What Morrissey related things have you done this year?

[lightupvirginmary]

I'm such a loser! I mean, a big fan.

*went to the filming of the Album Chart Show at KOKO
*went to Alexandra Palace (where my boyfriend got a hallowed bit of Moz shirt)
*went to the V festival
*went to the filming of the Russell Brand show
*went to 2 Quarry nights
*went to see The Smyths twice (OK, that's clutching at straws!)
*still to come... Moz at Wembley this week.

The only thing I didn't go to was the Palladium (which i can't even look at a picture of) but i stood outside trying in vain to get a ticket.

Can you top this? I've gone Moz mad this week.

I ate several KFCs and McDonalds, so I'm definitely minus a few brownie points (and plus a few pounds).

also wore a shirt and tie a suit jacket with two buttons.

looked for and scanned james dean/ montgomery clift pictures so i could post them in the Pin ups thread. i don't know if he has looked at pictures of these guys this year but it is related isn't it!

watched a programme about the moors murders.

wrote to relative who lives outside of manchester.

 

[lilybett]

Oh, my God I forgot! I went and got my photo taken outside Salford Lads Club! MY best friend's at Manchester Uni, so that's an excellent excuse to go up there loads. I never stop getting excited when the bus up to hers goes past the Holy Name Church!

pls don't cry or want to die lilybett

Don't worry, lovely. It just happens from time to time when you have a penchant for gin aka 'mascara thinner' I have way too much to live for. E.g. telling my tutors I've been 'ill' for TEN WEEKS wasn't really washing and I have to go see them this week and I was well scared...until I found a pair of crutches under the stairs tonight! The perfect crime!

Ooh. So did I. The one with Veronica from Shameless as Myra?

 

[The Cat's Mother]

I did silly things with wool!

 

[Busy Clippers]

Cat's Madre, they're ^ cute! Lifesize next??

In no particular order:

1. Bought insanely overpriced shirt from Salford Lad's Club (it was for a good cause)
2. Convinced one person to like Moz on the strength of YATQ
3. Transatlantic jaunt to see him
4. Manipulated unsuspecting neighbor into giving her cats Morrissey song names
5. See my post count? (not all posts were to mack on Cod)
6. Actually paid for all of the Morrissey music that I bought
7. Uploaded Sweetie Pie for Puddle (Morrissey's beautiful when he's angry)
8. Wait until you see my Christmas card
9. Became half of The Brownings Of Off Topic (guilding the lily??)
