    I play guitar, that was a damn good idea

    Unfortunately, I dont have Sky. I have Virgin Media. Which means I have to wait for the release on DVD

    I have a lovely little dog, but unfortunately she is recovering from a Patella operation, so no walkies for another 2 weeks

    Thanks for the ideas guys, I think with the weather being so poor tonight it starts to get to you. I decided to have a dabble on the Xbox 360 to keep me occupied. I am also now told I have a few things to sell on the forums, so methinks its camera time

    Thanks again!

    Main things I tend to do are as follows ;

    MSN - tartin' with the masses.
    Check various websites for new unreleased mixes, live sets and stuff like that.
    Listen to music loudly
    Mess about with the camera
    Tell random people that I'M NOT AT WORK so I cannot check things as I've no Remote Access (you'll be suprised at the amount of these I get)

    Or I get off me bum - walk to my mates about 10 minutes walk away and generally chill at his until the early hours.

    Yeah I just get bored when I get home, feel a bit deflated after a busy day and always feel that I should be doing something. Never sit down and relax LOL

    I think the weather made me miserable last night!
