Oh excellent! That's a very cool job.
He's very happy with it. They have a Golden Axe arcade machine in the staffroom. Plus, they have a tank out on the front lawn.

Do you feel wrong inside, eating Chinese food without chopsticks?
Yes- sometimes I have to cave though, like if I'm eating crispy seaweed. I'm sure that's designed to be impossible to eat with twigs.

HUSHYOURFACE. Newcastle is brilliant. I'm not from Newcastle- I moved here for uni about 6 years ago and never left.

I'll get there. I haven't tried seaweed with the stick since I started using them more regularly- I might be a chopstick wizard by now !

Possibly. Mine works for ubisoft. I have a street named after me in the new driver game !
Geordie Sux Ave?
Blind Engineer Tokenism Boulevard/
Candle Wicks Road?
Actually I'm not sure. I think it's like Wicks Heights or something similar.

I'm going to letter bomb you.
Tell me, Nat, do you have a Geordie accent?
Quote: Ben @ August 11 2010, 12:54 PM BSTTell me, Nat, do you have a Geordie accent?
Not really, I'm not a geordie- I'm an honourary member. I sound Northern, but definitely not geordie.
*writes it down in the Bennery*
I was going to link a YouTube vid of me speaking but then realised that the others on the account are either massively embarassing or indecent, so I have decided against it.
You'll just have to wait until I'm famous on the tellybob.
