    It was hard work in the studio, recorded a rip off of the "The Kids are alright" which I've renamed "Feeling Alright", sounds gr8 with the Rickenbacker through the tube amp and some got some reasonable sounding vocal harmonies on the chorus, backed up with a fast thumping rythm, could be good in the pub. Second song was a true original, called "Work it out"....has potential me thinks ....added a touch of distortion, starts of with a few "who" like chord changes before the drums come in..and I have the velocity on full, so they're being thumped pretty hard.

    They still need some work but I've released my first single (sent it to a few friends ) I did last week "Aint got a Woman", had some good feedback, has a menacing "batman like" riff in the verse before launching into "Who" style chorus with vocal harmonies and jingly guitar.

    fun fun fun FUN

    I can see at this rate by the end of the Summer I'll be pasty faced spending it locked in my recording studio..........but I don't care...

    Aldi are doing vegetable plug plants. EG 15 cauliflower, 6 chilli, 6 toms or 15 lettuce - £1.99 each.

    I'm not getting the hang of this contractor thing am I?

    Started skyrim last weekend and just made a set of dragon armour. Last night I killed a giant and cut his big toe off and pillaged his dead body - he looked familiar

    Tonight I am taking the tribe to York and am back on the ale - yippee
    Tomorrow we are getting a free tour of the minster from some church bigwig - also yippee

    then the women will go shopping whilst me and my boy get hammered in the cellar - - more yippeee

    Guildies - His fellow guild memebers in game.
    I7 - Type of Intel CPU (see below)
    CPU - Central Processing Unit

    HTH, stick to the kitchen and leave the gaming and technical stuff to the men.



    I don't do pay per month gaming, ala WoW, Old Republic. Co-op BL1 was fun, agreed. Torchlight 2 coming as well.

    Early days on BL2, some small snippets of news but nothing major yet.

    Pre-ordered D3 in 2009 and Play.com priced at £24.99, £34.99 now, good deal.

    Relaxing weekend, may cook some, overclocking my I7, vegetable planning and a little cycling.

    Oooh, and SWTOR and WoW with the Guildies.
