  Another wasted weekend...

  Hi, How is everyone at tv.com?
  
  Life is never simple is it.... I was looking forward to spending some quality time on this site over the last week - I had some reviews and submissions that I wanted to write, as well as spending more time on the forum, but I never have seemed to have got round to it.
  
  My granparents came over to stay for a long weekend, which is nice, but does take up alot of time. I have also purchased a new car, so I have been running around trying to get tax, insurance and all other things needed so that I can finally have a social life again, instead of spendinmg all my time in bus queues, which in this freezing weather is not at all pleasent!! To top of my week of frustration, my boss has decided to move the sales and marketing offices around, so all spare time that I didn't have, has gone to rearranging furniture.... some things are just not meant to be!
  
  So what to report.... well, to be honest, nothing. I have not managed to write a single review, a single submission or even a post. Infact, writting this blog is the first time since last week that I have managed to spend more than 10 minutes on this site. I do however hope to make amends this week - oh yes, I have plans
  
  I took delivery on saturday of the X-Files complete DVD collection. I did decide to take the plunge after all... I am now trying to work out when, and if I'll have time to watch it! What are your favorite DVD's that you own, or do you prefere to watch films and TV series "live".
  
  Well, that's about it from me I'm afraid. I hope you all had a great weekend (what did you get up too), and hopefully I will see alot more of you this week.
  
  Cheers for stopping bye, draskers

  Hello, Level updates and DVD temptations....

  Hello everbody, how are you all?
  
  Things are going OK "ish" for me... I have had a nice couple of days writing show reviews and posting in the forum (I made my 100th post yesterday ) I am still on level 6 and 84% which is the same as I was on Monday night - I am not sure whether the site didn't update me or whether I haven't contributed enough the last couple of days. O well, let's see what happens with tonights update before moaning too much! I also see they have fixed the "edit profile" pop up page, which is great becasue I am now classed as a male again which is cool.
  
  I have been trying to decide if I should spend some of my cash this week on a new X-files box set which has been released in the UK. It looks pretty good because it has every episode in it and loads of extras. The only thing missing is the film that they did. I am tempted to buy it as I don't have any X-files DVD's and I have never seen all the episodes - especially in the correct order... the thing that's giving me second thoughts is the price. It costs £140 which I think is about $245 - and it's close to Christmas What would you do... Is it worth it???
  
  Other than that, there hasn't been much going on to report about I'm afraid. I suppose I could say the weather is freezing and I haven't even started my Christmas shopping yet, but then I would feel like I'm waffling on about nothing, so I'll leave it here
  
  Hope everbody is well and happy, and I will see you again in a day or so. Bye

  Lazy weekends...

  How is everyone, I trust you have all had a nice relaxing weekend and are now looking forward to returning to work / school !!!
  
  I have had a good one... I did not have to go out anywhere so have managed to watch some DVD's and TV... it's nice to watch "Out Of Africa" followed by Tru Calling and a bit of Millennium, it adds a bit a variety to the day
  
  I have not been on the site much this weekend, as I was not sure whether it would be updated or not, but this gave me time to make a banner (what do you think?). I have also added a personal picture of my pet Retriever who's nicknames "Snot"!
  
  The other good news is that I have now had my first 2 submissions accepted and that has elevated me to level 6
  
  Other than that, there's not much to report I'm afraid, as I say, it was just a nice lazy weekend which I really enjoyed.
  
  Well, that's all from me at the moment... better get back to work and try and make a living!! Bye
