Hey all, sorry for the week-and-a-half-long delay since uploading my last post. I have had a ridiculous amount of maths work to do, a music essay and helping to manage a company, which, while it's helped to provide some good fodder for this blog has taken up a large amount of my time. Anyway.
I'm sure that a great many of you are fans of Harry Hill's TV Burp? Well, my dad managed to get tickets to see the live recording of last week's episode on thursday evening! Great? Wrong.
In true BBC style (even though it's broadcast on ITV, it's filmed at the BBC) tickets were given out online to a plethora of people (in other words, too many tickets are given out to account for people not showing on the night), meaning that seats are strictly first come first served. Long story short, me, my father and my friend Bethany ended up waiting outside the BBC Television Centre near Hammersmith for two hours (as the last standbys) in the cold, dark, wind and rain, going through practically airport security, only to be sent home because we couldn't get in after all. Fun. Especially considering I'd had to abandon my company meeting that day (which I don't like doing) and most of my youth group.
It wasn't a totally wasted evening, however, as we now have priority tickets for the last show in the series :D
Also worth noting is that on said thursday, I ate sushi. I realise that as being mostly raw fish and seaweed, most people would consider it as being more a fishing boat accident than a meal, but I would really recommend it :)
Something I don't understand: WHY on EARTH is everyone complaining about those twins on the X Factor? If you don't want them to get through, don't vote for them! It's not rocket science! Also, complaining when one of the judges votes in their favour? What is the point?! Ofcom have better things to deal with than someone's controversial, but completely valid opinion. Also, in talking about them, you're doing what Simon Cowell wants you to do, and publicise them. If they do win, Cowell wouldn't need to spend a bazillion pounds on advertising when he's got an army of publicists (YOU) talking about them at every opportunity! If you wanted them to fail, what you ought to be doing is avoiding talking about them, not creating goodness knows how many Facebook pages complaining about them and talking about them to your friends. If you're planning on retaliating with "you're talking about them, Lowri! You're not taking your own advice!" I really don't care. I don't give a dam about who wins these shallow programmes about exploiting innocent members of the public. I just wanted a sound-off about how idiotic people can be. Anyway.
I think it's probably about time I went to bed, so I'll say good night.
Lowri :)
