The Gig and Fake Plastic Trees

The band last night were good, not sure they'll ever hit the big time, but if you're into The Feeling, crossed with Radiohead and the Fratellis, give them a bit of a listen...Air Traffic

I was a good night tho, nice to be out of Loughborough, and although I'm not familiar with Brum, it was nice having a tiny walk round, I even managed to seduce Nikki...(that's a joke!) and we all had a dance at the end to the cheesy 90's dance they put on, before wending our way home, where I noticed that if you close your eyes and relax, it feels like being in a bob-sleigh driving at 90 mph down county roads (thanks Rich)

I had a lovely lie in this morning and I'm going to start revising after I've watched neighbours, I was gonna get up early, but I'm enjoying the rest tbh. I also had a post that I constructed in my head last night, but I can't remember what it was now - one of those things you think of as you drift off to sleep, it all seems so clear then, but gone in the morning. Maybe it'll come back to me.

1. Listening to and rediscovering Radiohead, Fake Plastic Trees sends shivers down my spine and reminds me of summers long ago lying on the grass at school, dreaming about being a million miles away from that life, and now knowing that I've got away.

2. The prospect of having a humous jacket potato for lunch. I have a humous addiction I haven't fed for a long time.

3. Spending time on my own and relaxing in my own company. I'm the type of person who finds socialising enjoyable but draining and I have to balance every hour with other people, with 2 hours in blissful solitude.
