Hurrah for the weekend! Friday was ace - hanging out with SGUK types is definitely heading to the top of my list of favourite things. Just a shame that I didn't get to chat to a lot of the people I'd not met before properly, but there's always next time! Not sure if I can do next weekend though, but we'll see...

sod that for a game of soldiers! Well, I have done that myself before, but less and less nowadays. I'm seeing RotK on Saturday hopefully, and then onto the pub

U mentioned UGC WIQ in SGUK, does the WIQ stand for West India Quays? I live in Shadwell (i dont mind if ne1 else see's, they're not gonna wanna come find me there!!) do you live out in the east end?
Ho hum well it's the beginning of another week and it's also less than 3 weeks until xmas. Have bought bugger all so far for anyone, although I did put tinsel up everywhere this weekend (which the cats will no doubt demolish in due course) 
More importantly RotK is now less than 2 weeks away, hurrah! After having been to the exhibition at the Science...

I thought the season was pretty good. I had no expectations going into it though. I'd say it's better than 90% of TV out there.....worth checking out at least.
maelwys:
Whats Dragonmeet then? Sounds interesting.
Well the water got fixed, which was nice. Been playing Mage today, which was cool. Still loading albums on my Zen, which is taking forever. Getting very excited now about RotK, which is only 3 weeks away. Man I'm such a geek...

I love that game system.

Unfortunately my water tank has decided to break and piss water all over my porch. Even more unfortunately I can't find a decent pair of pliers to shift the bloody valve to turn it off for a while. Help is on its way but I sense some inevitability in having to pay vast sums of money to get someone to replace the stopcock completely in...

So ya bought the Zen in the end? Cool, huh? Dropped mine again today, it just bounced & kept on playing

Hey what's up man? So I'm reading the final fiction book in the Brujah trilogy, pretty good so far. The Baali have some involvement. Though I never got into Demon the Fallen, From what I've read so far it seems as though they're going to have a big part in the whole end of times deal (Baali, Demons, etc). Care to shed any light...hint hint.?
Hmm someone's been playing with the site again. No complaints though. I can use my five slots to pay tribute to the coolest sci-fi sgs on the site!
Weekend went ok, and as I expected things got a little heated between a few of ths guys. For the record Inquisitor sucks, and I'll be taking it up with GW in due course. Grr.

the 5 slots is pretty good, at least now I wont have to rotate favs every now and then.
I've never played Inquisitor, from what I've seen of it didnt really appeal. I'll stick to fantasy battle and 40k for now

The earlier versions of warhammer and 40k seemed more skirmish based. As updates were published they tended to be aimed at younger and younger age groups and simplified a lot of the rule. Hence nowdays you get 5 year olds in the bloody shops.
I think I might have Fantasy Warriors, probably in storage like so much of my other stuff. I would definitely be interested in having a butchers at other rules you're working on

Mmmm I have a new toy! It's very shiny, and it plays a *lot* of music! Kudos to Geronimo for recommending it to me...
Off to Stoke at the weekend for beer, games, and probably a punch-up with some old mates from uni days.
BTW anyone else seen the TT extended version yet? Very cool, lots of sly bits here and there that you'll miss...

I'll be getting the Two Towers next week. Unfortunately my rent and council tax have gone through this week so I'm counting the pennies. And I'll definitely be getting the Breed77 album, your description sounds good.
Have you been in the Escort Tavern in Watford? That used to be good as well, dunno what its like nowdays though.
Enjoy your trip to Stoke

Well the gig last night was pretty cool. Breed 77 are definitely my new favourite band. Thankfully (and finally) managed to get hold of their album whilst I was there too. Hurrah!
In other news, I am now the sole owner of my house. Hence the free cash to get a shiny gadget or two. Just need to get a new job and this one...

I managed to get tonsilitus out of nowhere. Again. Tsk. Hell on earth. Still recovering really. Had to miss the pirate party in the end due to lurgy, antibiotics and general tiredness. Heard it was great too. Curses. I'm beginning to wonder whether i've got some negative karma stored up somewhere somehow...

Yay, I have money again! Promptly spudded a huge wad on Vampire books and music CDs. Ah well. What else is it good for? 
Well although Friday looks like it's going to be a quiet one, I now have a pirate party to look forward to on Saturday! Tsk like I need an excuse to pretend to be a pirate...

Not a great deal to report. More skint than a very skint thing that is very skint. Only a few days to pay day, and only another week or so before remortgage comes through. And counting...
Saw Kill Bill though. Bloody fantastic. A veritable smorgasbord of filming techniques and action styles. The narrative might be a little threadbare, but it was joyfully executed. And Lucy...

Well I'm back from Barcelona. Not gonna bore everyone with too many details, but had a bloody fantastic time. Didn't see much of the city, but met a whole bunch of cool people, played a lot of cards, and drank a shed-load of alcohol. I really need some time to recover, but alas I'm straight back to work tomorrow.
Not much else to report otherwise....

God I wish I could NOT take everything to heart. It drives me nuts when something doesn't run according to plan or when there's a problem I can't fix right away! Then I can't sleep at all, my mind keeps returning to what's bothering me... you get the idea.
Cool you had a great time in Barcelona! Did you try to go to the top of La Sagrada Familia templa? That's something, believe me!
Nothing really new around here. Haven't seen Kill Bill yet, I still have my doubts about it, although everybody seems to have loved it. We'll see!

Well I'm glad to say the pirates LRP thing was a huge success in the end. Ended up typing stuff up and printing it out until 3.00am on Friday and into Saturday daytime as well, but when it started it was f***ing brilliant. Watching 18 pissed-up nutters in pirate costumes going Arrr!!! for 3 hours made it all worthwhile. Hurrah for me!
Now looking forward...

My ex girlfriend co-signed with her previous boyfriend on a credit card and ended up having to pay about 6 grand in the end because her then exboyfriend said fuck it......he didn't really care about his credit. So her credit would have been shot if she didn't pay it. Tough learning experience. Just a story though as I have no idea of your relationship with your ex.

hi Hermes, was great to meet you on friday...
Ended up in the Ship on Wardour St last night (after Killing Joke) - the place was absolutely kicking. Seems to have picked up in the last few months as the "fun pub to go to" - it was packed and the music was excellent (FNM, RATM, ACDC, Only Ones, Banshees, Dead Kennedys, Nirvana).
mind you, our barman was deaf, and the music was so loud, we ended up with some really funny drink orders....
see you soon mister
