WhooHoo! Exams are over! 3 in one week - not funny. My last exam took place early on Friday, which meant I got to the pub for noon! Did a tour of some of the bars on Bristol Road and ended up staying in the Brisol Pear (aka the Railway) until kicking out time. Then me and a couple of mates came back to an empty house and stayed up 'til 4 watching some old music vids, doing lines, smoking weed and necking my vodka/lemon balm special cocktail. Always seems a good idea at the time. It never seems a good idea when you finally drag yourself from your pit. It's even worse when you recall what you got up the previous night! Ah well, I won't see them until September so everything should have calmed down by then. We were all going to meet up next Friday but I think I'll give it a miss and run straight home after work. Someone warn Bluetitch not to visit Switzerland and instead spend some time on this particular Blog We've been on standby for some form of terrorist attack since the attacks on the twin towers. One form of bomb, we're warned, could be a "dirty bomb", a crude nuclear device designed to scatter nuclear waste over a wide area. Security at key nuclear sites has been stepped up. So how the feck did they fail to see the cute ickle bunnies digging holes at a nuclear waste site? What if they are highly trained terrorist rabbits? They could be everywhere! Thorpe has made a lovely track sampling The Pinball Song from Sesame Street. A friend of his has made a video featuring the footage that accompanied it on the show. It's great, a funky nostalgia fest. The Dark Side Does Disco Think you know music? Check out the Music Correspondent's thoughts on your favourties. Bike stuff Looks like this years MotoGP is going to be fun. Sete Gibernau has taken his third MotoGP win this season at the third round of the world championship in Assen. The race was delayed by rain and the standing water made visibility difficult when it did get under way. Gibernau held the lead throughout the race but had to work hard to break away from the two Hondas of Max Biaggi and Valentino Rossi, eventually finishing over 10 seconds ahead of the Biaggi. Troy Bayliss was looking to take third place but went in too hot in an attempt to take Rossi, running wide in to the gravel trap and finishing the race in ninth. The Yamahas of Carlos Checa and Olivier Jacque took fourth and fifth followed by Ducati’s Loris Capirossi, who started the race on pole. Colin Edwards took seventh on the Alice Aprilia with Alex Barros nine seconds behind in eighth, but Edwards team-mate Noriyuki Haga highsided two laps before the end of the race. There's an interview with Craig Jones on the Triumph ValMoto site. This lad is going to be a world champion soon.  |
