Seriously, you think you’ve seen it all, and yet people still come up with creative, amazing ways of entertaining everyone. This, from the Swedish techno-pop duo called Rymdreglage, is a real “retro” blast. If you grew up with loading games off tape, you’ll enjoy it:

As previously mentioned, I’ve started work in Mansfield. There’s a good old spit and sawdust gym within 5 minutes (for £15 a month, no less), with the added bonus of a boxing gym upstairs. I’m working on my flexibility and kicks on Mondays and Fridays (following Paul Zaichik’s Elastic Steel program), so that left Wednesday to do some weights in.
I’ve trained on and off for ages, so I would have been able to put a decent training routine together, but for the last six months or so, I’ve been reading Vic Magary’s GymJunkies‘ RSS feed. Vic runs a great site / blog on weight training, in an “old school” way, e.g. nothing like 3 sets of 12 reps, it’s all about pushing yourself, going the extra bit (safely), etc. He has videos and guides on how to train properly, e.g. how to squat, how to deadlift, etc. There’s training guides (including sample workout plans for total beginners), articles on general training and nutrition and much more besides.
Anyhoo, on an off-chance, I emailed him the night before my first training session on what I could achieve in 40 minutes, once a week. The next morning, to my pleasant surprise, there was an email from Vic with two sample workouts to be alternated each week. I’m currently working through them (I’m on week 3) and they’re going fine.
So, go and check out GymJunkies – it’s well worth it.
Not so much as a sequel, as a Tony Jaa’s great-great-great-etc.-grandfather’s life story:
Yes, it’s in French, but come on – you really don’t need to speak French to watch Tony Jaa wrestle a crocodile and shin people in the head several times 
A quick update on my work situation: I have some. I started at the Electrical Contractors’ Assocation up in Mansfield as a Senior Developer on the 21st July. Can’t comment too much, but suffice to say they’re a great bunch of folks and it’s interesting work.

Now, rise up and throw out this rotten, incompetent Labour government, who have ruined Britain.
