Curator of the Burnout Museum

Just over a week ago Criterion Games tweeted that they were selling a signed & framed Burnout 3 poster on Ebay, the starting bid was £99 with all proceeds going to charity (not sure which one, I will have to find out).

Playing Burnout 1

This is an ongoing blog, if i can keep going with it, but i'm going to give Burnout 1 a go I have already played the first champion ship, came 2nd over all I think could be wrong but it was fun'ish and definately made my hands sweat, which could mean i'm trying very hard to win or I have a long term illness. And since I played it only for a little while in the day, because would rather play Burnout 2, I thought time to give history a replay.  The date on the front said 1998-2002, so a serious flash back people, lol.

Should Xbox Live be a Democracy?

I am still reeling from the decision that MS have taken to discontinue Xbox Live for original Xbox and original Xbox games. I just listened to the latest Major Nelson podcast HERE where the decision is discussed briefly.

Both e and Stepto who recorded the show sound upset by the decision, and more upset that they are unable to tell us the reasons for it... what cool stuff is coming thanks to the closedown, due to an NDA.

Kicking

Hello once again. This month, I have had to remove some people from my clan that did not participate in anything. Now, since I had a total of 30 people in my clan, I was forced to kick 8 of them for lack of communication ( not playing with us at all ) 🙁. This left me with 22 people. I was able to recruit 5 more people this month, but I still need 3 more. If you would like to join, message me over the 360🎮 or send me an email. Either way works. I have also had an opportunity to get the clan even more organized than before.🤓I even had one badmouth that I had to kick. Still looking forward to recruiting new people.😃

Win or Lose, it's always the same

Gotta consider myself having been very lucky for the last year or so, despite losing a good job to an insolvent business – I ended up back here with greater responsibility and more hardship than previously, which is nice, better to be busy and cold – can’t concentrate in heat - than dead and sweating...!  And I’m here on a Sunday, working to make up for 11 days I missed in January because of the snow and ice.  Grateful to my boss for not having me lose holiday time and let me fill in when I can or work from home but bit fed up of working 8 days a week, want to curl up in a ball & snooze like I did last week during lunch in a back room on a huge exec chair! No it’s not professional but it’s my party and I’ll zzzzz if I want to lol

The Best Baby in the Universe!

I really believe that our Baby Girl is the Best Baby in the Universe! (although now I am writing this, things will probably change!!)

I was reading some other parents routines online, and my gosh they have full days!! I feel so lucky to have a baby that goes to bed without a lot of fuss by about 8pm, gets up to be fed once in the night (sometimes twice), then gets up in the morning at about 8am, has 2 long naps in the day, one around 11am and one around 4pm, then just plays or sits with me or by herself for the rest of the time. She loves her baby bouncer. She also loves her bath time with her Daddy! She hardly ever screams or cries, and I love hearing her giggle!

Criterion Games seemingly random movie quote tweets!

CG have baffled me the last few days with seemingly random movie quote tweets, here is what they have tweeted so far;

The first movie quote (AFAIK) was: "It's called ICE and it gets a little slick"  from True Lies, as this was when the UK was suffering from a big freeze, I assume it was to do with the weather... but it was followed by these quotes;
