That's gotta hurt

Had a poor half game in goal today for the Essex Wanderers against bottom-of-the-league Sporting Goujon. I don't know if their name is supposed to be ironic, but a vicious tackle shortly after the break saw one of our defenders going off in an Ambulance with two broken bones in his leg. The game was stopped and I'm not sure what will happen next as far as the points go. The website just says 'match postponed', along with our last three fixtures! Forget LLDWW, it's more like PPPPL…

I've just managed to get the photos that I took from my Leave of Absence spent in Lancaster posted. Please let me know your comments using the new comment-adding and rating options available when viewing images. No proper reason for the delay except laziness and forgetfulness.

Two Hour Radio Show…

Hard at work on my new radio slot – 9 til 11 pm Dance Show on a Saturday night. Nice. Except that it will be too late to go out afterwards. I have work at 10 tomorrow morning, anyway. Luckily for me, no-one will be listening in if it all goes pear shaped (or more appropriately, Pete Tong).

Had a late one last night – going to a late-license pub and then a house party – getting home at about 3:30… Mind you, didn’t get up til 2 pm today with accompaniment to our new flatmate: a drum kit!

Back Home (?)

Well I arrived back in Lancaster on Sunday afternoon to another new (and empty) house. I came back to uni early to get on with the Bailrigg FM website, but when I got here, the computer that I would have done the site on is buggered. It is in need of a new (and not easy to get hold of) motherboard. Which is quite irritating.

Feels like my whole journey up here was wasted. And I’ve gotta go back home tomorrow for a family thing on Thursday. I really do have the worst luck. Bloody Murphy’s Law has been annoying me for weeks.

At least I’ve got a job in the new JD Wetherspoon pub Sir Richard Owen opening here next week (where Springs nightclub used to be), but I can only make a couple of days training. Which they weren’t too happy about…

Back Home

I somehow managed to get back home today… I was seconds away from missing the train from Lancaster Station – cheers, Vicki!

Just got back from a nice meal in Southend, and realised that I’m starting my new job tomorrow At least it isn’t an early start…

Mini-extrav

The Grizedale Mini-Extrav went well on Sunday, with Crazy Dave and I helping to set up and judge the Red Bull DJ comp. The crowd seemed to have a great time, and it looks as though it’ll be going ahead again next year…

End of Year

Marc — Tue, 26 Jun 2001 14:12:26 +0000

Well, the time has come to say goodbye to Lancaster University for 3 months. The first year has gone SO quickly, you really don’t understand! Living off-campus next year which will be a different experience completely! Home tomorrow, start work on Sunday…
