JOE STRUMMER THE FUTURE IS UNWRITTEN

I have finally seen this documentary on Joe Strummer. One of the great things about being in England is being able to see great documentaries. It was a beautiful piece of work putting together the life of this great artist. I couldn't help but feel if i like a lot of people around him would have found him difficult to be around. A lot of people i respect particularly Don Letts make an appearance. I couldn't help but feel that the 'congenital heart' attack maybe a fabrication of a possible suicide. This is baseless but that was just the feeling i got from it and from some personal experience.

I could write more on this but i would only be ruining it for you.

I highly recommend this documentary.

TWICKENHAM

Saturday November 15 was the first time i went to the hallowed turf of Twickenham. Unfortunatley for me i was not there in the capacity to attend as a player nor a spectator. What made it a little harder to swallow was the fact that i was working in a bar. All the bars at Twickenham face the outer and you are unable to see the game.

The worst thing about this first Twickenham experience was that it was Australia Vs England. My bar manager was rather cool and let me have a break and watch the first 20 minutes on the TV adjacent to the bar (which we were told at the start of the shift we would not be able to do.) I have to tell you that some of the Englishman i didn't want to serve prior to the game given their utter arrogance towards Australian's generally. It was sweet however when the Wallabies came through with victory rather convincingly 28-14 it was rather sweet.

One of the security guards was nice enough to let me take a couple of shots (will be up later) of the ground when it was empty. I was also fortunate to be able to see the Wallabies board their bus and give them some applause for their efforts.

MAN TRIES TO PAY FOR BILL WITH SPIDER DRAWING

Check this out. I found the email correspondance rather humourous.

Sorry i would have posted it as a hyperlink. But for some reason it didnt (nor hasn't) worked for a while.

WELSH, SCOTTISH, IRISH, ENGLISH OR BRITISH?

Andy Murray. He is currently rated in the top 10 in the world tennis ranking's i believe. I find it quite hilarious that on television and in the media in Britain that when this guy is winning he is conveniently British. But is Scottish when he loses. This seems to happen quite a bit here. I am not aware if it is the other way around in other parts of Britain, on my trip to Scotland i did not watch enough television to comment (Why would you anyway?)

I guess that this justifies why Australian media claims ownership of the people of New Zealand. (You can have Russell Crowe back by the way)

WINDRUNNERS

I have wanted a pair so bad since i got to London at the end of August. But they would get pretty trashed. Pretty similar to Max light's but very subtle differences. They are about £54.99 which by Australian terms is cheap. Just gotta get some flow together to get a pair!

HIGHLAND COWS

These highland cow's look like they would do you some serious damage. I am assured however that they are quite placid. I am a big fan of Highland cow's. It's the hair colour i think. Goats are still my favourite animal however.

I still will not attempt Cow tipping with these creatures. For those unaware of the art of Cow tipping here is a resource for you to research.

It's funny when you discover something like this. For example it's quite known now that the Hippopotamus is the deadliest creature in Africa. Take a look at the picture below, when they make eye contact with you like this be assured that you are in trouble.



They are sold to eat in Britain as 'Aberdeen Angus' I cannot say that i will be eating it anytime soon as i cant justify paying for the price of meat in London where i am currently residing

WRITERS TOUR OF CRANFEILD UK

I am aware of the spelling error it is rather deliberate.

Cranfeild is a town of about 5000 people about an hour and a bit drive from London. It actually has about 8000 people if you include the University im told.

Cranfeild has some writers. They dont appear to tag the street but they get up in the recreation park.


At the front we are greeted by Trev and Blitz, Blitz gets up a bit in the park.


Dream also gets up at the front here is one of his throwy's.


Pinez


Australia's Best Cricketer? One and a bit hour's drive from London? Ricky Ponting on Ashes tour?


'Likes' is a king round these parts. You can tell by the crown above the tag.


Check out the Laden tag on the bin. Made me laugh.


No Forigners. I wonder if someone is taking the piss, i wasn't quite sure whether to be offended or not. If not when i find a Forigner i may have to tell them NO!


I wonder if there is beef with 'Minimal Damage' and the other writers. Its capped a dream throwy underneath. I start to wonder whether 'Minimal Damage' is a piss take also? It could be also a great name for an 80's rock band, you know the type with big hair and make up. The type of band that would be a support act for a band called 'Final Warning' or something to that effect.


Postcode tags YIH!


'Blitz' again and 'RACEC'?


Someone in love?


Ed love's someone


Ed love's someone else, must get around this Ed ormust be a bit of a player or something.


LS


Wondering if they are related?


COZ krew


'Rude' throwy, COZ again and 'Bobiz'


Dead beat pikey's great name for a krew, or for that matter a 'real' punk band. Minimal damage again


Jew Unit appears to be a krew in Cranfeild they dont appear notorious in the park however.

CANT STOP WONT STOP

I just finshed reading this book. Was quite a good insight into American culture and politics. Interesting to read at the same time as Barack Obama becoming president elect. I wonder when there will be a black Prime Minister or even for that matter possibly a Governer General? I also wonder if an Indigenous Australian would want to be a representative of the Queen in their own land.

Anyway this book is dope and you should check it.
