Halo <3



I could go on, and on about how great I think Halo 3 is. About the excellent campaign that rounds off a legendary trilogy, about the flawless multi player, the insanely genius idea that the forge is but I wanted to actually make a note of the theatre mode. Basically it lets you re-watch entire multi player matches or if you have been playing campaign lets you watch that too and from here you can create your own unique videos or screenshots which you can upload to Bungie's network and share with everyone, web2.0 ppl! Anyway heres two of my efforts, the ease in which the software works is superb.

Insurance Insurance Policy

Ever taken out a loan with payment protection insurance then suddenly realized you wouldn't actually benefit from it? I realise I actually sound like one of those cheap adverts you see on sky in between watching takeshi's castle Anyway if you have you like me and thousands of other people could potentially be in line for some serious payback £. I for one was sold this policy with the assumption if I were to become ill and not be able to work this would protect me but not so as pe-existing medical conditions aren't covered. Facinating stuff then, check it out. Or not. Whatever.

Harmless words you probably still shouldn't use while at an airport #1

Aplomb.

e.g. Wow that plane took off with serious aplomb

could easily be mistaken for

I'm a big fat terrorist with a bomb

Mr Fosters And Mr Incredible


So, that's why I don't have the time to post anymore. I lead a double life as the slightly skinny Mr Incredible who suffers serious red-eye whenever his picture is taken.

Raised By Beavers: Excerpts from the unpublished autobiography of Justin Leigh Shough

I was cruising through Fakenham last night, happily minding my own business when I met what looked like the scene from LOTR: TTT at the battle for Helms Deep. It was in fact just 6 kids, 3 either side of the road with a box full of eggs (and flour probably), I then tried to speed up but it was too late, they swung their orc like arms back at pelted me with eggs. Had I not been in the WR van I possibly may have been slightly aggrieved.
