So I’ve been pretty quiet recently and off the radar. Their are a few reason for this, one and the biggest is that on Wednesday 31st of October my Granddad passed away in hospital. It’s sad but at the same time I’m kind of happy, he had made it to the mighty fine age of 93. But his quality of life was so low that I’m pleased he is at peace now. I wont go to much into this as I’ve always tried to keep emo crap off my blog. But it’s kind of funny, i was at his side when he died. I’ve never seen anyone die before, I’m sure I’ve seen dead bodies when I’ve been in hospitals before but to actual see someone go from living too…well not, is something very different. It’s left me with a very uneasy feeling.
So what else is going on, well I’m starting a new site. It’s game modification related, the idea is still in it’s infancy but I’ll keep you update on my progress here. I’ve also started building my new gaming rig, got everything stacked up in boxes behind me. Just waiting on the RAM and CPU to turn up then it’s all systems go for Crysis. I’m rather glad a lot of good games are coming out over the next few months. I need to keep my ass in doors and away from pubs…or at least buying rounds :P.
I’m recently been playing Zelda on the DS. I have to admit it’s fantastically good. I’ll drop a full review here about it when I’ve finished. I also managed to trade in all my old PS2 and XBOX games at GAME. I got about 86 quid for it all which will help fill the hole in my wallet :). I’m going to start running again as well…I’ve stopped a few months ago because there was so much going on. But now I’m a little less stressed out I’m going to carry on running and dust off the old punch bag in the garage :).
Oh one more thing, CoD4 this week ;). Make sure you check out some of the Halloween videos that have been put up.

That sucks Mac, at least he won’t suffer anymore and that’s a positive thing.
How exactly is this site you are starting up ? Are you just going to write reviews or are you even hosting mods ? Anyways, sounds pretty cool and I can’t wait to hear about it

Sorry to hear about your grandpa.
It’s better that he’s not in any pain or suffering. We lost my great gran this summer and as you said, it’s better this way. Luv, me!
