Sorry to sound cheesy, but if this is true then "the circle will be complete". Sounds good, but will have to see about it on Thursday. Edit: Seen Wikipedia, they confirm this. Looks like MS fans get Vader cheaper than PS3 fans get Yoda

I think i drank too much this weekend. Not that i feel ill, i just don't feel like drinking for a while. Anywho, i keep getting asked to do bingo duty on Fridays now that my mate who did these got banned and fired from the club, my answer is always no as i already have a full time job working 8am till 4:30pm and i want to go out on the weekend and enjoy myself. So i hand my keys over to the bar and head into town. Unlike some other members who don't do this and make up excuses, i told the secretary of the club i was at the Measure getting "pissed" as it were. If they keep asking me to do Fridays, i will basically quit my Wednesday night duty and Sunday morning cash-count and stay in/go out elsewhere. I can't do everything duty-wise.

Woke up this morning feeling very groggy after last nights big 6 hour piss-up. Doesn't regret a thing what-so-ever. Invited 2 mates over for a few beers, only one showed up. Spend the afternoon playin Mario Kart and Smash Brothers. And now very slowly getting ready for another night out tonight.

Scarface Al Pacino version. Enough said, 10/10

Day has been good, got 2 nice little surprises in work. 1 being a pay rise to my normal pay and 2 a cost of living payrise to the already risen pay (4.6% to be exact). Plus overtime (5 hours) and a £60 tax rebate again. So a nice little nest-egg of money coming my way in less than 2 hours. Other than that. Its been a good day.

Happy Birthday, have a good day.

In no particular order 1 - Controls Ingenious. The hand on screen moves with every movement you make with your hand. A welcoming relief from a conventional controller. 2 - Games Minus the casual games, there are some great games out including Mario Kart, Smash Brothers and Metroid. All of which are amazing. 3 - Affordable At time of release was the cheapest home console available. With a 360 and a Wii bought together was/is cheaper than a PS3. 4 - Free Wi-Fi Free online gaming with a reliable signal and hardly any lag. 5 - Virtual Console The best bit really. A blast from the past. All the games you missed out on are available for a new generation to play as well as the older generation who wish to relive memories from the past.

Beverly Hills Cop II Watched this again on Thursday night, still freakin brilliant. Liked the whole "we really need to have a chat" was good as it progressed. Story is good. 9/10 Wild Hogs 4th watch of this, just felt like watching it after seeing about 200 bikes go past my house. 9/10

Sounds good to me, for when i don't have time to just sit there and edit manually. Seriously Forza got boring by the editing to the extremes just to be able to race a car. Hope BK isn't as bad as this.

Too true, I'm currently saving £1500 to go to Egypt (spending money as well). If i joined this scheme and received the £25,000 and went to Egypt then, i wouldn't enjoy it as much as if i saved for it. People who join the scheme i mentioned need help.

Big scams these are. They all work the same, bring people in and pay out a prize to certain people to advertise the scheme and to entice more people to join. There is one going around my area right now as well as in Chepstow and in Newport. Basically you give the person in charge of this scheme £3000 (thats a lot of money, but you only pay this once) and then entice 2 people to join behind you who in turn pay £3000 and entice 2 people each to join behind them. There are also two choices, join someone else's chart or make your own. You move up this chart with every person paying £3000 behind you until you reach the top and then you get a £25,000 payout of which you must give back £5000 to go to charity. Apparently that makes it legal. From paying in £3000 to getting the £25,000 takes about 4 months give or take. Now the flaws of this: Only women can join and receive any money, payouts are booked at peoples houses not at a set place and everyone who wins this sometimes gets greedy and puts themselves back in above where you are and get more payouts before you get one. I have been asked to join one of these charts as it were and i told them to stuff off. It is all i hear in work, down the pubs and everywhere i go. And every time i hear it i get asked to join and that pisses me off to the point where yesterday i said to the last person who attempted to make me join that next time i am asked by anyone i will smack them one.

Weekend, drinking and lack of sleep. Not a good mix. Thats basically what i have been doing this weekend, nothing but pool and getting drunk. In between this, not a lot.

Bratwerst and Curry Sauce flavour. Awesome combination.

I havn't personally seen funny number plates, but one i did see a while ago was CU18 TRS

Suppose that is good, for a limited edition anyway.

Get the Police involved, he assaulted you and caused a gash on your face so to me that see's a dismissal for him. If not, take it further up the ranks to management above store management. He will get the sack for this, violence in the workplace is not tolerated by any means. Where i work it is instant dismissal.

I once went as a Ghostbuster when i was younger, was the only one to go as a human to a party. Everyone else went as zombies, ghosts, werewolves etc. Was fun. Not going to any parties this year i don't think, but always i look out for funky costumes people wear.

My thoughts: Yes, parents should be able to smack their own children if they are misbehaving. I misbehaved so i was smacked when i was younger and it taught me to not do what i did again and to listen to your parents. If this law was passed then i think the whole UK would have un-controllable kids even more so than now On the positive side of this law, there would be little chance of properly enforcing it because parents would still smack their kids and put up a fight against this law being passed and so on.

I got about 14 months left on mine, re-newed it with a month to go. And now to look forward to all the new games online over the Christmas period. First up NBA 09.

Pre-ordered it an hour ago, £39 from Game.

Gorgeous Stars Jackie Chan. In a surprisingly good movie for a PG rating as well. The end fight is good and showcases some of the best free-style martial arts/kick boxing i've seen in a long time. No blood, which surprised me for a martial arts movie of this sort. Story of the movie is pretty good, its more of a romantic/action style to it. 9/10

Gaming for me gives me a break from the real world life. It allows me to enjoy myself with no worries about life outside. I do like online gaming, it allows me to get better at games by playing people i never played before. Single player action is also good for me as well. I'm not a hardcore gamer like i used to be once upon a time, but a casual to hardcore gamer who likes to play games to enjoy them and beat them in his own time.

Its funny how many of us Brits accept American shows and find them funny while it is reversal over there and they don't accept Brit shows hardly.

The "M" burger, the only McDonalds burger made with 100% meat (no other stuff, just the meat). Thats what i thought the ad was on about. Anyway, changing Pizza Hut to Pasta Hut. Risky move, but it could be a promising new move for the company. I for one go to italian resturants for pasta and pizza places for pizza. Perhaps this is the companies attempt at taking customers from these italian resturants.
