Me and my wife are after a new, slightly bigger house to rent. We found an amazing one that we were prepared to pay slightly more than we'd budgeted for as it seemed too good to be true. Unfortunately, that's precisely what it was. According to the estate agents, it wasn't on the market, despite me ...

The story about the escaped Egyptian cobra from New York's Bronx Zoo. Someone is posting as the snake on Twitter, bloody hilarious!

Currently going between Super Meatboy (trying to 100% it), and Portal. For the cake, obviously.

I'm intrigued by Splosion Man but never made the leap across into purchasing it. I'll give the demo a crack.

I haven't seen any other Hatebreed fans around here, so slightly cautious about this next one! Nevertheless, my ears are still gleefully ringing after last night's battering at their gig in Leeds. Oh yes.

I've finally started playing Limbo, months after downloading it. Its a great indie game, though so far its difficulty might be overstated - I can get through most puzzles or obstacles through simple trial and error, if all else fails.

I've sat through Corrie the last few nights and I could've sworn Lee Mack was the firefighter saving Rita Sullivan?!

The fact I'm still here and not doing Christmas shopping. I'm still at bloody work on a Saturday!!!

Looks like I'm doing a full shift. On top of that, I've to figure a way back home on rapidly decreasing public transport. Farcical.

Currently reading 'Awkward Situations For Men' by Danny Wallace. Perfectly suits my daily commute. And hilarious too.

Personally, I find Super Meat Boy is eating a lot of my spare time at the moment. Its frustratingly evil but it takes me back to a time of really solid hard games in my childhood. Awesome game - though really sodding difficult.

Kyuss tickets sealed!

Heard from my parents their dog died last night Wasn't the best way to start the day.

And if Last FM now only allows previews...grrrrrr!

Its raining where I am - and that means I'll cool down in no time. Its ridiculously humid in my office and I can't take it - will be off home and in that rain in a few minutes!

Eyehategod in less than 3 hours time!

Looking back on the somewhat intellectual conversation I had with my fiancée and our friend as we recovered from a night out on Saturday. I could never have that sort of conversation with anyone else I know. Looking forward to more hangover-induced discussion!
