drunk in a protest
Me and Gareth drank a bottle of 'The Famous Grouse' at the anti-war rally yesterday. The drunkeness just creeps up on you. The whiskey goes down so smothly and theres not all the pissing that beer involves. We paid £14.50 for the bottle and 69 pence for a bottle of coke. That combo is enough to get you pissed, and cheaply too. Before we were buying a jug of beer for £10 in a pub which had equvalent to 2 pints each. Rip off.
There was a peaces/anti war rally to in Hyde park with loads of stands selling literature etc.
Muppet man wasnt there because he was taking 4 Lobsters on holiday to Czech rep. Can't wait to speak to him again. He packed 4 live Lobsters in his backpack to take as a Birthday present for his father. Sorrry, but I cant see a happy ending for this. Either the aiport people discovered them, which they probably didnt because they were in his main luggage or when he opened his backpack in Czech the creatures have kicked the bucket.
I bought one of those posters of 'Bush is a terrorist' yesterday too.
wE spent most of the afternoon a reasonable distance from the stage calling a bunch of people in Cardiff and as always when drunk, Charlie boy in Pakistan on his mobile. When you get drunk you tend to do certain things. For Roger, its calling Pakistan, talking really loudly with a sense of urgency and getting rowdy. I dunno how i get but horny is a suitable adjective ( is it an adjective?) to discribe myself. I even had a pop at a Romanian Gypsy girl selling 'The Big' issue.
Gypsy approches and flashs 'The Big Issue' in my face.
I smile and confidently flash back 11 pence, the only money I have on me.
'Where you from?'
'Romania'
how you doing.....
she walked off. It was a half hearted attempt and we lingered around scoping the Gypsies movements. Dont ask why. I must be taken in by the romantic Gyspy image. ha
I dont remember arriving in Leicester sq. But we did.
We promtly found a outside table and got tucked into the pizza buffet. Also gt talking to 3 Greeks about the usual thing. Feta, Musaka, Nodis. The few basic things i know about Greece. Roger was on top form. He did his best to talk clearly and slowly. And he repeated 'do you understand' every other syllable. They must have thought, ' what a bunch of drunk twats'.
About 9ish we called it a day without making it to a bar. A bottle was enough and we left.
Today i keep having a taste of Whiskey at the back of my throat. No hangover but just tired which sucks cos i'm doing another 9-8 at work tomrw. shit.
other news?
not really. got my tickets come through and currency too and booked a hostel for 4 days in Guadalajara for £5 a night. not bad man. i like traveling on the cheap. Always fun to see how cheap you can go without compromising your life.

2 more weeks working at the college. must say it has gone quickly but have had many laughs. They are a great bunch. September was worn me down to the bone but thats what its about i guess. Met a load of mental students working there, many hot chicks have been in and out too.
One geezer, this massive boy of about 16 who looks like a mini Mike Tyson assulted a bus lady. They have a lady on the buses checking the runts for tickets etc trying to keep the studnts in line. This gorilla basically pinned her down to the floor by her neck. Not on really. Esp to a female. dam. I'd prescribe electric shock therapy to such a hulk.
Anyway he came in with his application form for a bus pass. I recogmised his ugly mug and alerted manager who got the director of student services in who in turn kicked the beast out. Apparently he was suspended from college already. we only started th new term 10 days ago. holy shit. I was rightly kept in the backroom til the monster was haulded out. Ok i could have a go at the beast if i had too in self defence but i'm not fucking things up just before i go to Mexico.
i'll be leaving work on oct 7th. my work mates want me to come back on the 11th for frewell in the locl pub. am a bit scared about what will happen to me. they are nuts.
anyway, its been a lovely sunny day. weekend went too fast, cant believe work is tommrw. mustering up the motivation is difficult at this stage. need a break, need some fun in the sun
