Playing Games
Toca Race Driver
Junior Curly (aged 7) and I have been playing games on the pc this afternoon after I collected him from school.
Let's be honest, with gale force winds and driving rain I could hardly expect him to play outside! Missy Curly (aged 3) was asleep on the sofa, so we decided to play Toca Race Driver. I've always enjoyed going to motor race meetings, I've been to Croft, Donnington Park and Oulton Park, so I thought I could give this my best shot (of course I insisted on using the game pad whilst he had to settle for the keyboard. I like the split-screen multiplayer racing, it appeared quite exiting!)
Damn, how do people manage to control the car and keep it on the track, every corner was an adventure into the gravel traps, or a sudden stop as I hit the barriers or walls. All the while Junior Curly raced his car off into the distance!
I guess I'll have to be like that Bellendamy bloke and practise while the kids are at school.
Life can be so cruel to fathers!
New Blog Skin
Just as I said last night, I've changed the blog template, there were loads (thousands to be right) to choose from, do you like it? You can get one too from this site, free of charge! So you may see the style of this blog changing from time to time. The next thing to add will be a tagg board so that readers and visitors can add their comments to this blog and start a little chit-chat.
Happy surfing
