Jäger and Paula

We no longer have a puppy we have a MONSTER! Living with and seeing Jäger on a day to day basis I don’t kinda see him growing before my eyes – it’s not until you see photos of him that we’ve taken over the short period in which we’ve had him do I realise the interesting transformation he’s gone through (and still going through). When we brought him back from Preston he fit quite easily into the cat-carry box for the journey back home. Now, only after a few months, he would only be able to fit in his front legs into the same box. The strangest thing about it is that he eats 600 grams of food a day and shits like there’s no tomorrow yet he grows soooo quickly. He’s exiting the awkward teenager-esq phase now which is good, because his ears were like radar dishes (see photo taken in July below) and his legs were all gangley and almost looked like he’d stolen them from another dog…

Brand new run = We have built a block paved area for them with a proper pond!

New duck aivery with block paving and pond.

We still need to put them away at night because they are too noisy in the early hours to leave out, especially when it’s a hot weekend night and all the neighbors have their windows open and the ducks have woken at 0600 on a Sunday and are quacking their head off because they are shagging in the pond….

Paula and Jäger

Obviously Jäger is in addition to the eight ducks and the cat we already have. I’m just wondering at which point our home will no longer classify as house and instead becomes a farm.

Monster Duck Egg

One of the ducks laid a crazy huge egg, it weighed 164g with two yolks. See Paula holding it next to a normal one in the photo below, she was also the one that took great pleasure in cooking it and eating it for herself.As

Why are their English language skills so bad? Is it an in-joke I’m missing, that coders only ever speak in Ingrish?

The general view by most critics and the media is that this is one of the best games of the decade – how wrong could the critics be. Admittedly the online game-play is damn good, there are over ten different on-line modes so when you compare it to the benchmark of online first person shooters that is Counter-Strike there is quite a lot of bang for your buck. Unlike it’s rival MW2 doesn’t have that balance that CS posses. Admittedly everything looks amazing graphically but most new games do (I have Far Cry and that made me sit back and go wow) and tbh better graphics don’t make a game superb. Single player is waaay too short and the plot is pretty shit if you ask me but the level design is beautiful and easily makes up for this. I think this game has only shifted so many units because of the media hype (and media coverage owing partly to the infamous airport scene where you annihilate a departure-lounge chock-full of innocent and unarmed public with a fully automatic machine gun). Although these games are great because it’s nice when everyone has owned a particular game or at least played it:- Everyone loves making references to their favourite pop thing be it quoting Anchorman  jokes or making in-jokes about Star-Wars and I don’t think computer games should be any less referenced in popular culture. It’s also good that everyone knows how to play a game like that, e.g. I went over to my cousin Matthew’s house and we just jumped in to a co-op game on the PS3 together. Even Paula has got to grips with the game – her favourite level being the co-op level based on the snow level with sniper rifles and silencers – this in itself is a true testament towards the game if she wants to pick the game up again to repeat play. Ok, so maybe my mind’s been changed by the end of writing this. It’s still hardly a revolutionary game, it doesn’t bring anything new to the field of FPS so I’d give it a 9/10.

On Sunday the 8th Novemeber 2009 I went on one knee and asked Paula to be mine forever. We now have a date set as the 24th September 2010
