I was going to start and say I had a really hectic weekend but that might actually be a lie looking over what I actually did….

Spent Saturday going around shops that were too expensive but fun all the same, literally hours wandering round, surprisingly relaxing but the sun was absolutely roasting! Then went to a big manor house and walked around the gardens. Again relaxing but roasting, was nice to do something out and about for once.

Big week presents for myself this week. Have ordered a copy of the board-game Talisman , a copy of Ghostbusters on the 360 from the States, the Reaper expansion for Talisman and some other little bits and bobs. Lucky I like opening packages or it might be depressing.

Also for the first time in 10 years or so started reading a book! Dot Robot written by Jason Bradbury (of Channel 5′s The Gadget Show) and currently really enjoying it, from the first couple of pages I think it has been written to connect with the geek in me and it’s doing a very good job! Hopefully have some better impressions once I get further through the book.

Blood Bowl pre-orders started on Friday, while I find the £39.99 price a little high for a Digital download I will most likely end up buying it, but I will hear a small cry come from my wallet as I do.
