hahaha, good man, hate the stuff meself too. But at least my partying buddy is back soon and then i’ll be outta this so solid hell and back in the world. But thats a toughie, does garage breed rudes or does rudness breed garage? dunno- theres always been rudes around so perhaps they spawned it?

oh yeah,

clean forgot, my little bro is a JHO at Poole General and there are some wicked parties up that way.

hey hey,

alright, seems fair that i put something back into a scene that has pretty much blown me away this summer..

next paycheck i’ll sort out the cost of a few odds and sods.. Drop me a PM or something and we’ll arrange something for the next few weeks.

I’m a courier too :surprised :horay:
Got 4 wheels – yellow, can’t miss me in da countryside innit (not always a good thing)

Big respect mate, us couriers have a hard time and get treat like shit mostly. But – the upside is i get to drive around norfolk, get some fresh air, see plenty lush scenery, meet interesting peeps,listen to me choons, smoke/eat/drink when i like, and, as long as i get the job done, they leave me the fuck alone! :bigsmile:

Also, i have got some lovely pics on my mobile, then put onto laptop, keepsakes of my travels! bit of an amateur with computing, haven’t been brave enuf to post any yet.
Couldn’t go back to working indoors, stuck in one place now, no way.

I have a theory (plenty time to ponder life, whilst on road) that maybe its a certain type of person who suits this job? I really believe that i am better off on the move, have brief and pleasant interaction with customers (mostly!) and not in one place long enuf for people to get too curious about me,and they get the best of me! and vice versa! Any thoughts on this anyone?!

:rant: Yeh u know that. I love driving, wish i could drive forever! It is one way of travelling a bit, even if only to the next county lol! But – If they knew me toooo well, they mite wonder if i should be doing this job! If they knew what i get up to at weekends lol. Well, security is a big part of it.
But . . .

I AM NOT DODGY! I DO NOT STEAL! I CAN BE TRUSTED!

(I put my heart and soul into the job, do the best i can for the company, and the customers. Often with added ‘tears before bedtime’!)

Society in general tend to think that if you take any drugs, or listen to certain styles of music, then u must be ‘up to no good’.

Also, for a woman of 40 something years, some view my lifestyle as ‘wierd’. :crazy_fre Mind you, i don’t know anyone my own age who loves avin it to heavy basslines all night:horay: , or mixin it up at home til i like!!! :horay: Shame. Boring fuckers!:rant:

AM I BAD? SHOULD I GO STRAIGHT TO HELL TO SUFFER ETERNAL DAMNATION?!

Sorry didn;t mean to shout, forgot some peeps may be delicate at mo. I stayed in last nite :bitter:

I AM NOT BAD, I HAVE JUST BEEN MISREPRESENTED IN THE PRESS!

i do a bit of many things, being pregnant being the main thing…but also volunteer in a country park managing the area and making it nice for city folk to come and trash………………….

Mines a mixture of manager, customer support, IT, electronics and engineering……like most people I tend to make it up as a go along !

Thanks GL, your words are really appreciated. Sometimes you need some positive feedback from others to keep the balance right. Too much negativity from the world grinds you down sometimes (as you could probably guess from my earlier posts/rants!). I feel loads better after reading that! :bigsmile:
Now point me 2a party someone, i feel an attack of rebellion coming on! :crazy_fre
PLUR, group hugs, you know the score, and all that other stuff thats not cool anymore lol!
:horay: :horay: :horay:

I work for Voodoophone, building cell sites. I’ve been in this industry for over five years now – since I “retired” from soundsysteming (ie we lost the all night license at the Boxing Club). My original backgorund is construction, so it seemed relevant to me. Nowadays, I drive a desk, controlling a bunch of installation contractors fitting internal systems into our corporate customer’s buildings, eg Canary Wharf etc.

Over the years, I’ve built several hundred sites on rooftops, inside buildings, on the street and in the fields. What always makes me laugh is seeing venues we have partied in over the years. One example was a really tall building in East London – from it I could see four previous party venues, including one that was still well tagged (NYE 96 I think) and one that had been transformed from the Green Man pub into a travellers inn!!

Big up to all the couriers – several of my crew and pals were/are couriers…the best was Jock, who used to work for the yellow van company, and who Orange Disco supplies got really paranoid cuz he was delivering several 1210s with a big OOOPS! sticker on the back of his van. His boss knew what we did, but had to stop Jock using the van when we got pulled coming out of Steart Beach (97/98 time). However, when he got a new van, which had Irish plates on, he was able to buy his own plate when it got re-registered in UK… V100 OPS.

Someone came up to me at the Boxing Club, and went “did you know that someone has your sound system name on their van?”. “yes” I answered, “that guy over there!”….

Anyways, having keys to the compounds found in many fields close to party venues has always seemed like a good excuse for being there – just a shame I don’t do parties no more 🙁

BUY MY RIG (see elsewhere)

I am (suprise suprise) a psychiatric nurse who works shifts

(hence the screen name,I was lacking in artistic creativity the night I joined)

I work in a nhs drug and alcohol detoxification unit that also runs a primary rehabilitation program for anyone who wants abstenance and are motivated to change

It pays the bills, isnt an office job and I am lucky enough to get to meet some kind, caring and great people – and occasionally some not so, in the area I work in I guess I get to see people at their most positive when they come in as they’ve made a decision to stop – whether that decision lasts is their choice – I’m not here to judge – but :horay: :horay: with the respect (we all need some!)

I’m in IT, predicatably…
