Thanks for anyone that actually took the time to read this, I’ve had a great year, here’s hoping next year will be even better.
I just tidied my room and for some reason I decided to make a photo tour of it, probably because I’m a dick. It’s still fairly new and I’m waiting on a few posters to get delivered for it.
So this is where the magic happens.
And by magic I mean masturbating furiously.
Just like when I tagged personal posts I think it’ll mostly end up being pizza again.
Hoping to do some sexy radio things with the boys from Struggletown Records and some of their bands to help get them some exposure.
Just need to sort out some things for the new show before I send out all the emails.
And as lovely as it was when I saw it, it made me realise what I was doing; going into an off-license to buy alcohol and return to my flat alone. That’s not right.
