The Things You Are HAPPY About Thread.

Cool. How much did your uke cost if you don't mind me asking?

 

[Langers]

£25. It's perfect for my son and for me to practise on. Here laddo practising with it:

The shop I got it from had some quite beautiful yet pricey ukes in it. But paying upwards of £150 for a present for a 4 year old really wasn't a good idea.

Unless it's an xbox....

 

[Langers]

Well obviously! Waiting for the announcement of the next console...

I've not had a new console since the PS2. I'm just waiting til the child is old enough to use her an excuse to get whatever is out by then.

 

[Langers]

Plenty of excuses have been trotted out.

"Kinect is good for exercising."

"Call of Duty is a good source of historical content."

"Rocksmith will really help to define their musical preferences and unlock any potential therein."

"F1 is a really good simulator for my driving lessons."

"You like the Iliad and the Odyssey - how is God of War any different?"

"You've seen how worked up I get over Wolves. FIFA helps me to train myself to be composed as I can just restart the game if I'm losing."

Sadly, Mrs Langers is much more intelligent than I am so none have worked but I'll keep trying.

Sadly my console playing has been a thing of the past since having our daughter. Luckily I managed to fit a lot in while my wife was pregnant (even though she got a bit annoyed at me spending hours mining different planets on Mass Effect 2 as the music drove her mad!). We have a Kinect though so I guess when she gets a bit older there will be lots of playing on that.

 

[Langers]

My Xbox only ever comes on when the kids are in bed.

 

[machin05]

I've been close to convincing the good lady using the kinect/exercise/dance central route, but truth is, we neither have the time or money at the mo.

Can't wait til we do though!

For the first time in over a week I woke up this morning without a banging headache.

I think I might finally be getting over woman flu.

I had similar 10 days ago. Still find I'm a bit snotty sometimes, along with the occasional sore throat.

He does make me smile.

 

[UKYankieWWFC]
