Greetings fair cyberspace travellers. Welcome back to anyone who may have had my blog already inflicted upon them. I would like to say that I have spent the little while away from posting to reflect and grow or at least researching new postage. I haven't. I've been on yet another X-Men bender. In my defence ... it was the X-Men.
It all started through a conversation at work. My old friend Richard, who I have known since I was like four, works in the same place as me by sheer coinkidink and due to one thing or another we have managed to discover that we share the comic book mutants as our secrent shame/pleasure. But for all who are interested in slightly cheaper goods off Amazon take heed. We got to talking about the 'Age of Apocalypse' event and the assorted characters that were included/missed/added and -ofcourse- the graphic novels. Well I have the first book of the epic and want them all. Richard taught me of the existance of the 'New Age of Apocalpse' limited series.
Well I went straight to Amazon and ordered the Complete Epic bk.2, The complete New AoA and a DVD called Eating Out. Well I got the confirmation e-mail but it said that I might not get it till after I go back to Uni because one item wasn't in stock. Well it just gave me dates - luckily the Interent doesn't hold THAT much personal information! So I rang up to see if there was anyway I could be guarenteed the other items before then. Well turns out he couldn't find the button that would do that either (apparently it should exist!) SO, after some fiddling, the offending item was cancelled one other item was reduced by £5 "for all the trouble" and I was given free delivery that I no longer should have qualified for. Not too shabby, and all because I couldn't see the words "not currently in stock". So yeah, word to the wise, balls up your internet purchases to get it cheap!
Right well after that missive I wish to entertain you with what, IMO, is the full proper and correct use of gum equipment - keeping me happy. OR as my Munchkin put it : "ooh... what rhythmic men!"
