast from the past. A show that I had well and truly forgotten about but one which I loved watching while I grew up. Any ideas? Samantha Janus was in it and the ginger haired guy and the guy who wouldn't leave the house. It was called Game on and I remember at the time of its airing I was 11 or 12 and fell deeply in love with Ms Janus. I never made the connection that this was the woman who has been on eastenders for the last two years. Shes just not as adorable hot anymore. I still would though.

Game on was a bit of a throwback to Friends, the three 20 something year olds it revolved around were complete fuck ups and their lives went from one disaster to a next.


Check out Game on at surfthechannel, all three series are their for your viewing pleasure.
