So Bristol was awesome, despite the amazing expense that it turned out to be. I wasnt too bad with the actual convention spending this time around, but the train ticket and accomodation killed my wallet. Next time I'll be a bit more organised so it's cheaper.

Friday

Arrived into Bristol after a somewhat annoying train journey. It went without a hitch for the most part,...

Ok, so it didnt take long for me to fall completely out of routine with this thing.

Things I has learned recently

Iron Man 2, while slightly less action-packed than the adverts and trailers might suggest, is stupidly entertaining. I loved the hell out of everyone's performances, especially Sam Rockwell, and almost surprised myself in how little I caught myself thinking "Blow something up, already!"...

Depends. Do you think it's a good thing you don't know who you'll dressed as on our wedding night? tongue

Hope you are having an ace time at the comic convention - can't wait to the pictures of the sketches you and leo got.

Those of you who know me especially well in real life will know that this next section is very similar to something somebody we know has posted on Facebook in his blogs. These include nonsense like "cool person of the week" and baffling comments about how womankind is just plain evil. I might make this some kind of regular thing, perhaps as a footnote on...

Sadly some f***ers are just too tight to pay for the cloakroom.... *sighs*

As well as all of that, those stupid bags take a good 5 - 10 minutes to be searched by the door staff.

First they have to open the bloody thing which will undoubtedly have a dodgy zip which keeps getting caught, then they have to pull out the massive over-sized hoodie with a band name printed on the front that no one recognises, then they have to go through the shrapnel of keys, deoderant, cash, pens, scraps of paper, tangled headphone cables and anything else which lurks at the bottom of the bag, then they have to confiscate the half full bottle of water tucked in the side pocket as they want the scummy bag carrier to only drink liquids that they've purchased at the venue, then... THEN they let everyone else in.

Make the twat stand at the side and wait, instead of making the rest of us wait outside in the pissing rain!

Christ that was a ridiculous week. I fell out of routine pretty fucking quickly as soon as I had something better to do, it seems. I'm a fickle bastard really.

Tuesday

Went to Manchester to see Strung Out. Foolishly had just a t-shirt knowing I'd probably sweat to death inside the venue so the trip from car to club was especially cold. I'm a fairy...

I've managed to confuse myself greatly with how much I loved "How To Train Your Dragon"

Dreamworks don't have a fantastic track record when it comes to CGI animation. Although I quite like Shrek and Kung-Fu Panda, I can't help but be cynical about Shark Tale or Madagascar, the latter of which was basically "Small animals sing Reel 2 Reel" The fact that theyre horrendously...

People keep teling me this is really good! Think I might just have to see it!

I like to pretend that Shark Tale and Madagascar were never made by them.

I've been a massively lazy shit lately. Middle of last year I was actually putting a bit of effort into trying to keep at least vaguely healthy. I still ate shit because of my sweet tooth and love of all foods yummy but fatty, but at the very least I was getting exercise.

Then eventually my 3 visits to the gym every week turned into...

Kickboxing is like one of the best workouts I've had anyway so if you're doing that a couple of times a week I think you'll notice a huge difference in your fitness!
sticks:
Hope it goes well, I usually stick with exercise for about a week before giving up, so console yourself with the fact that you're doing better than this fat git.

I am getting a punchbag soon though. Exercise + stress relief! Again, for about a week, probably.

I think i may have missed the point slightly with Eddie Izzard's ridiculously impressive feat of running 43 marathons in 51 days. BBC3 showed something earlier on and what started off as something just on in the background became something I was quite engrossed in.

Obviously the show needed a bit of drama, so there was constant narration about how Eddie just might not manage...
