Quick Blog: Twas the Quick Blog Before Christmas!

Hello Merry Readers,

I hope this Blog before Christmas finds you Merrier then I, yes I'm still in a bit of a humbug mood today. In fact I've been somewhat of a humbug all week and I promise not to bring you down to much in this quick blog. I wanted to get a blog out before Christmas night incase Santa decided to shoot me with his pistol because I've been such a total moaning git this past week. I don't want to be, that's for sure. But it's all the crap that comes with Christmas that gets me down, now I shall admit  I love some Christmas TV. I watched some brilliant 'brand new' Ras C Nesbitt last night (A scottish comedy that was huge back in the 90's) and theres even some new Shooting Stars hitting our televisions after Christmas. Well that's actually it to be honest, I'm not a huge TV fan but I do love my comedies and there as been a treat of cheerful entertainment on my square box of dreams. 

I'm starting to talk about games and I promised myself I wouldn't in this blog, it's about Christmas and that fat man in a red suit Santa Claus himself. In fact I'm finding it quite hard to talk more about Christmas because what I have to say about it as been said a hundred times over and it would only bore you to death and you don't want that on Christmas Eve. So I'm not totally sure what to discuss in this blog, I'll keep this one short partly because I have to get around to cleaning the aquarium (or 'Super Jungle Underwater Goldfish Resort' as it is also known by). It's the home of my two Shunbunkin Goldfish Bert and Ernie named of course after the fantastic Sesame Street duo. So I have to get around to cleaning the tank, it is a little late to do so but I don't want it to dirty further over the Christmas period so I better get onto that. So for now this one will be short, makes a difference considering once I start writing (or typing whatever you want to call this) I can't usually stop until I have said all I want to say. But I felt it was only right to have a quick blog up before 'that fat man in a red suit' visits all the good boys and girls with presents that were bought from the Woolworth closing down sale.

So finally I wanted to mention that sometime this weekend hopefully I shall be putting up my very special 'TrueEnglishGent's Top Ten Games of 2008' list and I'm looking forward to doing so. I already have my top six set and ready, I shall admit to you dear reader that I'm very pleased with this years list. Especially my Top Game of 2008 which is indeed a special one and a game I suspect will be on many a gamers top ten list. There might even be some surprises in there to, who knows? But as I said, hopefully I'll get around to writing that this Christmas Weekend. I shall also be checking out other GiantBomb Users top ten lists this weekend like I mentioned in my past blog. So please mention them in the comments if you have your own very special list for folks to enjoy viewing. I won't shout out a Happy New Year just yet as I'm sure I'll get around to writing up a new blog before we enter the year 2009 and I'm thinking about taking a look at some of the games that I'm looking forward to when we enter the big 09 (not sure why it's big, just feels like it will be). 

So I leave you with the very special REMI GAILLARD dressed as a Kangaroo (because we all think of Kangeroo's at Christmas Time right??)
