I attempted to, but when I lugged it downstairs I discovered I couldn't change the TV onto the EXT channels as there's no remote for it, so I might have to take my TV down there too... which is sounding a lot like work. More than I'd like.
In other good news, a guy on another forum is sending me Oblivion, Assassin's Creed and Bullet-Witch for free, simply because he's bored of them. Win!

I'm not one to turn down a free game. It's why I've got so many review code games back at my parents' place. They're the barely-finished copies they give to magazines for review. They come in a tiny jewel case with a small insert explaining controls and that's it.
I finished the whole of the official Fantastic Four game... another indication of what a boring summer I must have had in years past.

Game based on the film. The sort of game where the unlockable content is clips from the film and cast documentaries, that boring shit.
In other boring news, I'm looking for a job. I'm reading one about barstaff, it says in the middle of it "Duties involve working in the presence of nudity which may cause embarrassment." so I'm thinking hell yeah, for it sounds interesting.

Oh man, I think I'd be telling everyone I knew ever, plus random people in the street.
I also applied for a supermarket. Forgot how much random bollocks you need to add to these forms. It looks terrible too, for one of my references I put 'I'll have to get back to you on that' and everything.

Nope, it's barstaff. They warned me at the job centre that it's only barstaff and if I'm asked to do anything inappropriate to tell them.
... though, I think I'll use my best judgement...

If they asked you to go topless every Friday night for an extra tenner an hour, would you do it?

What I'm saying is that they'd always be the favourite types of tea and biscuit of whoever's eating and drinking them. It'd also be however fresh you want it.
Magical tea and biscuits

Nope, since I don't like Jaffa Cakes and you wouldn't know if I were topless or not anyway.

Yeah, I finally got through to said strip club! I'm off down there tomorrow night, so I can be all nervous and scared by regulars.
The hours don't sound as good as they did at the Job Centre though.

It was Cloud 9, but I think they changed it recently. Which is why I can't seem to find its postcode online to feed into multimap so I know how to get there.
The guy on the phone said to pop in between 8 and 10, so I have a 2 hour window to at least
find the place

Surely they should tell you the name of the place? Or do you have to do a few fetch quests first before you unlock that area of the map?

Hmm. I found a different postcode, in the same area. Guess I'll just wander around a bit and look confused. Maybe slay a few low level enemies, level up a bit. Find some materia.

I don't believe it. The bar was only right NEXT to my favourite takeaway in Lincoln. I've been going there for over 3 years and never took in that there was a strip club next door.
I've got to play the 'waiting to hear from us' game now

They do kebabs, yeah, but I always buy pizza. Keep telling myself to save half for breakfast the next day, but I always eat the whole thing on the way home.

I actually did win, but the declared winner cheated, so I didn't
