I think someone is punishing me for talking about women the way I did in my previous post - either that or my luck ran out with all the sport I do.Playing football (soccer to you Yanks) and I wasn't in goal and I managed to break a bone in my hand, work that one out. What's more embarrassing is that I collided with my own player on the field and ended up snapping something.Got a brace on for the

The most complex and beautiful creatures known - women. Just recently I started to get to know a lovely barmaid at a bar I drink at. At first I had no intentions of anything but a simple acquaintance - and my local barmaid, I suppose. Anyway, after weeks and weeks of talking I noticed that she had been spending all her breaks talking to me and making an effort to joke with me over the bar,

After a hard days work, an hour and 15 minutes session down the gym followed by a football match this evening, there's nothing better than just relaxing in a nice comfy chair with some soothing music playing in the background. Coldplay's 'We Never Change' is perfect for this moment.Bliss!

A week into my bodybuilding regime and I've already injured myself, clearly a case of "learn to walk before you can run".I've been pumping weights on my chest, biceps and triceps for over 10 months now and decided I should probably get down the gym to work the rest of my body before it all goes out of proportion. However, it seems I forgot that I've never really pushed my shoulders before, so

According to a recent study, Britain is the fattest country* in Europe with one in four people being obese - the fattest being located in Boston, Lincolnshire (Where I used to live).However, it's not the people of Britain that are at fault for this, it's the Government.

I woke up on Saturday morning feeling a little sombre from the mood I was in the day before. I was a little hung-over but I felt unusually better by around lunch time, so I think it was more of an anti-climax that my 21st birthday had ended.It was a great night though. I started off with 20+ mates in a bar near me. I hadn't planned to get drunk there but it so happens that most of my mates

It seems the only way Microsoft can compete with rival companies these days is to lose a lot of their money. The only way the original Xbox console could compete with the Sony Playstation 2 was by losing money on each sale, something Microsoft have openly admitted.And with Microsoft about to release their portable media player - the Zune - in two months time, they have once again admitted that

After months and months of trying to worm my way into a Football team, I've finally done it and with a bit of luck our season will start next week. I've been granted the number 10 shirt, a number I've had in teams since I was a young lad, so that's put a little smile on my face.I've been playing with the lads since the beginning of summer now, but the actual team hasn't played together properly

I think I'm probably going to be one of those people that will never get married. I'm only 20 so I'm possibly being over-dramatic at the minute and I've not had anywhere near enough experience with the opposite sex on an adult level to even justify my previous comment. However, after my ex and I split up some time ago I've not once had the passion or drive to get back into a relationship

So I recently decided to upgrade my mobile phone on my phone network. I'm not going to name the name of the network.I've been with them for three years and have not once had a problem with them, until last week of course.

Unfortunately for yours truly I've hit a rough patch. Things haven't gone the way they should have in the past couple of weeks and today has proven to be a bit of a low one for me.

I run a Katie Melua forum elsewhere on the internet - so I'll admit that I'm a fan of her music. I'm used to receiving kind gestures from forum goers who appreciated my quick set up of the forum after her official forum was closed through petulant reasons.

It's console makers like Microsoft and Sony who seem determined to stop computer gaming evolving into something else. Rather than innovating ideas, they'd much rather stick to high end graphics, fast game play and well, that's it. I've finally realised why I get bored of computer games so much now and it's because they're all the bloody same. No one seems to want to make anything different these

I don't know much about this, who this guy is or why he is doing what he is doing, but it amazed me enough to make a post about it.I present to you, some guy called Chris BlissThanks my friend at Movie Guff.

I'm a very active person who loves nothing more than to keep fit, my life is revolving around it at the minute, not in an obsessive way, and so I make an effort to eat the right foods and do the right things. But the past week I think I've either failed myself somewhere, or the heat of Summer has hit me more than usual. I've ruled out dehydration due to me drinking water all day long, I've ruled

I was just browsing the internet when I came across this 5 minute video. It's a little hard what to make of it at first, but it is pretty impressive and I suppose one would call it art of some form. It impressed me anyways.I've read that 'The Little Girl Giant', as it is actually called, is a living fairy-tale theatre event and parade called The Sultan's Elephant, involving a giant girl

Tonight, whilst I should be out with friends and family at a cousins moving in/girlfriends birthday party BBQ, I'm stuck in suffering from, I presume, the effects of a lack of iron. For the past 6 months I've been eating healthily-ish, training on a near daily basis and generally looking after myself as best as I can, but one thing I forgot... Iron! Turns out those green leaves known only as Kale

As I said in my previous post, my cousins and I took a trip up London to go and see the new Superman movie. In fact, we ended up going to Thurrock (Lakeside) to the My Vue cinema to watch it - fab location.After an extended play of annoying advertisements and more than enough trailers, the movie began. All those memories of when I was a child, watching the movies with Christopher Reeve came back

I'm a writer, am amateur one at that, but still considering myself a writer. I write for a few websites, one notable though and, unfortunately, I can't give the name of that website away for anonymity reasons. However, I was increasingly bored last night and decided to search for my [real] name in Google and I was surprised by the amount of entries that came up. I came across the obvious articles

Okay, so my first real post is a little tech-savvy for most, but it's still something new to me. I recently acquired a Nokia 6680 3G phone from my cousin after he got an upgrade on a different network. I had never had a video phone before, so the novelty was still something new to me and, thus, couldn't wait to bare my arse to a few mates in a drunken night in (or out). I managed to sway my

...Over 600 days later and I finally give up with Wordpress and make a move to Blogger.com. Why? Well, a good question, afterall, Wordpress is a damn site better than the software on offer here, but it lacks one thing - a network of other blogs. The sheer thought that someone, somewhere, might come along and read this is enough to persuade me to create an account and start blogging.So here I
