@Jaz007: Not a problem. Just the moment you said black guy and circus The Cape immediately came to my mind. Well at least you know now why you were confused lol.

Watched a weird film with Keifer Sutherland was a teenage vampire In a town with a fairground in America. It was quite enjoyable. Two lads wanted to track the vampires down and his sister falls in love with a vampire. Girls are daft aren't they?

Sounds a bit like the Lost Boys - one of my all time favourite movies and had a great soundtrack too...

@BAMozzy: Oh god that theme song. A friend of mine became obsessed with it, so I was forced to listen to it ALL THE TIME. Can't stand it now!

@themcnoisy: loved Lost Boys when i was a kid. Maggot rice is the best.

I can see why you would like it as a kid, moving to a new area, cant trust anyone, vampires - but it was a bit camp.

Is the song your talking about were there's a choir of kids "you shall not die" it blurts in with the worst sound mixing during a transition scene when the young kid decides to go vampire hunting. The volume went from relatively quiet to a choir in my front room.

Dose anyone think I am some what annoying?

@andrew20: No. Why?

@andrew20: Hadn't even crossed my mind mate. Why, someone been giving you grief?

So the old Thief games are on sale on Steam. I think I'm gonna get Deadly Shadows. Anyone know how well the first two aged?

@Jaz007: Terribly, get mgs v for a sneaky game. You liked ass creed unity mgs v will literally blow your mind.

@Jaz007: there is a thief demo on the PS store if you want to put yourself off buying it

@kyleforrester87: I'm talking about the old Thief games, not the new one. That one isn't even on my radar lol.

@Jaz007: ah my bad! Can't say then although, since this is off topic, I did notice there is a free deus ex revision mod (reworked graphics, sound etc) launched and square are selling the original game for 99p at the moment I believe. Worth a punt then get the mod, if you ask me!

I don't know what came over me today, but I sorta took a little trip back in time today.

Had a strong urge to look through my oldest issues of Nintendo Power (which are from 2007), then goofed around in Super Mario Galaxy for awhile (I haven't touched the Wii in ages). Pretty fun & relaxing afternoon.

Thought I'd do a little update for those that might be interested, @themcnoisy @kyleforrester87 @get2sammyb @Hego and anyone else that wants to know!

Sponsored sobriety is going damn well. Still not easy, but I hit the half way point tomorrow! I've added a new element to the challenge, which is that I'll be completing the Nuts Challenge in March, to really put the physical effects of not drinking to the test. Never done anything like it before so that should be...interesting.

Also exciting is that the PR folks at the charity are going to be putting a press release out to local news outlets, so with any luck I could get into the local papers/radio!

And the best part of all? After adding all the offline sponsors to the total yesterday, the initial target of £1,000 has been reached, and overall sponsors now stand at £1,145 (plus gift aid)!! So happy with this, especially as I'm only just half way

@SteveButler2210: Well done. Its great when you hit your target!!! You then see the total rising and get a buzz. Good look with the assault course, as an ex member of the RN Its tougher than it looks.

@SteveButler2210: Congrats! Must be great to kniw that you've hit your mark before your even halfway through, everything fro now on is just a super bonus best of luck with the Nuts Challenge!

@SteveButler2210: Wow - well done! Pretty impressive you've hit the target already.

Got the biggy that is Christmas & New Year coming!!
