You now have my full attention.
Elvis Costello's "Blood and Chocolate" on the CD.

So - what do you want of me?

A review of the album
And enough witty banter to keep me awake.
Go.

Or what he said.

Not his best
But it's the one I dragged out of the attic.

Don't know where to start with Costello - he's done all sorts of stuff. Yeah, Blood and Chocolate is a good start - then My Aim Is True.

I liked his early stuff with Bud Abbott

It's alright.

Also, why is your music in the attic?

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Sat 25 Aug 2012, 21:37, Reply)

Because it is
When I ever get the time and money all the music will come downstairs.

I live in a flexible canvas.

You live in a tent?

+ badly painted

I live in an enormous fucked house
That is far too big for me and I move things around to dry bits whilst I slowly get it in order.

Fair enough
I'd keep the records in the room in which I was living, if it was me.

When I can afford the panels
They'll come downstairs.

At the moment I need to buy a new roof.

It's not all glamour being a slum landlord
Or whatever it is you do.

Oh boy it is.
There'll be a few students wandering into their flats next month with a smile on their face, because that's how I bring them in.

I have very little trouble because I make myself accesible and that's the basis I've built the business on.

It sounds as though your students live better than you?

( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Sat 25 Aug 2012, 22:16, Reply)

I''ve just moved 3 lads into one of my houses today
And they're boring bastards. Fuck me - I've done the walls in Wilko best emulsion and I'm going to have to pay your bond back in full.

Why can't they have a good time?
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Sat 25 Aug 2012, 22:23, Reply)

These poor bastards have to go to study now.
It costs too much for them to be able to enjoy themselves.
( tangledupinblue hairy badge with moving eyes, Sat 25 Aug 2012, 22:27, Reply)

I bought these places as an investment.
Yes, I'd rather they were filled by serious students. I have a link to the Geophysical department and a few of my flats are block-booked by PHD students.

Entertainment.
And possibly chocolate.

Oh I did a bad thing yesterday
Lunch - 2 family size Milka bars.
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Sat 25 Aug 2012, 21:37, Reply)

That sounds like a good lunch to me.
Lunch today was a family size bag of crisps.
( b3th Not shit. Not mod., Sat 25 Aug 2012, 21:39, Reply)

Didn't do too badly today
A monster cheese and onion baguette.
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Sat 25 Aug 2012, 21:41, Reply)

The clue is in "family size." Have a tomato as well. With lots of pepper.

If it helps
I didn't ahve any tea.

Soz, I'm not criticising. Eat what you like, if you enjoy it. I'm off for a couple of packets of crisps and some digestive biscuits in a minute despite eating chilli and salad and cheese not two hours ago.

Go oan yersel'.
