My first snog at university. My first snog ever was with someone called Lisa Girdler when I was 10. Tongues and all. Gross, I thought at the time.

So, my OH has decided that now is the time she'd rather not hear Thom Yorke and the Radiohead boys wailing their guts out at Downsview Park, Toronto on the 16th June. Apparently "she's never been a fan" and "was just being nice" but since I have some mates to go with too "she doesn't need to feel sorry for me anymore". Nice.

If anyone would like this single ticket it's going for $70.00 (face value $81.00). PM me.

Londonmike, apologies for calling your wife insane. I was in shock that someone would turn down a Radiohead ticket.

I'm sort of with LM's wife. Who wants to see a bunch of self-absorbed middle-class and middle-aged wankers moaning about everything under the naffing sun? And it wouldn't hurt them to play Creep, that's what the audience wants to hear ffs.

No worries, she is insane - for much more than turning down this ticket (but gorgeous, lovely etc too).

Actually I think the reason I like them is probably more to do with the fact that it takes me back to the halcyon carefree days of uni. I've also been listening to a lot of James recently.
