Don’t worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum
So I’m cleaning my car whilst listening to Band of Horses, maybe a little bit too loudly, but I figured this doesn’t matter because I live in Felixstowe, a quiet town, so no ones going to spot me. Wrong. I live near the bloody school and unimpressed chavs were popping to the chip shop for their … Read more
Edinburgh Fringe The Second And My Outrageous Life At Home
Evening. Well, the whole promising a much more consistent blog thing went well didn’t it? So my life since I last wrote. I didn’t really talk much about my trip to Italy, which I suppose was a bit of a missed opportunity because it was an amazing holiday, but I saw so much I didn’t … Read more
I like my beats fast and my bass down low
Its been so long since I’ve blogged you probably think I’ve drowned myself in the sea out of misery. I have finally finished unpacking…3 weeks later. So my room looks much more roomier and cosy. There’s less McFly and a more mature setting of Shakespeare’s, Austen’s and Byron’s amongst the Twilight Saga on my shelves. … Read more
3 Days Spent Unpacking. Unpacking Still Not Done
So my first week back from uni hasn’t been as productive as I’d hoped. Its taken me three days to unpack…and I haven’t finished. I’ve had to throw away pretty much everything in my room, when I went to uni I kind of left behind the bedroom of a 15-year-old so goodbye Mcfly posters, Busted … Read more
Oh I Do Like to be Beside the Seaside…And I’ve Been Long Gone and Boy, I’ve Got the Birmingham Blues
This is by no means a blog dedicated to discussion around my dissertation, even though its been the only thing on my mind for the last two months I’ve tried to stop myself from posting status updates and blogs about it as much as possible…unless you follow my twitter in which case, don’t complain I … Read more
That biro’s ameezin’!
One of the traditions I’ve kept up this summer is going to Bar 129 on a Monday or a Tuesday and visitng really tall, really northern Kev from Middlesborough who has a love of bikes and parmos. These nights usually consist of myself, Rachel, Alex and Beave drinking with Kev until closing time, carrying after … Read more
Packing, Unpacking – maybe I’ll just take clothes and an ipod I can’t be bothered
This is what a half packed/confused room looks like. I feel like I’ve lived out if a suitcase this entire summer, afraid to unpack anything knowing I’ll be off elsewhere soon and then eventually leaving for Birmingham. Not that I haven’t had a wonderful summer, but sometimes I think maybe I should have slowed down … Read more
I’m the devil, but you can call me Toby
My job at the icecream hut isn’t as exciting as it may sound. Living by the sea, bbq’s and drinking on the beach when I was younger has been met with comments such as “wow that’s amazing!, its like The O.C”. Yes it is like The O.C, but scummier. It would be like The O.C … Read more
I’m picking up my pension tomorrow
So what do you do when you arrive back in a quiet seaside town, with no money and no excitement? This made me think back to my blogs during my last stint in Felixstowe. I tried to think of something to do every day in my home town. Unfortunately I only managed to find something … Read more
Have you ever seen a car park turned into a fair? Course not
I know I know, I haven’t blogged in almost two days BUT I’ve been earning a hard living making ice creams by day and pizza’s by night. I’m a food making machine. Lets be honest you haven’t been on tenterhooks for my next ‘things to do in Felixstowe blog’ because you’re not really planning to … Read more
