For something to read on my way to Bristol I bought PC Zone.
It was the October edition. Unless I'm very much mistaken it's still August!!!
My people call me the dude. I share my teachings in the passages below... (along with many typos, grammatical errors and lazy writing)

Reading 2006
I don't generally believe in fate but decided to take it up on it's offer this weekend.
Firstly I left my coat at John's house so we had to turn back whilst on the way to Yatton train station. That meant I missed my train.
I almost missed another as i'd lost my phone. I thought i'd left it on John's car seat but as the train pulled in I asked the ticket guy and it turned out i'd left it on the counter.
I got my train and then changed at Bristol Temple Meads to get my Paddington train. This was delayed due to strike action of Bridge workers just outside Bristol.
I was half asleep as we were pulling into Reading when I got a text from Shaz.
"Tickets are on sale from towts (spelling?) for £45. Come along!"
I had about 30 seconds to make my mind up...
Not much went through my mide to be honest other that "Aw.... Fuck it! Why not..."
So that's what I did. I legged it off the train and walked towards the Rivermead Centre from Reading Station.
Pretty glad I did it. I had a great laugh.
I only really saw Belle and Sebastian and Bodycount but they were excellent.
I got one of the last trains home and got a cab back to Putney from Paddington. All in all quite an eventful day...

SC Movie Review 6
Nacho Libre
A lowly Mexican friar dreams of becoming a prize fight wrestler to win the heart of the nun he loves and improve the lives of the orphanage he cooks for.
Switch off your mind before going to see it and you will enjoy it. Any scepticism at all and you'll probably hate it. It's worth going to see Jack Black's soon to be oscar winning facial expressions.
IMdb Rating: 5.9 / 10 (A little low, but IMdb's voting is not the greatest. Too many people who like a film give them 10 out of 10, and the same for people who dislike the film give it 1 out of 10)
SC Rating 3 Potatoes

This is the life...
Lloyd's paid for my cab into work this morning. £38 worth!
Becky's not been feeling to great recently, and to top it off she hasn't enjoyed the tube journeys in to work, so Lloyd's is paying for a cab each way for a few days. Chauffeur driven to work eh? Can't be bad.
Ha, ha!

Tonight's events
Tonight I will mostly be drinking free drinks.
We have a development network social tonight with work which will be fun. I will be doing no mingling with strangers just getting drunk with my team in the corner whilst looking anti-social. There's a 8 line scale electric track that we've hired too. So that will be fun.
Unfortunately I can't stay for too long as I have free champagne to drink elsewhere. My mate Tunnah (my dentist) cheekily got married whilst away in Barbados so has to buy my brother and I a few drinks tonight.
Friday I will mostly be shattered...

4-0, what a result
Get in! If only we could play like we did in the first half all the time, and also play against shit opposition all the time.
The second half was pretty boring and I think Greece actually edged it. Certainly for large parts anyway. Lennon looked dangerous on the right when he came on so the second half wasn't entirely bad.
Terry and Cole where awesome. Terry made a handful of great interceptions whilst Cole made some terrific stops on the goal line to secure the clean sheet.
You could almost call Peter Crouch prolific...

Tonight's events
Tonight I will be mostly watching England v's The champions of Europe, i.e. the mighty Greece...
Tim's coming over and I have pizza and beer.
What more could you want on a Wednesday Summer's evening?

Exactly what I thought would happen
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/4790655.stm
The drug was rushed through without the usual rigorous testing.
And all because of the Daily Mail and GMTV. Idiots!
