Drive was so good, it was brilliant because it jumped from moments of sweet romantic looks to gory eye-ball-gouging-with-a-fork-blood-splattering action, and it worked. The soundtrack was incredible and created a tone which could have been lost with the usual generic “action” soundtrack of bassy drivel.

“I think housework is far more tiring and frightening than hunting is, no comparison, and yet after hunting we had eggs for tea and were made to rest for hours, but after housework people expect one to go on just as if nothing special had happened.”

I was lucky enough to see this at the Roundhouse, I had almost forgotten how mindblowingly insane the show was, both for my peepers and my lug ‘oles. I would love to see it again.

BAD DRIVING FASHION MATHS

As a form of further flagellation for stupidly stopping my car in a jagged line area, yeah, I know stupid. I was letting out a super cool DJ from the back seat sure don’t worry about it.

I had to pay out a whopping £65. Boo. As a reminder to myself of how stupid this was I’m going to do a wee little post about the things I could have potentially got with that money. I’m also v jealous of my pal because she has just bought an entire new outfit. Sigh. *flagellate flagellate*- what a great word, sounds a bit too kinky for a post at 8.45 on a Friday morning, but ANYHOOOO

Whats not to love about these, apart from how ridiculously big the picture is. It would also fill a flat shoe hole in my life.

Thats right, a rack for all my new shoes. Also as the shitty Argos one broke, Boyf and I have taken to just stacking them in our ridiculously small room. This friends seems to be the space saving equivalent of Mary Poppins Bag…All for a measly £59. Lambeth council I hope you’re happy.

This would slot very nicely into my autumn winter wardrobe, which I am thinking about bringing up to London from home. Very nicely indeed.

I could have ~~unlikely but still could have~~ technically afforded a facial,

getting my eyelashes tinted,

getting my nails done.

SIGH

GAHHHH

So, readers (all 3 of you) what have we learnt…

1. Don’t drive Dj’s around, it only leads to monetary punishment

2. Don’t be stupid and remember everything you learnt for your theory test

3. In London they WILL get you for everything they possibly can, so don’t think they wont, because this came TWO WHOLE MONTHS after the event.

SPR007 : AlunaGeorge - You Know You Like It by super

One of the best singles of the summer The Sunday Times

That idea of an indie band using the tropes and techniques of R&B, the stuttering rhythms and itchy glitchiness of 2-step, in tandem with a proper pop song…

““Why the obsession with trainers? Trainers are shit. You stick them on your feet and walk around for a while ‘til they go out of fashion. Whoopie doo. Yes, I know they’re also status symbols, but anyone who tries to impress others with their shoe choice is a dismally pathetic character indeed – and anyone genuinely impressed by said footwear has all the soaring spirit of a punnet of moss. There’s no life to be found in “look at my shoes”. There just isn’t.””
