Various evils and work

Various evils and various work related things, no evil work related things though... Just about ready to go on the relaunch of barflyclub.com, at last, this has been hanging around so long, there are so many people involved... even at this stage people are saying "you should have done this instead", but just where were they in the consultation stage. It's good in a way, as it'll mean lots of ongoing work. We're doing a bit of an audit of all the money earned by all the things I do, and apparently it's looking quite positive and profitable, that's good. Unfortunately popex is not very well right now, disk error I think, hopefully restarting it will sort things out.

Couple of work related musical things now, just listening to Led Zeppelin's Greatest Hits, there's a track on there I'm not terribly familiar with, "Trampled Under Foot" but chunks of it are the DEAD SPIT of Franz Ferdinand's Take Me Out... track it down and listen to it now! It's work related as one of our companies manages the band (FF, not LZ).

Now to the evils, London is not a nice place at all I can tell you... a mate had his flat turned over last week, and while most of his stuff was stolen a few nice things were left behind, but deliberately smashed. What's that all about? Then yesterday our flatmate was robbed - while she was in a pub someone took her purse, took the notes, cards and pound coins (but not the change) out, then put the purse back in her bag... why not just take the purse and run? Nothing else was taken from the too, it's a very bizarre tale.

Neither of these really compare to Unlucky Man's situation, he had had guns pulled on him this week, in daylight... read all about it...

but this is the way of life

loads of bands rip off good bits of the old grates...which is why i dont have an awful lot of time for bands which sound like a slightly insipid version of the beatles/rolling stones/led z etc etc

as for londahn village being shit...this is true...i wish they would do something much more meanerer to burglars cos i hate them - having been burgered myself it's no fun i can tell you.

Over to you, discussion about anything local, but please be considerate... Folkestone on TV, Kent gigs, Find a flatmate, rent a room, property queries, current news, what's new, local events, for sale, local services, what I like about Folkestone, ask questions, offer advice, plug yourself... the more it's used the more useful a resource it will become. If you want a gig listed click here to add it (fixed now!), or just click here to post a message...
