Not been out much but the other week we went clubbing in glitzy bar/club Stanza (not sure it was glitzy). It was a good night drank quite a bit.
Last week I upgraded to a Vario IV on T-mobile which is also known as the HTC touch Pro. Anyway i hated it so i sent it back. Just felt it took ages to do everything . So anyway I will be getting a Blackberry Curve 8900.
Friday night I went to see Slumdog Millionaire with Jess, Now before watching this movie i had heard the hype and i thought it was just spin. Anyway I think it is one of the best movies i have watched for a while. If you haven't seen this movie you must make the trip to watch it. You wont be disappointed!
You may have heard of the Santika Night Club burnt down killing 60 or so lives. The Emergency Services did a very good job rescuing the clubbers. With only 1 Exit that clubbers knew about and 1000 people inside im surprised it wasnt worse.
Thailand doesnt have the best health and saftey record from what i hear but I guess this could have happened anywhere. Most people when they go clubbing never take a moment to see there nearest fire exit so what happens is that everyone will just try to leave the same way they entered.
Thailand I thought has always been a spooky place to live. When the tsunami occured a few years back locals heard voices (of people crying for help) on the beaches days after.
It is believed that the Spirit will return 3 and 7 days after the dealth. So many people went to take pictures of the Santika Club to see if they can see anything. One person claim to have captured Ghost in his picture.
Hope everyone had a wicked break and stuff... ive been off over christmas so it gives me time to blog and do other stuff. Been so busy that i really dont have time to write anything ... so now that i do, i will fill in what i have been doing.
Before Christmas. Did the last minute shopping as always and i have decided Westfield is a really rubbish shopping centre.
90% are Clothing stores 5% are cosmetics and health store 1% Mobile Phone stores and the rest are like food, electronics etc.
So if you are not after clothing of smelly soap and makeup you cant really buy much.
In my opinion Brent Cross or High street Kensington has better choice of items.
Besides being a hermit for the pass months a few people have managed to drag me out to dinner which is amazing as im so lazy to go out.
Went to have dinner at Med Kitchen with Jess. It's a really good place to go. If you are bored with mid range places like Zizzi etc give Med Kitchen a try.
I'm also going through Netbooks like no tomorrow... I purchased the MSI Wind in November and it has been good to me but when Jessi go her Samsung NC10 i had to get one as well. The build quality is what you would expect from samsung and the battery on this laptop is amazing giving 6 hours of battery time.
I also use the Lenovo S10e at work and i must admit it is a very good netbook as well. Build quality is top notch only thing that lets it down is the battery life. I still use my MSI wind as it is the only netbook which you can watch HD videos on.
A few other purchases i have made over Christmas.
a PS3- yes i have given into pressure and have purchased it. Paid £255 with Little big planet so not bad. I must admit i play it alot more than my xbox 360 and Playstation Home (like Second Life) is amazing.
Tom Tom XL
Now dont be fooled with Tom Tom releasing different versions of the same thing etc. Argos are doing a decent price on the Tomtom XL (£126) Now this is the 2007 model but dont let that worry you. Register it online and you will get the latest Map updates and Speed Camera update absolutely free.
Still trying to catch up on updating my blog... so here are so pictures i didnt have time to put up...
First slide is motor show held at Excel. Some really nice cars and stuff... it was a good day out... had the famous GBK buffalo burger as well... very tasty.
My 27th Birthday... I had such a wicked time!!!! wished i could go clubbing all the time...
12th Dec was my work Christmas party. I started drinking to early and having an
empty stomach i got tipsy quickly and decided to dance all night... embarrassing myself :( the shame!
The Chancellor Alistair Darling, is expected to announce that he will be cutting VAT to the EU minimum of 15% (from 17.5%) . So an item costing £10 will now cost £9.75. Now this sounds all good and stuff but this means that £20 billion + is not going into the treasury pockets, one must ask is this wise in a time where public borrowing is sky high?
To me this seems like an extreme measure and just proves that this global downturn is real bad and this all sounds really good now but we will all need to pay it back in the future. No doubt our income taxes will have to go up in a few years time not to mention that all londoners will have to pay for the Olympics via local taxes the future is not looking bright but not orange.
Purchased a LG Cookie today. Im actually really happy with my SE C902 phone at the moment but i thought i must try this new phone. For £100 on pay as you go via the Carphonewarehouse who are selling it exclusively. The phone comes unlocked so you can use it on almost any network in the world.
Anyway it's the cheapest touch screen phone on the market but that doesnt mean it's crap. It is really good, fully featured but without 3G the interface is fast and it is easy to type texts.
