Revival of consoles old
Today I dug out the NES and the N64 and have set them up in my room after they’ve had a large number of years sat doing pretty much nothing. I love that nostalgic feeling when you look through your old computer games and think about how good they were. The first games that jumped out at me were Super Mario 64 for the N64 and Parodius for the NES. I’m also looking forward to starting Banjo-Kazooie again, I spent so many hours playing on that it’s not funny.
Well, I’m just about recovered now from a lot of hard labour. On Tuesday I helped lay some concrete floors and was aching a lot after that. Wednesday I helped wheel barrow 18.7 cubic metres of concrete into some foundations, that hurt me big style. Thursday me and Steve moved a large amount of concrete blocks which also hurt very very much. Friday we had a half day because we couldn’t get a delivery of sand and cement until Saturday which also hurt a lot. Despite this whole world of pain that I’ve found myself in over the last week I’m still really enjoying things. It’s good to get some exercise.
Anyone who saw my previous post will know that last weekend myself, Claire and Chris went to watch Casino Royal and my goodness it was brilliant. For anyone who hasn’t seen it or hasn’t been able to justify going, consider this a verbal kick up the backside! It’s really, really, really good. I think at this point I should mention the Happy Feet trailer I’ve been seeing for a while at the cinemas (here), how cool is that!! I love it!!! If anyone has seen this please tell me if it’s good!
I also want to say hello to anyone who subscribes to Planet Freeside as I’ve just been added to it. I’m not sure I can compete with the mighty blogging power of Mr Rob Miles so I’m not even going to try
