Do you expect me to talk?

No Mr. Bond, i expect you to click

It's almost the end of the year so i thought i'd better make a new post. I dont know why i don't really blog anymore, i'm on the Internet just as much as i've ever been.

So what have i been up to the last few months....

I got a Wii for Sam about a month ago. It was realy difficult to get, but finally managed to get my hands on one. It was not easy. But i have to tell ya, the Wii is brilliant. So much fun. I tend to think of Nintendo stuff as just for kids. We had a go on Wii Sports though, and it was just so much fun! Bowling is good too. If you've played a Wii you'll know what i mean, and you'll also know how much it hurts your arm the next day! Sam loved it, yeah i gave it to her the day i got it, couldn't keep it until Xmas. Also i bought Guitar Hero 3 for it too. Now that is just amazing!!

We had a really good Xmas, i got Sam lots of stuff she liked. And she got me cool stuff too. We went to the bar Sam used to work at on Xmas day. It was closed to the public, doors locked, just open to us and a few others. Had a great dinner, lots to drink, and a go on the Wii. Great fun when you play with a few people. Then at night we played poker, where i just happened to win most ofthe games, and came away with cash!

2007 has been a good year. My job is still going great. Its just so satisfying doing something that uses my degree, the stuff i learned at uni for 5 years! And the fact that it pays a lot of money is good too. Im a Database Developer, in case i haven't mentioned it before.

2008 is going to be great too i hope. We are going to buy a flat. Theres a good one a few doors down from us and we have a viewing in a couple of days. We'll see how it goes. Depends how big it is, definitely after a big flat. Fed up not having enough space. And we're going to Florida very soon!

Anyways, thats enough for now. Hopefully i wont leave it so long between postings. Have a great New Year everyone!

Ages since i last posted on here, as usual, so its time for another update. I checked my logs, and it seems ive been getting a huge amount of traffic lately even though i've neglected this place. Seems some people have been stealing my bandwidth with an old RadioBlog thing i had. So deleted it. So your music on your site no longer wortks then tough shit. Anyways moving on...Had quite a busy week.

Went to Graze on Thursday. It wanted to take Sam somewhere for a surprise meal since we dont get to spend too many evenings together. Of course since i cant keep a secret i mentioned we were going somewhere and she guessed where straight away. Damn my inability to keep things secret. Wanted to go on Friday really, but it was booked up. The food was brilliant of course, and had a really nice bottle of wine. Cost a fortune, but well worth it.

Saturday we went shopping as usual, spending again! At one point we fancied cake, so we went to the ChoccyWockyDooda bar for the first time. We had this huge cake between us that we just could not finish. Too much! And its really cheap, dont know how they make money really. Saw a cute chocolate westie.

Sunday we went shopping again. Spent more money again. We went to Debenhams and Sam got a make over from the brilliant Roberta . Sam loved it. And looked great. Heres a couple of pics, but the lights dont do it justice.

So what else have i been up to in the months since i last blogged. Hmmm, got myself a good new computer. Cost too much, and its huge. Its all silver. Thats not why i bought it though, hehe, but if it looks good well that just a bonus.Oh i read The Deathy Hallows last week. I was going to go get it at midnight, but i was tired, and i'd been drinking... so midday was fine. Finished it on Sunday afternoon. I had to get it read quickly in case anyone spoiled it. Now im going to refrain from talking about it here in case i spoil it for anyway. I'll save that for tomorrow ;)

Been meaning to get back into blogging for ages, so here it is.

So i've gone back to Blogger. I was with Blogger for years, then tried various other systems. Alas all my years 6 or 7 years worth of comments have gone.

I've been up to lots, might be a long entry. Last weekend we had a weekend in London at a really nice hotel. The Malmaison. We won a competition in empire magazine months ago, along with a case of wine and £100, about 5 months ago. We didn't have time for it until now. We had a brilliant time. The hotel was brilliant. We went to lots of lovely food places/bars and stuff. Spent too much! I miss living in London.

This week has been quite good too. We were invited to the launch of the Brighton festival. It was a showcase of some acts, who were really funny! one act was called the Caeser Twins, who were just amazing. They were, its hard to describe, doing acrobatics and balancing, but just really amazing. Never seen anything like it! The compares of the evening were 'the top French rock and roll and hip hop act'. Needless to say they weren't really French, and were taking the piss. Just a really funny night, followed by a crawl of some bars. (Again spent too much!)

Right im going to quickly cover all my other news before this post gets too big. My temporary job, which i've been doing for 6 months, has now become permanent! Im quite chuffed. Its great to have something i can depend on. Money is still the same, i.e. very good indeed! Im pleased that im finally doing something that involves my degree. It's a good feeling. And of course earning a lot of money is good too. Other news... I can't think. Well it is after 2am. oh i have updated my Flickr, here. Go see.

Another blog from Stephen? Surely not. Im so lazy when it comes to the Internet nowadays. Logging in to Blogger i wasnt sure if i even remembered my password, and if i cant remember my FTP password then you wont even be reading this.

Well its been a while, but then most of my blogs for the past year start with something similar. Im near Ascot at the moment, at Sams uni. Here for a couple of days. Its a bit boring here, but then i suppose thats the point, to get on with studies. Its fucking freezing here, and the heating in Sams room seems to be controlled by a timer elsewhere!!! its annoying having to share a single bed, but ah well.

So what else have i been up to. Usual stuff. Working. There must be some new stuff for me to mention though......Oh yeah. We smashed the shed the other day. Sam had an idea about moving it. Was very difficult as space was limited, and it was an old shed. End result, the bloody thing almost fell apart. It certainly doesnt count as a shed anymore. What fun we will have chopping it up, and we will buy an axe! Cant wait :) A chainsaw would be just perfect, but i couldnt trust myself not to run around with it.

Right thats enough, short and sweet. Ive been listening to a lot of Queen Adreena lately, so for no real reason here is a pic of Katie Jane Garside.
