"There are not very many desires in life which we can actually meet. For instance, 'I want to meet the love of my life'. Probably not today! But 'I want a cup of coffee.' That I can do!" Chris Thile (Nickel Creek)
I've been able to get in and I'm an '07 graduate. As far as I'm aware our accounts are active until the end of October. [hr] "There are not very many desires in life which we can actually meet. For instance, 'I want to meet the love of my life'. Probably not today! But 'I want a cup of coffee.' That...
I second Twin Cinema (just amazing!) and The Last Waltz. Bellowhead are also fantastic. Would have to add Sufjan Stevens' 'Illinois', Wilco's 'Yankee Hotel Foxtrot' and Andrew Bird's 'The Mysterious Production of Eggs' also. [hr] "There are not very many desires in life which we can actually meet. F...
Aah, so glad I've left St Andrews and my South St flat right now. Trying not to be smug but failing...sorry. Guess some things are better outside the Bubble.

Well from their recent history it certainly seems as if they need a prod or two when it comes to their security measures. [hr] "There are not very many desires in life which we can actually meet. For instance, 'I want to meet the love of my life'. Probably not today! But 'I want a cup of coffee.' Th...
I thought I saw Sufjan Stevens yesterday which would have perhaps been the oddest sighting yet if I could be confident it wasn't just me being mental.

The online store was the first part of the business to be suspended so I doubt if they'll be able to switch back to it after administration but it all seems a little unclear at this stage so who knows? I feel awful for all the staff who aren't going to get their June paypacket - that truly sucks. [h...

My mother has just called me from our local HSBC branch in England where apparently the guy behind the desk had no idea what she wsas talking about and couldn't find any information about it on their systems. When she said she read about it in a certain publication that I'm too ashamed to admit we h...
Quoting rob 'f*ck off' wine boy from 02:57, 25th Jun 2007 I appreciate that this might not be possible, but couldn't you borrow cash off friends or family, pay off the overdraft, and then pay whoever you owe back over a time sans interest? My family have already given me a greal deal of financial a...
As an addendum, from The Times: HSBC says this will prepare students for life after University. Karen Garner, of HSBC, said: "This gets the message across that there is a cost to borrowing, and prepares graduates for the transition from student life to that of a young working professional." There ar...
I am officially FREAKING OUT. I have a £1700 overdraft and this pretty much completely screws up my post graduation plans. Looks like I have to head back home and temp like a bitch instead of getting any work experience or internships or anything interesting which quite frankly makes me want to die....
The AU page is horrific. Where the hell are the opening hours? This site is much more difficult to navigate than the last. What a bloody nightmare.

Bizarre Atheist - were you listening to STAR FM tonight? Because if not this is one hell of a weird coincidence... [hr] "There are not very many desires in life which we can actually meet.

Um, where the hell has everyone's personal information, interests, relationship status, etc gone? What is going on here? [hr] "There are not very many desires in life which we can actually meet.

I thought L'Orient was great until I heard that they'd stopped doing their Bento Boxes (great wee selection of rice, sushis, miso soup, etc) which were fantastic value and usually under a tenner. If that's true then I won't be going back and I'm really disappointed because their stuff was great. I'm...
I actually cheered when I finally rediscovered Hamilton Haccies' truly amazing iMovie on YouTube recently - I've been trying to find a copy of that for years! And I didn't realise until Paranoid's post that Tom's Diary was, in fact, the diary of one Mr d'Ardenne. D'Ard'oh! [hr] "There are not very m...
Yes - that amused me, as did the frequent assertion that she 'may well become the queen of England'. So by the time Billy gets to the throne Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland will be fully devolved and republican states then? Hmm. Whole program made me angry and even more despairing of the curren...
Hahahaha! Fantastic! Best comedic performances I've seen so far this year... [hr] "There are not very many desires in life which we can actually meet.
