In the beginning

At the start of every blog is a paragraph explaining how the author has never done a blog before and to bare with them throughout the period of ‘getting up to speed with the concepts’. This is no different.

However I don’t plan to bore you with details on how illiterate I am, or how I have never written a blog, instead here is some basic information outlining me in a Q and A fashion. Granted this could be slightly more tedious…

Where can I start? Well Books of course!

‘What is the title of the last fiction book I read?’

            In the past few years I have been indulging in the musing of a Young James Bond. With the series coming to a final close with ‘By Royale Command’, this is one of the very few novel series I have managed to follow from start to end.

With my preference in fictional to non-fictional (due to the readily available information on the interwebs) in recent years I have not read many non-fictional books.

‘What was the last live performance I attended?’

            Although I have 2 ‘gigs’ lined up from the likes of Linkin Park and Gorrilaz, my most recent live performance was Cold Play at the Wembley Arena, London.

‘What is the last film I viewed?’

            After living in ignorance of the series (both game and film) I decided to buy into the phenomenon that is Resident Evil. Having now seen the first film I may be drawn into spending more of my money on the series.

‘How often do I read newspapers?’

            Here is where I say I read the sun. Specifically a certain page, however this is a family blog… and so;

With the internet at my fingertips I feel that newspapers are a waste of money, where I can get all the information more up to date and relevant to myself online.

‘What art gallery/museum/exhibition did I last visit?’

            This is asking to stretch my memory back. I believe the last educational style place that I visited was the Science museum in London way back in year 4 or 5. Otherwise I can’t say I remember.

‘How many hours a week do I spend playing video games?’

            Recently, due to a lack of educational reasons for going out, a lot more. Now that I have entered University life I probably average 1-2 hours a day.

‘How many hours a week do I spend playing games other than video games?’

            There are games which are not on video?!

So that’s the formal stuff done. I hope I have welcomed you sufficiently to my blog. If you are still reading this, it is a miracle! [Or you are my tutor.]

I shall try to keep this blog alive no matter how boring, if I find amusing links, reviews or new tech that interests me expect to see short sharp blog postings.

For now catch me online,

Ross, out.
