in other news, poker game is tonite. with a little luck i'll come out on top again - if you remember, i won £60 at the last game. i don't really mind not winnign, it's so much fun sitting there getting piss drunk and playing poker. but it's always nice to have a win too! plus, it's kings' last game before he jets off to the US of A. he'll be travelling around for a few months before dropping back into london for two weeks prep for the trip back home (translation: he'll be slumming it at the gen, doing absolutely nothing for two weeks apart from drinking too much and sleeping for 15 hours a day) hehe.

i should mention some gen news (yeah i know i said i wasn't going to, whatever...) we've lost two welcome hosts...jess and raymond have up and left us for the sunny shores of greece. yep, more and more gen staffers are moving their lives to greece for the summer...am i missing out? hmm the thought of moving to greece is appealing, but i think the trip home will be way more fun (if i can afford it...last pricing set the trip from here to perth (over about 3 months) at something like £3200! that's a huge chunk of cashola!)

ok, enough of me. say something funny to your dog (hi pogo and remy and my kitty cleo!)

mike (did you know: michael knight (david hasselhoff's character in knight rider) was named michael LONG in the pilot episode...i knew there was a hass-mike connection somewhere...
