Hey, looks like BB brought you back here as well as many other posters lol. Hope all is good with you.

Ahh I thought you'd like Jordan Davis! I'm not actually that into him but the Bristol gig is a Saturday so I can make a day of it/not worry about work the next day. I've got a couple of friends into country who I often go with but I will happily go on my own as well, I really enjoy that actually. Did you see the C2C lineup?? What do you think?

I'm quite enjoying BB but I feel it's missing a bit of a spark, they're all getting along a bit well and there's not been many talking points. I do think there's a bit too many of them in there as well, a lot of them just blend into the background. Jordan and Olivia are still quite entertaining though

Yeah C2C is pricey (and has got way more so just in the last year) but I think it's okay value if you make a day of it and see like 5/6 artists. I really liked some of the smaller stages this year. It gets a lot more expensive when you're paying nearly £8 a pint at the O2 though I bought Jordan Davis tickets today! Are you a fan of him?

Jordan was the standout for me on launch too, I actually said 'heres our winner' in the launch thread haha. I'm not so sure now though, there's no one I dislike but also no one I really like that much. Jordan is still one of the better ones though. Can't decide if I love Olivia or hate her but suppose it's still early days. Are you enjoying it still? You haven't become massively active yet eh

sadly that is true

Ahhh that is pretty traumatising!! I'm glad you survived though, they are evil creatures. I take it you're not a catch them in a glass and release them outside type of person then haha

Yeahh I think she is, one of them was like an intimate acoustic evening which was really cool with a load of stories and stuff. One appearance was a big concert at the Albert Hall which Kip Moore headlined - he was great. Ahh Heartache Medication, that takes me back those were good times really just hammering out the country tunes during lockdowns. Yeahh definitely would recommend C2C, I did the Sat this year with Lady A who were great. I'm hoping it's a strong lineup this time

Did you watch BB?? What did you think?

I know I was thinking about Christmas the other day haha. This year's been crazy, think partly cos it didn't really feel like we had a summer there was so much rain. I'm kinda ready for autumn and winter though and comfortable evenings in.

Oh nice quite like Chase Rice but I haven't heard that, will give it a listen. Ah yesss good taste, I've seen Morgan Wade 3 times in the last year or so so I'm a right groupie haha. Seen Ashley McBryde, Kip Moore and Tenille Townes this year, was supposed to be seeing Jon Pardi but the bastard cancelled his UK tour. Do you ever see any live stuff?

Aha so true about the oldies! I'm gutted we lost Chuff so there'll be no more party at Chuffs after evictions they were always a good wind up

Yeahh exactly it is a good number. I am terribly unproductive though at home and it does get a bit claustrophobic being cooped up there too long so I like going into the office every now and then. Get a quick dose of other people then retreat back to my mancave more and more jobs are going the work from home way now including ones you don't need much experience for so you could find something! My jobs okayish, a bit boring, but I'm moving to a new one in a month which I'm quite excited for (still a cushy government one). Ohh is your internet still ****e there? Even my parents tiny Gloucestershire village has got decent broadband now haha.

Yeah USA does sound interesting, least they've made it quite distinct from our one. Here's hoping your fella gets the win then and keeps taking down the hags

Has there always been word limits on visitor messages

Yeahh definitely best not to overthink it haha. That is the thing with ageing though, the age I am now used to seem so OLD but then you get there and it's like ahh actually nothings really changed from ten years ago haha. Apart from the body breaking down of course. Yeah it is mad expensive, saw there's like 25 people chasing every one place to rent as well so that's stupid. Least you can get there for the hair salon though, that's the most important thing

Aha nicee, Miranda still your favourite? Yeah I listen to loads still and I've been able to see a lot of live stuff since covid which has been cool. Morgan Wade is my favourite artist now, idk if you know her. My next gig is Morgan Wallen in London which I'm pretty buzzing for

Ohh yeah it'll be interesting how free voting shakes things up, will save some people's phone bills at least haha. Not sure if it'll make it harder or easier to save the best housemates

More of a recent thing, I finally got out of working in retail a couple of years ago and have a cushy government job now which is much better for my work/life balance

Ohh fair play he's a fighter then haha, I love housemates who play up to rivalries and stuff like that. BBUSA is pretty gameplay heavy isn't it? Be interesting watching the two series alongside each other
