A knight in shining armour?

Who cares if it's shining or not!

Come on let's face it, we just want to hear the metal clanging together, sparks flying and tempers fraying.

Get down to one of these Knights' Tournaments and let's see some blood shed.

If it's anything like the re-enactment we saw at Nottingham Castle last year, this will be exhilarating and awe inspiring.

Friday's Feast - a buffet for your brain

Friday's Feast - a buffet for your brain

Appetizer: Name a store or restaurant you no longer visit because of a bad experience you had there.

This has to be a little Indian Restaurant in the Home counties!!
My cousin, his wife and I had been out pub crawling and were a little peckish, well to cut a long story short, there was a dispute with the tip and the place was smashed up. We were attacked with machetes, carving knives and a baseball bat!
There restaurant didn't look to good after, and that night anyway, they never had to bother cleaning the huge front window!

Soup: If you could own any building in existence, which one would you want?

I would want the Vatican. I have a dream, ambition to get into the vaults and make public all the secrets the Church have been hiding for 2000 years!

Salad: What's your favorite commercial these days?

The British commercial for a digital camera printer.. Is it a picture or is it real?

Main Course: When was the last time you felt guilty about spending money, and what was it you purchased?

£20 for a Plymouth Argyle crested Zippo lighter.

Dessert: Friday's Feast is going to be having it's First Birthday in 2 weeks. What should we do to celebrate?

We should all converge on Beverley Hills and see what sort of charitable food and drink donations all these millionaires would offer

I am a Secret Agent

My results for taking The Ultimate Personality test

You're a smart, shrewd loner. Chances are although you prefer solitude; you're a deeply caring person full of energy and ideas. On a personal level, you're sensitive. You may worry too much about how you compare to others, and your mood suffers under such intense personal scrutiny.

You like to eat lunch at your desk. You also have a critical eye that assures your final product is always top rate.

And that's just scratching the surface!

Which Peanuts character are you?

Snoopy
Wishy-Washy: 28%, Mental: 50%, Physical: 71%

Joe Cool...you are the world's favourite beagle! Snoopy is owned by Charlie Brown (although this relationship often works the other way round) and spends his days sleeping on top of the kennel - that is, when he's not eating, writing novels or flying his Sopwith Camel against the Red Baron. Watch out for errant birds and the cat next door.



My test tracked 3 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender: free online dating
free online dating
You scored higher than 16% on wishywashystuff
You scored higher than 0% on brainstuff
You scored higher than 99% on physicalstuff

One day to go.


Well, with one day to go, which way will your vote go?

Unlike me, I hear that thousands of voters are still undecided, so let me take this opportunity to sway you!

We could go for the Tories and their push for


law and order and an honest Government !!!

The Liberal Democrats and

We are not a wasted vote

Our present Government, who's only crime in the past 10 years seem to be for supporting the coalition and the majority of the UN in taking a

stand against Iraq

I suppose there's always the option of the Greens, the BNP, the Monster's, the UKIP or any of the new independant candidates and their parties, but on a serious note

What's for dinner!?

Why bother with profiles?

Well I never!

What a clever idea me thinks, edit my profile, put a few of my interests down and then browse other blogs for similar good tastes as mine...brilliant and so easy. "Wow, I'll soon have hundreds of links with people all over the world, varied interests to stimulate me."

Well, what do I find?

I find that I am way out of fashion, the things I am blogging, were blogged last year!
The people with the same interests as mine, have all been absent without leave, not one has posted since September 2004.

Do I feel special or what?

Oh well, it's back to the same ole places.......
Bored, bored, bored.. com

Which Polyhedral Are You?



I am a d12


Take the quiz at dicepool.com

Tuesday is Chooseday

Be creative, you know you wanna!

Would you rather:

1. Have a mobster cut off your hand, one finger at a time OR a crow peck out your eye?
I would rather have a crow peck out my eye. If I ever have problems with my sight, it will save me a fortune in contact lens'. Being a man, I love to do allsorts with my hands and couldn't be without one.

2. Wear nothing but lace for a month OR nothing but wool for a month? #
I think I would look pretty stupid or just plain pretty if I wore just lace for a month, so I'll take the male alternative, keeps the wife happy, and go with wool.

3. Eat taco sauce on everything OR eat what you want, but drink only whole milk?
Eat Taco sauce on everything. I don't eat breakfast or lunch, so it would be only once a day on a main meal, so I think I could handle that being overweight already, the whole milk would do me in!

4. Be stabbed in the big toe with a rusty nail OR kicked in knee cap 10 times?
If a tiny pet kitten were to be the kicker, then I would go with that. If not, and it's something much bigger, then Tetanus upto date, Rusty nail!

I am just a man!

I have just taken this test and just made it over the threshold as thinking like a man.



Your Brain is 40.00% Female, 60.00% Male



You have a total boy brain

Logical and detailed, you tend to look at the facts

And while your emotions do sway you sometimes...

You never like to get feelings too involved

Patience dear man, patience


Why oh why does this happen?

You know when you have been working all day, washing up, laundry, hoovering, dusting, preparing lunch, making the beds etc,.and then you think to yourself, "It's about time I had a break."

You sit down, sip on a cup of coffee and light a cigarette (fag), log onto your computer and start reading or blogging, then it comes...........

"Daddy, now that you're not busy..............."
"Honey, now that you're not busy..............."

Now, being the most laid back person I know and a very good advert for passive aggressiveness, I get up slowly, rise to the challenge and complete whatever is asked of me.

Once I've made everybody else happy, I return to my chill period!

"Daddy?"
"Honey?"

AAARRRGGGHHH!!! and calm

It's a good job I love my wife and children very much!

Parenting help, if you need it!


Whilst being very vain and searching Google for my blog, I came across this Web site for help and advice on parenting issues.

I hope somebody out there finds this as interesting as I did.
