Waves, Walking, W*nker

Today being saturday me and my friends decided to pay Rivington a visit. We walked up to the Pigeon tower and beyond, the wind was utterly mind-blowing. You could almost lie at a 45° angle permanently. Needless to say I am now frozen, was very fun though. However one inconceivable half-wit of a chav decided to kick his dog in the face, with us 5 as witnesses. He began to bleed [the dog] and the man seemed shocked. I have never seen such poor acting "did you bite your tongue? are you OK?"- git. I'm sure that if he had done it again, me, laura and will would have stepped in and sorted this fat, ignorant pesticide out. Pushed the w*nker down the hill perhaps.


Oh and here is a useful link for a nice feature recently added to iTunes. Heard it on the radio is a fantastic little thing that I use mostly to look at the new releases, it goes far further than the top 100 and gives details and recommendations (somewhere). I'll stop this bloody advertising of things now.

Anyway diving this week was such a dramatic improvement, although the no-buddy thing is lonely and miss pushes us too hard. She gave me a snorkel and mask to practice clearing it in the bath. Honestly, I think that the last 4 baths I have had where because of Ms indirectly.

Good evening...

Obama, Obama, Oliver [in ailment]

No enhanced goodies this week, instead a rare sound clip, utterly original, of Obama's inaugurations The quality isn't the best thing I have ever put my name too, but the substance of what you would expect is to be found. Forget that, Obama is president. Wow, although the 4 people I've spoken to about it (all coincidently from differing countries-one USA) are of the same opinion: "yeah Obama, but what can one man do" After-all to quote a BBC journalist this week; "Obama is no messiah, said Michelle Obama, he leaves his dirty socks on the bedroom floor", as a spare of the moment thing I also said that Jesus wore sandals and therefore never whift a sock in his life, so 2 cases against Mr Newbie (!)



Saturday we stopped off at school for a D of E planner that lasted for 5ish ours, I have never been so bored. Will and Laura, the life and soul usually of the group were seperately compromised because of the party the night before (which I hasten to add was never invited too) Laura with a hangover and Will, boringly, tired. I've milked that shit as much as I can-eww.

Finally I leave on this, a few days ago Oliver sprained his foot, according to an X-ray he insisted on having. Yet suspiciusly today we were at Aston park (there is a bridge on the way in where Dad's Uncle collapsed a few weeks after a stroke had rendered him with the mental age of a child, and died sadly- he was silent over that part) and Oliver was jogging, running and climbing up frames in the play area! Great, but the doctor said if it was a sprain it would take 4/6 weeks to get back to normal. Suspicious? You judge for yourself.

Planes, Problems, Perfection

Ha ha, a great splash happened in the past few hours. In that a plane took off from a new york airport, ran into a set of birds and the engines cut out. The pilot saved the day however, landing in the Hudson river.


Here's the plane going for a dip. I think the fishers are a bit peeved.



Other fantastic details, I finished Angels and Demons-superb, I also finished noughts and crosses- even better. The racial conflict and issues are very worrying and this coupled with a louis theroux documentary (in Johannesburg) made me suddenly feel so strongly about racism that I actually feel disgusted at some acts researched recently. Prejudice is just cold blooded and malicious, there is no other words to define it. The massacre at My Lai is one such perfect example of this (bloody americans).

Why linger in the past and wade through imperfections? I have far more up beat information to inform you of: I am currently on a grade A in GCSE maths. Today I found out that if you couple exam A and B together you get 220 UMS, or for the normal amongst us that's, 4 marks into an A, low A but still as important an A as any other. What this tells me though is that I NEED to work very hard and be very thorough with revision. Hence the top secret, rather cool maths project.

I leave you with this: "In every end there is a beginning"

Nytheria KILLS Warlic.

AHHHHH, how could she do such a thing!

Still here is me posing in electrified Falconreach!
Yet more fantastic imagery here as I pose for perhaps... no that's modest my greatest Age of Empires achievement. I lost 13, perhaps 14 men

SCUBA, Scrubs and Schiller

I guess there are a few things to mention since the last post. Indeed the first post. First there was the macworld keynote that had present a great number of genius' yet not the greatest, Steve. Phil Schiller, stood at the final apple macworld and gave a keynote for 1 hour and 30 minutes, with guest Tony Bennett. He was very good and interesting, and his release of iWork 09 and iLife 09 was fantastic. I just really missed Mr Jobs, he wasn't even a spectator. I presume then that he is much more ill than he is letting on. Anyway, the products look great, I am specifically jealous of keynote 09 and iPhoto's new face recognition, as well as iMovie's brilliant new 09 software that will easily wipe the floor with movie maker. Phil Schiller at the Macworld 09 Keynote. Old Steve would be proud.

The other point is my first PADI diving lesson. I was easily the worst in the group, it was a horror story. I made a mistake with assembly, had to redo and therefore was always a stage behind and cocked up, in front of miss and the group for everything. Damn. I have a point to prove next time.

Angels and demons was finished. 5 stars, fantastic. Noughts and Crosses has been started and is almost as good. Very intelligent and interesting. Another thing was the return of my favourite show, possibly, the infamous Scrubs! I saw it through SurfTheChannel and it was awsomne dude. Monica is on it! Yeah! (I'm in surfer mode)

My First Week

So I begin with a brief post on what I've done this week. Well christmas is the main item I presume. The visits of relatives, the Gates of Bengal restaurant and of course presents. I'd like to mention my favourite 3 (as the family will crop up no doubt throughout the year.)

Number 3: The Tales of Beedle the Bard by JK Rowling

Not read it yet but as a thoughtful, inexpensive gift from mother it is sure to be a nice read. It contains stories of wizzarding lore, translated by Hermy herself.

Number 2: Angels and Demons by Dan Brown

As I've read 3/4 so far of this novel this shall be brief. I love this book so far, so graphic, so engaging. It is so very much more interesting than the Da Vinci code. A cracking bestseller. This will be picked up on the 7th when I shall have certainly finished this thing. Just wish it would have come with the illustrations, the places are so interesting historically and I would like a visual reference.

Number One: iPod Touch 16GB

Family hit, wonderful piece of kit: "The Funnest iPod Ever"


See ya next week for macworld (without jobs, sob) and angels and demons review!
