On Tuesday 30 December I got a text from a very good friend of mine informing me Shooting Stars was on BBC2! One of my favourite shows of all time! It's a good job he sent that alert because I was playin' COD:MW at the time.

I was sad to learn this was a one-off special of the cult show, starring the legendary Vic Reeves, Bob Mortimer and Matt Lucas.

Overground, underground, underwater, bonus stage - It's all there. Played with merely a man and no musical instruments, the fart-like noises are generated with only his hands. Surely the best party trick ever! I too can make farty noises with my hand but being able play music is incredibly impressive and way beyond my skill level. I wonder if he teaches this skill or is it a closely guarded secret...

Play the whole video and I'm sure you'll be amused, amazed, or like me, both.

Generally I not a lover of skate videos. Possibly because they always include a move where the boarder (?) has a bad time and I wince as a result... some kind of sympathy pain. Especially "gettin' nutted" (I think that's a term...)

This guy is frickin' awesome displaying some pretty crazy stunts for us all to marvel at. I think my friend who sent me link described it as "pushing creative boundaries". and I agree he's certainly doing that

Neat vid - Enjoy

I made this small website recently. Still needs some tweaks but it's ready to be indexed

Well it's been a few days now and I've finished the game :)
Golds everywhere!!

I have still yet to unlock one lightweight player and a small kart. I can only guess this is through getting one, two or however many is maximum stars on ALL the cups. This is seeming a little impossible but I spose I'll get there ;)

I'm quite glad it hasn't finished on all golds actually, like the N64 one (I think I got all golds on double dash but I wasn't a big fan of it so I don't know if I unlocked everything). I still look forward to getting online and having some other people to race against :)

This weekend I've been mostly playing... Mario Kart.

I played it quite a bit when I first bought it, then some other games got in the way and it's been sitting idle for a while.

I had trophies in both 50cc (all gold) and 100cc (2 silver, dammit) and was a bit stuck with 150cc.
I now have trophies in all of 150cc but got a few golds to achieve.

My issue is working out which vehicle is best for each set of tracks and for me generally. I've had some trouble getting used to the bikes but they are certainly superior in some cases.

So yeah I'm too lazy to be taken on such an ambitious project like this at the moment. So i'm going to quit the team sorry guys.

Apparantly there is talk of a Wii 2 already. Source: http://uk.gamespot.com/forums/show_blog_entry.php?topic_id=26524636&sid=...

I just wanted to put it out there. If you have not played this game yet, do so!

There is quite an appeal to building an army and crushing an opposing force!

The Command and Conquer franchise has set, with every release of a new title, the standard of Real Time Stratergy (RTS) games.

Past

As some of you (well one of you) noticed, the site was inaccessible over the weekend. Unfortunately I was away from my computer at a stag do in the country, so I was unable to resolve the situation. My sincere apologies. How any of you went for a couple of days without this wonderful site I'll never know - Hard times indeed :P I still don't know why it went down but the server engineer for this server but he was also in the country! When we got back (15:00) he restarted the web server and all seems well.
