England Is Cold

So, I've been back in England for 5 days now! And I think it's rained every day. Despite not going through much of a timezone difference (1 hour + 1 hour leaving BST), I appear to be jetlagged - getting tired at midnight and waking up at 6am is not really my style...

I am gutted at the lack of comments on my South Africa entries. I know lots of people read things and don't bother to comment because they don't know what to say, but all that's needed is a little 'Sounds like fun', 'You suck ...

Hello Faithful Readers!

Miss me?

Thanks to everyone who commented on my previous entries, and may everyone else burn in the eternal fires of hell!

Speaking of fires, I went to a fireworks display last Friday in Bath, it was quite cool. Well, it was bloody freezing (ahhaha I crack myself up sometimes, I really do), but I stood there anyway and watched thousands of pounds go up in smoke and pretty explosions.

It will also be a handy opportunity for me to get my glasses - yes, that's right, I am in Bath, but my glasses are still in Sevenoaks. I am ...

Mmmm head crabs

So this morning a little jiffy bag arrived from Play - yay!

I'm not sure about this Steam nonsense, but Half-Life 2 looks pretty neat, even on this machine. I was just going to go in and mess about a bit, but in the end I accidentally played through the first few levels. I was as hooked as in Far Cry, only I didn't even have any weapons. I was mostly amused by the way the scientist looked shocked when I threw a can of coke at his head. And when I clubbed a policeman round the head with ...

My Monday

Many people ask me what I spend my days doing, what with me not having a job and not having uni or anything. Well, since today is pretty much the second or third day since coming back to Bath where I have nothing specific to do and therefore appears to be an excellent candidate for describing to you, my faithful readers.

So, without further ado, here is My Monday*.

10:00Wake up, stomp to computer, check e-mail, read the news and my daily comics. I have something to do to the tonbschl site, Iran have stopped playing with uranium ...
