"I feel like C.C. Baxter in Wilder's 'Apartment',
That particular arrangement just came out of the blue
And who was it who sang 'I know that you love one
So why can't you love two?'
I was in full-time education when I got scared of the future
And I've only got a job so I don't disappoint my mother
It's like I've painted myself into a social corner
Well, that's what happens when you listen to
Saint Scott Walker
On headphones
On the bus.
What about us? What about us?
My friends come round and they ask me 'What about us?'
My friends come round and they ask me 'What about us?'
You know that I, I don't kid myself about happy endings
I'm too old for all that now
But you don't have to worry that much about the future
And it's not as if you ever did before
Because you'll always have everything just as you want it
And there'll always be a phone to ring at three in the morning
And you'll always have someone who'll drive you home
Yes, you'll always have someone, someone to drive you home.
Someone to drive you home."

^I saw them live a few years ago. They were really good.

Chris Moyles announced that he's stepping down from the Radio 1 breakfast show in September.

He's a good presenter, his show runs smoothly enough and the strings are well hidden. He's occassionally witty and clever, and always able to think and act and create within seconds, so he's undoubtedly talented compared to the other clapping goons Radio 1 have filling their daytime slots.

However, his team are a bunch of snotty sycophants with the collective personality of a wooden desk. The show without them would be much better, but obviously not as whacky, or crazy, or whatever they're going for in the mornings. Moyles is also too old for the age he pretends to cater for, but that's the case for all of the BBC really.

I never really heard much on Chris Moyles as I hardly ever listened to Radio one. Sounds like a good thing I didn't.

So what's UK gafs favourite British films here, if they've got to pick five that stand out for them.

1: From Russia with love
2: Children of men
3: Lawrence of Arabia.
4: 28 days later
5: The ipcress file

Those are five films I can easily think of that I can watch over and over again in my life time without a doubt.

My dad loves Zulu. I have no idea how many times he's seen it but whenever its on he just sits back and stares at that TV screen all day. I've only seen bits and pieces of it.


In other news, Chumbawamba are no more.

Vied for a tag related to cocks, so here it is.
I'm not gonna try to make a top 5 because I'd just keep constantly changing my mind.

But The Italian Job would be in there.

Are they still alive? I remember listening to them when I was filing for work experience when I was a kid, and they played William Orbit's Strange Cargo, on Radio 1. That wouldn't fly in this day.

My mum wants a new phone and has been looking at budget smart phones. She's narrowed it down to HTC Desire C or Samsung Galaxy Ace. Any idea which is the better phone?
