I have just watched AC/DC's new DVD, Live At River Plate and all it's done is make me wish that they would come back to Scotland!
I can't believe it's almost 2 years since they rocked Hampden and my god I have missed them. At least there is lots of tribute acts that can satisfy my need for rock until they may decide to tour again as Brian Johnson hasn't ruled out the possibility so...I shall hold onto that hope.
This year, however also holds a very significant time for AC/DC as on the 6th of July it would have been Bon Scott's 65th birthday if he had not sadly passed away. It's so true the saying that the good die young.
But, I have discovered something very exciting that Bon's hometown are doing. On the 6th of July for an undisclosed number of weeks, Kirriemuir's Gateway to the Glens musuem are holding a one off exhibition of Bon Scott memorabilia.
AAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! I'm so excited! it only takes 3 and a half hours or so on the bus to get there so it means boarding the bus at 6 in the morning but that's not so bad to see something truely spectacular which, in all possibillity may never be seen again?
I can't wait xD hopefully by then I will have my tattoo done, a fitting tribute to AC/DC on my wrist saying 'Let There Be Rock'
All I can say is Bon Scott, here I come...

Gah! Where Has This Year Gone?
I must admit, I have not done very well in my quest to keep the Internet up to speed with the goings on in my life. I can't believe it's been a year since I was last on this site!
Once again though, quite a lot has happened in a year, as things tend to spiral uncontrollably in my life, but this time, in a good way!
Regarding my exams that I was studying for last time I posted, I passed them all with some of the best marks that the school had seen that year so they gave me a scholarship!
As well as doing great in my exams I got accepted into university to study the course I really wanted, Radiotherapy & Oncology. I have also just recently got my exam results back and have successfully passed my first year of uni and qualify for entry of my 2nd year.
Also, to top it all off I completed my Duke of Edinburgh Bronze award and I am now able to move onto my silver award.
As you can see, I've been a very busy bee!!! and I'm not done yet! Last Sunday I took part in the Race for Life and this weekend I will also be taking part in the East End 5k.
Now when I think about it though, reading through all the others posts I have done I sound like a completely different person. The past few years have been pretty tough but hopefully we've turned a corner and it's the start of something new and even better.
