What The Therapist Said….
A couple of months ago I endured a particularly monumental and eye opening comedown from an especially life affirming Bangface Weekender. Now usually the Bangface comedown much like the Glastonbury comedown are in a league of their own in terms of crippling intensity. A unpredictable mix of serotonin depletion, lack of sleep, and far too much fun always seem to have an interesting aftermath of paranoia, sleep paralysis, psychosis and sometimes-suicidal tendencies. This one however was a lot different, and that wasn’t just because of the large course of Xanax and Valium I ignorantly proscribed myself with by the handful.…
Women 4
‘Bruv! last night I pissed in the mouth of a bird with a Nazi Reichstag chest tattoo’. That was the text I had sent to Meddler 3 years ago that acted as the catalyst for this blog. Humored by the tale she suggested I should write about my sexcapades and after a lot of well received reviews from my Facebook friends I got a bit carried away with it and now after 3 years it’s got me shags, lost me job opportunities, pissed some people off, made some people laugh and even had me referred to as ‘that sex writer guy’…
2015
As I sat down to write what has become my traditional annual review I did immediately think ‘blimey am I writing another one of these already?’ That may have been partly to do with last year’s entry being a near 20,000 word confessional stream of conscious that took me over a month to write and was an experience that at the time I found very therapeutic. Writing it helped me process a lot of what was an absolute emotional roller coaster of a year and I recommend it to anyone who’s had a challenging one. This year has been alot…
Men
Today is the 31st October 2015, which means that I am exactly at the midway point of my 20’s. So in the time honored tradition I want to mark this probably not all that significant landmark with a reflective blog post about men. No this aint a coming out post, although I don’t think it would be too much of a surprise if I was to come out of the closet. God knows I’m not achieving much as a straight man. But this is infact a toast to the men in my life who have supported and shaped the person…
Boomtown Fair 2015
About a year ago I wrote a glowing 5 star, 10/10 review for BOOM festival in Portugal. Whilst attending that many of my friends were at the annual event of Boomtown Fair. A festival I’ve attended on and off since 2010. When we first decided to go, it was a tiny festival with a tasty little ska lineup and the promise of a small town built in the gardens of an estate in Buckinghamshire. 5,000 tickets went on sale, but only 3,000 were bought. Without going too much into it, it was a superb festival experience and as a result…
Pervert’s Guide to Thailand
Whenever people ask me whether Thailand was anything I expected it to be, I always respond with the same couple of answers. The first being that I wasn’t expecting it to be so hot all the time. It only gets as cool as 25 degrees at night time – the average temperature being about 33 every single day. The second being that I always had an understanding that this country was renowned for it’s prostitution and willing ladies but I didn’t for a second think that every single town and in some cases villages I was to visit would have…
Women III – 2014 Review
A mate of mine said it weren’t a good idea to assess my life as an annual thing as often as I do. I guess being as old fashioned as I am I just like to see a new year as a time for new beginnings and a good way to asses the developments in my life. A bit like how a football team assesses it’s performances on how well they did in a season… Well the 2013 season for me was always going to be a transitional one and it was with good results when I look back on…
Lost in Pattaya
Suck my cock’ A ladyboy says to me as I walk out of my hotel. With a zombified stare in her eyes she takes my hand and oddly gropes her friends tit with it. I smile and make a gesture that I aint interested, this doesn’t stop her from keeping hold of my hand and walking down the street with me for a bit more though. I manage to shake her off and head down Soi 7 of Pattaya. A city seemingly made entirely of brothels and bars. Along the street I am deafened if not a bit overwhelmed by…
Cunts
This is the second draft of an entry I’d near enough all but completed before my version of office decided it wanted to crash and delete all my work. I’m usually very good at saving my work as I go, but ah well. This entry is a request from a very fun lady I have very recently become friendly with. I assure you the first version was loads better then this. I often find that when it comes to appreciating the figures of women in all parts of daily life it’s the 3 usual suspects that are commented on and…
Sun, Sex and Psychedelics – BOOM 2014 review
‘The fucking gauze was in there the whole time!’ I laughed to myself whilst sat on a rock on the shore of the lake. I’d just spent a further 40 minutes trying to track down another stall to sell me a sheet for my pipe after I assumed I lost it whilst fucked along with the second pack of fags in the space of a few hours. To be fair to myself I had spent the day drinking, and the evening shoveling trips and pills inside of me. ‘fuck it’ I thought, just bang the lot. I perched myself onto…
