Please name them as I'm finding it very difficult to locate any good, new music.

The only one I really like at the moment is an up and coming singer / songwriter called Tom Skelly - his stuff is very atmospheric with more then a hint of Jeff Buckley.

I like: Royal Blood, East India Youth and Public Access T.V.

Please note though, that apart from East India Youth, the other two bands just sound exactly like bands from when I was 18. I think that's why I like them.

Popped into the offy last night and in a moment of insanity I purchased a Pot Noodle

Eating it now whilst watching QI

And bugger me

I'm actually enjoying it

(The Pot Noodle, not QI, I've seen this ep 78 times)

I've never in my life tasted a pot noodle. Am I missing something?

Just been clearing out 'the kitchen drawer' You know, we've all got one - 'Where's x?' 'In the kitchen drawer.'

Cleared out what seemed like (but wasn't far off)

2000 assorted rubber bands

Council leaflet giving bin collection dates for 2012/13

18 Ikea pencils (well, you have to get one each time don't you?)

14 assorted batteries. No idea if they are any good.

3 Sellotape cardboard rings with no Sellotape on them.

Various screwdrivers ranging from tiny 2" ones up to 12"

3 (yes, 3) tape measures

Instruction leaflets for things we threw away at least five years ago.

100 or so double sided sticky pads where the sticky had gone hard

Sellotape dispenser (useless, see above)

Ball of green garden twine

Assorted plastic bags containing screws and rawlplugs.

Unopened bag of Homebase small steel washers

Various bits of black plastic which I know I will need if I throw them away

3 small spools of cotton which somehow unwound themselves and laced all the above together!

And other things .. . . .

Did you find an Allen key? Allen keys are the jinkies.

Yep! There was an Allen Key in there!

They are made just up the road from me in Crumlin. Another great Welsh tradition! The hot ones are the best I reckon. When I was a student they were compulsory mid-night snack material!

Pot noodles rock and they're the only industry left in Wales except for singing.

And after all that you still didn't find your memory pills...

Next time I'm in Morrison I'll buy a pot noodle but I might hide it among the rest of the messages as I feel it's somehow a bit common.

Why would I need them ?

successfully assembled a laundry hamper frame by myself today. Rather impressed with myself because I got to look like the picture first go. Have somehow already lost the Allen key so hope it doesn't collapse.

Ben has finally purchased a food probe to help him perfect his roasts. It's led to a lot of probing jokes in the office.

Cool you can also use it for murder investigations, to find the temparature of corpses so you can tell when they died.
