Step Into My World

It's been a strange week.

Yesterday I was on Jury Service again and spent all day sitting about waiting. I managed to read a whole book in the time I was there.
Robin Hood- The Myth which examines whether Robin Hood was a real person or not. *yawns* gosh it was boring.

However I have been shortlisted for the major trial which goes ahead shortly.

I had dinner around my sister's new house (jacket pots,steak,salad). Yum! She's in hospital today so I'd like to send her my love and I'll see you later!

Tomorrow I'm heading for Loughborough University for BXB LAN 6. It's being filmed for Games Network TV and basically involved Xbox competitions and lots of beer.

I'm doing a review of the event for www.xequted.com so hopefully we'll have a great time!

A few weeks ago I began to write a book(fiction) which I have been thinking about for some time.

I know by looking at my blog you may think that I am not very literate, but that's because I'm lazy on my blog. I wouldn't say I'm particularly talented at writing but a book is something that I have always wanted to write.

The book is inspired by the likes of Mary Hoffman's Stravaganza
http://www.stravaganza.co.uk
Terry Pratchett
and J.K Rowling

The main inspiration and the idea came from my interest in conspiracies and fortean subjects.

I've been reading a lot of stuff about the Earth being Hollow, the theories behind it and the accounts of people who claim to have visited the inner earth.My book will involve this alternative world and hopefully be an amazing adventure.
The book will be children's/teenage fantasy.

I'm really excited because so far it is certainly a book I would like to read, and although it is in the initial stages I have a clear framework and characters.

Whilst researching material for the book I was dumfounded to find a website that is offering a journey to find Hollow Earth. The whole subject is absoultely fascinating.

There is a team of people who are planning to travel to the North Pole and attempt to make it to the Pole to try and discover whether the theory that there is an entrance to the underground world is true or not.

What an adventure! If only I had the money to join them.

Check it out! This is truly out of this world

Below is one theory and an artists impression of what the Hollow Earth would contain.

Well today I headed for court and spent the day sitting around twiddling my fingers.

What a waste of time! Firstly you have no choice but to do Jury Service. The facilities are really poor and you are crowded into a room with a hundred or so other would-be jurors.

Boring!

On Saturday I went to the cinema with my fiancee to watch Pride & Prejudice. Personally I would have preferred to watch Guy Ritchie's new film, but the reviews were awful.

I thought it was a great film!

The portrayal of the Bennett sisters was superb and Kiera Knightly was radiant!(my god I'm even speaking like an extra from a Jane Austen film!)

I drove probably the last Mercedes I'll ever drive.

The job that I took on for Mercedes two weeks ago is now over.

I knew when I started it was only a temporary job, but hoped it wouldn't be THAT temporary.

I've never been into cars at all but I've had the opportunity to drive a lot of different Mercedes models this week. It has truly been a pleasure.

The C Class Sports edition was my favourite. Pure style and comfort.Fitted with Global Satellite positioning, rain sensing window wipers, dvd player,heated seats and so many buttons I didn't know what to press. I normally get lost wherever I go but you type in the address you are going to and the car directs you to the doorstep.

Today I went to Milton Keynes, following the instructions from Tamworth. It took me right to the doorstep!

It's sad to leave so soon but I do feel priviledged to have drove such great cars.

The car below is almost like the one I drove today. But it bonnet slopped down more. It looked more sporty than the one below.
