My 100th post

So this is my 100th post. I will use it to explain some random events of my Thursday evening.

LIGHT FM
Got a text around 7:30ish that my mate Matty's song was on a face-ff on Light FM. I did the right thing and tuned in, then sent an sms and voted for him. About 30sec later my phone rang and it was LightFM asking if they could record an interview asking why I voted. I figured why not. I think I came across very well and the offers should start rolling in soon.

THE OFFICE
My buddy Darren has been asking me to give this a go for about 18mths now. With 4 episodes on back-to-back and the wife out of the house, I guess this was my best chance. Actually enjoyed it. It certainly has taken off on a different angle and some of the more random stuff is great eg when Michael shares how he puts on a George Foreman grill in his room before he goes to bed so he can wake up to the smell of cooked bacon or when he talks about getting in trouble for using the company credit card at a magic shop.

ICE-CREAM
Treated myself with a bowl of ice-cream, topped off with "Ice Wonder" (that would be Aldi's version of "Ice Magic"). That is one of my all-time favourite rip-off names ever. Actually one of the best parts of shopping at ALDI is seeing the rip-off names they come up with. I'd like to see them take it up a notch though. Here's some possible ither names for an Ice Magic equiv

Ice Amazing
Ice Far Out
Ice Tricky
Ice Wow
