And now…. Kerrang Radio Changes

Well I have started the summer holidays and it has been a week and I am quite bored, there are a few reasons for this boredom.

1. I have nothing to do
2. I can’t find work
3. I have no money
4. Emma Scott has left Kerrang! Radio
5. Nick Margerison has left Kerrang! Radio
6. and The Night Before is no more

The Night Before

Well I have been a Kerrang listener for a few years now and I have been an avid listener to The Night Before with Nick Margerison for just over a year and this week saw the end of it, I am sad to see it go as this was the best show that Kerrang has done and it is the only show where I have felt that I can speak my mind and not look like a blathering idiot. I have made one of the biggest contributions to The Big Show as I was the one that started #HowAreWe on twitter, this is the only Hash Tag that i have started that has court on and it is becoming ever popular with the old Night Before cult. I have been a caller on the show covering many topics from the starting of the Hash Tag to attempting to have a moan at El Presidente, Matt only failed due to the Thought experiment in which One is not allowed to say the word the is a letter between H and J, yes I is the word and the experiment is long over ( I lasted 4 days due to the fact that I was close to a mental breakdown), but I have found the show to be the way that I have stayed 3 steps ahead of the world on the big storys.

Soap Box

Hi there this is Stargatefreek here and i am getting up on my soap box about: Christmas decorations.

The ones at home went up the other day and it is a rare thing for there to be decorations to be up but it looks nice but that is the thing, why do decorations that you help in putting up look awful but ones that could be a perfect copy of our tree would look brilliant if it had been some one else that had put them up?

Yesterday the ceiling decorations went up they also look ok but they are in combination with the tinsel and the tree are cutting the Wi-Fi signal from the router and that means i am unable to stream videos and music on the web and the range of the signal has considerably dropped and if I did mot have the G+ MIMO Wi-Fi receiver my computer would be without internet.

THIS IS ANNOYING ME SO MUCH I COULD SNAP AT AMY MOMENT!!!!
