I have stolen this jewel from AJ's blog crown

Trivial Pursuit - Is there one thing you don't know that a blogger could answer for you?
What do people see in Hoodies? And why do some people pierce their baby's ears?

Connect Four - Are there three (non-blog) friends you couldn't live without?
No. I like my friends but if I had to live without them, I would.

I nearly started up a wedding planning service with a mate.

Cluedo - How suspicious are you of people?
A bit. I trust people to a degree but tend to still be reserved.

Moving sown from the South West to Hastings was a big risk considering what we were leaving behind

Barry Scott, That frosties ad, the Sheila's wheels ad and people who think they are always right just because they have an opinion and take the piss out of people who have different views than them!

Operation - What's been your worst injury?
Just an appendix op. Unfortunatley it happened in my fourth year of Uni just before my finals!

Chess - Which do you trust more, head or heart?
Both. But I go with my heart more because my head sometimes gets bogged down with decision making

Game of Life - What one thing would you like to do in life?
Be a home owner

This is my 900th post. I wanted to make a really big gesture, perhaps form a 900 club, but then I see there is already a 900club and I don't want to be a part of that!!!!!!

SO I looked up 900 in wikipedia and here is what it says about the year 900.

Persian scientist, Rhazes, distinguished smallpox from measles in the course of his writings. Holding against any sort of orthodoxy, particularly Aristotle's physics, he maintained "the conception of an 'absolute' time, regarded by him as a never-ending flow".
Gyeonhwon formally establishes the kingdom of Hubaekje in southwestern Korea.
Merchants from southwest Asia and India settle on the east-African coast, trading gold, beads and metal for ivory and slaves.
Harold I of the Yngling or Scilfing dynasty subdues the petty kings of Norway and conquers the Orkney and Shetland islands.

I wonder what it would have been like if there were blogs back then....... {Cue the wavy effects}

Rhazes' blog:
When I was fiddling about with smallpox the other day I noticed something. I won't go into too much detail but I noticed there were more blobby bits around the edges of Smallpox than there is around measles. Hmmm, that is interesting, I wonder if I should tell anyone?
I have also been thinking about time. Not that I'm dissing Aristotle or anything (I think his Blog is brilliant) but I do think that time is more like a never-ending flow. What do you think? Leave a comment below

Harolds Yngling and Scilfing blog:
I went back to Norway yesterday. Those kings are really getting on my nerves! They keep calling us Dingaling and Scaffolding dynasties. Resorting to name calling is SOOO Petty! I'll show them! Now where did they keep the Orkneys?

There you go. Now you can't say that my little void isn't edutainment!

When I was a youngster, on a hot summers day, my dad used to take me to the local lido. This was an outside swimming pool. It used to get very busy but it was great. Ten years later the whole thing had closed down.
DO outside swimming pools exist anymore?
When we moved to Romford I used to go to the Dolphin swimming pool. It was always very exciting but it had a wave machine. I used to sit on the pretend sand dune and let the waves knock me about. I'm not even sure if that swimming pool is there any more.
Does anyone go to swimming pools for leisure anymore? I dint mean normal swimming pools with lanes and that look like they mean business, but lesiure pools with wave machines and silly slides and sun loungers by the side.
