Weekend...

Not a great deal has happened, therefore a lack of stuff to write a blog on really. Anyway is a run down what has happened since the last post;

Friday evening was very geeky/nerdy, a friend is back into retro/older gaming. So this took us on a memory trip with Crash Bandicoot on the Playstation. I remember first playing it at his at the age of 7... anyway nearly 13 years later and after 3 and a bit hours of spinning boxes and jumping over pits, the game was completed... then I remembered the frustration of playing such platform games. God idea of the level is simple, but getting the timings right...so frustrating at points

Saturday was lazy.

Sunday saw me at Brands Hatch watching classic old Forumla One cars race around the Grand Prix loop which was celebrating 60 years of racing. The old F1 cars are awesome to watch race, the noise and smell is intoxicating.
Some of the guys are not messing around when it comes to the racing...



This was the pass for the lead...close. More photos at http://www.flickr.com/photos/eosgreg/

On a different note, but still involving heavy metal. I finally watched the Story of Anvil film.

They are a band from Canada, inspired bands like Metallica, Megadeth...etc
They toured Japan with Whitesnake, Bon Jovi and Scorpions in '84. But they didn't make it, was of poor management and production, but they never gave up...



Pretty good and interesting film, shows how harsh the music business can be.
