Boredom or Lunacy – It Has To Be One

I’ve also bought an external 2.5″ drive case and a 20 Gig drive for the laptop, a 2Gig iPod type thingy and something else that escapes me 😛 Anyhoo, Rugby Challenge is a hoot – (wait I’ve just remembered, I also bought XP Home for the lappy so it’s legit) where was I oh yeh Rugger Challenge. It’s not often I’ll sit and play a sport based game, usually it’s more a Chaos Theory or Rainbow Six but I like this game, in fact I might go play it some more 🙂

Well There’s A Few More

Well I managed to finish Dylan’s bike and started to weld up the few rust spots on the Rodeo. . . Personally I shouldn’t attempt to weld car steel, I tend to make the holes bigger but I spose I gotta learn, I did manage to get some nice welds on the windscreen pillar from where I ripped the aerial off – I bloody hate them aerials. What else – oh cleaned me shed and got a fright when ‘er indoors was feedin’ the birds in the aviaries – she’s like ooh expletive the birds got out (rainbow lorikeets) so I jog out to have a look n all it was, was three natives hangin round the aviary, all ours were counted for BUT about arf hour later she says one of the Kakariki got out which it had the bugger. Took like an hour of coaxing to get the sod back in the aviary but he won’t leave coz the hen was still in there. we ended up partitioning the aviary and left the door open and he flew in, dozy sod.
Apart from that, we’ve got a touch of rain here and it’s cooler which is good and on that note I’m off to play the HexBox

For those that are interested in what I currently look like, seeing as the pic of me in the gallery is a few years old here is one taken in May this year – and on that note I’ll catchya’s all later.
