I'm genuinely more gutted about the prospect of my dad breaking up with his girlfriend then he is!

Then my own girlfriend has fucked off to NYC whilst I'm left unemployed and alone in a 5 bedroom house...what the fuck is going on?

Women....pah.

Hello, and thankyou for taking the time to read this!

On April 2nd I'm going to hitch-hike to Morocco in order to raise money for Link Community Development.

Link Community Development are committed to providing sub-Saharan African children with access to education. They strive to provide training to teachers and means by which children can receive an education.

Hopefully with your help I can raise £350 to donate to this worthy cause. I am organising donations through my justgiving site: http://www.justgiving.com/Tom-Harnett

The aim of the hitch is to thumb-down lifts in the hope of getting as close to Marrakesh as possible!

If you have any questions, please feel free to message me. For more information about LCD, click the link below:

Many Thanks!

I've never hitchhiked before, but here's what it would look like if I flagged down a ride using amazed man and a kitten :)

One of the things I've always wanted to achieve in my time playing ice hockey was to be man of the match.

Last night that happened. My team won our first game of the season 14-1 and I got a 94% save average and subsequently, was voted m.o.m. Even better, my girlfriend was there to see it.

I'm really proud of myself that I've managed to warrant my place on a better team this season and have made such a start.

: Clever title ftw.


Snow!

1/6/10 by BrockManson

Whoop-di-fucking-do.

I was meant to head back to uni today so I could hand in my dissertation and get some work & revision done. I don't even know who to blame, but is it too hard to grit the roads before the snow starts to fall? Seems like that would be the logical thing to do...

Anyway, I went outside for the first time in 3 days today. I'm really glad I did, there was an old man who frequents the pub I used to work in trying to walk home. I was walking behind him and was thankfully close enough to catch him just as he began to fall over. He walks with a cane, so he had no hope of getting home. I put his arm round my shoulder and walked him to his front door. Dead chuffed he's ok.

Hopefully it'll stop snowing enough to get me back to uni...please?



Since when did this show become a platform for the BBC to peddle it's bullshit shows and for no-talented wasters to whore themselves out for free publicity?

I mean come on, why the fuck am I going to donate money to a charity that is throwing the Doctor Who Christmas Special at me? I gave the spare change I had the other day to a collector for the NSPCC. Good charity, the awareness that they raise doesn't feature embarrassingly-scripted skits from popular shows. Hey did you know that Merlin is a really popular show on Saturdays? Don't forget Hollyoaks now, that's on too. What a great idea, they're paying to watch this anyway, let's show them what they're getting! Here you go you fucking morons; pledge a fiver to charity. Just make sure you stay tuned when we need the cash eh? No-one should allow John fucking Barrowman to disgrace himself on air, or for Tess I-can-fit-my-fist-in-my-mouth Daly to join him in reminding us that Strictly Come Dancing is still on. Disgusting.

I didn't donate last night out of principle. My money for disadvantaged children will still go to the freezing volunteer on the street corner who hasn't lost sight of what charity really is.



Yeah I reckon that's it. I'm fed up with it. I love working there, but I don't want any of the baggage that comes with my job anymore. I'm tired of people being arseholes, I'm tired of drinking so much, I'm tired of being unappreciated and I'm tired of having a crush on every goddam female colleague.

Sod it all, I'm going skating tomorrow, and have a holiday in Milan to look forward to. Get in.



That's right, as of tomorrow, I will be in Switzerland on my holidays! Huzzah! Whoop! Jolly good show!

A whole week of getting plastered and rocking out at Paleo Festival. I'll post a pic or two on here...maybe. I've been looking forward to this for awhile, plenty of bands at Paleo this year that I'm looking forward to seeing!

Alas, I don't know if I'll be able to get on the net much, but I sure hope I do. I'll be working on a storyboard or two regardless for future flash. It's about time I contributed more to the site really.

Oh hellz yeah, a holiday with the chaps! =]



Aka my dad's birthday! He's 50 today, an he's got a pretty decent haul of pressies from me actually. Cologne, Top Gear DVD, Pinot Grigio (white wine yknow) and a bar of soap that says "arseface".

Great big piss up at his local in Surrey. As it's Surrey, this probably means a few old ra-rars hunched over whilst quaffing their gin & tonics, and talking about how many times they've been to the races. I fucking HATE Surrey.

No doubt I'll be off my tits on Guinness & tia maria (try it, it's cracking), and avoiding my step mum. Why avoid her you ask? Because she always rubs me up the wrong way, and she's hoodwinked my old man into marrying her for his moolah (which is pretty much all gone). But I digress, I'm avoiding her because if I told her to go and fuck herself, it'd ruin the fella's birthday. That's a pretty shit thing for a son to do eh?

In other news, I've just hoyed £20 on Venus Williams to win the ladies' singles...although neither of the 'sisters' seem to actually be women. Serena's bound to win in straight sets now.

Reason for ban: I hate the black ones as well, but you don't see me making a parody topic about it do you? ;) - Dry-Ice

Dang. I was rather proud that I hadn't been banned thus far. Oh well. I'll whine about it here. *Shakes fist* Curse you Dry-Ice etc etc.

Anyway now to something more interesting; I got a car today! Ok, it's a 12-year old Citroen, but it goes. Barely done any miles either. I only need it for the summer to drive to training and back so I'm chuffed. Now I might invest in one of those ipod thingies so I can cruise around blaring our Soulja Boi and trying not to look white, just like everybody else who owns a shit car in this town!

Huzzah!



...and I'm pretty convinced I've done the wrong degree. Shit results but I passed the year. I'm really not a linguist it seems.

I'm trying to pack up all my stuff so it can be loaded in the van tomorrow. Can't believe that I won't be living in this house again though. I'm not necessarily sad about it, but there have been a few memories in this place. I won't be sorry to see the back of the people who live here though.

Trouble is I keep procrastinating on the laptop because there's just huge mounds of clothes and random junk everywhere. I just found 3 ready meals from Macaroni Grill in the wardrobe ffs. Lost count of the amount of ring pulls that I keep finding; it doesn't fill me full of confidence regarding my liver...

Boring blog is boring...
