Happy Halloween

Published by Fence under Books, Ramblings

So I bought my shiny shiny Nintendo DS Lite last night. And got a great deal from Argos. €149 for the console, a game[1] and an accessory pack. So basically I paid for the console and got the rest of the stuff for free. I also bought one of those Brain Training thingies. Which was supposed to cost 30 quid, only they only charged my 15. Score!

And I’ve gone ahead and ordered my R2 card plus 2gb micro card so once that arrives I’ll be well sorted for all my gaming needs.

In other news Carl’s RIP Challenge comes to an end today. And for it I read Fool Moon by Jim Butcher, The Prestige by Christopher Priest, Danse Macabre by Laurell K. Hamilton, Wormwood by Poppy Z.Brite, Lost Souls by Michael Collins, and The Road by Cormac MacCarthy. And I’ve just bought Stephanie Meyer’s Eclipse[2] so I’ll read that this evening. And there are plenty more reviews for you to investigate here.

Spend spend spend

Published by Fence under Musing

Decisions, decisions. I’m thinking of spending money. But I’m not sure on what yet. When the PSP first came out I did think about getting one. But then that faded and I never did. De sister has a DS, and they do look fun. I’m thinking getting one. With the Brain Training game. Anyone got one and can recommend another game. Or got one and hated it and can tell me why I shouldn’t get it?
