October 02, 2004 - 1:10 pm A list of stuff I have done Okaaay. It�s Saturday and I have spent the morning in bed eating Hershey�s hugs and drinking irn-bru in order to stave off the hangover I have from spending time in the company of Lang, Tony and this man last night and drinking far too much of a drink called �grappa� that tasted like brandy flavoured nuts. No, not those kind of nuts. As it�s Saturday, and one is still in one�s pyjamas, I am lazy and have therefore stolen a list-style-all-about-me type entry from somebody else. So the idea is that there�s a ridiculously long list of stuff below and the stuff in bold is the stuff I have done. The stuff not in bold is the stuff that I haven�t done, or maybe am planning to do at some point in the future. Clear? Good, then let us begin. 01. Bought everyone in the pub a drink 02.
