7:07 PM 5000221006046 I'm now two weeks in to the whole barcoding trip, and the whole thing has been more exciting than juggling chainsaws with Dave Benson Philips on a rollercoaster. Today we went to a haunted house in search of a cursed barcode from the 16th century, and tomorrow we're attending a seminar on Barcode Battler. The fun never ends! My birthday on the weekend was fun... We went to TGI Friday (my favourite), Yates' where we met Sam from uni, and then to Mean Fiddler where the tunes were immense. I even got a free beer from the DJ woman and a song request (I had to fight the urge to say 'Walk Like An Egyptian', and instead opted for The Clash). The live music was supplied by a Scottish indie outfit called The View. Sadly, they didn't get me moving. There were 7000 Scots in the crowd shouting "The View, The View, The View are on fire!"... I responded with "The View are f****** dire"; a little harsh, but I couldn't think of anything nicer that would rhyme. Never mind, there were plenty of great tracks after, including my current favourite song 'You Only Live Once' by The Strokes. The only downside of being in London at 4am is the inevitable night bus home. Not this time! Met a lovely Slovakian girl at the bus stop, and we got into a conversation about Jefferson Airplane. She said she works in Covent Garden packing sauce, must make a note to start stalking her. We also spoke to a Welsh girl called Hanna on the bus, but she was less attractive so didn't really pay that much attention. I was so tired yesterday that I spent all day horizontal eating cherry bakewells and watching Curb Your Enthusiasm. Larry David is officially Hero #1 for me now, I laughed so hard there were crumbs and splashes of tea all over my bed. If it wasn't for the need to go to the loo I would have probably got deep vein thrombosis. So that's it then... I'm 25. Leave a comment ::

She packs sauce for a living!? WHAT!? OK, seriously, you have to stalk her if only to clarify exactly how someone 'packs sauce!'
Another reason to stalk her is the fact she had a bum that would make Santa cry. Seriously, it was brilliant.
Mmmm... Saucy!
Semi alcohol-free. Only had a couple of beers during the gig, which as everyone knows, doesn't affect you because you end up sweating it off.
