Things that annoy me about family reunions

Haven't done one of these in almost 5 months, but I finally have something annoying to talk about yet again.

So I was at an annual family re-union earlier this month that I haven't been to in a year or so, and lemme tell yuh, (As my buddy Jake says) it was an awkward breeding ground.

Basically, everyone is related to each other somehow, but you look around at everyone and you're like, "how?" There's so many kids and middle aged men that bare no resemblance to you or any of your more direct family.

Plus everyone had a cockney accent, and I have a fairly more east midlands-y accent so I sometimes found it hard to understand basic sentences being thrown at me from across the room.

Also, it can get quite awkward at first because no-one actually wants to talk to each other, then you don't want to actually talk to certain people because of their arsey ways from past reunions.

That's all I really have on that topic.

Stay tuned over this next season! I'll be back on the ball with this whole blogging malarky.

Goodnight people.

Olympics

I was going to do a massive title for this post involving the words 'London' and '2012 but I cba (Don't google what that means kids!)

So, I think we did a pretty damn good job at hosting them this year, and massive well done to Danny Boyle for the ceremony.

But when it comes to viewing the olympics with other people, it can be quite daunting when they spew out all their sporting knowledge whilst it's on, and all you can say is, "Ooh he was good wasn't he." or "Oh look she won that she did.", maybe even "The colours...".

In order to become slightly like this crowd, I sometimes cheered for another team like Japan, or Austria just so it looked like I'd watched past olympics and was very enthusiastic about different teams and such.

Another way to look like you know a lot about the olypics is to refer to olympians by their last names, so when watching the cycling, you'd go "Come on Wiggins!" or "You can do it Gong!" Then people will think you are familiar with athletes and therefore think you know lots.

But for goodness sake, if you are ever to do any of these things, do them in moderation, or people may assume you are the olympic oracle and begin asking you some difficult questions about the olympics.

It's been a mental battle these olympics. Gosh, olympics. Yeah.

Life Is A Cabaret (Old Chum)

20 days it's been. 20 damn days. Well that brief hiatus ends now!

To be honest I might just leave myself 20 days off every August because I'm so busy, unless there's something really hilarious I need to blab about on here.

So, summer is almost finished, and my oh my, has it been better than moderate. I have lots of individual funny things to post about which I will make into several other posts to beef up the post count for this month, cause at the moment it is looking quite pathetic.

So I'll see you in the other posts!

Bye!

Did you know...

Crinkle cut things don't actually taste better.

It's all a pack of lies.

Reasons why I am cool

I sometimes smell of nice

I have at least 2 friends I think

Most people like to be around me for more than 17 seconds

I am capable of falling down the stairs

The man at the corner shop sometimes makes small talk with me

I have disgustingly fashionable facial hair

The legion of rats in my bedroom hardly ever attack me anymore

Lampshades no longer make me cry on sight

Bye xox
