Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

one of the best things about taking 7 months to do the garden is that mud doesn't need mowing and mud is all i have at the moment :))

Bos

I have some good grass you can have ;)

pth, something you brought back from your south american travels, perhaps ? ;)

I got a Wii this week.
You are all very unlikely to hear anything from me for several years as I test pilot it for the kids.

Whats a Wii Al ???

Nintendo Wii.
Y'know. Wireless game station jobby.
Great fun. The kids aren't getting a look in.

Same happened to me Al ,PS2 ,bought it for my son once and ended up mastering Colin Mcrae Rally ,took 6 months mind ,,then i found that when i was a little drunk my sector times went down so i bought an SAS game where you infiltrate the Iraq desert and blow things up ,now to get through that to the last stage took another 6 months, then it broke , still my son got good marks at school that year. Good luck .

I'm knackered Jimmy.
This thing is all about holding the controller and instead of pushing buttons, actually moving as you want the character to move.
Golf is superb fun and has improved my swing tremendously but the boxing has really taken it out of me.
Don't even ask about the tennis.

How's the game going Al? ,remember make a rule for yourself ,always try to start finishing the bit your on about 4am then you can be in bed for 5...

Its a very physical game, jimmy, twisting the remote this way and that.
I got some really funny looks at work today as I sat rubbing my wrist and complaining of the soreness.
It got even worse when I explained I'd been playing with myself all night.
When people laughed at me I tried to explain further that I had been playing with my Wii cos the wife had gone out and left me in alone, and that I thought it may even have affected my eyesight.
Now everyone is just pointing and shaking their heads.

jimmy, i cant believe you're not leading this month with a gain like that !!

I was leading the monthly one bos (by accident) i stopped playing because i just don't have the time right now and then a short that had gone the wrong way went the right way and i was at the top ,then this fellow knocked me off with a 200% gain ,i'm not quite sure how it works ,he's on - 15 k.

I'm back on top my short paid off ,i don't know what happened to the other guy,he vanished .

come on , jimmy. keep yer 'ead and don't balls it up like i did last year. ;)

I might take a bit of catching bos i'm on 75% and i think the nearest is under 30% probably famous last words ,as anything can happen.
