About Me

optical legend ..inventor of the "wild retail weather scale" ...based on the amount of old people who mention the ffing weather to me on a daily basis..let me give you a grading scale1...."ooohh...change in the weather today"...normally quoted by people of both sexes ages 55-602.... "what a lovely morning..but the forecast is bad for later"...quoted by miserable housewives (well off, no job to worry about) half an hour before they pick the kids up from school in the family 4x4 NOTE... the school is well within walking distance for the cholesterolly challenged little darlings3. "It cant make up its mind can it ? ...women, late 70s often accompanied by a carer/concerned dependent....you get the gist ...where i work is full of old people and the all encompassing aroma of wee..well, maybe that last bits just me !!i must be the most unlucky man in the world....i have tix for hot chip only to find bsp are playing a low key london gig....i book tix to see my mate in finland in sept only to find bsp are playing the new 229 club with bookbooks when i am away...aaaarrrgghh!!! i hate it, its not fair...and i have run out of brilliantine mortality hair pomade..i should end it all right now !!
