Morning all.

A fairly good weekend, despite my eldest losing her iPod Touch on Saturday night (luckily found on Sunday morning, but not until after a restless night).

Went to Crealy on Saturday and Sunday, Parents came and took us out for lunch yesterday, so can't really complain.

Only one more day until the PS Vita launch. Excited now, I love hardware launches.

Morning.

Looks like we're off to Crealy today, so I've left you all the questions for Pete's excellent Random Facts thread to work through.

Ta, though 'oral exam' would have worked for me...

Are you surprised Alfonse? I imagine everybody currently 'popular' in the U.S. was falling over themselves to appear in what is likely to be the highest grossing film before the summer for 'their kids'.

Or money.

Saw Muppets last night, really enjoyed the first half but the second had far too many cameos from celebrities I hate for me to truly enjoy it.

In case you haven't been following it (shame on you), pete has kindly offered up his recent GAD as a prize to the winner of the Random Facts thread.

This will only be running until March 1st, so head over there and get guessing!

@HM: What is a 'viva'? First I thought it was an auto-correction for 'exam', then I started thinking it was short for vivisection, but that makes little sense for an eye doctor...

Certainly will DL.

Terrible to hear that HighFlyer, I hope you find out soon, as so you can start looking elsewhere.

I have a mock viva in a horrible subject today. Only 5 minutes, but its one of those Vivas where they push you until you feel stupid (i.e. even if you know lots, they keep at you until you doubt yourself). Today shouldn't be too bad, but my main Viva will be 30 minutes long :/

Morning all.

White chocolate porridge consumed. Coffee in the process of being consumed. More trade ins for the Vita ready for lunch time and a fair bit of work to do in between that.

Should be a great opportunity!

Es ist guter HM. Gehen Sie dafur .... es ist die ganze Erfahrung :¬)

Work, Gym, Sleep...My life at the moment boils down to three words, pretty much.

Apart from, you know, the uncertainty of what happens when my contract runs out in June, that's also taking up a fair bit of my concern.
