Jet Setting
Oh so; not much happening this week so far. But seeing as our new stat counter has told me 40 different people have visited this blog over the past three days i thought there best be something new for our wonderful readers well to read!
Not much has happened. Had some legendary lessons thoguh, such as History as well as the oh so good bsuiness stuides. In which i was told to go and stay round Matt's house for the weekend. I'm not kidding our teacher really did tell me to stay at Matt's. Yes i know, very odd, but still...
Hmm.. what else has happened.. not mcuh im afraid well if anything has happened to you let us know via email or comment and we will post it. I heard in another comment someone got radioactivised by gamma radiation. I really want to find out who this perosn is, cos im really intrested in it. And also so i can warn you all not to go withing 5 miles of him/her.
And before I jet set off. Must say hello to Jess, hello, hasnt been a better Jess since well Jess the black and white cat! She's great (no, sadly i was not paid to say that)so hi, and i guess bye now too. If anyone else wants a hello on 'the blog' let us know and it will be done! (We are also now offering, signed, official merchandise for all your needs so ask us about that too :D)
Until next time.
Goodnight
Cycling (Cant think of anything better)
Hello once again.
Some more random photos for you all to laugh at will follow but for now let me explain the story behind them.
Had a little cycle with some friends from school (Loz, Dennis Standing (aka Head Boy), and Funz); was good fun; in fact hope to do it again some time so if anyone is intrested in coming with drop us a line. Found a nice little forest with random abandoned buildings.
So yes, that was good fun, went from Shoreham over to Steyning, up onto Downs then along to Cisbury Ring (sorry about the spelling of that) then down that hill and then back along to Shoreham. Very muddy indeed, had to stop and carry bikes a fair distance too.. and just when we thoght we were out of it we have to thank Loz for, well, getting us back in it! Thanks man.
So yes, a very enjoyable day.
Before we go, must say hello to Steph Hollway, so Hi Steph.
Cya all later. Bye.
BEWARE OF AZZARO!
Hiya you fantastic folks!
Just a flying visit from me as I had to jot down what happenend in my RE class today. Some guy, who willl remain nameless, made a rather amusing poster with pictures of our DH Mr Azzaro on it and the words 'BEWARE OF AZZARO!' This was promptly printed 40 times to different printers around the school! It was plastered around the class he was teaching in too (ours!) Luckily he took it with the great humour we've come to expect and love from our teachers (apart from Mr 'stone face' Straw!)
Of course the great thing is he can't find out i've written this as the school has blocked our blog!
[for info on getting past the school blocking system please see several posts below]
English - Spelling aint Important
Just found this on the interweb (aww... love that place) well i thought i would share (bare with it, it picks up):
The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby
English will be the official language of the European Union rather
than German,which was the other possibility.
As part of the negotiations, Her Majesty's Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5-year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English".
In the first year, "s" will replace the soft
"c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter.
There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the
troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like
fotograf 20% shorter.
In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible. Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling.Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent "e" in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.
By the 4th yer peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th"
with "z" and "w" with "v".During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou" and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil hav a reil sensibl riten styl.
Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu
understand ech oza.
Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru.
If zis mad you smil pleas pas on to oza pepl.
Zen ve vil rul ze world!!
Zis is kol!
Funz
Yes, thats right. Funz is saying "Woooo Fluffy Hancuffs".
St Andy Staff kick ass?!!
Well hello all you lovely people who have come to gaze in at the tree of knowledge and maybe, just possibly, take a bite from one of it's apples.
Yeah, i've heard this story; it's in the bible and it doesnt turn out too good.A couple of weeks of relative boredom for Mark and I ended abruptly today when serveral things happened that left us in stitches! - No it wasn't a fight just incredibly funny stuff!
For him at least...Firstly a rather amazing science lesson took place where a trend was started (I shall not enlighten you as to who) which involved making signs and holding them up. I put up one saying 'love you Funz' which was returned by one to me from Dennis stating 'Matt I still love you!' All of this was, however topped by Ed's rather fantastic 'Call Dennis 0*******90 for a good time' - Oh classic!
The season of running around calling each other 'gay' has once again started. And also has the season for chavs. Waiting in the hall sitting behind a table calling out 'chav' and seeing how many people would turn around and start having a go at us (only to chavs of course). Score as it stand is 1 to me and 1 to matt. The next amusing thing to occur was a football match between St Andrews Staff and Durrington High Staff. Tensions were high and the Standy staff looked beat as they strolled onto the pitch. Luckily Mark, myself and serveral other fantastic peers were on the sidelines yelling out classic remarks such as 'COME ON PESSIA' and 'WE DONT BOO AT ST ANDREWS BUT YOU SUCK!' Some pictures are sure to follow!
And Mr 15 from Durrington (yes you know who you are), you swore at us and we want revenge! That just wasnt very nice... :(Anywho I shall now banish you form exploring my
(our) life
(s) and send you back out of cyberspace! Until the next time- goodbye
Yes goodbye, and for all you worryign about Standy Prom from what i've found it is being changed. So from all of us here, good bye and good night.
End socre was apparently 9-5 to St Andrews. Yeah!
*Edit: Photo*
Mark? Matt? Dead?
Ok, ok, ok, you can all stop rejoiceing now. I'm still alive, and kicking (sadly, for some)
But a near death experiance perhaps? Well me and my fellow counter part Matt were in science today (as you do) when a cloud of nitrogen (could be hyrdrogen) gas came rolling and swirling towards us. We bo9th ducked for cover by behold it was to late. Then the slow, but painful experiances and conseques of such gas came into affect. I won't go into any specific details; but i can assue you that it was not all that good.
One lesson has been learnt out of this. Science is dangerous; and like most other things should have more health and safety measures in place. But for now all i can recommened is that you stand at least 10 metres away from science at all times.
Below is an artists impression of what the scene looked like...
Thats 'Mini'
Our friend Ben has just purchased a £500 mini along with him £400 guitar.
Ok so its slowly falling apart, rusting and doesn't quite yet start. And also isn't in the greatest colour of lime green. But it is a mini; although i have challenged it to a race on my motorbike
(that's a bit ambitious- try my bike e.d) so that should be intresting. (once it's actually woerking, if ever, that is) It is a shown in the pics
(note ben in the pics e.d)Well he's got a few years to get it working; then maybe ill be too big to fit in the back. Before i die due to lack of seat belts (but we shall see); althroguh it can't be as bad as my bike saftey wise. Actually can i take that back?
(the mini is currently safer- it's going nowhere for now! e.d)Anyways drive past him house and maybe, just maybe you shall see it (it it hasn't had a nice coating of rust by then).
On another note, we (as in the bloggers here, matt and mark) went to see Jarhead today at what they call a cinema. It was ok, resonable, medioka, not bad, but then on the other hand not great either. I mean if you want to see it, go ahead its a pretty good film, some parts are funny and the story line isn't too bad. But i couldn't recommened it, story line wasnt all that great, too much swearing and bluntness. So overall i'd give it 6/10. And thats my film criticness over for today.
(I agree, an accurate portrail of the Iraq war but a strange creation e.d)Cya all later.
Bye.
Update
Just so everyone knows that were still here.
And I passed my CBT. Woot!
I think Matt’s going to bring you something about nuns soon. Fire breathing nuns that is. Nunzilla (wife and councillor to Godzilla)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARK!
Just thought, as it's mark's birthday, he deserved a post. I created a little collage of Mark (see below.) So then here goes HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Theres a time to Look
Hello again people, as you can see we have got back into the habbit of blogging now and it will soon become a daily routine which will slowly take over our lives. A lot like eating but only less fattening.
Anyway i know how much you guys and girls out there love reading our blog (sarcasim intended but you never know) and i reliase that some of those poor people at St Andrews know that our blog has been blocked (Davisions and other skools may have the same problem) so here we go, how to access our blog from you school.
Basically just go to http://www.vtunnel.com/nph-info.pl/010110A/687474702s7777772r6q61726o6q6174742r626p6s6773706s742r636s6q2s
In theory that should work fine. If not go to www.vtunnel.com and insert markmatt.blogspot.com into the box then click browse and there you go you can keep me and matt with you where ever you go and can always catch uip on our all so enjoyable life. (Or lives, but i hate to think we both have a life, so one will do)
Train Guard Goes Off The Rails?
Well here we go again in the bizarre workings of our lives and yet again realise that the various cogs and gears need oiling. Today we bore witness to which words fail me- I will, however, try my best to phase what I can only call 'The Rage of the Train Guard!'
It all began as we standing at Worthing Station waiting for our daily train to take us back to Shoreham and, as ever, it was delayed. This is not strange but then it got weirder. An announcement then rang out over the station which explained the delays 'I'm sorry for the delay to your journeys but some idiot, or idiots, have place some yellow pages on the station at Goring. This is very stupid and is stopping all of the trains.' Despite the obvious seriousness of the situation I could hardly prevent myself and I burst into laugher. What an absurd thing to happen? The next thing that occurred to my usually perplexed brain was that it couldn't possibly take long to clear- surely just move the offending yellow pages and bingo! Trains run again!
My rather naive diagnosis, however, proved to be a falsehood as it took a further 15 minutes to clear to line. During this time however the 30-odd St Andrews students began to get a little, well, restless. This lead to another bizarre call from 'the angry train guard' now yelling irately saying 'Will the insane kids please stop messing around!' which provoke only further laugher. At this he yelled down the microphone 'WILL YOU STOP PLAYING WITH THAT LIFT OR I WILL COME UP THERE MYSELF!' - this only provoked only a chorus of 'ooooo's' as is customary amongst our students. How amusing! I think somebody needs to give the crazy man counselling!
As I close there's one more thing I’d much like to know- who placed the offending material (the yellow pages) on the line- was it you? Do you know them? Was it funny? It was any of these please give us a bell!
The End (Or is it just the beginning)
Hello (once again) people.
Hope all is well. So, St Andrews exams have finished (for the most part) so we can now relax and take a brake yet still anticipating the real GCSE's just a few months away. Joy.
Couple of funny events happened recently. Myself and Matt were walking along Worthing Pier at about lunchtime on Thursday and a couple of police officers stopped us and asked why we wern't at school; we explained they accepted then they said "Ok, it's just because we were looking for someone." Quite sensiably Matt asked what school they came from and they said "Oh we don't no who they are." Please someone tell me, hoiw do you find someone if you don't know who they are? Very weird. At that point we left very quickly and went in search of.... well money would have been nice but more 'other stuff to do'.
And second on the list of funny, well should i say strange things that have happened. Myself and Matt were walking to school (today in fact) when behold a lamp post fell out the sky right next to us. Luckerly we surived (just) as the post was caught by a couple of people fitting a new one (no kidding). But yes, that was odd; it just fell, i mean yes it was attackwed to a truck but to be honest it wouldnt of helped much if it wasnt caught by them.
Thats about all for now. Oh and so you remember its my birthday on the 12th (next Thursday). (If you catch my drift.) Normally 'lol' would follow here as i am joking, but i really don't want to use those 'words' on this blog. Seems to downrate it somewhat. And on the 14th I got my CBT so it's all happening around here.
Well good luck with your lives everyone, and cya all soon.
Suicidal Seagulls
First off i'd like to say this blod is not dead. (unlike the seagull ill get onto later) Its just that its been Christmas, santa got stuck down my chimley so i had to spend a few days getting him out and now we have exams. So as you can tell its been a busy time for Strong and Gates. But we're back, and this time I bring you an interesting story on, you guessed it Suicidal Seagulls.
It all started in our RE exam when a seagul flew onto the top on the sports hall (where we do our exams) and started banging it's head on the roof and being made out of metal (the roof that is) it made an awful bu8t quite hilarious racket. So we now have the world first Suicidal Seagull!
More blogging to come shortly ladies and gents so stay with us over this short intermission.
Hope your all well.
New Year, New Term, New Exams!
I bid good evening to all you people out there roaming across the information super-highway which is, predominately, full of litter. As I pen this small note I am frantically trying to revise with my other hand (what is a quadratic anyway?!?) as for St Andrews students tomorrow marks the start of an examination period.
Davisons have already faced the wrath of such exams a month or two back and, just as we laughed then, the tables have now turned and they shall be laughing at us as we struggle through whilst still recovering from our new year hangovers! And what a first day we have too- maths, science and geography! Oh the thoughlessness of the timetable makers!
Anyway enough of my grumbling (revision to do) and I wish everyone who are undertaking in the mocks the very best of luck! (unless you want to do badly in which case you deserve everything you recieve!)
Happy New Year
Happy New Year everyone, and hope you have a good 2006 (althrough i haven't really noticed the difference yet...)
