No Formal Training

Yeah, ok, I'll admit it, that was a terrible play on words. Puns are not my cup of tea. Neither is tea. In face my drink of choice is usually a dark, sugar infused drin k that I'm somewhat amazed my mass consumption of hasn't made me a diabetic yet. And I've already looked at some Alternatives . Aside from that drink though, my OTHER drink of choice is Ribena, usually the blackcurrant variety, but when I was in the shops at the time of this video I couldn't find any of that flavour. So I went for the strawberry since it was there and saw these two cordials I'd never tried before. A brand called BottleGreen, one made of pure Elderflower, the other, Elderflower and Strawberry. My curiosity engaged and faced with a choice of a different version of a drink I knew I liked (but hadn't tried this version), and two different versions of a drink I'd never tried, I cut my losses and picked up all three. Yeah, I'm greedy. And I got lucky, all thr...

So what could be better then building a lego plane? Well how about the plane and the transport truck to move it from site to site? And a few little pieces like the mini figs. Those are always good. In fact it would be a bit weird if a lego set like this came without any mini figs. Unless it was supposed to be tied into an Invisible Man set of some sort. Then that would make sense.  Sort of. Maybe. Ok maybe not. But moving onto the set itself, it is rather good, like any number of real world planes, the wings fold up for storage on the transporter and when unfolded it really looks the part. In fact this gives the option to have the wings folded out at different angles so you could have nice variations on the plane general look from this alone. It comes with landing wheels which sadly don't retract but can be easily removed or added back onto as needed. The cockpit sits one mine fig and comes with a "flight computer" brick but no stick to fly it with. The only re...

Hi everyone, as you may or may not know, I've been under the weather due to a nasty bug that's been going around making me cough my lungs up. Well, I'm sick of it and I've been looking for a cure. Have I found it? Ok, so coughing my lungs up might be a bit further from the truth then it really is. It's has been bad, and I've certainly have thrown up, phlegm, bile, actual vomit from my stomach, but not my lungs, not yet, at least. My symptoms have been around over three weeks now, and after a couple of trips to the doctors, apparently there's nothing they can do, it's a virus, it has to go do it's thing for two weeks. I've had it over three, give it more time they said..... Meanwhile I have a dry throat that get's dryer each day, a sense of weakness and a coughing fit that makes everyone in the office look my way with looks of either sympathy or concern for the need of a bio hazard squad being called. Even better the coughing fits can happ...

Ok, so chances are good you've came across this while either looking for spoilers for The Force Awakens, the new Star Wars movie (as if that really needed to be pointed out) or trying desperately to avoid spoilers (both real and fake alike).  Or maybe you were trying to avoid all things Star Wars and found your way here anyhow.  What can I say, the force moves in mysterious ways. (Put down the bit of wall you've just destroyed with your bare hands, there's no need for violence.) That said you might be here for the review I've put up of Rey's Speeder, you know, the Lego toy that's been out for awhile and I just happened to put a review up a couple of days ago, I can't do a movie review yet, simply because I've not seen it. But I might remedy that in the near future. Anyhow I'm supposed to be bloging about the lego toy, not anything else, so allow me to get myself back on track here. Ok, so the toy itself once constructed looks amazingly clo...

This might be worth looking into, after all, there's plenty of accounts of female gamers feeling, well, quite fed up with all kinds of negative attitudes shown towards them in the gamer community.  A lot of "Fake Gamer Girls" comments I've seen tend to be along the lines of general comments about boobs being on display, to the girl somehow being some sort of prostitute, and that last one might not be put across that bluntly , but certainly seems to be implied heavily. We've probably all heard about how girl gamers get sexually harassed by male gamers when they play on line  multi player  and have their headsets on so they can chat to other players. Or the female  cos-player  who goes to comic con dressed as her favourite character and gets accused of being a "fake geek girl" because she's actually in shape or has curves or has something about her body that  the onlooking commentator feels makes her no...

So by now I guess everyone's heard "how much money pewdiepie makes" to be honest does it make any difference? Tomorrow will be the same for me regardless. Knowing what pewdiepie earns makes no difference to that. But lets face it, HE'S EARNED IT!

It's time for a new Let's Play!

Every wondered what kind of character you would be if Dungeons and Dragons was real? No? Neither had I to be honest till I came across this link . :)

Ahhhh, here I am, yet again doing another review, this time, it's Lego. Again. Is there any kind of support group I should be joining?

Hey everyone, got my latest GTA V PC let's play as Franklin ready a little early so I thought I'd share the goodness with you all early :)
