Life is good.

Just had a very pleasant weekend.

Went home for the weekend, as most of you know. Saw some mates on friday night that I hadn't seen for a while.

Helped redecorate a mates flat in the day saturday, and got to use one of those steam wall paper stripper things. Took a bit of getting used to. They can also strip poly-filla, and take tiles off walls as well, by the way.

I wasn't supposed to take the tiles off, but I left the steamy thing on the wall a bit too long, and a big chunk of plaster and a couple of tiles kind of fell off.

Still, I'd rather make these mistakes in someone else's house, eh? :-D

Saturday night rocked. It was a mates birthday, so me and my brother and a load of mates went out. We ended up at this pub with a late licence and it had a dancefloor as well.

The aftershocks were flowing quite freely, mixed with beer and double vodka and red bull, so we were all pretty drunk.

Then it happened. "Mr Boombastic" by Shaggy came on.

I was God.

Me and my brother RULED that dancefloor. Man, I was a hero. At least, that's what I thought at the time. I was "Mr Smooth", the number 1 lover man in my postal district.

However, in reality, I was just a drunk leper jumping around completely out of time with the music. I.e, we looked a right couple of t**s.

This morning was a little shakey, but after a bacon sandwich I was feeling fine. Had a nice big roast dinner (my mum does THE best roast dinner EVER. No argument), then went to my brothers flat to watch the football.

Spurs lost, another result as far as I was concerned.

Tehn had to travel back to Surrey, and was miffed when I missed my train from Waterloo by about 1 minute, and had to hang around for half an hour for the next one.

However, in keeping with the rest of the great weekend, I found a £20 in one of the automatic ticket machine things. So I went and purchased the latest OPSM2, witha demo of Herdy Gerdy and Maximo, another result!

I get home, go straight round to the missus for a couple of hours of lovin', I've just got back and found that Rez has arrived over the weekend, and it was free (GAD prize from a couple of weeks ago, Cheers SR!). So I'm off to play that now!

Life is good.

Until I have to go to work tomorrow, but I'm not thinking about that just yet...

Just think - some poor guy is walking around missing £20

It could've been a homeless guy, all the money he had in the world

It could've been a fellow student - £20 is a LOT of money to us

It could've been a single mother's, now she needs to get money to pay for her kids another way



Anyway, enough of depressing you, congrats

And my GAD prize Die Hard 1 + 2 arrived today, just before I had to go to 6th form

Got home and watched them

Woo!

You could ask that of pretty much every thread in this forum.

It's here because this is the Chat forum. I just thought I'd post something last night, and decided to write this lot down.

ON a different note, it's good to see you back Sniper. You plan on staying for a bit? We've got a load of newbies that need sorting out.

Lucky Git.

I have just discovered that I have been studying for an exam that is next week and I have an exam tomorrow that is meant to be the exam next week. So that sucks.

My weekend wasn't quite that good, got drunk as usual and didin't do much else. I uni early today and have quite a bit of work to do but hopefully when I get home Herdy gerdy and state of emergency will be there.

Well done on the notable thing by the way.

I got Rez on Saturday too from GAD... completed it by that night, and now I'm on the extra modes!

Great weekend! I'd give to have all that. :D

You found £20, you ruled the dance floor, Rez came, so on...

Well done! ;-)
