New Fallout trailer...

The revenge of my utter slackness!..

So I know I'v not been on here in a good few months but its all been a bit head over heels, lots of gigs, shows, great films that all need to be shouted about...(I will get to them in time)

But mostly its because I started my new job a couple of months back (they somehow thought it would be a good idea to let me work up at head office)

I promise to update and spill all my thoughts back over the internets for all of your scrutinising needs in a more timely and frequent manner.

P.S. I also bought some flippin' great records recently which I will also have to come back to for now.

Nice One

Making my Home Brew (Part 1)...

So I started to brew my beer today, I took a few snaps for prosperity purposes...

This is the kit I got.

I boiled up some water and added the Hops and Malt Extract

Filled it up with tap water and added a Chlorine neutralizer tablet

Waited 10 Mins and added the Yeast

Then I gave it all a thorough stir

Put the lid on

Filled the water level in the Air Lock/Gauge

Finally slotted the Air Lock into the top of the fermenter barrel

and put it somewhere out of the sun

Now I just have to stir it once a day for a few days then leave it a week,

then I have to Barrel it and leave it to condition for a couple of weeks.

Beer...

Im making beer, i got my home brew kit all together now and I'm gonna start my brew tomorrow, I'm gonna make a hoppy summer bitter that, if my timing is just right, should be ready to drink for Jimmies B-Day.

...also its MADSTOCK on Friday, what a win!

LONG Overdue...

So June was a ridiculous month for me, barely a moment to myself.

it started with a week or so of fucking awesome gigs, firstly i saw The Specials at the academy, and it was immense, getting the chance to see a band iv been listening to my whole life was a treat, the atmosphere was untold and they were all so tight (despite the absence of Dammers). Plus Pama International were supporting so extra bonus points all round!!!

Then a couple of days later Dub Trio played the underworld and that was pretty good too, weird to see the underworld not at capacity though.

As if that wasn't good enough The Slackers played and as per usual blew the place apart!.. also excellent support from good friends of mine The Skints, go see them if you see their name on a bill!

On top of a month of blinding shows I have been doing a whole load of studying for work stuff, i did my WSET Level 2 exam, and also took my Licensing exam so I will soon be able to authorize all number of legal mumbo jumbo!

It was also Jimmies degree show so a few of us got on the bus and trundled up to Nottingham to check it out, it was part of the 13th annual PhotoRadar festival, it was an odd way to have a degree show but i quite liked it. all the students were holding exhibitions at various galleries across the city and the flyer had a map on the back, it was kinda like a treasure hunt.

I liked Nottingham as a town, but it was probably the most studenty place iv ever been to, i did have a pretty fun time up there though!

So that just about sums up my stupid June and hopefully ill be keeping myself a bit more up to scratch with keeping this blog up and running!

Super Slackness...

Yeah so iv been ridiculously busy for the last 4 or 5 weeks so Ihavent been blogging, but fear not theres a biggun on the way folks
