Yup, another of those random thoughts threads again, with a No-More-Heroes-inspired touch of trickery involved to guide ya in. There's a fair bit for me to talk about this time, with luck it'll be interesting and provoke thought and interest amongst the C3 populace. Or it'll make you point and laugh, it's all good.
Comments: 
- Someone needs to get The Doctor on the line, 'cos time is seriously messed up. We're in November already, the Christmas lights and decorations are going up, and my week off went far too quick for me not to suspect some voodoo involved.
- Still, I made the week interesting. Went to the train station yesterday and just hopped on one going to Cambridge. Wasn't planned, just did it for the hell of it. And boy, what a place! Bikes everywhere! Sat down on a bench to nosh on some cookies I bought for a snack, and threw some crumbs down to a nearby pigeon because I was in a chariatble mood; little bugger jumped onto my knee! Twice! Really should have gotten a pic, but the flash might've made him crap himself so I didn't risk it.
- Hands up, who else got their Tax Return details this week? I did, and turns out I owe the gits a hundred quid. Thieving buggers.
- 6 days until Skyward Sword guys! I'm still on blackout and haven't spoiled anything for myself, so this'll be the most unknown Zelda game I've played yet. Can't wait!
- Started a computer course with a local training agency lately; I'm learning to touch-type! As in, rythmic hand movement over the keyboard instead of the one-finger approach I'm using right now. It's going okay, but very difficult to adjust to.
- Got an appointment next week to see an specialist regarding some personal health suspicions I have. Wish me luck.
- Quick note to Azuardo; I'm keeping an eye out for a copy of TWEWY for ya; even looked when I went to Cambridge yesterday, but no joy thus far.
Is £15 your limit? (just so I know what price to look out for)
- Guess which day New Years Eve falls on this year? He he, party time!
Currently Playing: Begins with P and ends with -ersona.
Currently Watching: Too many Scrubs episodes for me to become mortally afraid of doctors.

OfflineDid you go by yourself to Cambridge? I want to plan a trip myself, maybe to Chester, York or London. I'm just sick of being stuck around here with little to see. Feel like I should be exploring the country a bit more, and seeing some sites, meeting some people. I've asked a mate and his gf to see if we could plan something maybe before Christmas or next year, so with any luck.
No tax return for me, as far as I'm aware, thank god. Sorry about that!
I've done a good job not knowing anything about Zelda SS too. I'm ignoring even the tiniest details people mention about it, so as to avoid getting hyped and expecting like the best game in the world, ever. It's easy to be hyped, and incredibly hard not to be for a series you've been playing your whole life. But I'm surprisingly going into this one completely blank, which should hopefully pay off.
Good luck with the typing course and appointment.
And as for TWEWY, much appreciated. I may have to go over the £15 budget to near £20, but I'm bidding on an auction now for a UK copy, although it ends whilst I'm in work on Monday. Can't see it selling for what I want though. There is a buy it now UK copy for £20, so I might have to go with that. But still gonna keep my eye out for now. Many thanks for keeping yours out too!

If I had known Az' was still looking for a TWEWY copy, I could have taken one last time I went to that toy shop near my place. It was on sale for 6€ . It's not there anymore now.

Got mine for even less than that, two years ago :
That's what happens here when you try to sell to kids a complicated RPG that's not even localized in French : Prices drop

Yeah, went on my own. Generally don't really like doing anything that major on my own, but I felt like trying something new. Am gonna try going somewhere new every time I have a holiday period now, I really enjoyed it.
Let us know how the auction goes, I'll continue to keep a lookout.

Go to York. Cheese lives in York!
And yay, Skyward Sword! My ambition to complete Twilight Princess before skyward sword fell flat on its face, although I did get a little further than the first time I played it!

OfflineI've been to York about 4 times, but mate, I absolutely love it! Last time I went was years ago though, so that's why I wanna go back. Used to get tons of my Christmas games there for dead cheap XD Looks awesome at Christmas time too. Would love to live there.

Well actually I'm wanting to move away ASAP! But that's due to other circumstances, it's a pretty good place to live.
