"Shatpank" I like that word.

Watched the Bo Selecta Volume 3 DVD last night - well, one disc of it.
Pesky Tesco DVD Rental only give one DVD at a time ( Well, they do if you weren't sure whether anything else would be covered by the 14-day free trial, and played it safe. Seems the 2-at-a-time and 3-at-a-time options ARE available for free, so... )

Bloody good making of doco - still done in character, for the most part, but it's on for bloody ages!


What else have I been up to?
Here's some advice - do NOT go to Toys 'R'Us on the 22nd of December.
It's "quite busy".
Still, that's Morgan's Xmas sorted. Got an interactive Jess The Cat ( From Postman Pat). Looks like Ebola, but is probably slightly more intelligent.
Also snagged a Little People zoo set.
So Morgan's Elephant Impressions will be a-plenty come Saturday. Woohoo! ( Or should that be "BrrrrwwwOO!"? )

Got Kat an extra little something in case her main prezzies don't show, and picked up a cheap Transformer for myself.
Laserbeak - Who now transforms into an orange camcorder, and is an Autobot!
Go figure...

Borrowed a shitload of books from my stepdad's sister - She's moving house, and has boxes of stuff at Mum's.
I spotted some Anne Rice in there, and realised that there might be some good stuff, so blagged a largish pile as payment for taking the damn things upstairs!
Memnoch The Devil, The Rock's "biography", some random other horror and SAS / thriller titles. And Chopper's biog. Wee :)

Came home, and played the Half Life 2 demo a bit.
Wow. This is some scary shit - and NOT just because you have to choose between torch and gun this time!
Some headcrabs are poisonous now, and instandlt ytake you to 1 health! You gradually regain it, but FUCK THAT!
Fast-moving zombies, bastard things shinning up drainpipes... I think I'm gonna like the full game!

Gonna hit the sack now... Getting the dishwasher plumbed in tomorrow.
Finally.

Aye, they're in the Demo.
It's the first section in City 17, and "We Don't Go To Ravenholm"...
