There were two other Marillion albums but they were live and compilation albums. That's the kind of stuff I avoid, unless I'm really into the band or if the compilation album serves a lot more than their greatest hits.

In the recent past, it's been a case that I browse at HMV, then go and buy twice as many albums from Play or Amazon.

I tend to buy one CD whenever I feel like it but do go with batches online, particularly if it's with metal distros for more efficient postage cost.

Yeah, but it's a case of what you can find to spend your money on that causes the consternation.

Ohhh, so you do get to play Borderlands with him outside the Kyoto Lounge?

Yeah, he collared me and said it was on Steam for Ãf'Ã'£5, with all the DLC in place, so I jumped at the chance.

Hopefully your laptop runs it well. I think mine's starting to give it up with all the games.

I cleared out about a dozen old games from the laptop after various indications said that I was less than 10GB from full on the hard drive. Might have to get an external drive and move iTunes to there...

I did find more stuff on HMV's website. A lot of stuff for fairly good prices right now so I found another batch to pick up.

I've always used an external drive for music. However, I have tons of duplicates due to WMA and MP3 files. I really should stick to just MP3 and leave it at that.

I don't think I ever tried it, so I cannot say if this statement is true or not. But on the other hand, I'm not that much into Lager anyway.

I know that some of the folk in motor racing circles complain that it's too hot, because the tyres start to melt, but you're just being picky. That said, we've been in double digits for most of the week, so I can't complain

I did see the starting line when we where transfered to our hotel, the driver pointed it out. If I don't forget, I most likely will watch at least some parts of the F1 grand prix in September.

I was happy with the start of the season yesterday, despite Lewis' problem, with Vettel sneaking past under the Safety Car. Damn bad luck.

For some reason I was awake at around 8am, so I just watched the race. Or, I turned on the TV to a station that showed the race and then I used my Netbook to surf around the internet. >_>

This just shows we need him a lot.

I hardly talk to him, but the conversation will pick up when he's back, as we talk about his holiday.

I read all of your posts, but I hardly find anything I can respond to. I don't know anything about criket and I don't watch Futurama. >_>

Well, I spent an hour in the batting net yesterday and I have a huge blister on the inside of my thumb and a bruised right index finger, when the ball trapped my hand between it and the bat handle. Fun :P

I can imagine this sucks. Luckily I didn't hurt my hands in quite some time.

Long-ish trip but it's good to see you back.

Almost two weeks. And we still haven't done everything we wanted to do.

Actually, that I would like as well but they think it wouldn't be cost efficient.

Yes, it propably is a lot more eco-friendly to put the stuff on a CD. After all, you'll need a CD anyway to install the program.

Yep, along with the other shit to get things installed.

But the boxes still are as huge as they used to be. At least, most of the time. Kind of silly if all you find in the big box is a single CD-Rom.

You should've been there. I saw one of your kinsdragons (see pic). He seemed a little bit unresponsive, though.

He looks rather flat. That's my bigger concern about him.

People trample around on him all day.

I don't watch cricket so that makes things even trickier.

Watching Cricket is even more boring than watching Baseball. That's saying something.

It's only occasionally that it hurts now, like when I try to type too fast and the index finger gets jammed on top of the bruise. If I will play things like cricket, I will suffer :P

Haggard needs to watch some Twenty/20 cricket. That's exciting, because you're supposed to see action all the time.

I'll take you on, would you like to bat or bowl first?

Because WMP is more flexible with playlists. I tend to get a bunch of music at once so it's easier to put them in a current playlist.
