The day two sheeps attacked me…

By Tasmin.

Dear all, this is my first ever post! I don’t normally do this but Darren is too busy in dreamland after falling drunk at his first ever Funday event at our workplace. Funday is a day set aside for employee’s to bring their families and relatives to a fun fair event organised by yours truly. There’s food, rides, drinks etc available and everyone generally has a lovely time! :)

My Super Ex-Girlfriend

Hell hath no fury then a woman scorned

This weekend, Taz chose a film that we could go and watch as I was too tired to bother. My hopes of seeing the Miami Vice remake were dashed when I saw the tickets bearing My Super Ex-Girlfriend on them. I feared beforehand that we’d be going to see this though. You’re not going to get much of a review from me because this film was frankly crap! I did fall asleep while watching this as I was tired, but aside from that I just couldn’t believe Uma Thurman could sign up for something this poor. Dearest Taz, next time I choose the film :)

So, to recap, Luke Wilson who plays Matt meets Uma Thurman who is Jenny and all is going well in their relationship. When Jenny lets Matt in on her secret he’s ecstatic as he gets to join the Mile High Club without having to board a plane… He decides that dating Jenny and a super hero will just not work. Big Mistake! She goes all bunny-boiler on him and makes his life a misery as a result. He then turns to G-Girls sworn enemy Professor Bedlam played by Eddie Izzard to get rid of her… – hopefully off our screens forever.

James Morrison – Undiscovered is finally out!

One of the most talented artists to emerge from the UK since Richard Ashcroft

James Morrison has to be one of the UK’s most promising artists in a long time. His incredible blend of blues, soul and alternative rock is mesmerizing. At just 21, he has an extremely promising career ahead of him too. Absorbing influence from greats such as Cat Stevens, Otis Reading and Van Morrison, his debut album Undiscovered shows off the many years of work he has spent on this album.

Undiscovered landed on my doorstep this morning while I was at work of all things! :( I rushed home today, ripped open the packaging and flung the cd into my Xbox 360. Ah, sheer bliss it was I tell ya! You can catch two tracks from the album right now on Uk radio – "You give me something", and "Undiscovered". This is what British music is about, none of that manufactured garbage. You can find him also on Myspace.com

I’m still here!

No I’ve not died…

I’m still around and haven’t forgotten this blog at all. With summertime being a complete scorcher over here I decided to take a break and spend more time with some close friends instead of gaming, blogging etc. Last Sunday 30th myself and my parents went up north to Leicester for the first time in ages to see who I would consider as the only true family we have in the UK. There are five sisters up there who I miss terribly and haven’t seen in just over a year. I can’t even explain how good it was to see them as well as their parents once again – to the point where I didn’t want to leave the place. What’s even worse is that I want to go back there…right now.
