Now I've started this blog and got some positive feedback from people I know in real life, I'm dying to post yet more about a new, exciting, adventure that I've had, wanting to jump on the "James is cool at writing stuff" bandwagon. Unfortunately, nothing much has happened.

The potential for adventure only seems to occur during the day time, as that's when I'm at school, socialising, casually swearing and acting all elitist. In the evening I spend night after night, searching, looking for an answer. It's the question that drives me (etc), "why is IT coursework so lengthly, boring and tedious?".

In school, the most exciting thing that has been happening has probably been the continuing saga of my coke intake. It got to the stage yesterday when there was effectively a hostage taking, with my friends all working against me to prevent me from drinking any more of the lovely searing acid. It was resolved in the end after careful negotiations and the bell for the end of lunch going. This said, I have been good this week- sticking to 1 coke per day for the past three days.

The other exciting revelation this week has been local (former) MP Edward Garnier, who came into promote himself in a bid to get re-elected. We discovered that out-arguing a socially liberal Tory MP is actually more difficult than arguing against a deluded lunatic fringe party who have no grasp of the real world. We challenged him on all sorts, the mental economic policy, fox hunting, but he responded quite reasonably. The problem with being socially liberal is that we couldn't get him on Conservative racism in regard to gypsies and foreigners. Vaguely interestingly, Garnier is the shadow Attorney General, so if William "14 Pints" Hague had rigged the 2001 election, it could well have been Garnier going "it's illegal.. oh, alright, it's a bit legal then".

Fingers crossed I'll have another big adventure soon, so stay tuned.
