Well got my new tattoo, so here it is :-

Federated Suns Tattoo

I will post a fuller report about getting the Tat later

As those of you who know me in person are aware I like tattoos. Today I will be heading down to my local Tattoo shop to have a new piece of artwork etched into my skin. Read more…

caught this on twitter

Though I hate the eurovision song contest, I really am impressed with this word cloud from all the songs that have won over the years.

Lets guess the most popular word

If you follow me on twitter then you would of seen that last weekend has been quite hectic!

Indeed, not 24 hours after posting New Additions on this site, daughter 1 goes into labour. So after getting only 2 hours sleep that night and going into work on the day shift I get a call at 12:00 GMT to come home and make like a chauffeur.

30 minutes after leaving work in a bit of a state (I try to leave with work van keys in my pocket and my own car keys still in my locker door) I get to Daughter 1′s flat. My arrival was greeted with some relief from all those there, well daughter 1′s boyfriend and her 2 other kids, my wife and her had decided to walk across to the shops to get some food for lunch, apparently it helps with labour!

I am sat here on tenter hooks awaiting the arrival of my third grandchild. With the due date being yesterday (17th Febuary 2010) me and the wife are starting to fret a little whilst still trying to lead a normal life. For instances we are aiming to go out tonight for a meal, but do we want the meal interrupted by a call saying daughter 1 has gone into labour?

Those of you who know me, know that i enjoy playing MMO’s, and I have just started playing EVE Online.

For those of you who have never heard of this game (and I really would like to know where the hell you have been?), it basically is a mining simulation set in space. What it is famous for is the space battles that can and do happen in game not just between half a dozen ships, but for the 30 players per side fleet battles.

Having been playing for 3 weeks now, I have been getting to grips with the intricacies of this game. I have found the handy tools for the PC (EVEmon) and several handy apps for the iphone (Capsuleer and EVE Tracker).

But isn’t mining boring? Well yes and no, yes it gets monotinous but having everyone hanging on voice comms, discusing about whats the best skills for certain ships or ship loadouts, ort just general banter the time passes pretty quickly.

Our little corp currently has just 4 members but we can mine some significant ore and we now have sufficient skills within the corp to refine the ores we mine to more costly minerals used in construction. We have even managed to build a Drake (a Battlecruiser class missile boat of the Caldari navy) The amount of dps is phenominal compared to Cruiser class ships.

So I am flying around still a noob and enjoying some of the features of the game and trying to avoid getting the ship blown up

See you in system

My shift roster has left me the opportunity to watch Superbowl XLIV (thats 44) tonight and I have really enjoyed the game. In fact I think that its probably one of the best Superbowls games I have seen in a long time.

So raise your drink of choice and join me in wishing congratulations to the NEW ORLEANS SAINTS on winning the Superbowl!!!!

Its been a long time coming but its great to see that the saints have managed to not only reach the superbowl for the first time but also win the game!

Yeah, ok, not a new update to an old game, but a friend of mine commisioned a bit of art that combined his favourite subjects, Left 4 Dead and the Cat Girls from Dominion Tank Police.

Have a look at the art and make your opinion

EDIT:- Got the original image for the above pic…. You can see it on the artists Deviant art page

Welcome one and all to my little space on the web. I shall be struggling to blog about the various antics that my family and myself get up to.

To start with how much do you like or dislike snow?

This January has seen the most snow drop on the UK in nearly 30 years! and man what a snow fall.

I was working last tuesday on the night shift, and it took my colleague and I nearly an hour to drive down the M3 and to the top of my road, Well I say top of my road, what I really mean is to the top of the road which my road adjoins. It took me a further 30 minutes to trudge from where I was dropped off  down to my house with snow fallng deep and crisp and even all around me. Read more…
