Hello. Sorry I haven't been around so much - haven't had much to say if truth be told - not that I have much to say today, just thought I should pop in and say hello. I have done that already, look, right at the beginning...see?
As part of my job I have to go to companies and talk to them about how they give to charity - normally it is quite a dull rota of large companies, big lawyers, all suits, no personality and Molten & Brown in the toilets. Yesterday however, was a cool day - I had to go to Channel 4 - which is quite cool in itself. Inside is exactly how you would imagine - lots of cool kids in jeans and designer trainers/t-shirts walking around with clip boards and £100 haircuts. What was funny though, was that while I was waiting in reception, I was approached by a lovely blonde lady who innocently asked "are you here for the bi-weekly T4 Music meeting?" I really really wanted to say yes. Imagine what I could have done!! "All these guitars and angst are all well and good, where is Cliff Richard? Where is Status Quo? Rolf Harris for God's sake - the man is opening Glastonbury this year - it's about time we gave him a half hour special. We need to look back to go forward; Jive Bunny, Pepsi & Shirley, T'Pau, The Bangles, our audience needs to be educated" (never a truer word imaginarily spoken in jest). Eventually though I went to my real meeting instead, which was still nice, though not as potentially upsetting for the viewing public...
I am going camping soon! Not just Glastonbury - but as a kind of training run, I am attending a gathering of 40 or so like minded silly arses in the middle of Devon, where we dress up in suits and wellies and eat, drink and be merry - all for charity of course. How marvellous.
Right - hope you lot are happy - I am late for work. See you soon (maybe).
