Wow - less than a week until Glastonbury - I'm extremely excited. Go on - somebody knock me out, somebody knock me out until glastobury - a short coma would do it - but not one of those ones with brain damage or loss of movement. That would be the definition of 'backfiring' if I awoke from my peaceful coma to the sound of a car beeping waiting to take me to the festival and I'd forgotten how to walk - that would be SHIT. Actually forget the whole coma thing, I'll just sit it out.

Just finished a contract at CHANNEL 4 yes - CHANNEL 4. Pretty impressive huh? And do you know what? I actually enjoyed it - no complaints at all. I mean I enjoyed it as much as you can enjoy being imprisoned for 40 hours a week in a stuffy office in Victoria with terrible coffee - but really it was as good as it gets. Nice simple work, plenty of it, relaxed about hours, nice people, no meetings, cool website, TV At my desk!! yes and at EVERYONE'S desk - you just get to sit there with the telly on watching whatever - how great is that? Although there isn't very much on in the day - even on cable. It's amazing - Sky TV really hasn't changed at all in about 20 years. Apart from the odd new HBO show or whatever it's all exactly as I remember it. MASH, Frasier, Cheers, the Simpsons, friends - it just goes on and on. What a pointless waste of time SKY TV is - and to think so many people must sit glued to it all day and all night. Just the same endless crap again and again and again. I'm certainly not against TV - I still watch alot of downloaded shows - but some shows are a real artform. I think the sooner TV becomes downloadable or 'on demand' the better. Even the most avid TV junkie would think twice about actually downloading some of these shows.

I have to admit to watching a bit of Big Brother during the day - and it's the LIVE coverage. These people are awful - listening to these people converse is like hearing a circular saw go though aluminum. All they do is bitch and complain ALL the time! How spoilt do these people have to be!? I can't believe how utterly pathetic they all are. I remember really liking the first series - that girl Anna & Darren were genuinely funny and the house seemed to have a really great atmosphere. Now they just get these fucking morons in who spend the whole time complaining about every little fucking thing that comes into their mind. Is this really better television? Is this what people really prefer than a bunch of ordinary people having a laugh. Reading that back - it's all awful television really - but BB just seemed to have more of a spark back then.
