GLC DJ at "THIS FEELING" London 30th october 2009

Some of the boys went to England's trendy city o' London, to "This Felling", which is a club night run in association with popular red top news comic "The Sun".
The Club was full of people and the boys met a girl who had stuffed balloons up her top.
Maggot phoned a friend to tell them.

Everyone was there. Even well know druggie and mother of 4, Paula Yates was there and she has been dead for over ten years.

Maggot and Adam hung out back stage with the deformed and mentally damaged.
Mysti fell asleep at the decks as he played euphoric house music from the early 90s to confused clubbers.
The boys had a great time. "This Felling" is a great night out.

Dodgeball Championship, Pentwyn, Cardiff, 11th October 2009

Eggsy and I went to film the Dodgeball Championships for BBC Wales.

First we had to get in shape, so we started the day in the gym.

Then it was time to meet the Dodgeballers.

This is our team with the referee, we made friends with her thinking it might help us if a situation arose on the court.

Then it was time to take to the court and play ball. We put on our special tops so we could be easily identified.

These were some dodgeballers from Abergavenny. The lady on the left fell in love with Eggsy.

This team really got into the spirit of the game, I wish we had made as much effort.

Oh and about whether we won or not............it's the taking part that counts.

3rd October, Cardiff castle with the Stereophonics

We drove down the M4 to Cardiff to do a gig with the Stereophonics. It was inside Cardiff Castle.

This is me by the Norman "Keep" which is built on top of a Roman fort. There is also a medieval and Victorian wall that surrounds the castle and that's where we were playing.

We got there ahead of time so we went to the "New York deli" to get some food. They do some great Hoggies.

We brought them back and sat in frount of the massive stage that had been erected for the gig and waited for our sound check.


After the sound check we went to our "area", which was a 10 minute walk into the depths of the castle.

It was well medieval, I think they have filmed Doctor Who down there.

Eggsy's dad turned up and got on it. He is well safe.

So we got ready to go, it was a long walk back to the stage.

We went on and it was amazing doing a gig inside the castle walls.

The crowd were so so loud. It was a proper rave up. We did a quick 30 minute set with all the party bangers, and we got all the words right. Eggsy even got given a Reni given to him on stage, cause he had stomach acid.

After we had a quick chat with Lee Jones who works for a locally based radio station.

And then we walked back to our "area" in the bowels of the castle.

We had been given a few bottles of wine which Billy poured into water bottles to take with him to watch the Stereophonics. Apparently he was seen stumbling up Stow Hill in Newport later that night off his head singing Irish songs and walking into things.
A great day out at Cardiff castle.

1st Oct 2009, Sunday Sport's 23rd Birthday Party

WE had been invited to the Sunday Sport's 23rd Birthday Party. Only Maggot and Eggsy turned up. Adam and Grayham were going to go but Adam was on holiday and Grayham was scarred about having his pictures taken with topless models after what happened last time.....

They hadn't been there long when Maggot found some girls to talk to.

But Eggsy found more girls to talk to.

It was a highly erotic night.

So the boys stepped out to get a burger. Its a good idea to get some nourishment to keep your strength up in these situations. You never know whats going to happen.

Then it was back into the throws of the party and time to get properly smashed.

As the night grew on people got more drunk and had more and more fun.

This is maggot and Verena, she lovely and is massive on the scene.

At the end of the night the boys nearly ended up on the bus back to Manchester.

I think they had a good time.

Birmingham Uni freshers ball

We were doing a student ball in Birmingham in a club called Air. When we got there they had put on an amazing spread of lukewarm Asian snacks.
It was like a high class funeral and a runny bottom was a guarantee, but it didn't stop our enjoyment.

Mysti was like a Welsh Joe Cocker, he was having the time of his life.

Me, Eggsy and Maggot thought better of the snack party food and walked into the centre of Birmingham.

And went to popular up market fast food chain Nandos.

Maggot was loving those free refills.


So we went back eventually and it was time to get ready for the show. We were only doing 30 minutes and it was going to be slamming.

This is the crowd.

It was a quick hit but it didn't mean we didn't sweat hard.

We dried off and got on the booze, we thought we should try out some of the local drinks....
So we tried the After Shock.

The red one was good so we thought we better try the blue one which was ok.

By the time we had moved on to the silver one, Grayham was serving behind the bar.

Although he couldn't work out how to work the till.

Zipper Zane Low was playing after us, it was good to see him and catch up.

Then it was time to head off to the bus, we said hello to some of the people on the way.

Maggot met a lady in red.

And we lost Eggsy in the crowd somewhere as we fought our way through. All the students were really nice and some of them weren't as out of it on drugs and booze as I thought they would be.

Then we got in the bus and headed down the M5. On the way we stopped off for a late "Newport Sunday lunch".
Proper ruff.

Hot grease in a box at 2 in the morning!

NEWPORT SPEEDWAY, Sunday 13th September 2009

Sunday in Newport at 11:30 AM. There is only one place open to get any food and it's good old J D Wetherspoon. Needles to say the place was full of people drinking pints of beer.
They still do "sausage beans and chips", Maggots favourite for £2.99, a real bargain.

Then we headed down to Newport Speedway to do some filming with the BBC for "Sport Wales: The TV programme", hosted by king of the Barbour jacket, Jason Mohammad.

Speedway is a race between 4 riders around a track 4 times to see who is fastest. They don't have any breaks. I got to have a go on one of the posh BMXs that they use, only they wouldn't let me turn it on. The bikes are like half mountain bike and half lawn mower engine, and they are well quick.

We had a walk around the track.

I "interviewed" this dude. He is Nick Mallett who is the co-promoter with his dad. They make Speedway happen in Newport.

We watched the races and then we went out to talk to some of the people who turn up week in week out to watch Speedway.

It was a great day out, you should check it out.
I wouldn't take a date there and it's no cure for a hang over, but it's loud and dirty and that makes it fun.
