I seem to have found a window in the coughing, spluttering and sneezing to write this blog entry. I actually blame Cate for this entry as she’s unknowingly guilted me into writing it. Anyway, yes, like Richard Madeley, I have a cold. Or as Clarkson referred to it: “bird flu.”
I got hit with the cold virus, sorry, bird flu, just as I was coming out of a rough patch in my health so it’s knocked me back a bit and it’s why this blog has been quiet as of late – something I do apologise for! In times like these I’d usually rest up and read a book. Unfortunately, the book I’m currently reading is by Stephen Fry and the bird flu has been causing me to sneeze quite forcefully and suddenly, without much warning. I like Fry too much to coat his book in a veneer of…well, we’ll not go there as that’s not a pleasant image. Suffice to say, I didn’t want to read much.
Usually if I don’t fancy reading I’d play on Call Of Duty 4 with my friends but damn and blast it, the bird flu hath struck again, resulting in the loss of my voice, or a voice which sounds not too dissimilar to that of a hoarse Barry White, punctuated with a hacking cough and random sneezes, natch! So CoD4 was out.
In fact, the thing I began passing my time with was recommended to me by another Cate. Well, a Kate but it’s still virtually the same. Anyway, my friend Kate rather likes a game I’d frequently seen people talking about, called World Of Warcraft. In fact, she likes it so much she said I should try the 10-day free trial and, I admit, very kindly (I’m still blaming you for it taking over, you know that!) helped me pick my character and whatnot.
Now, unlike Kate I’m going to be kind and recommend you don’t get or try this game because I’ve become quite addicted to it and find it taking up far too much of my time. The game is counter-productive to the highest degree and I keep finding myself muttering “ooh just one more quest!” when I know I really should be doing other things. I’ve subsequently bought the full game and I’m being very impatient at its slow arrival. This is all your fault, Kate! If, in future, I post a blog entry about being broke, out of work and a hermit, you’ll know it’s Kate’s fault.**
Now, I can’t stay here all night typing to you folk. I’m off to take my Night Elf over to Bashal’Aran to kill some Furbolgs! Onwards, Trilby! (That’s my pet tiger in the game)
May Elune be with you.
** Kate’s lovely really, I don’t dislike her in the slightest. Oh and if you’re a fan of Kate treat this as a disclaimer and please don’t send me hate mail. I like Kate, I think it’s mutual(!), there’s no side to take, it’s not a war. Okay? Kate and I; peas in a pod and all that jazz. Good, glad that’s cleared up!
I’ve just noticed, quite a lot of lovely people are called Kate. Most notably, Kate Beckinsale!

I remember my first time on this website. My friend and I were looking for something totally new, something we haven’t read or heard about. We were so tired of college, and didn’t have too much time to go out. And we found this site, and now we come ever day to read some cool information or to discuss something with other people. It’s interesting to hear different points of view!
Good game thanks admin.
