Who is that Fat Bloke?

My Photo
I came forth from the shadows to eat Cheetos, drink Mountain Dew and complain about the buses where I live.

I reside in Yam Towers, with various movies and music...and a pet rock called Rocky.

Lord Likely's Audio Adventure

I look outside and I see that it's another dreary rainy day...great for me as I love it, but there are some of you out there, so I thought that this might be of interest for some of you, and audio adventure to listen to!


For those who do not know who Lord Likely is a funny character who is quite the ladies man, and his astonishing adventures can be found on his website which are really entertaining read!


And now, there is an audio adventure for fans to listen to!  Part 1 of  ‘The Filching Fog of Finsbury Park' is up on the website now, and can be downloaded directly from the website..


The year is 1890, and a spate of muggings has hit London town. But these are no ordinary muggings, for the victims swear that they were actually mugged by...the fog itself!

Can it be true? Has London's fog taken to robbing the citizens? Only one man can solve this mystery, but sadly Sherlock Holmes is unavailable. Instead, it is up to drunken, lecherous aristocrat Lord Likely to attempt to save the day...

I've had a listen and I love it and cannot wait for the second part (out Monday) so have a listen and enjoy!

Live in UK and want US Snacks and Sodas?

You do?  Me too!  I love Mountain Dew but the UK version that is now available is pretty much rubbish, and they only have one flavour too (I really like Code Red!!) so I have been looking around for a good place to get my soda fix...

I have found a really good place where I can order various American soda, snacks and groceries (including my favourites Mountain Dew, Cheetos and Oreos!!) and if you order them by 1500GMT you can get the delivery sent to you the next day...how cool is that??

They have all sorts of American things there...sodas, powdered drinks, cereals, pie fillings, and even ziploc bags!

So head on over to American Soda and fill yer boots...check out their website on http://www.americansoda.co.uk and also follow them on Twitter or Facebook....you can also call them up on +44 (0) 161 359 3655 or email them on info@americansoda.co.uk...trust me, you won't regret being a customer and you will go back for more!!!

Oh, and here is a picture of my latest order from them, thanks to them I have my Dew fix and all is right with the World...until I need to get a bus!!

Dieting Ladies, Please Read...

Ladies, I know many of you out there who are constantly on a diet, whether you actually need to be or not.  I thought that the following image might be something you need to see...
















Ladies (and even gentlemen who feel they are constantly needing to lose weight, there are some out there!!) remember no matter what your weight/size, you are loved..

The Nerd? Geek? or Dork? Test

Well, I took this test and got the following result...


Your result for The Nerd? Geek? or Dork? Test ...

Outcast Genius

52 % Nerd, 91% Geek, 74% Dork
For The Record:
A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.
A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.
A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.
You scored better than half in all three, earning you the title of: 
Outcast Genius.
Outcast geniuses usually are bright enough to understand what society wants of them, and they just don't care! They are highly intelligent and passionate about the things they know are *truly* important in the world. Typically, this does not include sports, cars or make-up, but it can on occassion (and if it does then they know more than all of their friends combined in that subject).
Outcast geniuses can be very lonely, due to their being outcast from most normal groups and too smart for the room among many other types of dorks and geeks, but they can also be the types to eventually rule the world, ala Bill Gates, the prototypical Outcast Genius. 
So there you go folks, I am apparently an outcast genius, and in theory Bill Gates should be my idol!!  Somehow I just don't think this is me (yes, I know these quizzes are just a bit of fun before you say it!!) but I'm sure many of you would beg to differ on that!!
If you want to try the test youself CLICK HERE and let me know what your results are!!

What Is My Passion?

I feel a touch daft...

I was asked recently by a good friend "what is my passion?" and even thinking about it now, it is a question that I am unable to answer...there are things, I like...there are things that I have great enthusiasm for, but what exaclty do I have a passion for?

I used to have a passion for The Turds, I put my heart and soul into the brand, but it didn't exactly end great, I still have most of my collection too...but I look at then and think they are cool, but that's about it really..

I like listening to movies, like watching Horror movies, collected a few animated movies and shows, I am a fan of Batman and several other comic books, have a keen interest in technology, I listen to a lot of different music, collect Transformers toys, and have the radio series/tv series/movies/books of The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy....but because I like them, does that make them my passion?

What are your thoughts...what is my passion?
