Fantastic feeling!
Just a quick check in from the phone.
Had a brilliant day, a lot of thoughts going through my tiny little pimple head haha.
Started out a bit crap, head was not with it but followed my boss down to the window tint shop and all felt good. Maybe fresh air is the key to a cracking mood.
Coffee and a computer and on it like sonoiiic. Adverts going up, got a website coming together which I am super excited about. Got a few cars about us at the moment. Need to go by the end of the month. 2 x DBS, Overfinch Vogue and 4.4 Vogue.
Anyway, throughout the day I was thinking that even though I am on basic wage and can work silly times, how lucky I am. How happy I am. The things I do and the people I know. Money does not hold me back from having a good time. Riding through stingy nettles though might haha.
Anyway dragged a mate out. Picked up his bike from Halfords. Next thing you know we are cruising up the riverbank and tearing it up.
BRAAAAKKKEEEEE
Mam needs a lift? Blinking heck. Dragged me bum home to get her to work. BUT, not until I stretched ready for footie! 9:00 kick off!!
Had a great game, great team work and a fab set of guys. Tanks, saves, volleys, sean and James somehow spending more time on the floor than most.
But at the end of the day we felt better about ourselves. And the shower and cool bed await!
Goodnight and God bless all x

Dutch Railway Installs a Slide To Get To The Train
It’s officially called a ‘transfer accelerator’ by Dutch railway maintenance company ProRail, but everyone else would say it’s a slide. An awesome slide. Installed next to a stairway at the newly renovated railway station Overvecht in the city of Utrecht, the slide offers travellers the opportunity to quickly reach the railway tracks when they’re in a hurry.

Love <3 - Friends - Cracking Times
Good evening / morning,
After a long and stressful few months I am starting to reap the rewards from what I have working hard towards. My dream job, doing what I “Love”.
Love being a VERY strong word and part of a topic of this evenings Kingdom Experiment. Love does not just relate to my job, but also to an amazing bunch of people who I have now had the chance to meet and chill out with.
Now I don’t believe in God as such, I think there is something there, I just need to see it to believe it. BUT, my dearest of friends Edward Hodge has introduced me this group of very passionate Christians. To know them just as Christians would be rude, because they are now my friends whom I adore very much.
Meetings like Kingdom Experiment every Wednesday evening, the previous Hope event and even just social gatherings seem to be an absolute release. Its electrifying the debates that occur yet, I don’t interact much because I know far to little on Christianity to even hold a debate. But as the old saying goes “you learn something new everyday”.
Some of the questions I did not expect, but got asked when I met some of these guys were:
“What Church do you go to”
“What are your views on Christianity”
“Do you believe in God?”Well these questions sometimes don’t go down well when you answer:
“I don’t got to Church”
“I’m all for people believing in what they believe, but until I see something I can’t say I believe”BUT & AGAIN I stress BUT this was not frowned upon within the group. Which obviously made me quite comfortable and happy.
People with different backgrounds, interests and morals… actually accepting you for who you are. Sharing there experiences with you and listening to some of the stories I find is absolutley amazing.
Slowly I feel I have become apart of this group and, I am thankful for whatever it was that put me on this course to happiness (there is another descriptive word I am trying to think of but its to late in the day).
Basically what I am trying to say is I am happy with my situation I feel I have found a group of people who are certainly worth all the time and more. Ed, Dai, Jake, Evie, Dan, Abi, Sarah, Ben, James and plenty more.
Sounds like a load of waffle but I am verrrrrrrrrry tired and going to sleep now! … Peace out y’all and have safe times tomorrow!

BBQ & Ashleys
Rock up in the middle of the country side with nothing but shorts and a t-shirt pretty brave would say? Nah
The jist of the occasion is a friend of friends had a BBQ and is disappearing for a little while for a good cause shall we say. So had different families, kids and good mates all around to show the love! Love was shown in FIREBALL! The game that just sets the bar above the rest!Excellent food prepared including big juicy steaks, drumsticks and burgers yum yum. Thank you Chef, you are the king! Oh what’s that? Kingpin… hmm we won’t say who that was ahaha! And KINGPINS are called KINGPINS because, there favourite sport was ofcourse BOWLING! waayyyy.
Anyway, fire ball, teen challenge bus which was actually just parked up available to us, food and drinks supplied was a fun filled adventure and thoroughly enjoyed it.Seeing as the kids all left then it got a bit more grown up there after with, mixed joking of all kinds, Edd’s phone being taken and him making friends with many many many people called Omar! Yes Omar. Edd are you trying to tell us something butty?
Double concentrate, more mixed jokes and just general banter made the remainder of the night a blinking cracker! Where would I be now without the good mates I got now!
Best of luck Ashley on the travels and safe journey to and from destination, even though I will see you before you go.
Ed, Dai, Jake, Evie, Grant, Ben, Tom, Leafy?… Small people, crazy people, and dogs! Don’t forget the dogs.
Goodnight you bunch of nutters,

Today… 13/06/2011
Not been feeling top top to be honest. It was one of those rare days where I have woken up and thought nah! I don’t want to get up. Lack lustre, Idol, Daunting day. I probably am making sound a little worse than what it was.
I thoroughly enjoy my work of blabbering on about vehicles that I could never afford. But my motivation does say one day I will buy a car like a Ferrari because that is what I want. Besides the point, it felt like I hit a stonewall with work. Had bad food, had the least productive day in the 6 and a half months I have been there.Got home and felt drained, didn’t like what I was eating again, Ed came over and made me happy and played guitar and then off to football, listening to you’d never have guessed, chase & status and nero.
15 minutes into football if that I felt like I had been ripped of energy, struggling to run, just a down trodden game for me, it was eventful but effortless on my part.
I am stuck here typing this passage yet I should be in bed, I think priorities are a slight bit “wonky” haha!
Anyway moan/rant/effortless attempt at posting something constructive failed over.Goodnight & Good day all for tomorrow!

Chase & Status Album
Yehawww!
Along with Pendulum - Hold Your Colour I have found another quality driving album.The songs are well put together, the sounds are fantastic, one of my favourites has to be the shuffling sound in Dizzy Rascal’s - Heavy! … Like a clap/shuffle effect it just fits and gets you going.
Of course End Credits with Plan B is another fantastic tune, and if you played F1 2010 then you would have heard that song definitely.
But my favorite song on the “No More Idols” album by far is:
“Time” - Chase & Status Feat. Delilah.If you can find the time,
To give your love to me,
I will wait for you,
If that’s all you need
Time, Time…
If you can find the time,
Time, Time…
If ever your free,
Just drop me a line,
And tell me where you’ll be,
I’ll be by here,
(If you can find the time)
Just be sincere,
(If you can find the time)
I’ll wait for you,
(But if I can’t find the time)
Then cut me loose!‘Cos I don’t have the time,
And I don’t have the patience,
What do you take me for?
Why am I still waiting,
‘Cos while you decide,
I’m f****** suffocating,
‘Cos if you can’t find the time,
My bleeding heart won’t make it x2If you can find the time,
To give your love to me,
Just drop me a line,
And tell me where you’ll be,
I’ll be right here,
(if you can find the time)
Just be sincere…
‘Cos I don’t have the time,
And I don’t have no patience
What do you take me for?
Why am I still waiting?
‘Cos while you decide,
I’m f****** suffocating,
‘Cos if you can’t find the time,
My bleeding heart won’t make it!
I’ll be right here,
(If you can’t find the time,
Just be sincere
(If you cant find the time)
I’ll… I’ll wait for you,
(But if you can’t find the time)
Then cut me loose…
‘Cos I don’t have the time,
And I don’t have the patience,
What do you take me for?
Why am I still waiting,
‘Cos while you decide,
I’m f****** suffocating,
‘Cos if you can’t find the time,
My bleeding heart won’t make it.. x3Phenomenal! I could put the song on repeat and just go to sleep with it, but it gets me going on a drive. The song is just so well put together, lyrically ok its very basic, but tell’s you how it is.
A sublime album for me, one that goes in my favourites and will stay there for a long while.
Well done Chase & Status! And a big thank you to the Feats. on that album.
Lets hope next album will be as good if it comes along!
Ok so tonight I am off to a youth club to assist where needed and just have a little bit of fun. See you guys later on! Heck may even have a quick cruise afterwards as well. This time without Father calling me pished as a fluff head haha!
Peace out y’all! -
Quiz my Ass!!
If you hadnt of guessed from the title a large population of st pauls turned up for a quiz! £2.50!! This came with a raffle, cause joking and hysteria over the minor things hehe…
In direct competition with Agatha Quiz Me - rubbish name we set out to show these people how it was done.
Did we do this? Hahaha …
No.
But what we did do is have a tremendous time and laughed pretty much all the way through!
Up until the point my silly father called because he was in dire straights with something in Llandow I was having a good time… But these things happen.
You know, even if I have only met some these people a handful of times I have never felt so happy in being around them.
I mean Edward my absolute best buddy helps me through everything!! A legend a true friend through thick and thin. 18 years and counting. Just lay off Jakes mam… Please =P
Dai & Jake.. I mean its the theological laurel and hardy. Comedy duo with a huge christian belief. Humble cause jokers!
Ben never really got to know him in the past but again a legend who speaks his mind and has an absolute blast. One thing I will remember and giggle about Ben is the videos on Joels phone. Fantastic!
Evie really has surprised me, a mature lady considering her age. A absolute cracker of a girl! Makes me giggle at her jokes going wrong and outragiously funny comments! Considering I have not known Evie long I can see her being a regular. I hope this was proper english for you by the way.
There are plenty others including Cat, James, Grant, Dan, Amy and more who are amazing people.
Thank you for the good, bad and ugly and let us hope and pray for more of these times but lets lay off the Maccy D’s aye haha.
Goodnight and God Bless!
p.s I have come full swing back around to what I used to say years ago
“Friends are for life, not just for Christmas”
