Your past-times, consisted of the strange and twisted and deranged

whooa didn't realise it had been so long since I posted a blog, i'm rubbish!
Had a hectic few months though with exams and moving my stuff out of TWO houses (my mums home and halls) into a flat , and then FINALLY getting the internet after waiting on Sky's stupidly long waiting list. but blah blah

Since beginning of July I've been working at BBC Radio Nottingham as a Blast Reporter and have loved every single minute :) Been working with Dean Jackson and the supreme team on The Beat (BBC Introducing...) and the webteam Dan and Neil.

Went to Summer Sundae festival on Saturday and I honestly couldn't say one bad word about the festival! No queues for toilets or food, a bigger range of food than most festivals, (like authentic proper indian curry cooked in a HUGE dish) and a village-y area for the stalls, cider tents and more food stalls away from the arena area. Lovely atmosphere...
Highlights were watching Frontiers play the biggest stage to date, and watching them being asked for autographs at the end, top moment!
Local leicester lads Minaars gave an electrifying and up-beat performance which got people in the festival spirit.
Watching Frank Turner do a couple of acoustic tracks in The Beat's own tent
Running to watch Charlatans after the show with The Beat's supreme team in time for 'The Only One I Know'


Just listening to Arctic Monkeys live at Maida Vale on Radio1, love the new album Humbug and I won't hear a bad word said about the loovely sheffield lads, even if Alex is living in New York now! Bah Humbug! But yet they're still down to earth. Have you heard them in an interview latley? Modest and shy to fuck, despite their imminent success! Love it...and how can you not love the fact the new album has been produced by the sexy Josh Homme! It comes out next week and I'm looking forward to seeing how the general public and press take it.

Off to London tomorrow to see Pearl Jam at 02 arena, can't wait.
