I got married on Dec 1st 2001. It seems like forever ago thank god.

When loading up NFSU2 the other night I actually had to rub my eyes to make sure I wasn't seeing things when I noticed it was made in 2004.

My HP opitical is that old. 90% of the silver finish has worn off to reveal the clear stuff underneath (the top is painted silver bottom is clear) but it still works as well as the day I got it.

Roland Rat.

It was my childhood nickname due to my buck teeth. It was, however, awesometastic. The other night I sat and thought about the time they went to Kouloon (sic) in Hong Kong in Rat on the road and remembered that silly song.

Quote:
Hong Kong, Kouloon Hong Kong, we love Hong Kong, it's the place to beeeeee


And then I remembered the manky old boat called Resplendant Dawn and then I remembered the time that we went for a holiday on the IOW and found a manky old boat we nicknamed RD before pelting it with that horrid smelling black sand stuff you find at low tide.

Ahh, the memories. :)

80's.

Lots of years ago, too many.

I also miss Super Chicken (the cartoon on before WAC). I would say I miss the Pacman cartoon but I have both seasons on DVD. Excellence.

I did. In my defense though, I do like Bayonetta, Tractors and Holly Willoughby.

Saw Holly on that dancing on ice thing over the weekend, and the big hair she's got at the moment makes her look like a transvestite wearing a very bad wig.

FALSE.
She looked superb on the Friday show, and on All Star Mr & Mrs (when I got into a lot of trouble for knowing that Holly's baby weighed 7lbs 4oz when it was born, and not having a clue how heavy the Grimlet was).
The hair and dress on Sunday didn't work at all, though.
