I cant believe that its been over 3 months since my last post..............sheesh time flies. Well in that time we have lost another family member. My late dads wife passed away recently and although in the beginning we didnt really get on with each other by the end we were definitely friends and she will be deeply missed.
Family wise not a lot has happened. My sister is still looking for a new house to move to. My mum has settled into her new flat and is loving living in Blackpool. My time has been taken up with gaming, watching tv and oh erm....................planning a wedding yeyyyyyyyyyyyy
We are definitely getting there and the plans are coming together nicely. We have made a couple of stipulations and if people dont like them.........tough LOL
We have decided that we want it to be a child free day. No one under 18 (this will cause some problems) but its a matter of practicality. We need to arrange the catering and to do that with children included will times the amount by 1 and a half and we would rather put that extra money towards the day itself and not on a pile of food that will get wasted. The other thing is we want the adults to be able to relax and enjoy the day without having to keep checking on their kids every five minutes to see if they are misbehaving, sick, bored etc.........
Anyway its our day so why should we compromise ???
Me and Deb will have been together almost 14 years next year and we have been through a lot. We have been broke to the point of no return and come through it. There have been health scares (particularly me last year) where it didnt even look like i was going to be here. So i think we deserve to have the wedding that we both want.
A lot more will be sorted in the next few weeks and i will keep regular updates for those that are interested.
Well in the last three months i have played Dead Island and Riptide, Darksiders 2 and am now on Bioshock Infinite. Out of the games so far i would rate Bioshock 3 stars, Darksiders 4 stars and Dead Island 4 1/2 Stars. All three have their good points and they are all worth playing. Dead Island is sort of Rpg with first person as well. Darksiders is a hack and slash but also with a Rpg sytem of advancement and bioshock is a sort of adventure/first person action game. Will let you know what i play after.
On the film front i have watched literally dozens in the last three months, from Dark Skies to Last Exorcism 2, from Stranded to Chernobyl Diaries and from The Firm (not the Tom Cruise one) to Black Swan. A varied choice of films you must agree and there are even more on the agenda too.
I have finally succumbed and joined Twitter (my best friend is over the moon at the news and has already recommended me to her cronies lol). I actually joined by accident while signing up to be notified of upcoming Lionsgate films. I thought i was signing up for a newsletter, I was wrong.
Also during the day I have been listening to a lot of music and my personal favourites are Delta Machine by Depeche Mode and Euphoric Clubland. Delta Machine is a superb cd and its Mode at their best. The cd contains a nice diverse choice of tunes from the mood songs to dance hits. Euphoric Clubland is my kind of music. While i am not a fan of hardcore music i do like the more melodic euphoria or trance tunes and this compilation has the best of the last twenty years. Some superb tunes from Darude, Fragma, Tiesto, Paul Van Dyk etc............ Well worth a listen !!!!!!!!!!!
On the football front I was quite pleased with the way my beloved Liverpool finished the season with a nice unbeaten run and also happy that despite being without Luis Suarez (bite meeeeeeee) that we actually can still score goals and a lot more than people thought. I think Sturridge is a class player and the way that he has filled in for Suarez is a credit to the player. 10 goals in 14 matches is not a bad return so far and long may it continue. Coutinho is a world class player and at Liverpool i can see him going from strength to strength. Downing and Henderson have really improved in the second half of the season but whether they stay, who knows. I think we do need some more quality in the team and what with all the rumours in the press i am surprised that we have any team left for next year............lol. One thing i will add that is driving me nuts is to do with Suarez. Yes he is a class player of that there is no doubt, but he isnt bigger than the club. If he wants to leave, then leave, if he wants to stay, stay, but please sort it out one way or the other. Every day there are new stories about it and its getting a little tedious now.
