New Phone Number

Mon, 10 Mar 2008 18:33:51 GMT

As some of you may know my phone kept breaking and so I took it in to be looked at. Seems the SIM card was knackered so I had to get a new one and thus a new number: 07500 212036

I managed to get everyone's number off my old SIM so I won't have to get them all again. Hopefully I won't lose contact with everyone again now.

I am returned

Mon, 03 Sep 2007 10:11:20 GMT

Much sooner than expected. Things went much better than expected with my mum and so I am back early! And not a minute too soon. I'm a very calm person, I don't get stressed and on the whole, like to just potter amiably through life. How then can a 7 year old reduce me to rage fuelled murder?

Ah well, I won't have to see the little **** till christmas now.

Glad to be back and looking foward to seeing you all again

Darren

Hopefully brief absence

Sat, 25 Aug 2007 21:22:52 GMT

hey all.

Just wanted to let you all know, I shall be going back home tommorrow.

Long story made short, my mum has to go into hospital and there's no-one to look after my baby brother while she's in. Apparently its a relatively routine operation, a few days inside and then a few days till she's back on her feet. If all goes as planned, I should only be away a week or so.

Apologies for the late notice, especially to all those GM's whose games I'll be missing. We do have internet at home, so if anyone needs to get in touch with me urgently, you can do so here or on my mobile (which now seems to be working again) 07789 280228.

Hope to see you all soon.
Take care

Darren

Talk about life decision!!!

Tue, 27 Jun 2006 18:22:23 GMT

Well, today was quite a monumental moment in my life. Today I spoke to my boss and told him that come september, I would be moving to Sheffield, and not pursuing a career in Kent County Council Finance. As many of you know, I have been uming and ahing about it for about a year now, but the deed is done. Parents told, work told and now you told.

So, things to do. tonight: nothing at all :) chill, relax :)

as of tommorrow, start getting my life sorted. I need to find a job, a house, I need to start thinking about what to take (everything might be a bit much) and need to find many MANY games to play :) and start writing my campaign proper for the now epic dnd game I shall want to run if I can con old members to sign up again :)

I've got wine at hand, I've got a huge bowl of chilli waiting down-stairs. Life's looking pretty sweet right now.

Hope you are all well,
Darren

The terrible curse of my bloodline

Tue, 06 Jun 2006 12:25:35 GMT

I always knew my brother was evil. Those terrible bi-optic iris'. His actions. The blood all other the walls. But now i have irrefutable evidence. Today, as I am sure you all know is the 6th day of the 6th month of the 6th year (mark the number of the beast) And today is his 6th birthday.

I'll be honest, this freaks me out a little. I now see 2 paths before me. Should I put a stake through his heart while he sleeps? Or should I lead him onto the path of the taint, and let him know its sweet embrace?

Your opinions please.

Apart from having to sleep in the same house as satan incarnate, I am fine. Hope you are all too.

Families!

Fri, 28 Apr 2006 11:40:44 GMT

For those of you who ever wondered where my bad communication comes from, the truth is now out. It's my mum. A few minutes ago I got this text message:

"Do you have your keys? We are going this afternoon. shall I leave you a set in the back garden?"

"Where are they going?" I thought to myself. Gave them a ring. turns out that I have the house to myself for the next few days as the rest of my family are going on holiday until wednesday.

"oh. didn't I tell you?" < sigh >

nationals weekend

Wed, 22 Mar 2006 13:03:52 GMT

To all those occupying 8 Clarke Street. I have managed to wrangle 2 days off from my boss (major acheivement by the way). In particular the 7th and 10th of April. Would it be ok to come up the evening of Thursday the 7th and leave at some point during the 10th. Just so I might actually get to spend some time with one or two of you in between being swept up by the chaos of the nationals. Go on. you know you want to say yes. there might be a kipper in it for you.

how is everyone by the way? I hardly seem to catch up with any of you anymore. Speak to Mark every now and then, but thats it. wow me with your latest gossip, news, illnesses, perfectly excecuted murders or pains.

Free!!!!!

Sat, 18 Feb 2006 12:20:04 GMT

Free at last. They have let me out of hospital at long last. ah real food... a soft bed... undisturbed sleep. Heaven. But they have made it very clear that though I am out, I am not well. So I am house-ridden for the next week or so until my chest-infection goes away and I can become a productive member of society again. Until then, lots of crack!

Ah, a week of nothing but food and City of Heroes. and stolen anime :) so if any of you see me on City of heroes take pity on an unwell man and power-level my ass to the moon. You must obey!

Oh, not again

Fri, 10 Feb 2006 09:11:32 GMT

Well, I'm back in hospital again, and have been for some time, all I can remember is coming home and going to bed. Waking up in a bed different is always bad. the usual disease. so no need to worry. and they have internet here!!! but v expensive, so i will go. take care

I haven't laughed this hard in ages

I had had a REALLY crap day, and this cheered me up no end. just wanted to share

Gone! All gone!!

Mon, 05 Sep 2005 18:16:02 GMT

I've finally biten the bullet. My beautiful locks are gone. I've been putting it off for weeks and finally ran out of excuses. This weekend was horribly hot and I could take no more. Its all spiky and short. Not sure if I like it yet. We shall see.

Bank Holiday

Thu, 18 Aug 2005 18:58:30 GMT

Kent is driving me crazy.

So as the august bank holiday is coming up soon, and I was thinking of coming up to sheffield to visit.

I was rather hoping I could stay with Dave and Sarah, if that is ok?

Probably arriving thursday 25th night and leaving monday night.

Is this a problem?

Look foward to seeing you all soon!

HATE!!!

Thu, 16 Jun 2005 12:14:48 GMT

I really hate support groups. My copy of CoH won't start up properly, so I log the problem with the help group. My reply was that someone may get in touch with me in the next 24 hours. I just want to play the game now.

City of Heroes

Wed, 15 Jun 2005 15:37:08 GMT

What server do you guys play on?

What? You knew I would cave in.

Fri, 10 Jun 2005 08:04:59 GMT

Great quote from todays Order of the Stick:

"Sacrificing minions. Is there any problem it CAN'T solve?"

My sort of policy.

Wed, 08 Jun 2005 14:16:25 GMT

Hey all,

just to let you know, I will be getting into sheffield Friday night about 9pm. Dave will just have to have the pirate priest arrive late and in some dramatic fashion after a daring and secret mission. Yar! I can feel myself slipping into character already!

BORED!

Tue, 07 Jun 2005 10:01:22 GMT

Heya,

As LJ seems to be used mainly for moaning, I thought I would try it.
I am having the worst day. My bus didn't turn up this morning. So as well as missing my train to work I had to pay £2.20 instead of 1 pound for the bus. Got in to work late (not a problem though because as my boss is working from home today). And now my computer has broken. I am on someone else's but I can't get to my spreadsheets. So today I will in fact be sat here answering the phone. That's it. I usually get about 5-6 calls a day. Support says it may be tomorrow now until they send someone out.

God I'm bored!!!!

Mon, 06 Jun 2005 14:32:39 GMT

heya,

johannes. If you get a spare moment before friday, can you have a quick look and see if you can find my stronghold disc. I have now unpacked everything and can't find it. I remember yours was german and mine english, so should be easy to check. see you friday

Thu, 02 Jun 2005 11:48:13 GMT

heya

a quick thought. as I'm coming up on the 10th, and as I need roleplay, I was thinking I would run a one off. I've got a few ideas. about 25th level dnd. If people are interested I will get started on it. hmmmmm.

June 10th

Thu, 26 May 2005 20:32:26 GMT

Hey all

Just a quick one. Mark and I should be coming up for the weekend starting 10th June. I am looking foward to seeing you all again, and I was wondering if a spare floor was going? I will only be staying for friday and saturday night, so if there is room, please reply and I will start packing with haste. And any roleplay that might be availible will be rewarded with huge smile and insane evil laughter. 9 MONTHS WITHOUT IS TOO LONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
