I read that Microsoft will be giving away Flight Simulator for free in the near future. They'll make their money selling additional planes and features.

It's not expensive anyway, Amazon sell it at around £17.
I bought a copy for my birthday last year when I realised it was no longer around the £70 to £80 price bracket.

I bought a joystick from CPC for about £26.

The free demo copy from Microsoft.com lets you fly for about 20 minutes in any case.

Then all one will need is about 250Gb of hard drive space !

I'm using a piece of elastic to get rid of 'bingo wings'.
Is there a male equivalent ?

I spent the most of the day working on a set for my first ever gong show which is going t be in Notts. If anyone wants to come the details are in the blog.

Also wrote some decent new material though I have a bit about a magical giraffe that needs some editing

Just helped a neighbor move his belongings into the new, massive house he built 2 streets away. There was more beer drinking and pizza eating involved than actual labor.

Easter eggs been advertised on the telly in January.

Well, I'm almost at the end of Semester 1.

I have two exams this week which will be the end of the semester.

I'm not nervous - exams are quite exciting! I'm just anxious to do well. One exam is tough - like, mega tough. The other not so much. I'm concerned that I've neglected the revision for the easier one in favour of revising for the tougher one.

Anyway, the tough one is tomorrow AM. I'll do 90 minutes more revising tonight and then, THAT'S IT.

GULP.

...and now the microwave packs up...

When said we deserve a break we didn't mean rendering our electrical equipment useless.

Good luck TB

Spent a really quiet weekend at home alone, apart from working yesterday...have made an orange cake and iced it, came out a bit flatter than I hoped but I blame the damned recipe, tasting will commence when the kids come home...wolla

I just accidentally clicked on a BCG banner ad.

I'm going to email Play.com to tell them it was an accident and that they should withhold the £0.03 referral fee in this instance.

Good luck, TopBanana!

Yes, very good luck!

Good luck TB.
