Look what arrived yesterday

Posted by Michael on Friday 5th March, 2010

I got my games! The most important one, NHL 10, after it being out of stock everywhere i finally got it. Thank you to Amazon, who got me the game, and earlier than they originally said :)

I have only tried NHL and Top Spin 3, both of which are good. NHL 10 is sooo good! It is also really hard, which i knew since the goals in hockey are tiny to score in…But it makes the challenge better.

The control system is so hard at first, the buttons are nothing like FIFA, you use the 2 analog sticks for most of the stuff, and the buttons to do different moves; left stick to move, right stick to shoot/tackle; the shooting is cool, you pull back on the stick and move it forward, which is more realistic than pressing a button.

I am probably doing nothing over the weekend…So i will be playing on these :mrgreen:

Found mobile phone sent back :)

Posted by Michael on Friday 5th March, 2010

Hey Hey!

How are you doing on this Friday!?

So, that mobile phone i found a blogged about several days ago…I sent a text to “mummy” which was in the phone stating that i had found her daughters phone and would send it back. She sent me the address to send it back to, and it sent it back yesterday.

How nice am i!? :mrgreen:

And now for some news you dont care about…

Posted by Michael on Thursday 4th March, 2010

Which is…2 more members of the Pussycat dolls have left the group. The ugly redhead left first, and now 2 more, Ashley Roberts (the hot blonde one) and Kimberly Wyatt (the other blonde one) both confirmed that they have left.

That leaves the Pussycat Dolls with only 2 members, both the ugly ones. Jessica Sutta, the good looking one with black hair, also left earlier this year. So now the Pussycat Dolls are not split up but are on “a break”, and claim they will get some new dolls in the group. They are done! PCD go away, you had your fame, you had your hits, now go!

Nicole Scherzinger is shit, she should wake up and realise it! Had a crap attempt at a solo career, and is nothing without the other girls.

And in other music news…..

Mutya Buena (aka Mutley) has applied to the European Trademark Authority to use the name Sugababes. Good luck to her, i doubt she will win.

Spain 2 – 0 France: What a good win!

Posted by Michael on Wednesday 3rd March, 2010

Spain beat France 2-0!!! :mrgreen: What a great victory, and a great performance! Spain played really well, and were in control the whole of the game. I was not nervous at all after the first 5 minutes, Spain had complete control of the game from start to finish.

David Villa scored the first goal, in 20 minutes, a beautiful pass from Iniesta which was meant for Silva but went through to Villa, who had the composure to score. Spain added a 2nd with Sergio Ramos, a great passing move, it always looked like it was going to end up as a goal and would of been a disgrace if it hadnt.

The 2nd half seen some changes throughout the game, Jesus Navas came on…He should be renamed rocket, as he was sooo quick! If Spain need to attack in the future they should play with him and David Silva, i think that would scare teams to death!

France hit the post, but that was about as close as they came, they were 2nd rate but Spain still played well.

I am happy with the game, we beat a good team comfortably, and started without a few players who may start at the world cup.

Casillas
Sergio Ramos
Puyol
Pique
Arbeloa
Sergio Busquets
Xabi Alonso

Evisu Spring/Summer 2010 selection

Posted by Michael on Wednesday 3rd March, 2010

Hey!

So i got a chance to look at the Evisu SS10 line, and i hope they are adding more things, because currently there is little to buy, and a lot of it is not to my taste. A few nice tops, but no nice jeans :(

Here is a small selection what Evisu are offering:

Evisu Paint T Shirt £45 Denim Heros T Shirt £40 To Die For T Shirt £40
Evisu Godhead body £45 Basketball Style Top 1 £60 Basketball Style Top 2 £60

They can be bought online at the Evisu Store by clicking here :)

The first Evisu Print t shirt is actually not part of the SS10 range, but i couldnt find another i liked! I like the “to die for” T Shirt, and the basketball ones…They seem to have no stock of the basketball tops in a Medium, and only have Large or XL :(

They also have a new blog which is a Tumblr here. There old blog was good, but was very out of date and not updated much which was a shame.

I need a new wardrobe

Posted by Michael on Wednesday 3rd March, 2010

Hello,

How are my lovely readers doing? Can you believe it is Wednesday already, time goes so fast!

I have so many clothes, i think i need a new wardrobe. I have bought and bought and bought so much stuff in the past year or 2, without throwing anything away, because most of my stuff is now really good; and since i am buying more and more i wear stuff less and less so it stays in better condition.

My clothes has now spilled over into draws, and also piled up in my wardrobe. I have my good clothing and everyday clothing hanging up, and the stuff i never wear i keep in draws or piled up at the bottom of my wardrobe. Check it out…

In the main pic you will see all my clothes hanging up…Well i say all, you cant really see them, they are squashed up so much! You will also notice the pole is not straight, because its taking too much weight! And if you look even more you will see the holder for the pole is different on each side…Thats because one side snapped it was so heavy! I had to make a new holder :mrgreen:

Here is a pile of t-shirts at the bottom of my wardrobe. There is another pile behind this one just as big! These are t-shirts which i like and still fit, but never wear any more.

A drawer filled with t-shirts and the odd shirt, like you can see in the pic; a blue shirt, i think it was Jack Jones, and my Germany football top from Euro 2008. And above that, you can see a glimpse of some blue D&G boxer shorts, because i have too many in the drawer and it doesnt close! :mrgreen:

Lastly 2 smaller drawers, with…yeah, more t-shirts!! These are mostly older, and bigger, and some dont fit anymore, but i love them and cant chuck them away.

I need more space!! As you can see, i am running out of places to keep my clothes, i also have 2 bins filled with old jeans, which are too expensive to throw away. There are in fact, no more drawers or anything to keep my clothes :(

Another wardrobe would come in handy, or i have thought about selling my old clothes on Ebay or something, but i dont want the hassles of Ebay.

Spain VS France – Vamos!!!!!!!

Posted by Michael on Wednesday 3rd March, 2010

Tonight Spain take on France in the Stade De France, a MASSIVE game! I hate it when Spain play France, too many bad memories….Euro 2000 the Raúl penalty miss :( and 2006 the game where we had no defence and lost 3-1.

But since then we are a new Spain, and have beat France the last time we played in a friendly, and have beaten good teams in big competitions (Euro 2008).

I cant wait to see it! That is IF i can…It is supposed to be on TVEi, but there record for showing games isnt the best. Other channels it is on is Sport Italia (Italy) and TF1 (France).

Spain will be wearing their new away top (blue) i wrote about yesterday; Or so i hear.

The Spain Squad:

Goalkeepers: Iker Casillas (Real Madrid), Pepe Reina (Liverpool), Diego Lopez (Villarreal).

Defenders: Sergio Ramos (Real Madrid), Alvaro Arbeloa (Real Madrid), Joan Capdevila (Villarreal), Carlos Marchena (Valencia), Raul Albiol (Real Madrid), Gerard Pique (Barcelona), Carles Puyol (Barcelona).

Midfielders: Xabi Alonso (Real Madrid), Sergio Busquets (Barcelona), Cesc Fabregas (Arsenal), Andres Iniesta (Barcelona), Xavi (Barcelona), Marcos Senna (Villarreal), Jesus Navas (Sevilla), Juan Mata (Valencia), David Silva (Valencia).

Forwards: Fernando Torres (Liverpool), Daniel Guiza (Fenerbahce), Alvaro Negredo (Sevilla), David Villa (Valencia).

It would be good to see Jesus Nevas get some time, he only has 2 caps; Looking at that squad and knowing some other players, Spain has a very bright future ahead, sooo much better than England! :mrgreen:

My starting 11 from that squad:

Casillas
Sergio Ramos
Puyol
Pique
Capdevila
Senna
Iniesta
Xavi
David Silva
Torres
Villa

What do you think of the game tonight? What is your starting 11?

New Spain Away shirt for 2010 World Cup

Posted by Michael on Tuesday 2nd March, 2010

The new Spain away shirt has been unvailed! It is navy blue, no real shock there, they are always navy or white. Looks really nice, similar to the 3rd top they had a few years back which i have. A nice simple smart shirt. It is a climacool version, i am not sure (yet) if they are doing a techfit version.

You dont need to ask if i will get it, because i will :D

Here is David Villa wearing it.

Spain play against France tomorrow night. Vamos España!!!

Give me my hockey! (no stock of NHL 10 anywhere!)

Posted by Michael on Tuesday 2nd March, 2010

Hey everyone! How are you?

Did you watch any of the winter olympics over the past few weeks? I didnt really, i watched some of the Ice Hockey in the last day or so, and watched the final with USA and Canada, and really got into it!

So i wanna buy some games for my XBOX 360, and i wanna get a few different sports, like The Ashes (cricket), Madden 10 (american football) NBA Live 10, and of course the hockey, NHL 10. I sort of got into the superbowl too when it was on last month :)

I have tried to get NHL 10, and no online place stocks it! I find this a disgrace, its not an old game, only around 6 months old, and nobody has it! OK, fair enough, it might not be the biggest selling game in the UK, but i’d of thought someone would have stock!

I used to play NHL 95 actually, it was quite a fun game :mrgreen:

Check out these stores, probably the 7 biggest online retailers of computer games, none of which has this game, but do carry other crap titles! The price is also a suprise, its £39.99 or there abouts, and you can get the majority of games for £29.99 and some even less.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Update: I also rang Game, who have none in stock in my local store :(
Update 2: I have now placed an order on Amazon, we’ll see how long it takes

Saturday night out

Posted by Michael on Monday 1st March, 2010

Hey!

How did you spend your Saturday night? I was out in Newcastle, and got drunk (of course!). Started off playing 9 ball pool, never played pool for ages, and wasnt really good but still reigned supreme as usual lol :mrgreen:

Went to some bars in Newcastle like Bijoux, Bar 42 Empress and ended up in the O2 accademy which was alright i supposed. They play indie music which i dont like really, but for the first hour or so they were playing a mix of soul which was cool.

Found a girls fone, which i posted about before. When i got home i checked it (as you do) and found lots of interesting things… :mrgreen: Nobody has bothered to text the phone, if they do i will send it back to them, they cant be that bothered about it.

Had the worst chicken kebab meat in the world, which ended up being spat out after each bite, definitely not a good idea to get one of those! I will never go to that takeout again…If you are familiar with Newcastle it is on Westgate road outside the O2 Academy, DONT GO!
