trade mix CDs
there's not enough of this going on anymore 3 years ago

I made a drunken pact with a friend to exchange a mix of Australian stuff and the sort of kooky electro that I like for what he enthusiastically called a “death metal and grindcore primer”. I’m not sure if I really want that sort of priming but I’ll listen to it at least once.

Quit my job (read all 2 entries…)
April the 19th... 3 years ago

Will (tentatively) be my last day in this job, although I haven’t actually checked if that’s a weekend or not. If it is, I’m even closer to my last day.

I was thinking that I might try to swing some sort of transfer deal when I move to London, but now I just want to get out of this company…

build a bike (read all 2 entries…)
police auction coming up... 3 years ago

I’ve been to one of these before and I managed to score an old road bike (now sadly perished) for pennies. eBay is just seeming like a hassle for something so big.
