That crane climbing guy from Southampton is on C4 at current, they're doing a documentary on him.

It's the same guy from the video I posted.

 

Mhmm. When most people have money problems, going out is the first thing they stop.

 

Yeah something very similar has happened with me recently with a girl at work. Girls are weird.

 

Well the top of La Liga is very interesting tonight...

Barcelona 51
Atletico Madrid 51
Real Madrid 50

All 3 have played 20 games.

 

Don't think Martino will last long.

 

Liebherr crane in LA.
But, have to say, that boy be nuts!

 

Blimey, my stepbrother-in-law has just signed up for Virgin Galactic.....!

 

You'd think that but some people just aren't like that. My sister had a baby at the start of June last year. Her husband has been dealing with all their financial stuff recently and told her a month or two ago she has to go back to work very soon or they won't be able to pay the mortgage... and yet they go out for meals all the time, make long trips to see friends/family almost every weekend, he's been on a couple of expensive stag nights/weekends and every time they come over to mine (or my girlfriend and I go over to theirs) they suggest getting takeaway. Doesn't make any sense to me.

 

These are truths. Though, however odd, she is still rather lovely and I don't particularly want to lose her as a friend myself. I went over there to have a man talk with him, as he was obviously not happy, and we've cleared a few things up. Still need to find time to talk to her though. Episode 2 should be eventful!

 

Sounds like a she has either feel out of love or a hurting in some way. Has she been going out alot more then she usually does?

 

Well apparently she's just been reacquainted with some people she knew at school and has been going out with them a few times recently. She often goes out for a drink after work, but doesn't really have many friends. Most of the socialising she does outside of work is with her boyfriend and me.

Apparently one of her complaints is that she's a student but doesn't feel like she's getting the student lifestyle. I'm not entirely sure what she means by that yet, so I need to clear that one up with her. Students don't get tons of takeaways, buy loads of furniture and book a holiday to ****ing California.

 

Wahey, good for him. The adventure of a lifetime. According to the latest independent stats, there have been 536 people who have been into space, in a world of 7.2 billion people currently living. That's an exclusive club. Not bad, even if they add a few hundred before he gets to fly.

 

Sounds more like a breakdown then just not liking her bf anymore. Unless she is just becoming a bitch?

 

Yup, the boy done good. Was named Entrepreneur of the year last year, so life's kinda going well for him right now.

 

She's the same old person around me which is really confusing because she sounds like a different person in the stories I've just been told. I'm going to talk to her this week and she's probably going to cry and I'm probably going to feel really uncomfortable.

 

Get a answer tho, don't let her crying put you off.

 

"Don't cry... You look so ugly when you cry"

 

Said something like that to my ex once made her laugh tho.

 

She's pretty self-conscious (for no good reason whatsoever). I won't be saying anything like that.

 

I'm sure it'll be okay though. Just be nice and she might open up.
