So yeah finally got round to paying for hosting, got a pretty sweet deal from Hostgator

What’s New?
Summer was all good had less work hours + more play time so yeah you get the point, I got a sweet pay off from my shares in the Corus Group, meaning less work wasn’t an issue.

In august I got myself an ex-police Vauxhall Astra Mk4 (yes its white and no it doesn’t have no police stickers etc (why do people ask that :S)) it’s a S reg 99 registered bad thing is that its done just over 100k miles haha but as its an ex-police car its had more than double servicing so its all in good working order and it’s a diesel.

After getting the car I finally got round to doing “paid” driving lessons (yes after I got my car lol) at the end of August to this date I’ve done 25 hours and 1 exam which I failed, got 3 minors for clearance of obstructions; if you don’t know 3 minors of the same thing counts as a major, basically the examiner said every time he took me down a side street with cars parked on the left he feared I was going to hit the wing mirrors of all the parked cars so yeah that was my 3 minors. Personally I think it’s a messed up reason considering I’ve been driving since summer with different people and not one person has said this to me so its obviously his own opinion that failed me, and the fact I didn’t actually hit the car mirrors doesn’t that then mean I have good control of the car lol??? Ah well, have to rebook another exam (another £48.50) and that’s in January L I’m pretty sure any American reading this will be lol’ing to themselves, I get it all the time on IRC.

When I do finally pass, I gotta do what a man’s gotta do I.C.E, In Car Entertainment

Crack
Remember my cracked Zune?, I replaced the screen and soon later I some how managed to crack the screen of my HTC Tytn insurance company didn’t wanna do nothing so I bought a replacement screen which ended up FOA – Faulty on Arival (sigh), by then the HTC Tytn II had just been announced so i waited a couple of weeks and bought me one mucho mucho better than the Tytn I.

The Black Xbox
My black modded Xbox 360 got banned in the first wave of bans (when halo 3 multiplayer beta was released), theres nothing like coming home from a long night shift and finding your Xbox has been banned, what hurt more is that 90% of my games collection was real retail copies lol most of the copies i have i have for when there released on the web early, then when its in stores i put my money on the counter. 7 Hours after finding out i was banned about 10am’ish i went and got a preowned premium from Gamestation. For a while i had 1 banned Modded Xbox and 1 Legit Xbox, it doesnt stop there tho,in october i swapped my Black Banned Xbox for a legit Xbox + £30 to me . I got the good end of the deal dont you think?

Work
I got a 2 week suspension from work in October because of a serious accusation lol but yeah its all been cleared up

The funny stuff

And now for a couple of videos that was captured since the site has been down, don’t go crazy if you’ve already seen them before, its just a timeline.

P.S I didnt have a phone for a month of the summer hence the shortage of pics/vids

Now my 360 and my pc match :O

Using the XCM 360 Chameleon Case and Blue Aurora Lights

The newly “confirmed” black 360 this isn’t an April Fool’s hoax. So, without further delay, the specs:

• Uh, it’s black
• HDMI port and HDMI cable
• 120GB hard drive
• A $479 price tag
• No HD-DVD integration, the “format’s not proven”
• The 120GB hard drive will be available for under $200
• It’s coming in “late April”

Engadget adds:

• Dubbed the Xbox 360 Elite
• Limited-edition; probably a couple hundred thousand units
• Case, controller, and headset will be black; new packaging
• Confirmed: 3rd SKU; sold alongside Premium and Core bundles
• Elite runs cooler than other models
• Eventually Elite hardware (in white) will replace Premium; estimated to be in late summer or fall

At the same time theres gonna be a release of a 120gb HDD and 512mb memory card
