Congrats to the Tampa Bay Buc’s who thrashed the Oakland Raiders in Sunday nights’ NFL Superbowl.
The late night was made all the more worthwhile by the excellent coverage from Five here in the UK. In fact, their coverage all season has been the best we’ve had in the UK in many years – well done :o)
Saturday night was my first in attendance at the legendary Movie & Game night at monsieur Cedrick Collomb’s place.
Cedrick has a H – U – G – E 42 inch tv, so I couldn’t resist bringing along TimeSplitters 2 for some four-player blasting. A fine, if brief, killing frenzy was enjoyed by a few of us before moving on to the first DVD of the night Galaxy Quest.
My fellow Questerians enjoyed this as much as ever and it served as a good warm up for movie number two, The Thomas Crown Affair. This I had never seen before, but I quite enjoyed the well paced story and the games played by the two leads.
Our host gets a ten out of ten for a night well worth the short trip – I’ll be back next time! :o)
Sometimes, when you think you’re doing the right thing for yourself and others tell you the same, nothing can prepare you for the worst possible outcome.
Today had been going pretty well – Sal managed to help fix cousin Iain’s PS2, which along with much hilarity made for a good old-fashioned, light-hearted Friday afternoon.
Sadly that was all to be forgotten an hour or so later when a difficult situation came home to roost in the worst possible way. Next week will be one of the most difficult of my life to date, I suspect. To say I’m aprehenisive would be a bit of an understatement.
