A Secret Transmission within the Guild

- 16:31 @Wossy Ask Mr Pegg if we can ever expect a return of Spaced in some form. Afterall 10 years have past, just like the Matrix. #

- 10:53 @jimmycarr ask Jordan's adivce on how to deal with inflation and depression. I'm sure she knows all the tricks of the trade! #
Update once more
Well since last time I posted a proper update the following has happened.
- Sam's mum and aunt and her mum's friend came down to visit us and brought with them the weddign gifts that we could not bring back with us when we got back from Venice. We had a ncie day walking about Leamington, had food at Corleone's. I as typical right now got a bit depressed with the shopping as there seems to be nothing I want to get myself right now (be it clothes because the shops sell awful new rave monkey wear and because right now we can't afford anything like a new console or computer so buy computer games as a way to have a quick fix is pointless). I find shopping really annoying just because there is no way of quick gratification for me and I wonder why I am so difficult. I think it is made worse when I see people swanning about spending imaginary money, i.e. credit cards, when I am being careful.
- My sister Zoe and her boyfriend Rob came down this weekend just gone and we had kinda did the same thing, but this time trying to find my sister something for her birthday.
- Had the entire 'Yeah we can negotiate pets' with the landlord turn into and out right no after we had the entire weekend hoping that they would let us. Bastards. I fucking hate all estate agents and landlords.
- Actually getting somewhere with my work, as in finding that the program I am using has been doing some rather strange things that it shouldn't do.
- Started writing my next paper.
- Found out one of my papers has been cited other than by the Popelier group.
- Looking forward to going to London for the Alec Empire gig.
- Has got his hair cut finally. It was getting too long
- Has met a another newbie to Leamington, James, who works in the computer games industry and is not too geeky.
- Finally got a new roleplay group together and now looking to getting the first session running. See
That is all

5 Questions
Provided by
More questions can be asked or you can ask me to set you five.
1. How did you go about quitting smoking?
I was never really addicted. It was something I got into as part of extra curricular activies of . So really smoking was just the secondary thing to actually getting stoned. I would only ever smoke normal cigs on a night out, or if I was feeling particularly stressed at work. I was never the type to wake up in the morning and be needing to smoke. I also guess it helps I smoked rollies. It requires that effort to make the damned thing and then once you have you wonder why you did. Quitting was really because Sam wanted me to and that I really wasn't addicited and so I shouldn't get addicted if I wanted to be in good health. Also what with my thesis submission looming and other commitments it was the best thing to do while cutting down smoking in general (smoking to get stoned is more fun that just smoking, but getting stoned when you need to finish your thesis is not the best situation). So it wasn't that difficult. I was never an addict, just a social smoker.
2. Have you ever dyed your pubic hair?
Nope. Would I? No. I mean whats the point. I can only think that if it has ever gained a colour it would have been when showering to rinse out the hair dye on my head.
3. Would you ever want to become a famous professor in your field?
Fame is gonna be hard in my field unless I do something revolutionary. That's unlikely. Only physicists do that type of thing to chemistry. No I hope to famous in a very minor way, as in my papers get cited a lot and I get asked to talk about my work.
4. Would you ever grow facial hair?
I am lucky that I really don't have to be that tidy looking for my work, so I only really shave twice a week. That means I have a near constant stubble. But would I have a beard or something else. Not right now. But I have considered the goatee for the future when I feel I am the age where I can sport such a thing.
5. If you could play a character in a movie, who would it be?
Me of course! No really this is a hard question to answer. I guess I like either the completely insane characters (Joker, Patrick Bateman, Rorschach, Magneto) and more epic characters (Wolverine, Neo, Thomas in The Foutain). If I was to choose something that isn't a movie and to play a character from it I would have to choose Severian from the Book of the New Sun. It would make an epic, crazy scifi/fantasy film.
