Jethro Sheeran - Cousin of Ed Sheeran
Hello everyone, as you will all remember in my previous post I talked about me being on CJ's show and chatting with Alabama Capital. Well next month (January) CJ is getting Jethro Sheeran on the show who is the cousin of British singer-song writer Ed Sheeran, well known for his song "The A-Team". Now, I always get to chat with CJ's guests, so hopefully I will be able to chat with Jethro and possibly Ed himself if he turns up. I will keep you up to date with that as it gets nearer.

My Radio Appearance
Hello everyone,
Last night I made an appearance on an Internet radio station 1Radio.org where my friend Ceejay (Chris McNally) is a DJ. I was on his show last night and had the pleasure of talking to Nathan and Caleb who are also known as Alabama Capital. It was a great show and an awesome night. I enjoyed chatting with them as they are great guys and have awesome music. If you missed the show live you can download it directly from here. We also had a famous record producer listening in called Shawn Campbell, who has worked with Usher, Rihanna and Jay-Z.

How to have bad table manners
As most of you know, Thursday was my birthday and on the Friday I was having a meal at TGI Friday's. That's when a thought occurred, how does one have bad table manners? I got my iPhone out and searched for the answer but nothing, so I thought I'd make this blog post on the subject. You could use this for example if you are going to be forced to dine with someone you do not like, follow these simple steps and you'll never have to dine with those person(s) again.
1) Always chew food with your mouth open
This one is quite easy, many people actually do this without realising that they are doing it.
2) Snack and Crunch
When eating you're eating make sure you snack and crunch on your food at a loud volume. Make sure that it can be heard around the entire table and also in the surrounding environment.
3) Eat fast
Always make sure you eat fast, do not eat slow. Try to make sure you make as much mess as possible, spilling on the floor, table and your shirt. Forget the use of napkins - wipe your hands on your shirt, trousers or on the table cloth.
4) ALWAYS speak with your mouth full
This is extremely important. Speaking with food in your mouth makes conversation difficult to hear, as well as that a mouth full of food is unpleasant for the other diners. If you want to ask your dining companions a question, do not wait for them to finish chewing - just ask away.
5) Reaching
Imagine an invisible boundary on the table which separates your personal space with the other diners'. Feel more than welcome to invade this space. For example if there is a bottle of ketchup next to another diner, don't ask them to pass the ketchup or even ask if you are okay to use it, just reach out and grab the object.
6) Stuff your mouth full of food
Always bite off more than you can chew, stuff your cheeks full of food and take exceedingly large bites. Also form a ball in one cheek and take a sip of your drink while chewing.
7) 1/2 Bites
If you have placed an area of your meal on your fork, don't immediately eat the whole thing - Take 1/2 a bite of that food.
8) Fidgeting
Fidget with your tie, jewellery, adjust flatware, play with your (unused) napkin or hair, anything that makes your dining companions think that they are boring you.
9) Completing your meal
Once you have completed your meal, push the plate away in a small, but aggressive manner and make a table announcement that you have finished eating - This will make the other diners feel pressured to finish their food faster.
10) Slouch
Slouch on your chair, this will show that you are not alert or engaged in the surrounding environment.
11) Picking your teeth
No bad table manners would be complete without using a toothpick in full view of the other diners. When you are cleaning your teeth with your tongue make sure it is done at a high volume. This is an unattractive habit.

Sunburn :(
Yesterday we had some hot weather. Temperatures reached to a high 26.5°C (79°F). I was sat outside most of the day in it, in a t-shirt and a pair of trousers luckily. I only burnt my face and my arms but it still isn't good. I didn't use any sun-screen because I live in England and that is not usually something we think about here. I was out in the sun for about 4 hours yesterday. Well I don't mind that much, I am just glad we had some nice hot weather. Today has been warm also, however today it was warmer by .2°C.
Yesterday top temperature in Billingham was 26.5°C (79°F)
Today top temperature in Billingham was 26.7°C (80°F)
That is not much difference however I think it was more humid yesterday and it was sunny yesterday too, not a cloud in the sky. Today it was quite overcast but still quite warm. Also it doesn't compare to weather we have had in the past where temperatures have reached 31°C (87°F). Although it's not often that this happens in the north of England (it is more common in the south), it still does happen. Oh well, I am heading on holiday to Greece in August, I am certain it will be even hotter there.

Update - Gig/College/Weather
Hi everyone,
sorry for not updating but I keep forgetting. Either that or I can't be bothered. Just thought I'd let you all know I have now finished college and successfully completed my first year. I will be returning in September to start a media course and I am really looking forward to it. Also on Saturday 11th June 2011 I met up with Ceejay again, and also Craig, Jayde, Darryl, Mark, David Young so it was a good night. Photos are attached below. Recently I have put up my photo gallery as it was accidentally deleted by CEEJAY when we upgraded the site to Joomla, but it is back up now and hopefully I will upload some of my college work to that when I start my new course. Weather has been raining a lot but not really cold, it's suppose to be sunny and hot on Monday with temperatures reaching 30c (86f) in Southern England and 26c (78f) in Northern England. So I will look forward to that. Anyway here's the photos. The first one is of Ceejay (left) and me (right) and the second is Craig (left), Jayde (middle) and me (right).
