Andrew and work, like horse and carriage

My, oh my. So many days since my last blog.

I blame this on two factors:

• T in the Park - Despite the nine and a half hours I spent in traffic getting there (when it should have taken one and a half hours), I had a superfun time. When not on the radios dealing with fracture ankle, after fractured ankle and fractured FUCKING ankle; I speny my weekend in the sun taking in some pretty awesome bands. Oh, and there was some guy running about the site on the Sunday night with a knife... nice.
  
• Work - I have started my first ever permenant job: there is no light at the end of the tunnel in the form of the end of a temporary contract. I have to wear 'business clothes', I have a photo id badge and my job involves cheques and money. This is a recipe for disaster.

Presumably my next post will be when I am fired/arrested for some major ENRON style fraud, that I have inadvertantly caused.

Three in the Park

This year's T in the Park marks my third in attendance with St Andrew's Ambulance, and I am so very happy that I will not be camping this year. I shall be staying in a bed and breakfast... this means:

• NO tents
• LOTS of showers
• cooked breakfast, as opposed to cereal bars... don't get me wrong, I do love a good cereal bar, but I have my limits.

Sadly we won't be working the 15 hour shifts this year (which were surprisingly good fun), instead we shall only be working 10 hours (boo!).

I will also be mainly doing radio communications this weekend, so my contact with unconciously drunk people will be minimal sadly. Although I do plan to try and wander into the VIP backstage area by 'accident'.

Plane silly

Yesterday, I watched Snakes on a Plane (FYI pretty awesome) as well as the 'terrorist attack' at Glasgow Airport on tv. All in all, not making for a good day for flying.

Yet now all I want to do with my summer is somehow create a situation in which I can use the phrase 'I've had it with these motherfucking snakes on this motherfucking plane'.

Btw, if you haven't seen Snakes on a Plane, it's pretty much like this: Goats on a Boat.
