1) High points of 2005
new zealand in january. glasto. getting together with my lovely girlfriend, who i've actually been interested in since i met her 4 years ago...

2) Low points of 2005
my health, always shakey but have had an unusually bad low. haven't been able to work for the last 5 months so am pretty buggered for money too, so between that and the health i feel like i've been missing out on stuff recently.

3) Film of the year ?
uhm, dunno.

4) Event of the year ?
glasto. awesome.

5) Word of the year ?
awesome.

6) Biggest disappointment of the year ?
being unable to go to the prodigy gig with all my mates because of my health - was really looking forward to it, especially to see them do out of space which i never got to see them play the first time around, and is one of my all time top tunes.
how little i get to see of the aforementioned lovely girlfriend because she lives in cambridge, she's really busy, and i'm really skint.
dance your cares away, worries for another day

Erm... music wise, take that regrouping for uk tour!! Yipppeeee...

3 more days for more good things to come and i'm wishing to get that loan to do my uk course and watch takethat in apr/may, and move to da smoke next dec??!! :)

Low low bits ... erm same as 2004.

1) Meeting my girlfriend Ellie and having a generally awesome time for 8 months and counting.

Making a load of good new friends from my other forum.

Moving into my flat with my mate of 17 years.

Getting a pay rise at work to enable me to do the above, buy plenty of CDs, see lots of gigs, and not worry about spending too much.

Seeing loads of great stand-up comedy, including Noel Fielding, Sean Cullen, Gary Le Strange.

Discovering the series 'Firefly'.

Discovering some new artists and getting into some older ones including Echaskech, Sigur Ros, Jose Gonzalez, and Tunng.

2) Nothing really, which I am very glad for.

3) Definitely 'Sideways' - the funniest, cleverest most moving film I'd seen at the cinema for a good while. 'Batman Begins' deserves special mention for being the best action film in a long time, and also the best DVD release I've bought recently. 'Serenity' was also brilliant, and showed George Lucas what real science fiction should be like.

4) My first Big Chill was an excellent one. I saw some brilliant bands, soaked up the amazing atmosphere, and did some naughty stuff in a sheep field.

I should also mention 'The Egg' at Cargo last month - a fun-filled and brilliant gig.

5) Not sure about my favourite word. Maybe 'tits'.

6) Revenge of the Shit. I mean Sith. No actually, I really mean Shit.

Hhmmm, it was a pretty good year, there are so many. Getting married, some great parties with friends, several good concerts & the return of Loopz radio.

2) Low points of 2005
Just about everything work related.

3) Film of the year ?
Was there one... I don't know I didn't make it to the theater much last year.

4) Event of the year ?
Had to be my wedding & honeymoon. Both were fan'friggin'tastic good times. oh yeah & the bachelor party, that was a good one too.

5) Word of the year ?
Same as last year... CRAP! It just rolls so nicely off the tongue.

6) Biggest disappointment of the year ?
Having not moved on to another job is probably the most disappointing thing about last year.
