Hangover so nasty I feel like someone has removed each cell in my body during the night and punched it. Drank lots of Carling Black Label (one of Britain’s most popular beers, I understand), which is a cunt’s drink. Weak-ass chemical fizz. Had about 6 pints at the wedding. Then went to Steve & Charlie’s [...]

For those of you with an eye for detail and good cross-referencing skills will be thrilled to hear that I found my copy of “D.M.S.R”, and just in time for the wedding engagement tonight. It was located between the gatefold sleeves of The Beatles’ “Rock ‘n’ Roll Music”.
My cup runneth over. My thanks [...]

OK, quick dream. I was working as a slave for a large and eccentric Italian family. The bossy mother was telling me to clear the tables of the cutlery, plates and remains of the food etc. There were several of these tables in different rooms, and for some reason I am moving between them [...]

The more perceptive among you may have noticed that I sometimes make little alterations to the dairy after it has first been published, so that the diary that you read on Wednesday might be subtly changed by Thursday. I usually decide that a tweak of emphasis is necessary because I have said something that is [...]

Heavy rain. Strong tea. Room-bound and faffing. Critical-mass stage again in my living-quarters. The level of junk is such that it requires constant tidying to be able to cross the room at all. I have to take long but careful strides from one clear patch of carpet to the next. When people come in they [...]

Dreamt…something about a tiger… Might have been underwater, only partially visible. Big paws fleetingly visible in the foam. Can’t remember if the tiger was attacking us or if we were trying to save it.
Then I was in a town square and somehow I’d got a pigeon on a rope, like a lead. [...]

Large young man in the Salvation Army. Member of staff for some years. You wonder why. Going on about his diet: “All I had for dinner was a sandwich, a packet of crisps, some biscuits, and a drink.” Sad-eyed lady in early old-age (who opens the shops sometimes but is always late and flustered) advising [...]

Dreamt about a gun. Think I was cleaning it or something…
Then I was told to go and select some footballs of a specific type from the school gymnasium.
Next I was doing an UM gig with Dave Henson. I was really crap and drunk and awful. Kept forgetting words and having to [...]

Went to the LEAPS gig to see Hot Chip, amongst other things. Everyone who was anyone was there, and many who weren’t. As the band got themselves ready I found myself sat at the back alone with my pint, my view gradually becoming totally obscured by the bodies of University students. Alex makes an unlikely [...]
