Favourite New Albums

OK… here we go - an insight into my personality… this could almost become an online diary…

In line with my new years resolution to make this blog more about me !! In fact tonight I was once again reminded on about one of those things that I think is most important in life - friendship… and whilst I am talking about making my blog about me, I will slightly divert from the title of this blog. and talk about tonight and my thoughts on friendship.

I have a number of aquaintances and friends… I love being with other people… I know some of you out there will prefer solitude… but I happen to love being around people. That (as with everything in life) has ups and downs… but once you get to know me - it can lead to a happy path… if you need to talk, eat, drink or laugh I am pretty happy to work plans around organising that… I will confess that it has become more difficult with my little son… as I do love spending time with him… however tonight I have come home pretty happy - all due to the company of a friend…

We went for a drink after work. Big deal you might think… but although it was only one drink… after a crappy day we were able to relax and laugh a little… put life into perspective… and organise grabbing something to eat next week. That was it - but it turned my day from being crappy and going home slightly downbeat into one that was really quite good, getting home quite upbeat, turning on the music and relaxing with a glass of wine… total bliss… friends / aquaintances get a tick in my book… I will talk more about friends / aquaintances / collegues / manking etc another time… but for now I just want to share that experience with you…

Now back to the title of my blog… three albums this year that I have bought and love

1. Killers - Sams Town 9/10

2. The Fratellis - Costello Music 9/10

3. Klaxons - Myths of The Near Future 8/10

Charity fundraiser… well enough to scare me…

It is 2007… and being a very lucky chap, I have started to make a number of plans for the year.

 

One of this is to raise some money for charity… totally selfless act… well not quite… I have always fancied jumping out of a plane… so why not use the excuse to pester friend / collegues / aquaintances etc for a charitable contribution… an excuss for me to enjoy something, whilst raising money for an incredible cause… watch this space for more….

Having Fun !!!

It has been a while since I last left a blog entry… and part of that has been because I have been so busy. The other reason has been because I was searching for my blog to be something different. What do I mean - well, I was trying to make my blog focussed like http://queenofsky.journalspace.com/ - which I am glad to see is still running strongly… P.S. if you have a blog then please let me know and I’ll add a link to it (provided it is not too intense)… but in trying to make my blog too focussed, I ended up trying to hard and finding it too much of a burden. So it is a new year… what is install ?

 

1. Well maybe not number 1… but I want to take control of my blog and just add what I like - when I like… the good, the bad and the ugly !!! It is about ME… thats what makes it unique… I have been doing this on and off for about 18 months… and so far it is all fairly boring… can’t promise it’ll suddenly become exciting, but I want it to be about me… there maybe some boring stuff… but on the whole I lead a fairly unique life… I have travelled much of the world, dated a great number of young ladies, been married and divorced, set up businesses, run a dot.com, bought and sold land, had a little baby boy… all by the age of 30… and you know what - I have thoroughly enjoyed ever minute of it… good and bad… so here is too life… happy new year to you all - may you all love life and have a happy 2007!!!

 

2. Keep smiling… as Robin Williams once said ‘We are all born with a little madness, the key is to hang on to it’
