    I'm not into tennis and I'm boycotting the Olympics so it's just the wait for the August footy for me

    I have a confession!

    I watched BB last night and quite enjoyed it:eek: ....quick I need help, I am planning to watch tonights program too.

    Must have something to distract me! After BB I watched the most fabulous concert on Sky which was a tribute to George Harrisson it was recorded in 2002 a year after his death and it was soo emotional.....sat bubbling at Paul Mcartney singing "Something". I love live music:D need to have a look to see who is touring.

    OH is going to see the Human League/Heaven 17 and ABC but I dont really fancy that. Need to see Morrissey again:D
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Evening all - Louise your kettle comment made me giggle :rotfl:

    Having a quiet evening here, drinking some wine, half watching the football with the sound off, doing the BBC online intro to Italian course, and writing my list of things to do for July ("July" starting on Monday for me cos that's when I get paid).

    Hi is all man;) but is a bit stuck in the 80's:D He went to see Gary Numan recently (I didnt go). His idol is Davis Bowie who I have to say is amazing live.

    But I have to agree that most of the stuff he listens to is pants.

    I saw Human League last year Lou and wasn't too impressed and Martin Fry too who was surprisingly good. wasn't really into either in the 80s - but did enjoy Mr Fry this time round.
