My Computer Just Said

My Battery is running low, sometimes they say the darndest things (very true but must make 24 hrs!)

Last Weekend Club (20 hrs!)

//stoppress->photos now posted
After almost 24 hrs I feel an need to update. After getting up at 7am this morning I have had a great time ever since. After a long journey that felt like we could get lost at any moment wwe finally arrived at what looked like ground zero, well random field zero.. Laura's first words went something along the lines of
this is the end of our friendship
Everyone looked ready to kill me, including the other players. However after a briefing it all looked good and after game one everyone was into it a bit, a few more and we were hooked. Far too much happened to list but the best bits in no particular order are:

• Storming with covering fire the village


• Being in the tank! (kind of)


• Running out of ammo and having everyone even random strangers offer bullets instantly


• Seeing everyone love it

Everyone agreed it hurt a little but was more than worth it. A brillian day and didn't cost that much really....

Next up was the curry nearly everyone came (keith had to work). Ate drank and was merry (bargain booze run was largest ever) Was really cool and so glad everyone came. Turns out I cant do champagne (video coming soon from Willy) Then some of us went to Revolution!

In there we all danced like crazy (remembered why love Laura, she'll try anythin, I was so proud of her today, she is great). Had like huge circle dancing with people taking turns, almost entire dance floor joined in. Few drinks back at Laura's then me and Willy came back to watch battle Royale. AND I STAYED UP LONGER! FOR THE FIRST TIME!

Have to mention everyone who made it a cool 20hrs

• Laura


• Lenny


• Kath


• Graham


• Willy


• Jo


• Andy


• Mary


• Emma


• Keith

Oh and some of my favorite quotes:

• Laura: If this was real I'd be alive - after not being shot for 5 games


• Lenny: As soon as I'd done it I realised how entirley inappropriate it was - after farting


• Laura: Can we leave if we don't like it, Marshal: No - During Briefing

I'm sure I shall be reminded about more things as we progress... Everyone have a look and comment please

I'm going paintballing in morning

CANT WAIT! nothing else to say. Sorry...

30 girls & some mistletoe

This is a few days late, call it recovery time. Anyway last week I met up with Laura and two of her teacher friends for a quiet drink. A few shooters later and it was just that, a lot later. We popped in to see Keith DJing and he gave me what turned out to be a god send. The Mistletoe headband!.

After fending of seriously fat female chav who decided I should give her the head band as it made me look queer. I started the challenge for the night, a kiss from 5 women. It took a while to get 5 but this turned out to be a kind of warm up, don't want to pull my pulling muscles...I couldn't think of a better sentence. Anyway from there came ten then 20 and at 28 I was running out of girls in the lounge who hadn't kissed me or at least come up with a good reason why not. Laura went home, she had a posh do the next night but Matthew and Natalie where good company.

Eventually I found my penultimate and then final girl, Elliah. Always finish witha a flourish and Elliah was amazing. If I had more presence of mind (alochol didn't help) then I would have got her to write her number after her name (It was loud).

Finally Lunchin'

I've finally found time to have a bite to eat and whilst scoffing my LUSU Khobez bread mozzarella sandwich I have moved the site to www.bardsleys.co.uk for maximum goodage. Better to be on a server I own especially if I want to use language like "mibple" et al.

It's taken me a good 20 mins to move it and I don't have enough time to give proper detail but I shall soon be writing up "the night of 30". Imaginative title huh!

Mysterious Tie Tuesday

Going well so far. After the launch Party last week it was decided that every tuesday the "mysterious tie tuesday" club dresses smartly for work. Me and Keith have both done well but Matthew and Jon failed totally. It's mysterious because we had a psychic at the launch but tonight I guess we'll have to come up with something else....

Fashion and Culture in Manchester

Had a great time in Manchester this weekend. Sunta was hosting the face of Manchester 2004 so myself, Ben, Fran and Dom went down. The bar wasn't as free as I'd been led to believe but that's not the point. It was a pretty cool show and I got to meet some very pretty girls. In fact I met the female face of manchester herself. Had my photo taken with her and was getting on quite well till I realised she was far too young, 16 years old!

So since pulling was out of the question and Sunta was knackered I did the only sensible thing. I bought a bottle of champagne. Hey it's her first fashion show (she won't be getting one at the next) It was such a nice bottle and picked everyone up I bought another. Total bar tab £100. What a cool night.

The next day we went and did the guardiann tour of manchester's best architecture. That was cool and it's been so great to see Ben and Sunta again. Can't wait to see the photos oh and on the off chance I apologise to anyone in public library when I broke wind. I was quite hungover.

My new desktop

I like my new cat design. I have put it everywhere.

Juicy

Just been to juicy, very good night. Cut short but plan to make the next one big. Very weird though, kinda thinking about assumptions normally I assume everyone (well not everyone) is straight but there the situation was reversed and I get the chance to see how the other side live (by observation and being the 'odd one out')

Really enjoyed it though and can't wait for the next one, it really was attitude free.

Testing the water

This is a very nice feature that's all I can say. I might even add it to
our content management system.

Diaries are easier to setup

Well all mine have been. I just spent ... well look at the post times, getting this working. First I tried on my eclipse webspace but had no luck with that then after a load of attempts I had to move to my own server via sftp (which I now realise works, which is cool!). Admittedly it wasnt bloggers fault and Nessen did crash the server half way through (4 months of uptime!!). Well we're here now, time to try playing with the design ;)

Launch Party

I used to have diaries that stopped after a few days, now with the wonders of new technology and advances in science I have blogs that I stop after a few days. This time hwoever it is going to be different. This time I had a launch party.
