Campaworld News

How's it goin?

It's been a while since I gave you an update on the fun filled wonderland that is Campaworld.

It's been all change here in recent months.

Ivano has taken a job in a very fancy hotel down south, so we very rarely see him around these parts anymore. He is head wine man, and he's loving it. He is lucky enough to get live in accommodation included with the job so that saves a bit of money. He spends 5 days down there and 2 days back here in Campaworld. And usually when he does come back he spends his time cleaning up after me and Althea, and then cooks us dinner.

It's a complex system we have going on here at Campaworld. Althea and Ivano are clearly the parents of the house, they both frequently cook for me and clean up after me. But within that unit there is a sub group. Where Althea and I are pretty much the kids. We forget to put out the bins, we run out of food and don't go to the shop, so we just order take aways. And when we do go to the shop we spend the majority of our money on sweets and crisps.

Whenever Ivano is home we do always have a good laugh and I have documented some of these occasions with my eye phone.

I have included a few of these videos here for your viewing pleasure.

In recent weeks some people have criticised the putting of videos on the blog. Well to those people I say, Fook you! I'll put whatever the hell I want on here. If you don't like it get your own blog.

If you can't see the videos above then you really are missing out, especially the last one in Karova, stop reading this crap on facebook and CLICK HERE

For those of you who have been following the "Ivano watches Star Wars" series of posts, (as if anyone actually has) good news! Ivano as watched all the Star Wars movies now, and on Thursday I shall be writing up his thoughts on Episode II Attack Of The Clones.

It's very exciting.

That's All For Now

Until Next Time

Have A Nice

100 Random Facebook Comments

How's it goin?

I was on Facebook the other day and I noticed something. I had nearly 400 facebook friends. Surely I don't know that many people.

That's mental, mental chicken oriental!

And If I do have 400 friends on this online community, why am I not constantly chatting with them. There are people from all over the world on my friends list. Surely if they are my friends they should be chatting to me all the time due to international time zones. And I to them.

I started having a look at some of these so called friends. Some of them I barely know. People I met once, 8 years ago have added me as a friend. But why? I have nothing to say to these people, nothing against them, but I don't know you.

Sorry.

So I had a bit of a clear out. I got my friends list down to 345 people. And I'm still on the lookout to drop more. If I see an update from someone I don't know or haven't spoken to in over a year, then you are dropped.

Sorry.

But thems the rules.

Still, with 345 friends surely the facebook banter must always be flowing. I decided to put my facebook friends to the test, to see how interesting they were. I challenged my facebook friends to give me 100 random comments. These are those comments. If you are on this list, then you truly are a friend. If you didn't leave me a comment, then you're a bastard!

(Unless of course you weren't on facebook over the 24 hour period I was doing this, in which case sorry for calling you a bastard. You're a lovely person. Is that a new hat? It looks great on you.)

People of Facebook. I want 100 random comments! GO!

Some good comments posted. I can only apologise for Drew who seemed to get quite carried away with the whole thing.

Overall I am impressed at the randomness of my facebook friends.

Plus it made up a blogpost in which I had to write very little.
