Leaving the island

Waited and waited for a couple of friends today, nursing my pint for as long as I could. Turns out that they'd "forgotten" , although not convinced that was the case.

So was in the city centre anyway so thought I could maybe do some pressie buying. Little did I realise that my trip coincided with National Allow-your-17-Year- Old-Daughter-to-dress-like-a-whore Day. Did anyone else see these hordes of tart-ettes this afternoon? I believe that they were going to an under-18 club.

Spent a bit of time wandering around John Lewis (shudder) tried to go by the stairs to the customer service area to ask any Customer Service representatives a question. Got to the scary stair and felt like Truman trying to leave the island. So opted for the lift.

HMV must have been breaking the law with the number op people in there stupidly small shop. Every time I turned round I knocked over a pile of DVDs or got poked up the arse by a Wii accessory.

And talking about leaving the island - it seems that some blippers are leaving because they are worried about the changes that Joe is implementing. I am not sure why people are taking umbrage. I am sure very few people would have put in as much work as they have at blipcentral without a fee.
