Music to make love to your sister to and other things

Not just killing time

Two posts in the same day? What's that all about? Actually I'm killing time until I have to go to my night class. I'm doing a wine course, but more on that later. So until then may I recommend some stuff.....

Food. Stuff like chilli sauce from a fantastic company called Facing Heaven. They had a stall at Chillifest in Belfast a few weeks ago. Whilst everyone else I was with was off searching for the absolutely hottest ball busting sauces they could find I was intrigued by the different flavours available from these guys. Chilli is so macho it's not true. Some were sweet, some tangy, some hot, but all were great. I bought the Habanero Sauce as well as the Naga Morresh Sauce. If you like a great chilli sauce I recommend these people. The waiter approves...

Music. I like a very wide range of music, from hipity hop to Folk I'm into it all. Bluegrass has been growing on me over the last years and The Earl Brothers in particular. If you click the link to The Earl Brothers MySpace select the track called Hard Times.... It's grass chewingly brilliant. Music to make love to your sister to. Get it listened to.

Notepads. I have a thing for nice writing pads. I use Semikolon books, well I did until I discovered RHODIA notepads. There is just something about them. They are just really nice pads to write on. It's just a pity all I do is scribble lists of people I want to kick in the balls and what my favourite colours are and other humdrum nonsense. Looking for a pad? Get a Rhodia pad, God bless the French.....

Hoodies. The good people at Threadless are having a hoody sale which finishes at 12am CST. If you need a fashionable hoody for the teenager in you or your life then Threadless is the place to go. DISCLAIMER, I get a small reward for any sales referred through this link. So get them bought.......hehehehehe. But I have to say as the owner of some Threadless Shirts I can recommend them for quality and design. Lovely stuff, get that filthy rag off and get one of these on...And if you like the shirts then you should decorate your walls
with their designs too. Check these decals from BLIK. I love these....

Blog. So many good blogs recently. But this one stuck in my mind. I was sent the link to it today from Toast. The Airport Diaries is written by a now former Manchester Airport worker. It's a great read. Visit and cheer him up....

All get the much coveted WellDoneFillet Seal of Approval...

I genuinely want to get the sauce though (and not 'geet' as my previous post)...
