Idioteque

Haha, I though it was the best chance to see the northern lights? when would you suggest?

as close to the 1200 i can find, im going to get this after doing loads of research for a few weeks http://www.johnlewis.com/audio-technica-at-lp120-usb-turntable/p2025545?sku=234514390&kpid=234514390&s_kenid=76a47557-f0ba-4a98-b5b6-e8a005544245&s_kwcid=402x346692&tmad=c&tmcampid=73

Week in New York in April, Glastonbury in June, Week in Albufeira in September all booked. Hoping for a euro trip in the summer and really want to go to Iceland in December.

Anyone got any recommendation for a decent record player? and none of these shitty bookcase things

City break with the lads in January to be booked this weekend (dirt cheap flights that month to everywhere it seems after xmas) probably Hamburg or Amsterdam then back to London for a couple of days, Week in NYC in April, Glastonbury then Algarve for a week 1st september then I'm looking at fucking off to AUS/NZ/Asia for a year or so this time next year because I'm fed up of England

You might be interested in these kegler supers that you might get your hands on, I like them but don't wear white trainers much, I've got about 30-40 pairs of adidas all boxed, I'm a bit of a collector

I thought the friday night was one of the best value for money line ups i've seen in years, love all 4 bands for £25 , gutted I can't get over for it

I think I'm going to, a few mates are going, I keep thinking about it, probably sell out by the time I get round to buying a ticket

hahahahaha

I've been to quite a few gigs this year but I was too pissed to remember them, the worst being going to see Foals in Manchester, losing all my mates and my phone dying, missing the last bus home and sleeping on a park bench before getting the first train home and being caked in mud because I kept falling over in said park, moral of the story I'm going to take it easy in 2015. In terms of being impressed and I can remember it Royal Blood were really good so were Bombay Bicycle club when I was in Berlin. This thread just makes me sad at the lack of gigs I've got lined up, must correct this.

Just had our ryanair flights for Benidorm in March changed, only going for 3 nights and lose half a day because they decided to change they're route times ffs. Just bought myself a ps4 and 4 games and shit loads of ale for Christmas.

First time I've been on since getting back First day got to Berlin and had to many beers and fell asleep when we went back to the hotel in Berlin City Centre, went back out for a walkbut couldn't find anything open and it was a completely dead everywhere (it was a tuesday night, don't think we looked hard enough, Berlin is bloody massive) 2nd day we got up sharpish and went on a pub crawl whilst using the metro a fair bit, ended up going walking round the government buildings and then found a ramones museum which was brilliant, found an Irish bar then found out Bombay Bicycle Club were playing that night so went up there and paid on the door only to get in there and they were half way through the set. I ended up staying out on my own that night till about 3am as the rest shyed off back to the hotel knowing we had an early train to Hannover. Trying to find my hotel for 90 minutes just walking round the big spike TV tower was a bit of a struggle when pissed. Woke up half an hour after the train had left for Hannover (none of us had set alarms, I hadn't charged my phone) so had to pay another 60 euros each with the hangover from hell. Got to Hannover checked in hotel and got on the train to Wolfsburg. Wolfsburg there was fuck all there apart from the Volkswagen plant, the football stadium, a christmas market and about 4 irish bars/restaurants full of blues, but really nice people/police were on top form. Went the match where it was about -3 coldest I've ever been at the match, watched Everton win in Europe then back to Hannover after a couple of pints. Walked round for a bit but couldn't find anything in Hannover so went back to the hotel for a few pints then to bed. Knackered by the last few days we had a lie in on the last day and then got out for something to eat and a few pints but then we found this sort of indoor market with stalls round the outside then the middle was full of little bars with seating, quite surreal really but it was really brilliant and very cheap too, ended up going up to Hannover 96's ground via the river It was fucking freezing then back to the market for hours drinking wheat beer and eating currywurst. Then we went for a walk through the town centre by the shops and found the 'Jack the ripper London tavern' I was lured in because it had a Newcastle Brown Ale sign. It was the best bar we went in all week, sold newcastle brown on tap and had over 50 whiskeys/bourbons and it was very cheap aswell. It was like a cave you had to go downstairs to get in, ended up with a load of evertonians and rangers fans in there all night and nearly missed our flight the next morning. Was a brilliant trip and can't wait to go back Hannover just as much as Berlin.

Thank you!

Going to Berlin & Hannover next week for Wolfsburg away, got 2 days in Berlin and one in Hannover the day after the game, what shouldn't I miss please?
