Several Days In The Life of...: The Dreaded Lurgi

Lurgi: A slang word used to describe an illness such as a the common cold or flu.

Yes I've got it.

As hard as I tried to avoid it (not very) I have caught what is commonly know as the "Fresher's Flu."

A lack of vitamin C, alot of alcohol and probably going out into town Thursday night in shorts, t-shirt and flip flops have all combined to give me a bunged up nose, sore eyes and a chesty cough.

Bollocks.

As a result I missed my Friday seminar as well as my Friday night 5 aside...which saw our first defeat ever at the hands of the 3 times champions "Take A Bow Son"...4 goals to 1.

As you can tell, I really am sick...

Anywho, consequently (nice word) I haven't really done a huge amount of interesting things in the past few days. However, I have picked out a couple of gems to share.

The first relates to Thursday night's partying. It was beach themed...hence the shorts and t-shirt. But, for the first time ever...in my experience anyway, we had to queue to get into Club I.

It may not seem a shock to those who don't have any idea what I'm blabbering on about but to me, I have never been so outraged.

Anyway, this wasn't the news. The news was that, even though the drink is common knowledge, I had a Refresher for the first time.

For those who don't know what it is:

Blue VHF/WKD

Yellow (Lemon) VHF/WKD

Simple. And! Does actually taste like a Refresher the sweet...smiley face for the first time ever! :)

Now, just a quick nerdy side note to anyone who is interested. Medal of Honor came out on Friday and a certain house mate has certain ways of obtaining certain things in a certain style.

Not stealing from a shop.

So, as he/she studied like a good boy/girl I played as best as I could and completed the story in about 3 hours. All in all, not bad. Graphics are good, cutscenes are awesome, storyline is good. Yet, for those who like CoD Modern Warfare 2 it'll all seem very samey to you...
