    Very sadly I'm sick off work at the moment with a bad cold.
    I don't suppose that the Wii'll come early care of Amazon? Might make me feel better. Achoo!
    And anyway, I need to have a play to check that it works before it goes under the xmas tree.
    Luckily, for some random reason, I just checked my front door bell and it is not working! So have gaffer taped a "PLEASE KNOCK" sign up!

    I had a confirmed pre-order, but the only game I was waiting for (Super Mario Galaxy) has been pushed right back, and the launch window for that is now given as March - December '07, so I cancelled the pre-order.

    I cancelled my preorder months ago, went for a PC upgrade instead.. seems I can't get another preorder now and a Wii pre-christmas seems unlikely.. so I had to get a 360 to console myself .

    To be honest I don't want it here today, I have an assignment to finish off today so that will leave me most of tomorrow to play it if I get my work all done

    my bro's got one pre-ordered from Toys R Us, I've booked tomorrow off work, so I'll have a good chance of playing it (if I can get my nephew to give me 5 minutes piece and quiet)

    edit: spud1 - good track choice Disturbed's Land of Confusion is a great cover. and the video is awesome if you get a chance to see it.

    I have a feeling that I'm not going to make a recovery by tomorrow

    Bad doorbell is from me putting a rechargable PP3 battery in - doesn't hold much charge - lasts months, rather than years!

    Look out for my mum in the queues tomorrow - she going out to get a a copy of "Wii-Play" and a nanchuk - I hate to think what she'll come back with!
