hobbies

Due to the fact that the economy is in the toilet and food is inflating beyond my means (nearly) I have effectively stopped going out. This has had two effects.

1 – I have put on weight due to the fact that I am in the house eating and living a sedentary lifestyle.

2 – I have become a hermit. My standard day goes something like this:-

7.30am get up

8.00am walk to work

9.00 – 5.30pm work

6.30pm get home

7.00pm turn on the computer

1.00am go to bed

So I’ve turned to gaming to keep my spirits up.

Been playing the following a lot recently.

Pro Evo Soccer 2009

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

Fable 2.

And my favourite – Forza Motorsport 2.

The art package on the racing game is particularly excellent, and while I am useless at the art stuff – I have made a start on some cars.

They aren’t really that good but I am trying. Some of the designs on the Forza forums are awesome.

I will be investing in Gears of War 2 today.

I play online with a clan of guys who are alright and don’t trash talk, annoy me or mock me (too much) – www.rightasreign.co.uk. The only thing I need to do is get better as I am pretty much a N00b at present.

See you on live.

update-tacular

Okay - sorry been away for a while - this is in part due to a series of hospital appointments I am having and in part due to the fact that I can't be arsed.

a few things from the weekend -
1 - Did you see the faces of the Ferrari crew as they realised they'd lost the world championship? - that was pure comedy.
2 - Newcastle are now bottom because in part we have a D.O.F who can't buy a decent player and the fact that our team doesn't really seem to give a toss.
3 - Crissmass is nearly on us - thank god I won't be here.
