The Magic Formula...

This is my first post in a while and I'll be completely honest about what I've mainly been doing instead. Playing Formula One 2005 online. It really is awesome and the voice comms mean that I now have a regular bunch of people to race against and we have some great battles. One refreshing thing is that this is an F1 game where I can sometimes win, and if not that then I'm usually somewhere in the top 5. I would urge you to go to http://www.playstation.co.uk to find out more.

Today we saw what I will cautiously call the first terrorist attacks on London since the Iraq war. I could probably say lots of things on the subject but I'd imagine they have all been said before. Yes, it is clearly Tony and Bushy's faults and yes it is also ammunition for Bush to advance into wherever else he decides the 'terr-rists' are hiding now. It does amuse me (in a dark sort of way) that Bush talks about the "contrast" between those who have a love for liberty in their hearts (or words to that effect) and those who want to kill - my opinion being that, in the context, someone needs to buy George a new dictionary so he can look up 'contrast' (and perhaps 'wanker' if he has the time).

I'm back home now, searching for a job. I'll be doing some running at Party in the Park in about a weeks time. Sounds relatively straightforward. It's the Living TV coverage, which is being hosted by the improbably camp Big Brother 2 winner Brian Dowling and some chick called Nikki Sanderson. It'll be good to get a bit of moolah to keep me ticking over. It is looking increasingly like I'll need to go to Network and do some more temping; I don't like the work, but it offers a degree of freedom in terms of going on holiday and weekend events like the GP etc.

This weekend I have my old friend Tim's 21st in Manc and then my aunt's 50th in Sheffield, plus it's the British GP, so it's busy, busy, busy.

Currently impressed by: Formula One 2005 for PS2.
Currently non-plussed by: Getting a job.
Current urge: To suddenly come into an awful lot of money.
