so long, and thanks for all the fish.

[Tommy BOO]

as some of you already probably know, i'm leaving to england tomorrow. yes, tomorrow - i find it quite hard to believe it actually. now i'm off to work in less than 2 hours and i come back home late in the evening (10pm), and i must be ready before 11am tomorrow. i'd better start packing soon...!
i will be staying at my friend's house in windsor (just outside east london) so if anyone lives somewhere nearby i'll definitely meet up for a drink (or two... or more).
i'm going to see the mighty bravecaptain play at london spitz on saturday (31st july) - should be good! i'm also going to buy the new album there if they sell it, so i think i'll post a little bit something about those at some point during my trip.
it's a very good thing that martin has arranged this tour at the end of july - that's very close to the beginning of the football season - i decided to stay for another week so that i'll see 3 matches of my beloved barnsley too! milton keynes (away), bristol city (home) and luton town (home). really looking forward to this season, we have a whole new squad and lots of new good players, should be a good season.
i won't be back home until 15th august and soon after that i'll be pretty busy because i'm moving to another city and then starting another time taking project again.

i won't disappear completely, i just won't post as much as normally.
fuck it - you won't even notice that i'm gone!

take care everyone. keep on posting. x

Are you driving through Crewe at all. Myself and Vanilla Ice share a flat above a chippy on Gatefield Street almost opposite the Limelight. Vanilla can sort you out a copy of the new album if you haven't already got one. He's still got a fair few copies to shift.


Hammer over and out.

[tomatless]

I got you under my skin
I got you under my skin
I got you under my skin
I got you under my skin
I got you under my skin
I got you under my skin
I got you under my skin
I got you under my skin

Tommy, yer a bit of a legend. A mad Finnish Barnsley supporter.

I hope you enjoy England.

I was in england for the first time in my life two weeks ago, and strangely I was in Martin's part of teh world...The Wirral, where I stayed in a village called Oxton. I was also in Manchester, Chester, Birkenhead, Liverpool, Leeds, York and some emmerdale type place up on the Yorkshire Moors called Coxcomb.

It was mega, but sadly I had no time to really relax as I was just being bumped around ICI in Runcorn and various Wastewater Treatment plants belonging to Yorkshire Water and United Utilities. I'm going to go back, beer is good and cheap in the north of england, and the people were really sound.

Some of the guys in ICI were telling some terrifying anecdotes in a real offhand fashion. The chemicals and near disasters that have come out of that place are mind-boggling, lakes of mercury, agent orange, clouds of chlorous escaping during the night and bleaching cows and birds.

Privatisation I think has left British sewage works in a much more delapidated state than their counterparts over here....errr I should really slip out of work speak.

Anyway the next time I come over I'll try and catch a gig or something.

[Tommy's Lover]

BYYYE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tomi is a cool guy. He came to my crib once and we smoked twelve spliffs together, drank a shitload of pints, like ten each or some such shit, and then we took five E's each and just like, you know, chilled the fuck out for the rest of the night. We both talked about football and women and about life in general. I felt like i had known him for years, like he was a missing limb. Tomi DUDE if youare reading this get in contact (you know who i am hehe). In the morning, i wiped my eyes and went downstairs. Tomi was there in his pants lying on the couch. We exchanged a glance and then i made him some tea and some fucking great toast, before he got on a train at dawn and shunted it back down to sunny London.
Sweet days man.

[bravecaptain]
