The cutting Edge...

Well, Easter kinda came early for me this week...

Met Cuddle Bunny on Wednesday and we went out for dinner. We decided to grab some chicken from Nando's but it was a bad call....Cuddle Bunny cannot eat spicy food so she ordered lemon and herb chicken, and got spicy chicken, which kinda ruined it all. I do wonder why it is so difficult to listen and take note of instructions/requests.

After that, she asked me what I wanted for Easter (I don't do Easter Eggs as I am diabetic, people tend to buy me DVDs or CDs or other stuff) and I said to her I'd like a wrestling DVD, and so we went to HMV, and I showed her one DVD (I never got to show her the actual wrestling section, which had a selection!) and she grabbed it and that is my Easter present from her, wow!

So I have a few more DVDs to add to my collection...

• Edge: A Decade Of Decadence - I almost bought this the other day, but Mel got me this, and all I can say is wow cheers hon! I have not watched this as yet, I will be waiting until Mel has said she has eaten all or some of her Easter egg.
• Moulin Rouge - I have been looking out for this in SteelBook for quite a while now, and after watching Watchmen on Tuesday I thought I'd have a look in HMV and see if there was anything that might be of interest...and there it was! Not bad for £7 either.
• John Cena: Word Life - I've been after this for a while now, but was adamant that I would not pay stupid prices for it. Last week on Play.com a PlayTrader was selling it for £5, that was good enough for me! This is a good companion to the My Life DVD set I got last weekend.
• WWE Live In The UK November 2008 - Yup, as you can see this update is mainly wrestling DVDs!! This is a 2DVD set with the episodes of ECW, Raw and SmackDown that were recorded during the WWE November 2008 UK Tour. Some good matches on there, and all good fun.
• TNA: The 50 Greatest Moments - Not really any fights from TNA Wrestling, but some of the highlights of some of the cool things that have happened from the start of TNA until 2006. I wonder if they will do another disc like that in the future?

I'm off to Newbury at the end of the month...well, me and Cuddle Bunny are anyway. Obviously Cuddle Bunny wants to do shopping (as you do) but I want to take some photos of the area, and kinda do a bit of exploring which should be fun. Hopefully I'll be better than when I went Christmas shopping there last year, I was rather unwell and kept throwing up, and rather embarrassingly projectile vomited outside the Woolworths! Hopefully it will be a good day, and of course more on that when it happens.

Before I go, anyone who is a Watchmen fan (and if you are not, why not?) may be interested that there are 2 companion DVDs that will go well with the movie (that I hope will be released in the Summer) and they are The Complete Motion Comic (yes, the animated graphic novel!!), and Tales of The Black Freighter (an animated story within the story). Add this to the Director's Cut of Watchmen that has been confirmed this is all good!

The weekend has been mental!

Whoa, the weekend has been totally nuts! I'm so glad that Sunday is classed as a day of rest!

The meal went well on Friday, again nerves were all over the place. We had a nice Italian meal, and it was good times, good conversation and good company...all good! Hopefully we will be meeting up again this week, maybe we will have a meal...but who knows?

I was supposed to watching Watchmen last night, but a few things got in the way, so I'm going later in the week.

Went to Andover shopping yesterday, got some good bits and bobs, and got 2 good DVDs for my collection (almost 3 but more on that later...) and they were as follows:
John Cena - My Life: Yup, yet another wrestling DVD set for the collection! 3DVDs about Cena, not bad either considering I got in in almost pristine condition from Andover CEX for a tenner!
The Simspons Season 6 In Homer Head Case - Yes!!!! At last! I have been after all the heads for a while, and again while in CEX Andover, I saw this and knew I had to get it, and at £16 for a brilliant condition set it's all good!

CEX did piss me off however, as I saw Season 7 of The Simpsons in the Marge Head case and I bought that at the same time, however for some reason I had a feeling I had to check the cases before I got on the bus home, and man it was a good job that I did as I found both cases were empty! So, I went to CEX and politely asked for the cases to have the discs in (as you do) and after all that they could not find the discs for Season 7 so they had to give me a refund...firstly why did they not check the case when they sold it to me (after all they checked the John Cena set), and secondly, how in the blue Hell did they lose the discs for the boxset? Looks like I'm the hunt for the other 4 Simpsons head sets.

Despite that though there was something that really brightened my day, it was truly the silver lining to the "cloud day".
I was sitting by the River Anton in andover, just basically chilling out and watching the birds on the water when a lady and her son (or I assume her son anyway, you just never know these days) went to one of the nearby benches. The lady handed her son a crust of bread to feed the ducks and geese there, and he lobbed it with all his might at this Canadian Goose, knocking the poor thing over! I'm so glad I didn't have a mouthful of anything, because it would have been all over anyone who passed by me! It was really funny and something I will not forget in a hurry.

Well, I guess I'll be hobbling off to do some bits and bobs...I'm hobbling as my knee has given out again (all good fun, the joys of some muppet trying to run me down several years ago when I was working security at the Vodafone HQ when it was being built..) which is great, as they say pain is a way of your body letting you know you are alive...guess pain is good then.

Well, 'til next time...
