Another sell out.

I really love to be alone without all the
Ache and pain, and the april showers ..
But it ain't long before I long for you,
like a ray of hope coming through the blue ..

I've just got another shitload of stuff for Germany, the excitingly titled 'Summer information pack', which is actually a very long and scary email with more attachments than you can shake a stick at. This will inevitably mean more forms to fill in, more emails to send and more German to remember. This next year had better be the best year of my life.

I discovered the delights of Halifax last night, where I met an array of increasingly bizarre people, including ones wearing so much fake tan that even the word orange wasn't in sight; more of an industrial pink-grey. Kind of like spam wearing fake tan.

Todays 'lowest sell-out' award however goes to Gok Wan, who has managed to somehow get his big gay face plastered onto the front of those Snack-a-Jack things (I've only just realised upon typing this that I don't actually know what they are. Ricecakes?). In any case, his silly mug blows kisses from the front of the pack and urges whoevers stuffing their face to "Bag some She-time", whatever the fuck that means.

Why is Gok Wan choosing our snacks for us now? This combined with some of his curious fashion suggestions? I'd be happier having David Blunkett draw up my Summer look for me and have Stevie Wonder in charge of my snacks.

But, theres a bonus for fans! For the price of a packet of Snack-a-Jacks, you could win £500 and a posh makeover! Are you feeling lucky, punk?
