Well, my house is full of completely useless gadgets. But that looks brilliant!
And it even has a list of nicknames:
"Nut Wizard Nick Names:

nut picker, nut roller, gum ball picker, nut picker-upper, basket nut tool, nut grabber, yard roller, walnut roller, walnut tool, nut tool, lawn sweeper" :lol:

Oh, if only I hadn't just already spent a fortune on amazon today. :wink:

Local elections today in Belgium. I'm really curious about how much the nationalist - read: fascist - party will have grown this time. At the previous elections (for the parliament of Flanders) they were the biggest, with 33% of the votes. :shock:
Well, at least I voted for the good ones. 8)

I'm pissed off but at the same time amused by things

Tonight we had a gig at an IRISH PUB. We played an acoustic set because that's what they wanted. In the break the DUTCH barlady told us we should play more IRISH music and until then the only non-re;ated irish song had been Knocking on Heaven's Door.

Halfway our second (alhtough they knew we were going to do two sets) set she said we should do two more songs before the break so I kindly told her to fuck off and go suck her boyfriends cock and I packed my stuff.

As I was having another pint in another pub my other bandmates came up to me telling me they paid us 100 euros for the gig which only lasted an hour hahaha. I know it's bad but still that was the loveliest kebab I've had after we were paid 100 euro for something we thought we would be paid for :lol:

Pete Doherty inspires clothing line

Post Tue Nov 07, 2006 4:28 pm

"Babyshambles plan special gig to launch new gear
Pete Doherty has inspired a fashion line by Manchester clothes label Gio-Goi.

The Babyshambles frontman is set to launch the label's Rock'N'Roll spring/summer 07 collection at a secret gig in London next month.

Speaking about his link up with the label, Doherty said: "Gio-Goi are on the fashionista manor. They've tumbled their gain; I love the clothes!"...

The collection, inspired by Doherty, will be available at London's Selfridges store from December 7 before going nationwide in January 2007."

Now there's an idea. What about Pogues-inspired fashion? It's what we all want, ain't it? :)
