Bottom Of The Barrel, Ooo A Penny

Yes, I'm back and comfortably unemployed... I say comfortably, I actually mean desperately scrambling for a job as we speak. (And by "desperately scrambling" I mean... aiming for one job at a time...) I'm no longer in college as some of you may have heard but I haven't been kicked out the house so things look up in a weird way. (Unlike pigs, they can't look up at all.) I'm still doing the voluntary placement at Hillhead Primary, always fun, though I forgot it was Red Nose Day and am currently not wearing anything red. (Blushing doesn't count, apparently.)
On to further brighter news (oh yes, I did just say brighter) I've been going out with Kerry for two and a half months now, though I do have to check the calender regularly to see if it has been that long. (Don't scoff "Two and a half months", we're all surprised she's gone out with me for so long.)
Ladies and Gentlemen, Dr Gavin Mango wishes you a very fine Red Nose Day.

New Year... You Can Have It Happy If You Want?

Yo there, as it's a new year and all I thought I would post on this thing and then swallow a jar of honey. (What can I say, I'm in a good mood.)
General: Sooo, last year was alright, wasn't it... no, you're right, it was shite, but at least I got a laugh or two. Of course there was the usual drama, someones life was temporarily ruined and cunts started dancing on the band wagon. I got annoyed, you got annoyed, it was hardly the best start to a year for some. I did, however, have a fantastic time going out with Ais, whom I do believe is my best friend, though it would help if she stopped trying kill me... is she trying to tell me something?
Social: The end of the year had a kind of a down note to it though, for me anyway, though my social life seems to have picked up where my "sad-loner" life left off. No-one can say I'm complaining about that. In other news I have made an abundance of new friends, they are as follows... in chronological order:
Bo,
Dean,
Liam,
Kerry. (Yes, for me that is an abundance.)
Dave has taken on the title of "Bastard Dave", for those who don't already know or weren't intelligent enough to guess, Harrison finally got a mobile, which is just another means for him not to contact us with.
Romance: Yes, it's true folks, for those of you who don't read the scandal pages and go for more quality reading, Ais and Harrison are going out, I repeat, they are going out. I know, I know, this is like finding out Hitler was Santa in disguise but you're all going to have to get over it eventually. I myself am going out with Kerry, who most of you don't know, which is all the more sadder for you.
Culture: I have started writing a... let's call it a book so I have something to aspire to, shall we. I have plans for another story, I like writing, nuff said. Harrison has introduced me to more stand-ups than I can shake a rubber chicken at and most of them seem to be of a funny disposition. I'm still adding more books to my "Yeah, I'm Going To Read It But Can't Be Bothered Right Now" pile... that situation is pretty grim.
Round-Up: Last year was overly shite for most of the people I know, for me it was verging closer to good, kinda... This year has the potential to be a good year, it's started off pretty well for most people I hang about with, except for the occasional illness and headache.

Ladies and gentlemen, Dr Gavin Mango wishes you a good year.
