40 is the new 20!

First Take that re-formed, then Brett Farve decided he wanted to un-retire, Lance Armstrong followed suit and now the german speed-meister Micheal Schumacher has decided to re-join the F1 ranks.

Now all the above had acheived certain amunts of success but is it worth it? I'm not so sure...

Waxing Lyrical

Rules: put your music on shuffle, write the first line from the first 30 songs that play, see how many people can guess the SONG and ARTIST.

Feel free to google - but have a go first! Some are really obscure!
_________________________________________________________________

1) The disease of my soul was spreading. Eating me up from the inside

2) Hey, girl, stop what you're doin' Hey, girl, you'll drive me to ruin

3) Just because I'm lazy, doesn't mean I'm lost

4) Oh no, I didn't mean to say what i did say, about lovers and how they should lay

5) D'you fancy a drink, just the one, to clear your head, we won't be long

6) You know I feel there's something 'bout to break now, you know I feel there's a city here to take now

7) People [are] talkin like it's the end of time, I look up to the heavens for a sign

8) Why do I listen to sad songs? Make me feel good when I've done wrong

9) (easy) Welcome to the Jungle, we got fun 'n' games!

10) Thought that I was all alone, broken and afraid, but you were there with me,

11) I'm a son of a good man, I'm the child of an angel, I'm the brother of a wild one,

12) Brain fried tonight through misuse Through misuse, through misuse

13) Step one, you say, We need to talk He walks, you say, Sit down, it's just a talk

14) Psychic spies from China Try to steal your mind's elation

15) High, higher than the sun You shoot me from a gun

16) I don't wanna watch the street or TV, I don't wanna hear about your day

17) It's raining again, I'm hearing its pitter patter down.

18) Wind me up, put me down, start me off and watch me go.

19) Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry You don't know how lovely you are

20) Pretty if the sun won’t shine I’ll be coming out to meet you I’ll be there to make you mine

Some easy, some hard - let me know what you think they are!

2 Blogs in 2 days...you lucky people!

1 Month to go! And with most things sorted it's starting to get exciting!

Next on the list is sorting out who sits where. Now this is a very complex procedure of trying to figure out who might get on and trying not to isolate individuals on a table where they don't know anyone. Easy you say? Nope.
Now add that some people definitely won't get on. Then limit the numbers to 10 per table, sprinkle in the idea of people mingling and not sitting in their natural groups and you get a great head-ache recipe!
So If you're coming to the wedding (and the meal) you might end up sitting next to a complete stranger. Don't worry though we're only inviting nice people :)

Apologies for the break in transmission

Ok yes I'm cr#p.
Having been chastised over the poker table recently I have come to the realisation that my blog has become somewhat under-used...

The main culprit of this failure is my own lack of interest in my life. Thus having nothing to say for long periods of time. I know that having nothing to say is no barrier to the die-hard, I've-got-to-say-something, bloggers. However, I can't even seem to find nothing to say - I have passed into the realm beyond nothing-to-say to some kind of negative-blog (anti-blog?). Which theoretically means that as I type someone else's blog-post is slowly being deleted.
If it's yours I apologise.

FYI - it's 1 month and 1 day to my wedding. Most things are sorted out now. Just tying up loose ends.
Due South Youth Camp starts on Saturday. Fun, fun,fun!
