An update on my activities

It's been a while since I've had the chance to sit down and write about what's been going on in my life, but don't panic, this won't be a massive, over-long post as I've not been up to much. My new job at Asda is going well, although I don't feel I'm being used to the maximum of my potential.…

Fucking snow

Well, that was a massive disappointment. Due to the snow I've not been able to get over to see Mum - that's twice in a year those little frozen fuckers have ruined a trip to see my family. I want to see how Jasmine is getting on, talk to my brother about things and I was looking forward to opening…

Not especially dramatic this week I'm afraid, just a nice look at my custom Spartan armour. I went with the Mjolnir Mark V helmet, the old Halo: Combat Evolved classic.

Bonus

I spent yesterday trawling the high streets asking local retailers if they had any vacancies, handing out CVs and getting application forms. The highlight of the day was quite unrelated to that though. I went into the Fareham Co-op and asked for 40 Royals Lights (that's two packs for all you non-smokers out there). She said "Ah, that's the blue…

Golden brown, texture like sun

Posted inReflections, VideogamesNo Comments
So Claire was going out so she asked me to watch her shortbread and take it out of the oven when it was golden brown. I kept an eye on it while playing Lips with Lewis, took it out when it was nice and golden, but later found out I had killed it because it was in there for too…
