Aha! Here's the bloke who posted it! I caught him trying to speed away in his car!

Greetings!

Just wanted to post this postcard I got through the post. I'm not sure who it's from, but it stank of rum and the spelling wasn't very good.

Little Big Update

I'm still alive! Honest!

But I can't be bothered writing anything more just now. I'll be back, I promise...

Libraries and time

Well, it's been a while since I've written anything here. I'm currently in the process of backtracking my input on the net, and my blog has largely ignored for quite some time.

The last couple of months have just been revising for my A2 exams, but I've got a few other things done in the meantime. After the exams, I hope to go to Lincoln to do a Graphic Design course and get a degree, after that... it's anyone's guess. A little bit closer, this summer, I'm going to London with my girlfriend for a few days (being at seperate colleges these last two years hasn't damaged our relationship, but we both feel we need to see more of each other). After London, I'm off to Florida, America. Which is going to be really cool. Disney World and Universal Studios

Guitar Hero Time

"FOR THOSE WHO ARE ABOUT TO ROCK, WE SALUTE YOU!!!"

I'm about and go and kick ass at a Guitar Hero party. I spent a bit of time practising 'Sweet Child of Mine' on Expert and 'Freebird' on Hard (I can just about pull off each) So I'm good to go. The others don't stand a chance! It's time for some 'shreducation' guys! I'm not bad at Guitar Hero. I've almost finished playing Guitar Hero 2 on Hard mode, which is pretty difficult stuff.
For those not in the know, Guitar Hero is a rythmn music game for PS2 (They made the second game for XBOX 360 too) but it's awesome because the whole thing is themed on Rock'n'Roll guitar classics. As you can see from the screen-shot above, the aim of the game is to hit the different coloured buttons (which correspond to the same coloured buttons on your controller) as they scroll down the fret-board towards you. The game comes packaged with a guitar-shaped controller which is easily one of the coolest things ever invented. Ask anyone! The games come with a soundtrack comprising of some of the greatest rock songs ever made. 'Iron Man' by Ozzy, 'Sweet Child of Mine' (as mentioned above) by Guns and Roses, 'Jessica' (better known as the 'Top Gear' theme tune) by The Allman Brothers band, 'Carry on my Wayward Son' by Kansas, 'Ace of Spades' by Motorhead, and 'Freebird' by Lynard Skynard to name a few of my favourites. This is one of my favourite games of all time, and I'm a gmaer, so that's saying something!
Wish me luck!

Skirt Shopping

... Before you ask, it wasn't for me. It was for my girlfriend... so, in a way, it probably was for me. Anyway, what matters is that I'm a bit of a rubbish shopper. I'm not sure if there's a technique or something. If there is, I'm clearly lacking it. Ruth, bless her heart, admitted I wasn't easy to shop with. Not in so far as 'I'm really picky' but rather the opposite. I like the way she looks in everything, so when I'm asked for my opinion I guess the reply 'You look wonderful' can get a bit repetitive. I suppose I should be more critical, offer some alternatives or something... I'll see if there's a 'definitive' guide to shopping to help me along. For the time being though, I'm quite happy with the skirts we managed to buy (again... both for her) ... (well... I suppose one of them is quite short...) *smiles*

Anyway, I'm off to babysit next door for 'until whenever'

Bruce Springsteen: Magic

Well, after a bit of searching on google images for the album art of Bruce's new album, I grudgingly reached the conclusion that it can't be found (I know what it looks like because the CD's on my desk in front of me). So I did a bit of research... 5 seconds later I realised that the album was in fact only released today *duh* So here's the album art I scanned in, just in case anyone else is searching.

As of right now I'm still not even half-way through hearing the whole album yet, so a review will have to come at a later date ^^;
