MoshiMonsters
Aprilia has a new craze. It’s an online game called MoshiMonsters and basically it’s one of these things where you have a "pet" to look after but has a small twist, you have to play "brain training" type games to earn points to buy the food etc for your pet and to move up through the levels. I have to say, it’s very good! Obviously, me being me, we only have the free membership but really, i don’t see much advantage to paying £3 a month for what is just a bit of extra glitz rather than any extra function. She’d play for hours if I would let her, it is very adequately filling that need in me for her to speed up her maths and logic skills by practicing reletively simple stuff against the clock and has given me the mornings to attack the latest TMA. It does ask for age on sign up so I’m assuming the games change and get harder as she gets older, if not well, we move on to something else I suppose!
In other news, Duke is in Holland, feeling a little lost and lonely, being trained on some new laptop or other for a contract his works are tendering for. It will secure the future of the company quite nicely and also give him another string to his bow. We are keeping in touch via Chat on Facebook which is handy, I’m not entirely convinced we didn’t talk more last night than we would on a normal evening which is just a bit wierd!
I had a lovely conversation on the phone with friends yesterday, same friend that was texting me at random hours at the weekend plus his very lovely (and Seriously Blond) wife. We are going to catch up properly on Saturday in Wales which will be fab, really hoping the weather is as good as last weekend as we are meeting at a rest halt on a classic car rally! He’s been cleared on one of the accusations against him and been reinstated on one of the contracts that he lost which isn’t a huge payer but is invaluable on the "old boys network" and for his self esteem. It’s time things started looking up for that boy…
