Was no great shakes as a dancer and didn't like the sequins on my dress. He was spreading himself around all the girls, practicing schmoozing for his political career I suppose. He was quite the local star, but I wasn't impressed as I'd never heard of him. Just realised that if I had a more soft and cuddly dress, I could have ended up with him. Dodged one there :)
 
Back when I was in Primary school, loads of the schools in my area went to meet Mark Oaten. I never got the honour myself, disappointingly, but needless to say when his scandal came out it was quite funny.

My sister actually wrote to him, complaining about the lack of speed cameras on the main road near where we live. Needless to say, he did **** all about it.

I danced with Neil Kinnock at a University dance. I have lived with that horror for too long....admitting it has at last made me free :)

I danced with the very lovely Mrs Godders:emoticon-0115-inlov at a University dance and fell head over heels in love with her. It amazed me that she actually fell for me as I was far from the best looking of guys but she did and we are still together and as far as I know she isn't trying to poison me so she must still like me.
 
Hmmm, after watching the American Football Show on Channel 4 I'm considering taking an interest in the NFL this year.

Agreed. I had the misfortune to waste 15 minutes looking at it. Where is the art in such drivel..? I watched The Prestige for the second time. Even though I knew it through, it was enjoyable, because it is a thoroughly well made film, well acted, with a good story of misdirection and illusion.

Sometimes I watch a film, and then afterwards, I can't remember anything about it other than how **** it was. This is how I feel about this film. I know it had Jason Stathem and a lot of action, but what actually happened? Nothing worth remembering that's for sure.

I haven't seen Prestige but I will certainly give it a go. My favourite Nolan film is Memento. On the DVD I have, it gives you the option of watching the film with the scenes in reverse (i.e. in the correct order). Totally pointless film when you watch it like that, which just goes to show how clever it really is.
 
I think imma buy an expansion pack for Sims 3 (depending on how much they cost), which one should I go for?

Edit: Actually, having looked at the prices, screw that. I mean seriously, £20 for an expansion pack released 4 bloody years ago? What a joke.

Just seen that some football fans and bloggers are doing a 24 hour live video feed or some such for charity.

They want to raise £3k to fund cancer charities.

Anyway, and here's the relevance, Luke Shaw just donated £1k himself.

Just saw this on Twitter, the lad may be a bit shot away, but he seems to have a heart of gold, good on him.

I can't reccommend the Prestige enough, it's one of my favourite films. All Nolan films are extremely clever and very well made. I can't wait for his next one.

Slightly annoying, I'm not sure how quick first class delivery is, but surely it'll take longer than 2 days?

Don't think so. Mine says one day delivery.

First class delivery is next day, or if ordered late in the day, the day after, if you see what I mean. Weekends screw things up a bit. I buy a lot of stuff via parcel post and the one delivery service that drives me up the wall sometimes is Parcelforce.
 
Mayweather vs Canelo fight tonight, looks like i'll watch it at the pub.Still tired and a lil hungover from last night tho.

Royal Mail won't be much better after a few years of being privatised.
