Firstly, apologies for the lack of blog entries in a month. Truth is I ran out of ideas for entries until I started a new relationship with a girl I worked beside, you’ll notice I am using past tense, well we had been dating up until last night.
Things were going well, we had gone out on a date, and eventually a lot of nights out socialising ended up in us becoming more than friends. But things became stale and I knew there was something just not right, call it a hunch. She was holding hands less, cuddling less and I knew that this was inevitable. Despite her reassurances that “everything was ok” last night she dumped me claiming that she just couldn’t face doing it because she knew it hurt me.
The worst part of all this is that we still have to work together and I just don’t know that I could face up to this anymore, she meant the world to me and just don’t know if i can speak to her again, not because i ahte her, but because everytime I see her, ill be reminded of what we had and what we lost.
Love is lifes greatest enemy, no sooner do you find someone but she is taken away from you again, everyone just wants to feel love, companionship, that loving and knowing gaze of contentment between two people that care for each other in a special way.
As for Sarah and I, only time could heal broken wounds, I don’t think I have cared as much for someone as much as this since the girlfriend I had at high school which was revisited many years later until she cheated.
Right now, i just feel like i want to fall into a deep sleep never to wake again , perhaps I still haven’t learned my lesson from one of my previous blog entries

Dear God,
I know I’m not a frequent visitor to your house every week, but since I have nothing to write right now, I thought I would drop you a line, I’m not quite sure whether you even have the internet up there in heaven, I mean your the BIG MAN in charge of the wide world so why does the man who is in charge of the wide world, not also have the world wide web?. And you are bound to have plenty of electricity I mean you have thunderbolts up there, or are you feeling the crunch like the rest of us?.
My apologies, I seem to be asking a lot of questions and I know how busy you must be, what with running the world, answering prayers and what not. Maybe you should hire a secretary … maybe not.
But in all seriousness you must get mighty peeved when someone uses your name in vain i.e GOD ALL MIGHTY, FOR GOD SAKE, AW GOD.
Anyhow, your a busy man, places to go, people to smite and all that, so I’ll close by saying your doing a sterling job, maybe calm the beans with the terrorists, we all need crackpots but lets limit them to one every solar system, maybe try to do something about poverty and famine if you can like, i know we have Sir Bob Geldof but he is but one man and quite frankly I think he is trying to look like you more and more every day. Finally could you do us all a favour and get rid of that infernal Scottie McClue, his act is as tired and woren as Paddington Bear, I don’t want you to do away with him, just you know make him disappear from the airwaves.
Well that’s me, I have to go now, thanks for the chat and well if you are ever in the neighbourhood, look me up.
All the best, your faithful servant (kinda)
Brett
Ah, Neil, Neil, Neil, what can I say about him, well I guess first off he is a colleague of mine at work, is openly bi-sexual and everyone has a bit of a “fun” poke at that, of course Neil is a good sport and takes it on the chin (lord this blog is going down the pan rapidly, two near innuendos and it’s only the third line lol) anyway, Neil is a great laugh and you can rely on him to cheer you up, i’d also call him a friend and that is something I am seriously lacking right now at work as I just do not feel like I have connected to anyone else in there, i feel its a case of them versus me because I am the new guy but of course you aren’t there to make friends which yes I know this but it is nice if you can goto work and have some select people you could call “friends” for example at the centre (where I worked before) I could probably count on both hands people I could call a friend (mind you the rotters never came to my leaving do so not so sure now about that one).
So, anyhoo back to Neil, we were having a bit of a laugh and well since it is work, he got what he was needing from the cupboard and then returned to where he was working, i did the same but as I was leaving i thought i saw Neil heading towards the freezers, so I foolishly wolf whistled at him just as a joke AS A JOKE!
TO MY HORROR IT WAS ONE OF THE OTHER BLOKES THAT LOOKS A BIT LIKE HIM FROM BEHIND (insert red faced smiley here) luckily the guy took it in good humour and shouted back thank you lmao. (what a sport)
WHIT A PLACE, I THINK MY MIND AND SEXUALITY HAS BEEN CORRUPTED ALREADY, mind you it’s only taken 2 months.
As visitors to my official website you are getting the priviledge to get an exclusive first look at the new fownage.com/.co.uk services as they are being built and tested.
So first up is the new look Fownage Internet, the site is in the process of being built and users of BMOS may recognise the background hmmmm.
Last night whilst at the karaoke, I stepped out from the fun to reminisce about the town I called home for a year and a half, and as we fast approach the first year anniversary of my departure from Bathgate, I could’nt help get a little down and so picked myself up by taking a little breather and a stroll round by where I used to live.
As I walked down past the old shop where I used to pick up a few odds and ends my mind drifted back to how I hobbled along in my crutches after I had my accident and how I struggled to carry my shopping yet in the same token learned to manage and adapt to the situation and the circumstances.
Eventually arriving at my house sorry old house, it was strange to see how it looked exactly the same but in some strange way completely different. No longer were my baskets hanging with flowers full of buds, no longer were my trainers sitting outside the door because they stunk to high heaven, gone was the neighbours friendly little kitten that faithfully sat outside my doorstep to await and greet me with its somehow pathetic but heartwarming “meow”. Gone are the weeds that grew like a forrest in the front garden simply because I was too lazy to de-weed them.
So much has changed in my life in the last year, yet it feels like life has stood still at my old humble abode. I may have left my “wee” flat in the heart of Bathgate, but in the heart of Bathgate left in my “wee” flat, is where I have left my heart. I miss it dearly but the change was for the better and like changes you learn to adapt and I have adapted and settled in back home. HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS no matter where you live.
My tastes in music have changed so much in just the short space of time around 5 years, from originally having a very limited and very lacking taste in music to now appreciating anything from folk to indie and pop to soft rock.
I of course attribute this to my friends at the karaoke for encouraging me to try anything I fancy trying and to heck with anyone else that finds my attempts funny. This is of course the way it should be, karaokes are all about fun and the enjoyment factor. NO not X factor ENJOYMENT FACTOR.
Ross Lee (CBBC) now presents a brand new Nickelodeon (UK) Saturday morning tv show from a dark eerie castle along side his plethora of sidekicks including an armpit, a head in a jar, a scary dentist and a freaky doctor.
This show is full of hilarious innuendo that a kid would just not get like the game show part of it called “Kick To The Ghoulies” lmao come on am I the only one that finds that funny.
Having watched the first hour of the first show on Saturday, I have to say this show is really quite entertaining. Catch Ross Lee’s Ghoulies every Saturday morning 10am till midday on Nick UK.
Watch The Show Again …

Hey, if you love this blog and want to be kept upto date the minute I post a new entry, then why not hit the rss icon (top right corner), it’s the quarter target looking icon thingy. Then you will get all my blogness in a handy concentrate, mmmm vitaminy ;-).

Question? ….
What would you do if you worked beside someone that was basically paid more than you to do practically the same job,but was a complete lazy b****** and your superiors could’nt do anything because the lazy b****** is not employed by your firm but in fact the management of the firm your firm is contracted too.
Yes I thought your first word would be frustrated, I feel like I am chasing him and that more or less means I am doing double the work as he is not doing the job properly, and it is hard enough with supervisors on your tail complaining when something hasn’t been done, your colleagues are meant to support you and rely on each other so that when one is at one end, the other can be getting on with something else.
He is by far the laziest person I have ever had the misfortune of knowing.

There you will find the very first script I wrote which has since been sent to Glasgow based production company The Comedy Unit, famous for Rab C Nesbitt, Still Game and Chewing The Fat to name but a few popuar Scottish comedies.
also added is My Girl which is self explanatory really and is about my lovely girlfriend.

“This is heartbreaking!
Travis Barker was involved in a fatal private plane crash in Columbia, South Carolina early on Saturday morning, killing four and injuring two.
The former Blink 182 drummer is said to be one of the two injured.
Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Kathleen Bergen says the plane carrying six people was departing shortly before midnight Friday when air traffic controllers reporting seeing sparks.
She says the plane went off the runway and crashed on a nearby road.
Bergen says the Lear 60 was headed to Van Nuys, Calif.
She didn’t have the names of those killed and didn’t know the conditions of the two people injured.
Update: Nooooo!!!!!!!!
We are hearing that D.J. A.M. was also on the plane at the time of the crash.
Please pray to God that he is okay!!!!
Update #2: Travis is in “critical” condition.
He’s been transfered to the Agusta, Georgia Burn Center.”
Update #3: Travis Barker has burns from the waist down while DJ AM has burns to his face, both re still critical at this time.
As a massive Blink182 fan, I sincerely hope Travis is going to pull through this, not for Blink’s sake, not for any new band or project he is working on’s sake but for his families sake.
Travis has children and a wife who both need their husband and father respectively.
BEST WISHES TRAVIS, I HOPE YOU PULL THROUGH
Hey everyone, no I’m not dead honest guv lol. Apologies for the lack of bloginess, busy,busy,busy …
This blog entry wont disappoint, I can assure you, so … picture the scene right, at work and all of a sudden I need to use the little janitors room, now I know what you’re thinking, “Why the heck is Brettzilla Mood Killer telling us about his trip to the toilet” well, all is about to be clear …
Now I understand why small businesses would use motion sensor lights but for a large company like Asda I see no point and especially in a staff toilet not customer.
So I’m sitting there doing my thing and I put my hand on the rail which directly above is a motion sensor super hand dryer which apart from anything else scared the living bejeezus outta me when it blasted on. So I tried to stay still to stop it from coming on and in the process was plunged into darkness.
So there I am shouting “OI put the bl**dy light on” not realizing at this point it was on a motion sensor thingy. Lets just say I had a red face that day.
