Anything that encourages young people to get tested and treated is categorically not a waste of taxpayer money.

Sitting in car baked yesterday I noticed were all tagged like fucking animals (reg plates). Also hitting Wetherspoons. today with a few fiends this time to get wasted. Going to get a greesy kabab at the end of the session. Also lol going to keep playing my arms 2 oa story line with a good drink in me. (that will be fun).
I also noticed while in the car that the entire system is a chain and of there's one weak link on the chains life's are lost and chaos insures.

Was this for a particular purpose or just for the giggles?
In other news, Happy Friday BritGaffers!
I'm off to a hen night tonight, basically the girl organising is having everyone over to her house and has invited a beautitian over to give us all treatments. I've gone for the spray tan. I'd like to point out that I am so not the beauty therapy type of girl, I rarely do my nails, doing my hair means brushing it, I never wear make up day to day only when I go out, and apart from naturally tanning on holiday (which rarely happens because I am extremely pale and more likely to burn) I've never had a fake tan or sunbed or anything. This will be an interesting experiment to say the least. Depending on the results there may be pictures later.
I'm fine with my looks thanks. Apart from a single fucking zit that appeared on the side of my forehead, I blame the pizza I had the night before. It's nearly gone now.
Speaking of looks my awesome new Tshirt will be getting worn tonight. A mix of pink floyds dark side of the moon/80s cyberpunk going on with it. Also nice short sleeves out my muscles into full display.
Musha don't forget before and after pics. I want to put my faketan theory to the test.

It's a rare event that I agree with Kentpaul, but I guess it's a hen night so what's to be expected?
It's funny as in a couple of weeks the orange glow will be coming to Scotland..!
I watched them all just now!
I started youtubing Eurythmics and decided I'd collect all these songs together so I could stop youtubing them.

Time very well spent. The missus made a Spotify playlist of '80s-o-rama' and it gets so much play. Love some 80s pop.

GAF is pretty boring today. It's making my work day go even slower.
Yeah, I get those days too. When you just look at the topic list and think "come on people, entertain me!".
I think there are other websites out there for filling those gaps but I can't be arsed to go and find out. My internet is limited to 'GAF' and 'Naked Ladies'.

Is there a way to watch live US telly from then UK?
I've been intrigued by the idea for as long as I can remember. Their TV is so odd, I would like to see it unfold, with all the weirdly hectoring ads and superfast voiceovers, and the shows so shitty that nobody would export them. I know you can watch the UK freeview channels online, is there a similar doohickey for the states?

Everyone is in the pub apart from me and one other lady. I have no work of importance to do. I am mindlessly trawling the internet bored out of my skull. I think I may be about to fall asleep at my desk.
WAKE UP GAF
And keep me awake while you're at it!
Anyone wanna play 20 questions or something?

I'm trying to come up with a punchline. BUT JUST CAN'T.
And small update. Went to Salford yesterday, didn't die. Media City is impressive in that it's all shiny but then it's essentially surrounded by a shithhole. Got a photo with a TARDIS and had a nice meal so was good.
GF is off to see her parents for the weekend. HOME ALONE. I now feel like I can't be arsed to take care of myself and cook as normal and should just order pizza. And that 5 minute walk to Tesco? Involves getting dressed.
And I might have now finished uni, but I'm not giving up the student lifestyle just yet.

Haha. I've got a little bit of time before having to go full time in to stuff, doing part time stuff freelance and bits and bobs at the uni. Having a little break for the first real time in two and a half years is quite nice.

Good man! always best to have a little break before taking the big leap. Wished i took a year between the last year of uni and first year of full-time work. Im kinda making up for it by at least going on holiday twice a year.
This still isn't finished, will add more and shuffle it around as I go. Had a 3 song limit on artists who had a few hits, which Is why I'm yet to add MJ. Most electro-ey pop stuff, bit off cheese, etc.

You should work for Eagle Radio, the local radio in Surrey. That read likes their daily playlist, give or take a couple of actually good songs.
I hate them
I'm now sitting in my office, listening to the 2000-song mix that I made from my record collection, it makes 7 years of listening to shite in my old office worth it. Now I have control of the sound! muhahaha! No more shitty 80s music for me
Holy fuck I have NO Duran Duran on here, how did I miss that?
I'm gonna add Rio and Girls On Film though.
Not so sure about Roxette

You can't have Spandau Ballet and then squirm at the idea of Roxette. All or nothing!

you're welcome. I noticed the lack of Duran Duran but decided to be polite and not point it out.
Dude, Roxette were like the poor man's Blondie. So if Blondie is on there then you just gotta!
Also, Europe were the poor man's Guns 'N' Roses yet I still prefer Europe over GNR.
Was Ace of Base 80s? "All That She Wants" does sound 80s. hmm....

No Ace of Base were early nineties.

Changing gears I'm somewhat fine with, but starting/stopping/turning just feel incredibly alien to me at the moment. I'm especially having trouble feeding the wheel back to the neutral position.
Is it normal to not really enjoy your first lesson? I really want to know how to drive, but the whole experience just left me even more nervous/daunted than before.
Whether or not she said it for encouragement, she did say I was starting to learn faster than most people, and that I'd probably not need the average amount of lessons.

Feeding the wheel, in my opinion, is a nightmare and feels completely unnatural. I'd say the vast majority of people never do it after they pass their test. I palm steer all the time and it's just 100% easier and more comfortable. Obviously instructors will tell you it's unsafe but I can't ever recall getting in to trouble steering this way. Also, it's easy and fast to stick an extra hand on the wheel if need be.
It will all come to you eventually.
Good luck.
Yup, I don't. Sometimes I still do it without thinking and realise "wtf did I do that for? There's no instructor next to me"
