God, I haven't blogged in ages!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've just been too lazy/busy, recently and its been toooooooooo much of an effort to turn on my pc!
That coupled with the fact that there isn't anything exciting to report in my life and the fact that I'm toooooo slow to write about current affairs makes this kinda boooorrrriiingggg!!!!!!!!!!!
I won't bore you with what's been happening since the last time I blogged (mainly cos my brain is toooo mushy to remember what's been going on).
However, the latest in my life is that I'm going to Germany on Sunday for work jolly (officially called teambuilding - but we know very little work will get done!).
I'm going to Bratislava next weekend!
I'm in the middle of buying a flat (nor about this in a later post).
Well I hope you have been suitably bored! More next time!

Mothers day....
Its mothers day today, and I'm ashamed to say that I feel like I've been a bad son!!!
This is not a post about me forgetting its mothers day and not getting my mum a gift.
Its more about me taking my mum for granted and not paying her any attention. I do constantlt tell me mum I love her, but I don't feel like I follow this up in actions. I don't keep her company when she's alone. I'm always late when I know she's relying on me.... and worst of all I think I put others before her.
I always say to myself I'm going to be better... let see if I change...
I LOVE MY MUM!!!

Its that time of year again....
....when people start to ponder over their useless lives, regret the things they've done and make futile resolutions which will last all of one week....
People up and down the country will be looking at their bank balances, relationships and waist (or lack of the first two and an excess of the third).
People will be sitting back and making resolutions in a attempt to become better...
So, hey, why should I be left out!!! I thought I'd throw my hat into the ring!
So here's my attempt at making a futile gesture.... (in no particular order)...
1. Become a better muslim - both in terms of practising what I know and learning more.
2. Look after my health - do more exercise (gym, badminton, football, kickboxing and squash).
3. Save more (become a tight @rse scrooge - some people already say I am one).
4. Do more for myself (go out more, see more friends).
5. Look out for number one (say no more to people and yes to me).
These are fairly general, but they are more a statement of the peron I want to be.
Lets meet in a year's time to check the progress.

The New Look
The host of this blog has updated the functionality so I've decided to redecorate.
Over the next few weeks I'll be trying out some new looks, so let me know what you guys think!
(I have noticed that for some reason the paragraph spacing doesn't work so it each post appears as one block of text - I know I could just edit the html to make it look right but I'm too lazy and stupid to do that!!!
So until that side of things gets sorted I'll try and keep my posts short sweet.
UPDATE
On reading back, I've noticed that I've written loads of absolute pointless drivel. I thought about removing the worst posts, or the embarassing ones - but that would mean deleting the entire blog - instead I'll just remove some at random (they may reappear in the future)!
UPDATE 2
Ok, I've figured out how to sort the paragraph spacing out so that reading the blog doesn't give me a headache - but cos I'm lazy its gonna take me a while to update all the posts (and knowing my luck google will sort it out just as soon as I've finished).
Also to make the site look less cluttered I'm gonna only show the most recent entries (instead of all) - but, I'm also adding categories (including one titled favorites so you can enjoy my glory).

How accurate is google????
I got this in an e-mail a few months back and only got round to checking it out recently....
No wonder so many people say google's search engine can find anything for
you
1- Go to Google (http://www.google.com/ <http://www.google.com/> )
2- Type in the word "Failure"
3- Instead of clicking "Google Search," click "I'm Feeling Lucky."
4- Giggle..don't laugh out loud!!!!
5- Spread the word before the people at Google "fix" it.

I'm back
Yes that's right... the prodigal son has returned... the one and only is back in town.... The prayers of all my loyal blogfans have been answered.... The slickster is back in action... i've come out of retirement to entertain those whose lives are blighted by boredom, to inform the uniformed, to dazzle the stars, to rescue those poor souls crying out for hope... (ok maybe i'm getting carried away... ) Whether this comeback will see me rise like a phoenix from the flames or crash and burn like a boxer making a comeback having eaten one kebab too many... let me know if i've still got the magic... or whether i stink like a rabid dogs backside!!!!!! Sit tight. Continue plundering and pillaging. I am annoyed I have had no reports of your plunderous exploits.

Anger in reflection
Again this title sounds deep but trust me it isn't.....
In one of my previous posts (the search for me), I said I was surprised that when I put my name into Google, an entry referring to me came as high as 5th.......
However.......
After a weekend reflecting..... I have become angry, nay enraged..... How can someone with my stature, my brilliance, my wit, my charm be relegated to a lowly fifth.
I'm the king of the world, this is my planet you... you plebs merely live on it.... I should have been at the top of the list! Infact every entry should have referred to me... no ait every result in every search carried out (regardless of the subject searched for) should refer to me.
I am disgusted with the antics of Google... but in my magnanimous generosity, I will assume this is merely a small oversight on their part, to this end I will allow Google (and every other search engine) a period of 20 nanoseconds to correct their churlish behaviour... after which I will take Google to the Ineternational War Crimes tribunal (cos it is that bad an offence) and sue them for every penny/cent/shilling etc etc that they have!

Congratulations to Matt and Amanda
A very good friend of mine, Matthew Vickers (aka the Golden Child/Boy Wonder etc etc) got engaged to his girlfriend (now fiancee). Actually he got engaged on 14th of February, but the party was last night....
Matty actually proposed in style, he pretended that he was taking her to Cork, then whisked her off to Venice, booked the penthouse suite, then got down on one knee and proposed in the suite.........
For all those who don't know I went to uni with Matt for four years, and he does deserve the title of golden boy (I was thinking of using golden balls... but I don't know him that well!!!). Matt was a brilliant student and academically gifted, on a completely different level to most others, he's good looking always and had all the laydeez after him (but always behaved like a gentleman), he was good at all sports, has a great job, works hard and should be Presicent of the world soon..... infact he is the prime candidate for being the target of pure hatred, he should make you physically sick etc etc etc...
BUT MATT'S MOST ENDEARING QUALITY IS THAT HE IS SUCH A NICE GUY, you actually can't do anything but love the guy!!!!! He's the type of guy who would spend the day before an exam helping others understand the subject. He carried my bags at uni when I broke my leg... I could go on forever but I guess you get the picture...
Now for Matts embarrassing bits....
He can easily spend hours getting ready in fromt of a mirror.... he has been known to get lost when out with friends because he's too busy looking at his reflection to notice where everyone has gone!
He has been known to sit in trains and taxi's with hair straighteners tarting himself up on the way to work!!!!
Anyway... that's all the embarrasing bits I think I can mention for now ;)
At the engagement it was good to see old friends like Scotty to Hotty and Mo.... I was a bit dissappointed that Stuart "BOOBOO" Smedley couldn't make it... I'm sure if he wanted to he could have caught a cab all the way from the Canary Islands!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
