About two months ago the young lad asked me if he could play my (expensive) acoustic and I told him 'no' and to play his own. I went to the kitchen o get him his breakfast and when I brought it through, there he was, pants around his ankles, mickey in hand pissing into the hole in the guitar. He is 6.

Did you pause and ask yourself, What Would Jordan Do?? ;)

I paused and considered what my auld lad would have done...but a solid beating is passé these days.

Going in to a small room and playing big filthy riffs with your mates at ridiculous volume. Man, that's the best.

Also the guitar-pissing child story is the most rock n' roll thing I've read this year. Fair play.

There are very few things as fun as this.  Especially when it's just in a jamming/creative stage and ye're under no pressure.

2 weeks Xmas hols. Goddam nice feeling. And instead of going on the batter, I rearranged the man-cave/recording setup.  So I have the satisfaction of that.

Going on the batter tomorrow, obviously.

Two weeks holidays kicked in here too.  Got some wallpapering done today and I foresee yummy Guinness on my immediate horizon :)

Yeah teacher holidays since 1.30, and not back til the 8th. A weekend if acting the prick with the young lad and then home on Monday to put on a stone under the approving vigilance of my mammy. Happy days :)

Fires lit, beers in the fridge, music on.
Perfect.


Getting back into your own bed after a few nights away.  Currently a mattress on the floor as we are doing a bit of work on the new gaff but a pleasure none the less.

Walking out the door from work and lighting up a fag. The first drag is exquisite.

When the fridge is full but it's cold enough to just leave a box of beers outside

A cheese toastie with a few beans on top is one of the best lunches a man can have.
