My New Campaign

BRING BACK CHALLENGE ANNEKA!!!
I challenge anyone to find anything wrong with Challenge Anneka. It had everything you need in a programme. It had that really cool Animated Title sequence it, with cool music, it had a lycra clad fitty running around and making people give her stuff, it had a dune buggy (never explained why a car asnt satisfactory) it had cool big lorries, did I mention lycra?
The reason I've stated thinking about this great show again is because I told the new saturday lad that I was setting him a 'Challenge Anneka' Task and he looked at me blank and said 'what the f**k is Challenge Anneka?' After a couple of minutes crying that I was clearly so old to remember something from so long ago, I started getting all nostalgic. And while we're at it Bring Back Treasure Hunt too! (Again) It's about the same but with a nice shiny Chopper! I dont mind if they bring that back with Suzi Perry though.
Right that's all today just thought I'd start the ball rolling post a comment on this thread then I'll contact the BBC and I should think we'll see 'Challenge' on again by Christmas.

PS. Thanks too to my irst Poster a Matthew Gordon from Nuneaton, Warwickshire. You win a meal for two at a luxury 4 star restaurant. For more information on claiming your prize click here:-

When you're down, and lost, and need a helping hand..

We I haven't been keeping up to date with posts, but then as most people arent reading this it probably doesnt matter. I bet if started slagging everybody off they'd read it!
But I couldn't do that to my lovely friends! I COULD do it to my not so lovely friends of course but I shan't single them out.
I've not really got a lot to say, just realised I hadn't posted much. Maybe I'll ahve lots to chat about tomorrow after the next 2 episodes of Lost, which looks set to grip me the next few weeks. It should last me hopefully until Laura can start lending me The OC. However if it doesnt, I can see me being forced to buy The OC! Oh well.

Song I Like today:- McFly - I'll Be Ok.

It's the Final Countdown..doo doo doo doo dah dah dah dah dah

This is going to be a more cheerful post as I was accused of being too morose in my first one. I do apologise to those I depressed with my self depreciating doom and gloom mongering.

So today I highlight the exciting prospects of the future - 5 calendar months today we will be in !!!!!! Wow! isn't that exciting? It'll be New Years Eve, we'll be standing on the precipice of 2006 and we'll be drinking so much we're sick! Which I haven't done for...ooohhh... weeks! And then we will be whizzing down the mountain (at various levels of whizz - from Greg-speed, through Jacob-dawdling-speed, to Ryan 'Which way did you go? I'm at the bottom of a different run.' speed.

Sadly of course we wont be with some of our bestest friends again, like last year, but I hope that they understand (or come with us - it'll be great)

Also in todays news. Nicole, the new weekender at work, guessed my age at 28. She couldn't work out if I'd aged well, or aged badly so when I asked her to guess that's what she said. I don't mind too much really as she did say that she was 'certain' I wasn't over 30, and 'fairly certain' I wasn't under 20.

Also the Episode III DVD is available to pre-order now. Below are some *exclusive* shots from the previously unseen cut lightsaber sequence in which a heroic lone-Jedi fights off Anakin and his marauding Clone Trooper army:-
