Another Journal Entry

Jun 13, 2005 23:33

Something of a large gap time wise since my last update. Tomorrow and it would have been a month.
Really, the reason is that there has been 0% activity on anything really.
Unbelievably, Katie's profile on MSN has recently been updated to "Long Term Relationship" which could go some way to explain what went wrong...
But let's put this unpleasantness behind us.
I went retro over the weekend and purchased a SNES. The games weren't the best, but Bomberman 1 is on it's way to me now so that's a plus. I will need my brother to bring some back with him on his next visit home.
On a more annoyed note, I bought a very expensive new Home Cinema Kit, which didn't work properally, and so I went to get it repaired. It came back to me a month and a half later being "Repaired", but it lasted an hour before the same problem reoccured. So I took it back saying "OI! Sort this out you fat mess" - I am still waiting on a result. A sweepstake at work on the day it would come back is currently in full swing, but it looks like I am about to lose as I put tomorrow down - and seeing as they've had it for the second time since 27th May, I thought 14th June to be more than enough time.
On a lighter note, some advise: NEVER forget about a prawn mayo sandwich and leave it in a golf bag in the boot of your car. It's moderately unpleasant when you find it.
Ten Pin News now: and it's dissapointing to discover that "Tom 'Inconsistent' James" wouldn't fit into the name fields on the scoreboard. A standard score line for the old man seems to be "Strike, Strike, 1, 2, Strike, 2, Spare, Strike, 1, 0"
I myself managed X X 9 X X X 9 9 9 8 last night, but somehow still haven't made it into that elusive 200+ club - it's only member currently Simon Erith of Basingstoke.
Finally to badminton, and it looks set for me to win my 6th Best of 19 Tournament against Tarren, the scoreline being:
JAY 7 (19) 9 COTTON
A game is currently suspended due to injury of Tarren's part, but he is winning 9-6.
--------------------------------------------
Not long until Wimbledon now, and as last year, summaries of some important game scorelines will be featured here. Again like lasy year, my favourite to win has to be L Hewitt.
--------------------------------------------
Finally for this "Catch Up" entry, a revenge list has been created recently, and here are the top contenders, in no specific order:

AMAZON.CO.UK - Sent me "JESU" which sounded to me like Death Metal, although Martin assures me it's not. I had actually ordered the Back To The Future Soundtrack, which I still haven't received - nearly a month on.

ICTV - The "Fix" on my Home Cinema System wasn't really up to scratch in that they failed to fix it.

BELINDA AT HART LEISURE CENTRE - For being un-necessarily rude to Tarren and I

T-MOBILE - for blocking access to my internet billing account because of incompetence on their helpdesk. They actually fixed this today, but I have been without the service for 9 months.

OASIS DENTAL SURGERY - For charging me £107 for treatment.

BBC ONE - For removing the Balloon, and more recently, replacing the lunchtime Neighbours with "Royal Ascot Live"

I am also very tempted to put Katie on this list aswell for the shabby treatment of myself, but I haven't the heart - at the end of the day she just didn't like me like that...

-------------------------------------------
That's a few things off my chest. There are more I had in mind for "THE LIST" but I can't remember them.

Finally finally, a girl called Hannah at Londis caught my attention last week, and she's top class - although I am 98% sure she's with some guy anyway. Classic in that she struggles with R's in words, and can't say 'Jeremy' properally - cute.
-------------------------------------------
Certainly not for so long
Until Next Time
