Hooray for me, my Xbox 360's on the fritz! Tried playing Rainbow Six Vegas on it, and it's taken a turn for the worse;
For some odd reason, it likes to freeze up on me, whatever I try to do. I even had the RRoD flashing at me, however thats somehow gone away. I can't even play any of my other games, the damn thing locks up no matter whats in the drive.

Also, in b4 Kigo rants on about Microsoft - I know how much you love that company mate!

[mdhay]

You've just lost The Game.

At Mdhay, Blackburn is unusually loud today, eh mate? It's Eid, and the rather large Muslim population is probably celebrating en masse youngsters riding around in hired cars beeping and blasting music everywhere... it's the same here lol

[mdhay]

Not here in Longshaw it isn't. There aren't any asian families up here. Probably a good thing too, for their sake.

You're in Longshaw... oh dear!

[mdhay]

That's what I thought for the last 8 years.

[ACE-FLO]

It all makes perfect sense now! on relentless...

[mdhay]

Yeah, that's probably it. Even the kids from my primary are like that . When have you been up here?

[Lance]

ignorant question: What's the matter with Longshaw?

[ACE-FLO]

There's not much to do - except drive in to Preston and go bowling n pizza hut. There's always blackpool but it's like an hours drive. And blackpool's only worth going to when they turn the lights on.

Mdhay, I lived in Blackburn for 6months, back in my 20's.

Lance, Blackburn got bombed the schit out of during the war. Redevelopment took place on a series of hills. Roads northside of Whalley Range are built on a 30degree incline. Clutches on cars fail more often in Blackburn than anywhere else in Blighty!

Longshaw is a hole. If you have a job, you're treated like ****, and you run the risk of being jumped. Longshaw is mainly inhabited by people who are drunk, on the dole queue with their thumbs up their asses, or both. And that's just the kids...

[Lance]

?So, the only thing really wrong with Longshaw is that it has a smaller number of socialising opportunities than a larger place?

I would never even notice that since I don't go anywhere except the supermarket and the post office. So I guess I'm just a Longshaw kinda guy.

edit: oops, just saw mdhay's reply, which wasn't there as I started my comment. Hm... well... I'm so isolated that I probably wouldn't notice those defects. Luckily for me, I don't have a job.

[mdhay]

You'd still get jumped.

[Lance]

Well, it wouldn't be for having a hot body. :moderatelyturboedeyeroll:

[mdhay]

Doesn't matter. You could be Jesus, and you'd still get mugged.

[Lance]

What a pleasant little village.

Said Miss Marple, as she rubbed her hands in gleeful anticipation of investigating evil.

[mdhay]

Yeah, luckily, the government is gonna stop the dole payments, so ha ha ha haha ha.

[ACE-FLO]

True! I remember that place in Whalley Range that does the best kebab rolls. A couple miles from where I live, is Green Street. aka little India! lol, loadsa restaurants there. Some really good ones too... but I miss the kebab rolls from Whalley Range.

[Lance]

Ah, that ACE-FLO, always thinking of what is going to go in his mouth.



... food and smoke, that is.
