Right first update in a while so going to make it a big 1! (Unless I get bored)
Recently my life has been pretty much working consistently! No that I do any more hours or anything like that I just never seem to get out of the mindset of work!
As a result of my “strange” state of mind and actually being dedicated to a company I have been neglecting my party instincts and more noticeably my comrades the infamous “brothers of beer”, With Dave limping about the pool in the “Neilston” attempting to save the life’s of smacked up swimmers on a regular basis we generally have been having small Friday beer sessions after 9pm that result in lots of drunken banter usually directed at the state of females dancing around us!
Anyways going back a week or two but myself and the rev ended up in Campus as usual with Sam and her friend (whose name escapes me lol soz hun), the night quickly turned into a beer swigging stupid dancing kind of night out and I fortunately managed to keep my clothes on this time!
The following week at work was entertaining at least! In a vain attempt for my company to give me something to do I have been working on a training manual for the colleges etc, at least I get to use my limited creative skills to crate this document and actually made work entertaining for the week!
And so on to last weekend that was eventful to say the least!
FRIDAY
My self and my following beauty express minions decided that we haven’t been drunk together for quite a long time and decided to partake in a few cocktails and a bite to eat in Stavka! Upon arriving there a fellow old workmate in WIGWAM from times gone by had advised myself that some girl who he had “forgotten” to call back after a 1 on 1 experience had posted pictures of him in the girls toilets with the headline “Steve has the clap”, as you can imagine I had to see this for myself (the pictures not stevies STD) and quickly rushed into the girls lavvies and left shortly after I had quite honestly keeled over in amusement at how far this girl was willing to go to embarrass Steve in his workplace!
The rest of the night was entertaining anyways and the one and only (thank god) “Dave” joined myself and my workmates in mucho alcohol in BOX (cred to the armless drummer) and on to GURU where I was assaulted by a girl who accused me of sleeping with her mate in her bed… Of course that could not happen as I would never do such a thing unless I was heavily under the influence of alcohol that night ….. Oh crap! Well at least I never stained her bed (I don’t think so anyways)...
On the taxi ride home whilst crossing the Kinston Bridge myself and the REV witnessed the crashed Subaru with firemen attempting to cut the driver out with large what I supposedly could only be described as “clampers” which I believe is the technical term used by the Emergency services.
No I would not wish death upon anyone but when I heard that it was a stolen car and the driver was 17 I could not help but think well “serves ya right”, hopefully youngsters will take the fact that stealing a car and driving it a 90mph over a bridge is just plain suicidal and that if they get hurt or killed no1 really cares apart from the friends and family who are the real losers in the whole situation for there loved ones moments of stupidity!
SATURDAY/SUNDAY
After getting a total of 2 and a half hours sleep I was up for the train to go to “Brummy” to film the BBC3 documentary called rights of passage!
I wont go into 2 much detail yet but all I have to say is it basically will be an hour of myself and Chris taking the Mickey out of each other although I did get to meet a few Aston Villa players !
So I will keep you posted on when the program will air but seems to be roughly the 3rd week in January!

My grampa is a kind man who has had a routh time of it lately and it seems that it couldn’t happen to anyone who deserved it less, he was first diagnosed 7 years ago and through various treatments he was given the clear exactly 5 year’s ago on Wednesday funny to think that that was the day when he was told that it was back.
On Wednesday he went for an op to remove the cancer from his neck and part of the skin from his leg was removed for the purpose of a skin graft, unfortunately it has now failed and he has had a second op with the skin taken from the other leg for the skin graft. He has been advised of his 40% chance of survival, Imagnine being told that that when you are put under for an operatin that the odds are you will never wake up… a horrible feeling i assume you must agree on. I cant imagine what it must have been like saying his goodbyes to his daughter and wife my own aunt and granny before he went in… never knowing if he would see them again…
All the best gramps and I know the miller instinct of survival should be enough to pull you through this… if even only to sepnd a short time with your loved ones and I am sure god will allow you this one grace.
My thougts are with you
As usual my only way to deal with things is with the support of my fiends and the grace of a night out to try to put thoughts in the back of my mind and to enjoy the rapidly depleating time of my youth… no longer can I let worries rule my life and I have to start to remember how lucky I am to have the support of my friends and family, a good job, a nice home and my own health.. its funny how many family members I have lost over the last few years but I guess that is just life…
Anyways I suppose I shuld get back to ordering kits for the new students at college of commerce (where I am now), who would of ever guesses that I would be helping hundreds of young beauty students all over the country…… infact probably everyone could of guessed that!

So finally everyone in my close group seems to be getting on with our lives and starting to actually do something that doesn’t resemble a large skid mark.
I am doing an enjoyable job that I am actually getting some credit from (unlike the large corporations that I have previously worked for) Being such a small company any ideas are taken on board and tried... overtime at this busy time is rewarded not just through pay but with thank you’s from our bosses and even our MD at one point vocally and not through some hastily typed email sent to the entire company, Don’t get me wrong the money is crap but I can honestly say that I look forward to what ever challenge is going to be facing myself each day and meet them head on..
My closest ally’s who(like me)have been themselves on a bit of a career roundabout over the last few years both seem reasonably content with the path that they have chosen.
Our own self confessed arrogant David Hasslehoff alike has finally taken off the restriction of his tie and been let loose on the Ned infested waters of East Renfrewshire’s Swimming Pools as a life guard, although his ulterior motive has not yet been revealed.
Is this a ploy to rid our local areas of scum by “accidentally” holding there heads under the water at the Neilston swimming baths or is it that he has just found a job that he will enjoy that doesn’t have the restriction of a suit or set hours.. All the best to you rev in your new role of seat warmer and “may the flume be with you”.
Also entering the exciting prospect of new employment is our own “Gentle Giant”, I use the term “gentle” loosely as many young females may disagree after a night with the “bigyin” has left them limping home.
The hotel trade is something Chris seems at home with himself and may many a drunken female have there room service with a portion of Kincaid lightly seasoned with sarcasm with shit loads of bourbon on top.
Also I have to mention our music managing German football fan who has decided to pursue his career across in leprechaun land, all the best over there mate and I will use the excuse to visit yourself in the emerald isle for a pint or six of frothy black stuff before the year end.
So we all enter a new chapter in our brief existence on this planet and I personally cannot wait until we all have one of our infamous beer guzzling, woman using and stupid dancing nights out... and long may our careers develop and our livers give up.
Role on Thursday till my bank balance has a positive number in it… even at least for one weekend.

Love this wee pic... cheers to melissa for this...
Priceless at half the cost
So been a while (like forever) since i actually gave a wee update on this thing so i thought i would start by mentioning the word "Skint", the word that i use on to often .. " what you doin 2nite mate.."." Nuffin am skint" .. "comin out for a pint " "naw mate am skinto" "fancy chipping in for world domanation using nothing but a screw driver and a half digested hamster" would do but i cant afford the bus fare for it!
^ the happy days when i could afford to drink
anyways this repetition of skintness has left me feeling rather down of yet and has resulted in only 4 options..
1:another part time job
sell the only working kidney i have
3: Start selling my sperm
4: actyually start saving and shit (no chance)
To be quite frank the lot dont seem that appealing so i have turned to my commerade that keeps me sane the one and only Rev Toddiski to keep my brain intact through countless hours of Dvd's and Playstaion bashing till one of us will finally complete the 3 wheeled madness that is stuntman (damn that helicopter shooting the bridge from under me! anyway cheers to the psycotic monster that i turn too on a "one too many " basis... and i betta thank dave too lol!
Anyways ova the last few weeks i have started to see the light and this idea of having a "girlfriend" and not in a "yes if i sleep with you ill be yer boyfriend honest Guvnah" kind of way i mean i actually have a person that understands me for the self obssesed twat that i am (that comment itself is self obssesive to an exten... aint lying... this once hee he), anways the lovely Nicola has accepted me into her family (scarley quickley) and we are gettin a nice wee pad in the quiet arear that iz "The GORBALS" oh well... probs a step up from barrhead anyway! anywas cheers babes for last weekend... u know what i mean!! and apologies to my uncle kenny who heard sumffin he probs shdnt lol
oh and before i forget BYE BYE BARRHEAD oh how ill miss "yeh right"
Today was the last time i will see my house that i grew up in and i admit i had a wee tear in my eye when we locked the door for the last time.. memories such as the party before the dinner dance, Chris shagging in my bed at least 5 times that i can remeber, Having my first wank (erm how did that get there), loosing my virginity there (i right i wish and anyone who knows me knows the true place lol) and many more... its funny but you home is usually your safest place and it never really was for me.. for alot of bad memories that i had there today all the good memories that had been lost under (1789 pints and counting) of beer came flooding back and life didnt seem too bad.. you see as long as your mates and your memories are there you realise that no matter what life wants too fling your way u can only take it on the chin and turn to the things that matter most... i feel happier and stronger today(due to the heavy lifting phew) than i have done in years and i owe it all too bricks and Mortar that hold images better than any camera could.

Kept thinking I could never pass without revision guides,
But then I spent so many nights, getting all the questions wrong,
And I grew strong, And I learned how to scrape along,
I won't look back, to any place,
When I can swallow 15 shots and get completely off my face,
I would have spent all day at work,
I would have had no spare time free,
If I'd thought for just one second my exams would bother me,
So all my notes, are on the floor,
Don't even matter... that there's no Comedy night anymore...
Weren't you the one who tried to get me to revise?
You think I'd crumble?
You think I'd work towards the skies?
Oh no, not I! I won't revise!
Unless I die from alcohol, I know I'll stay alive,
Though my money's at an end,
I've my overdraft to spend,
I won't revise, I won't revise!!
It took all the strength I had, not to act the part,
But in the end my real revision didn't even start.
I used to sit at home at night, feeling guilty to myself,
I used to try,
But now hold my head up high,
And you see me! Somebody new!
i'm not that mixed up weird person who wants a good 2:2
So if you feel like dropping in, chances are that I'll be free,
Coz I've done fuck all revision, and I'm failing my degree,
Oh no, not I! I won't revise,
I think that I may scrape a third, but I could be telling lies!
Let the lecturers all scorn,
My bed's far too nice and warm,
I won't revise, I won't revise........... ~*~*~*~

At 4:56a As the bus doors closed in front of him the “comedown” started to kick in, but Reiss never cared, he had became homeless and for the first time in his life he had no one to turn to, Jo had stepped aboard that number 66 and for all he knew he would never see her again, one thing was sure though, he would have to call his parents..
The radio alarm started blaring some new teen rock band and Reiss knew that it was time to get up , he opened his eyes to see his beautiful girlfriend already dressed for work smiling at him Reiss never could understand how she manages to awaken a good hour before himself and get ready with ought even stirring him.
“Good night last night” she says sarcasticly as Reiss stood up grasping the glass of water lying at the side of his bed, “I think so” he states before heading off for the shower that would make or break him for his day in work.
When he returns his girlfriend Jo had already left for work , she had placed a note in his shoe advising him not to forget that they where attending one of Jo’s friends 18th birthday party in the local bowling club, Reiss reminisced of himself being 18, life seemed so easy then , nights down the pub with no token phone call from “the mrs” reminding him that she was sitting home alone, No real debt or any other worries , when Reiss was 18 the only worry he had was the next time he would get his end away.
At 22 Reiss felt that life had changed totally for him, although being 18 only seemed like last week in reality the 4 years had been the longest of his life, he had a stable job now, a nice flat and of course the stunning girlfriend Jo, Reiss had met Jo when she was 16 and they both worked in a tacky female clothes job in the city centre, Jo caught reiss’s eye the moment she walked in ,amazingly tall slim and beautiful Reiss became the envy of all his friends and he regularly deliberately invited her on nights out where he knew people for the sole purpose of giving himself a confidence boost.
Reiss and Jo where not without there problems though, Jo’s father had effectively banned her from seeing Reiss forcing the couple to get them selves there own wee flat, Although jo’s father still came round to visit them he still had never made any eye contact with Reiss.
Reiss made the same walk he made every day to the train station passing by the same people caught up in there own little oblivious world attempting to get to there own workplace, Reis always stood on the same area of the platform everyday , smoking one of his newly bought 20 Marlboro lights, waiting for the large orange coloured piece of metal that always ran late no matter what, as Reiss entered the train he pulled the same smile to the same girl on the same section of the train that he does every day.
Work had always seemed as escapism for Reiss although recently he had to admit it had become a bit of a drag. His parents had consistently looked down on his previous jobs so when he told them that he finally had the stable office job within a large company they could not have been gladder. When in this place of work his eye is always was looking for the next time he could leave, 10:30am out to smoke a ciggie, 1pm lunch where he joined the same people he had seen in the morning queuing for an overpriced peace of bread and meat from another city centre coffee shop, 3; 30pm another rushed cigarette and then on to the best time of the day “Pub Time”.
Every Friday Reiss met his long time friend Alex for a few drinks after they left work, Alex was the type of friend that Reiss could turn to in his time of need though he seldom did, this particular meeting was purely to have a few drinks and catch up.
Over a few beers Alex and Reiss talked about life in general and particularly about the young blonde girl that Reiss had be smiling at on the train.
“So you made yet move yet mate?” Alex said knowing the answer already, “never man, I told ya I am a one girl man now mate” replied Reiss with a slight smirk on his face, Alex burst into the kind of fake laugh you would expect at a first date and simply replied “bullsh*t”.
After drinks Reiss and Alex said there goodbyes and arranged to do the same again next week, As Reiss walked towards the orange monstrosity at the station he day dreamed about the girl on the train waiting for him to arrive so she could finally introduce herself to Reiss and they could disappear to the train toilets to join the infamous 2 foot club, of course when Reiss got to his train the girl was nowhere to be seen.
Reiss And Jo as usual where running late for Jo’s friends party, after turning the taxi driver round to check if jo’s straighter where unplugged they where finally on there way. “So when does this thing finish” asked Reiss whilst trying to hide his face from the taxi driver who had many times dropped him off after a night out. “about 12, but if you’ve arranged to meet your friends after that’s no problem as I’m staying at a friends tonight” Jo surprisingly replied, of course Reiss had no arrangements, he really never had for nights out as he was safe in knowing that attending a few bars where some friends worked a night out would materialize as if it had been planned for weeks.
The party was one of the usual west of Scotland birthday parties, in one area there sat all of the girls family who would all either be driving or sipping on a Bacardi breezer as they believed this made them look “hip”, in another corner would be there all of the young girls with there older boyfriends who usually drove some sort of heavily modified P registration monstrosity that looked as if it could have some sort of rocket propelled exhaust and at any moment would take off and start flying towards the next modified car festival where another track suited electrician apprentice would be waiting to lay praise upon the owner, Reiss never cared where these cars flew too as long as they where not anywhere near him.
Reiss ordered a pint at the bar and an overpriced bottle of flavoured piss water for Jo before sitting down before realising it was exactly between the two groups, Reiss drank his pint quickly in the hope that if was drunk the party would become more bearable.
As the Hours passed and Reiss became more settled he realised that he was actually starting to enjoy himself more, he praised the person that created the sugar based shots that made Reiss forget about any problems he had faced that day, Jo approached Reiss extending her arm as if she wanted him to stand, Reiss new that Jo was attempting to get Reiss to come dance with her to the latest song from some teen rock band , Reiss smiled and reluctantly got up , Reiss had never been able to dance, he flailed his arms a bit and shuffled his feet but if this was considered dancing was beyond him. After the song had finished Jo looked at Reiss allowing him to be saved from his dance floor humiliation and he immediately headed for the bar and ordered another pint and sugary shot.
As it almost hit 11pm Reiss ordered a Taxi and started to say his goodbyes to Jo and her friends when Reiss’s phone started to ring. “Alwright Bawbag” was the familiar greeting Reiss received from his friend Stuart when he picked up the phone, “you finished kiddie fiddling yet?” Stuart stated before Reiss had any chance to respond, “yeah asshole, ill be up in town in about 20 minutes” Reiss said before arranging to meet Alex at a city centre chain pub in Glasgow’s main pub and club street.
Reiss walked through the doors of the bowling club and immediately started to get a head spin, he realised that the alcohol had more of an effect on him than he thought and as Reiss made his way towards the taxi he new that the night had just began.
Reiss and Stuart stood against the bar looking at the new attractive bar maid serving them there pints of lager Reiss thought to himself that somehow the plainest of girls managed to look a lot better when she is serving you beer, Reiss and Stuart sat down at the seat closest to the bar and started chatting about there latest escapades, Stuart had barley finished talking about life in his job as a door steward when reiss’s eyes caught someone he instantly recognised, It was the girl from the train.
Even with the alcohol increasing Reiss’s confidence he still could not approach her, he had never exactly been shy and if the girl had been a random he had started speaking too inside a club then Reiss had no problem in approaching and general chit chat, this girl though seemed familiar to Reiss though, not a typical stranger , Reiss thought to himself about all the fantasies he had about this girl and the fact that he had built up a personality to which he had no idea if it resembled anything like what the girls actual personality was like, for all Reiss new, the girl could actually be a stuck up bitch that he had encountered on several nights out with what him and his friends like to call “the brotherhood of beer”.
As quickly as the girl arrived she quickly vanished again with her friends and headed across the street and disappeared, Reiss started to laugh to himself at not having the same guts that he did as a teenager and continued drinking his beer and chatting to Stuart.
Reiss never quied for clubs, He had built up a good reputation amongst most bar and club staff in Glasgow’s main clubs so he had accustomed to never paying to get in most and in turn that meant he never got searched. Reiss had never been much of a drug taker, a few joints and lines now and again but nothing too hard, most of his mates took the odd pill but he had never had the inclination, Reiss never minded slipping a baggy in his shoe or wallet for his mates as he would never get searched anyways so little risk, tonight though that would change, Reiss had put the baggy in his wallet and when he got to the door of Glasgow premier “dance“ venue and realised that the typical bouncers where not there, he basically began too shit himself! He wandered towards the steward on the VIPs entrance and began to introduce himself when he was interrupted by a fat guy, “who the fu*k do ye think ye are mate, We’ve been queuing here for ages and you think you can just walk straight in” the guy shouted as if he himself deserved to be standing where Reiss was, Reiss and Stuart turned round sharply and looked at the guy, he was a typical dressed up Glasgow Ned turned “trendy” wearing the token pin striped trousers and multi coloured shirt, Reiss laughed turned round and again started to say his name to the steward when the guy interrupted again, “sorry mate does royalty not fucking talk to us scum anymore”, Stuart spun instantly and marched towards the already retreating fat guy, “you ever speak to us like that again ye piece a lard and ill floor ye”, Stuart said before composing himself and returning to the place where Reiss and Himself where standing. Reiss and Stuart entered the VIP door to the club and was immediately stopped, “what happened out there mate” said a steward who had obviously heard over his radio about the minor incident with the fat guy outside, “Nothing mate, just a misunderstanding with a gentleman who was not happy that we where on the guest list” Replied Reiss Sarcastically whilst raising a small smile towards to the direction of the already chuckling Stuart. The obviously unimpressed steward ushered Reiss to stand to one side whilst he searched Stuart. Reiss knew exactly what would happen next, after the bouncer had finished grasping every part of Stuart he immediately turned his attention to Reiss, “place the contents on the table please and hold both your arms out” Asked the steward who seemed to hope that he would find something that he could use to remove the boys from the club, Reiss sat down his phone, 20 fags , lighter and finally his wallet upon the table being careful not to hold or look at any one item longer than any other so not to arouse suspicion from the steward, as the guy then proceeded to pad him down Reiss felt the first trickle of sweat that he usually had in nervous situations . After padding Reiss down the steward turned his attention to his possessions and proceeded to check the fag packet for any hidden items contained inside, Reiss felt a few more trickles of sweat start to pour down and wiped these away with his hand when the steward lifted his wallet and handed it straight to him along with everything else. “have a good night boys, any hassle like what happened outside and just let one of us know in future, Reiss placed his wallet in his trouser pocket and him and Stewart headed straight inside the club and moved in the direction of the bar.
Decisions are the Bain of everyone’s life, where should we go for a meal? What should we eat from a vast menu containing yet another pasta dish with a slightly different sauce, choosing from the selection of drinks in the bar seems the exact same, at the bowling club earlier Reiss had 4 choices, beer, spirit , pish water or a sugar based shot, in the club he effectively had the same decision but this time each one had about fourteen variations all promising the best and freshest taste ever but of course advising him to drink in moderation, Decisions to Reiss just meant more chance for making a bad choice, he liked things simple but in his own way he always managed to add a complication with ought trying, Free will as it was previously known had been part of western civilisation and beyond for so long now that people did not even realise that advertising actually did sway what brand of vodka was better than the other and what aftershave or perfume would immediately attract a member of the opposite sex. Reiss choose a premium vodka and coke and him and Stuart walked towards the oversized sofas beside the dance floor.
Reiss looked around the club and immediately felt at home, The usual mix of scantly clad females dancing and there well dressed male counterparts sipping on there vodka coke all trying too look cool in the hope that one of the females may actually notice that he exists, Reiss took a sip of his vodka coke and realised that he himself was one of these guys, trying hardest to look cool but his purpose was different from the rest of the sad acts within the club, he was doing it for everyone in the club, Reiss although popular never really got a sense of acceptance from anyone apart than his closest friends, like Alex, he was simply walking through these peoples life and he would attempt to leave as many footprints as possible.
The music in the club although good was more industrial than what Reiss usually liked and he had no impulse to dance whatsoever, like the bowling club earlier Reiss rather would sit in a corner and drink quietly observing the Muppets around him trying too look cool.
“fancy a pill the night dude, asked Stuart already knowing that Reiss always said no, Reiss hated being asked questions that people already knew the answer too, he never asked those questions to anyone and most of the time refused to reply but this time he felt an inclination to say yes too Stuart, Usually the thought of losing control through any other means than alcohol did not appeal to Reiss but not tonight, Jo was at her friends, Tonight Reiss is joining Stuart in the fu*ked status.
Although Reiss had never taken anything like pills before that did not mean he was Unknowing, his understanding of the drug was probably better than most of the people who took it. Reiss took the small heart shaped pill from Stuart and slipped it in the small top pocket in his Jeans above the main pocket, He had recently had a conversation with someone about how that pocket was designed for use of condoms which Reiss had found unusual as to him the most common place for his Johnny bags was contained in a section in his wallet, safe that most people would ever know that it was there and certainly stopped the embarrassment of washing the jeans with the condom still within the pocket.
Reiss Headed to the bar and ordered a bottle of water, sat down beside Stuart again on the same sofa and finally swallowed the pill, Reiss although knowledgeable never knew how he would react to this, he looked over at Stuart who had already taken his and was beaming a big smile like he had actually persuaded Reiss to take the Class A plunge with him , Reiss was not going to take that moment away from Stuart and smiled back at him in a cheesy smile usually reserved for his family or friends who told him a joke that Reiss had heard previously.
The mix of electronic beats and industrial sounds was good to hear rather than the usual R and B that Glasgow’s clubs had been filled with for the last few years , The well known DJ was seamlessly mixing all the tracks together with ought what seemed any effort turning all the tracks into one long variation of beeps drum loops and the occasional distorted vocal over the top, Reiss still could not feel any difference from before he took the drug, Reiss decided that he wanted more alcohol and headed his way towards the bar, Reiss ordered his drink from the bar and lit a ciggie from the fast depleting supply contained in his packet and started to listen to the music, The music seemed fantastic now and all the bleeps and beats entered his mind flowing easily in and taking control of him, Reiss had heard this track a thousand times but this time it was reaching for him, he could feel it moving down through his body like being in a shower that self lathered its occupant and cleaned every inch of him, he was interrupted by the barman and took the drink and paid him for it though now the prospect of drinking it seemed almost repulsive, he moved slowly towards the dance floor eyes straight forward , all the colours of people tops and jeans seemed much more prominent than what they had done so before although all the faces still all looked the same, every stride now seemed an age, Reiss was manuvering himself between all the dancers with arms and legs flailing in every direction , Reiss never even knew here he was going, the music had now taken full control of him and had lured him to the front of the dance floor beside the DJ box and just as Reiss turned to look at the people surrounding him dancing the beat kicked in, Reiss felt as if he had just found the perfect release, he looked down and his feet where moving and he realised that he was dancing , unlike earlier at the bowling club he had not hesitated once, the beat was just too strong that he almost felt as if he owed it to the song too dance , for once Reiss never cared about who would be watching him, hell he didn’t care if everyone was pointing at him laughing, All Reiss wanted to do was dance.
Stuart Tapped Reiss on the shoulder unexpectedly and Reiss turned quickly to see who was interrupting him, “Enjoying yourself mate?” asked Stuart laughing to himself and he handed Reiss a bottle of water and joined him dancing, Reiss looked at the vodka coke in his right hand that he had bought earlier, it was of course untouched and Reiss decided to sit it at the nearest table, by now Reiss was finding it increasingly difficult to leave the dance floor and it took several attempts to prise himself away from there, He floated towards the nearest table and sat the drink on top of its veneered surface briefly smiling at the girl sat on the seat beside it, Reiss turned and started to move back towards the dance floor when he seen the girl from the train dancing near to where he was standing, Reiss stood and admired her beautiful figure and moved his eyes up and seen that she was looking straight back of him, she indicated to her friends that she was leaving them for a moment and started to move her way towards Reiss. “I know you don’t I” she asked already knowing the answer Reiss thought to himself as in the way of icebreakers this one was particularly effective, Reiss smiled and replied “I aint 100% sure but do you get the train from Patterton in the morning?”
The girl laughed and introduced herself as Sarah, ”Sarah” Reiss thought to himself that after all this time of wandering what the girls name was this almost disappointing, Reiss told her his name and suggested that they go to the bar, “No way.. I’m just coming up and this DJ is amazing” Reiss laughed to himself and grabbed Sarah’s hand and they moved towards the DJ box.
Reiss and Sarah danced for nearly an hour when Stuart made his way over towards them, Reiss noticed his eyes where like pin points and immediately realised this his also must be the same, Reiss introduced Stuart who immediately took a liking to Sarah, “hey there hunni, having a good night” asked Stuart smiling at here whilst checking out her body with his class A induced stare, Reiss looked at Stuart with a look that immediately let Stuart know that this girl was not the usual bit of fun they usually would lead on at nights out and Stuart made his excuses and left in the direction of the toilets, “ Do all your mates try and cut your grass?” asked Sarah whilst taking a drink from Reiss’s bottle of water, “Not really” he laughed and spoke at the same time, “Usually it’s the other way round”, Reiss noticed that Sarah had moved a lot closer to himself and she moved straight in towards him kissing him gently on the lips, Reiss replied kissing her back slowly and passionately and he moved his hand towards her back pulling her in, the music now seemed a lot harder and had engulfed them both in this moment of passion, the kissing getting quicker now and there hands had started caressing each others body parts furiously , Reiss was in heaven at that moment and for all he knew a friend of Jo’s could be watching him doing the dirty on his almost perfect girlfriend and if Reiss was to be honest to himself at that moment he did not care if Jo her self had been there to witness the whole thing.
As the lights came on at 3am the usual cries for “one more tune” started to come from the people on the dance floor and as per usual to the bouncers dismay the DJ acknowledged his crowd with a classic track, Sarah grabbed Reiss and pulled him towards her friends who where attempting to retrieve there jackets from the cloakroom , Sarah introduced Reiss to all of her friends and Reiss smiled politely at each one giving the impression that he was actually listening to there names, one of the girls invited Sarah and Reiss to a party at her house and Reiss of course accepted, Whilst the girls waited in the queue Reiss was attempting to find Stuart in the masses of people trying to escape the club quickly and seen him sitting down with a very young looking girl wearing what looked like Japanese style dress straddling him, a bouncer was trying to ask them to leave the club but of course Stuart was not going anywhere.
Reiss, Sarah and her friends made there way outside and started to walk towards the taxi rank when Reiss received a message on his mobile, he looked at the electronic screen and seen that Stuart had decided that he was heading straight home unaware that Reiss had seen him with the girl, Reiss simply replied “enjoy your hole mate” and laughed to himself, countless times he had lost Stuart on nights out and now he understood why, The dirty b*stard was a male slut, in act Reiss was surprised that Stuart didn’t tell him more about his exploits after hours as he believed that Stuart is the type of guy that would have been quite proud of a reputation like that.
Reiss and the girls stood in line for a black taxi outside the City center station which at tthis time of night ment standing
let me know what you think peeps!

At 4:56am As the bus doors closed in front of him the “comedown” started to kick in, but Reiss never cared, he had became homeless and for the first time in his life he had no one to turn to, Jo had stepped aboard that number 66 and for all he knew he would never see her again, one thing was sure though, he would have to call his parents..
The radio alarm started blaring some new teen rock band and Reiss knew that it was time to get up , he opened his eyes to see his beautiful girlfriend already dressed for work smiling at him Reiss never could understand how she manages to awaken a good hour before himself and get ready with ought even stirring him.
“Good night last night” she says sarcasticly as Reiss stood up grasping the glass of water lying at the side of his bed, “I think so” he states before heading off for the shower that would make or break him for his day in work.
When he returns his girlfriend Jo had already left for work , she had placed a note in his shoe advising him not to forget that they where attending one of Jo’s friends 18th birthday party in the local bowling club, Reiss reminisced of himself being 18, life seemed so easy then , nights down the pub with no token phone call from “the mrs” reminding him that she was sitting home alone, No real debt or any other worries , when Reiss was 18 the only worry he had was the next time he would get his end away.
At 23 Reiss felt that life had changed totally for him, although being 18 only seemed like last week in reality the 4 years had been the longest of his life, he had a stable job now, a nice flat and of course the stunning girlfriend Jo, Reiss had met Jo when she was 16 and they both worked in a tacky female clothes job in the city centre, Jo caught reiss’s eye the moment she walked in ,amazingly tall slim and beautiful Reiss became the envy of all his friends and he regularly deliberately invited her on nights out where he knew people for the sole purpose of giving himself a confidence boost.
Reiss and Jo where not without there problems though, Jo’s father had effectively banned her from seeing Reiss forcing the couple to get them selves there own wee flat, Although jo’s father still came round to visit them he still had never made any eye contact with Reiss.
Reiss made the same walk he made every day to the train station passing by the same people caught up in there own little oblivious world attempting to get to there own workplace, Reis always stood on the same area of the platform everyday , smoking one of his newly bought 20 Marlboro lights, waiting for the large orange coloured piece of metal that always ran late no matter what, as Reiss entered the train he pulled the same smile to the same girl on the same section of the train that he does every day.
Work had always seemed as escapism for Reiss although recently he had to admit it had become a bit of a drag. His parents had consistently looked down on his previous jobs so when he told them that he finally had the stable office job within a large company they could not have been gladder. When in this place of work his eye is always was looking for the next time he could leave, 10:30am out to smoke a ciggie, 1pm lunch where he joined the same people he had seen in the morning queuing for an overpriced peace of bread and meat from another city centre coffee shop, 3; 30pm another rushed cigarette and then on to the best time of the day “Pub Time”.
Every Friday Reiss met his long time friend Alex for a few drinks after they left work, Alex was the type of friend that Reiss could turn to in his time of need though he seldom did, this particular meeting was purely to have a few drinks and catch up.
Over a few beers Alex and Reiss talked about life in general and particularly about the young blonde girl that Reiss had be smiling at on the train.
“So you made yet move yet mate?” Alex said knowing the answer already, “never man, I told ya I am a one girl man now mate” replied Reiss with a slight smirk on his face, Alex burst into the kind of fake laugh you would expect at a first date and simply replied “bullsh*t”.
After drinks Reiss and Alex said there goodbyes and arranged to do the same again next week, As Reiss walked towards the orange monstrosity at the station he day dreamed about the girl on the train waiting for him to arrive so she could finally introduce herself to Reiss and they could disappear to the train toilets to join the infamous 2 foot high club, of course when Reiss got to his train the girl was nowhere to be seen.

The Keys to Your Heart |
You are attracted to those who have a split personality - cold as ice on the outside but hot as fire in the heart. |
In love, you feel the most alive when your lover is creative and never lets you feel bored. |
You'd like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful... that you'll never change. |
You would be forced to break up with someone who was insecure and in constant need of reassurance. |
Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with. |
Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment. |
You think of marriage as something precious. You'll treasure marriage and treat it as sacred. |
In this moment, you think of love as something you thirst for. You'll do anything for love, but you won't fall for it easily. |
Your Birthdate: February 24 |
Born on the 24th, you have a greater capacity for responsibility and helping others than your may have realized. You may also become the mediator and peacemaker in inharmonious situations. Devoted to family, you tend to manage and protect. This birth date adds to the emotional nature and perhaps to the sensitivities. Affections are important to you; both the giving and the receiving. |
Recent life has been quite cool actually! moved into my STUNNING new flat about a month ago and have been out TOOO many times, mainly with my new flat mate and the (sorry for stealing this) Brother of beer Howzo.

Who should I vote for?
Your expected outcome:
LabourYour actual outcome:
| Conservative -14 | |
| Green -4 |
You should vote: Liberal Democrat
The LibDems take a strong stand against tax cuts and a strong one in favour of public services: they would make long-term residential care for the elderly free across the UK, and scrap university tuition fees. They are in favour of a ban on smoking in public places, but would relax laws on cannabis. They propose to change vehicle taxation to be based on usage rather than ownership.

I'd love to Bang the Bangles.
I wouldn't kiss Bruce Springsteen,
Jackson Brown or Leonard Cohen.
But I know someone who'd love to shift
The drummer in Status Quo.
And I wouldn't drop the love on Bono,
There'd be too many legal wrangles.
But Jesus Christ Almighty, I'd love to touch the Bangles.
I wouldn't kiss AC/DC
Or Lemmy from Motorhead
I wouldn't kiss Tom Petty,
Tina Turner or the Grateful Dead.
And I wouldn't kiss Mr Tambourine Man
No matter how he jingled or jangled
But Jesus Christ Almighty, I'd love to kiss the Bangles.
I'd love to have it off with Suzanna Hoffs.
I'd love to have it off with Suzanna Hoffs.
I'd love to have it off with Suzanna Hoffs.
Err ... my favourite's Vicky, actually.
I wouldn't kiss Liam O'Maonlai,
Guns & Roses or Muddy Waters.
I wouldn't kiss Brian Wilson
Or his lovely yankee daughters.
And Shane McGowan is not my type
Because his teeth are green and mangled
But Jesus Christ Almighty, I'd love to bang the Bangles.
Oh Jesus Christ Almighty, I'd love to bang the Bangles.
And my personal fave listed below
Bless me Father
Bless me father for I have sinned
She had big brown eyes and silky skin
Bless me father I couldn’t resist
Father you just have no idea what you’ve missed
Where it’s Wednesday every second week
From September until May
She gets the bus to go to work
Before the dawning of the day
She took my hand and led me
Up the stairs into temptation
In the room the candle flickers
And your feet are swept away
Bless me father for I have sinned
She had big brown eyes and silky skin
Bless me father I couldn’t resist
Father you just have no idea what you’ve missed
All the daydreams in my gallery
Are portraits of her prettiness
All the secret silent moments
Call her features into view
Every other woman
Draws contrasts and comparisons
With the stars and heavenly bodies
She sits perfectly in tune
Bless me father for I have sinned
She had big brown eyes and silky skin
Bless me father I couldn’t resist
Father you just have no idea what you’ve missed
I’ll say three hail Mary’s and a glory be
If prayers would bring her here to me
I clenched her shoulders in ecstasy
She’s got a heart of steel
Delightful kindness
She looks great in jeans
Dunnes stores finest
In the crucibles flames
Her heart was forged
In tongues of fire
Now I long for more
Bless me father for I have sinned
She had big brown eyes and silky skin
Bless me father I couldn’t resist
Father you just have no idea what you’ve missed
She’s the greatest kisser I ever kissed
Absolution!
any ways .... wota gig!!!! and wot a trip!
