Well now

Well now is right. I havent been on here in quite a while. Ive been really busy with work and of course that feckin christmas thing thats going on. I did manage to take in 4 hours of the extended edition of Return of the King last week, wow really added to the movie. Tomorrow morning Im off to review Lemony Snicket, which Ive been waiting for ages for. Then the ol Red Xmas party Friday night.

Last night was a late one, didnt get home till quite late, after 3 to be precise. Working on an ol Santa sketch. Im sure most of you remember it from last year when we had Psycho Santa.

Out tha gap, laters!

Xmas carry on

Well, we got around to it on Saturday afternoon. Bought a feckin big ol Christmas tree. We had to hack off a bit from the top as it was too tall, and we're now out of decorations...so more have to be bought over the next few days. Decorating the tree and the mess was a pain in the ass but what harm its getting there.

I must admit I have yet to get in the Xmas spirit. Probably not in the frame of mind yet as this is the first year in the new house. Hoo Haa!

Hi folks. Man its been a busy few days, been writing a new sketch for Xmas and its taking longer than I thought. Steve Guttenberg (Mahoney from Police Academy amongst many other movies) on next week, Keith Barry, Terri Irwin and god only knows what else. So its looking to be a helluva windup towards Xmas.

One of the stranger things to ever happen on air, happened last night. Well besides not having proper contact with VJ (tech issue, small thing but frustrated the crap outta me) this lady rang in and offered to cover him in yogurt and lick it off and then........yeah theres more...straddle him. Twas truly bizarre, but very entertaining judging by all the texts from people after she got off the air.

The weekend is here...thank god!!!!! Granted Ill be writing for a bit of it. For the rest of it, Christmas tree buying...........first time for everything I suppose. First Xmas in the new house, first time to buy a Xmas tree etc.etc.etc.etc............................etc.etc.

I robot will be on sale later on, so no doubt more money spent on DVDs :) Thats about it really................So I should drop by over the weekend!!!!

Late N Live Top 5 signs you know its under a month to Christmas (29/11/04)

3 – You look at your bank balance

2 – Theres more alcohol in your house than in the local pub

Todays been a good day so far. Ive got alot written for the show, to give it that special Xmas feel. Possibility of some really BIG names (ya dont wanna take a hit from that one mate) coming on the show as well, so fingers crossed. Our monday night Psychic last night was Elizabeth Joyce. It never ceases to amaze me the amount of single people and indeed relationship people who ring in, to find out about their love life.

Im slowly starting to prepare my Xmas list...and I mean slowly. The most important thing in my house for the next few weeks will be deciding what sort of tree to get. Maybe we'd get a real one, if that damn robot would clean up the mess.

Heres yer wodden bag. Im sure these used to be called chests

From my surfing around the place, I came across a pic of Godzilla getting his star on the hollywood hall of fame. Hes looking well. Also came across a Japenese Cedar bag, made out of cedar wood (obviously enough).
