...in the morning, it's nearly 3AM and I'm up at 6:30. Once we're in Manchester a full English is in order, then we're off for an adventure and we won't be coming back until Monday night! It's going to be AWESOME. I kid you not.
I've left this post a bit late but I really should go get 3 hours sleep so I'm all ready for the day ahead... I'll post again when I'm back and I can get everything in order.
See y'all later!

BARGAINS!
Everyone knows how ace it feels to buy something new, but it's a special feeling when you score an absolute bargain. I'm not talking about Quality Save and Home Bargains or Lidl and Aldi here... I mean an honest 'how the hell did I ever find that?' moment.
I decided I wanted to get a bass guitar because I don't have one, have never played one and always thought it'd be the kind of thing that suited me. I'm a big lover of unique items, I'd much rather have something that was crappy but unique as opposed to something amazing but well known. So I started to look around the net for something with a bit of character... I trawled eBay and found nothing that really tickled my fancy (one or two maybe, but they were obviously extortionately priced because the seller knew they were rare, even if they were poor.)
Eventually I decided to have a little peek on Gumtree for the first time in ages and found a guy who lived about 5 minutes drive from me selling a bass for £40 which was perfect - wasn't massively unique but I intend to strip it down and repaint and refit it, so that it's a bit more personalised. The cool thing though was that he was also selling a guitar - a rather fine guitar, for a mere £90. I couldn't resist. I managed to get it down to £120 for both and now I'm rather satisfied.
Feast thine eyes.
