Going live

Have gained access to the hallowed ranks of online video game players through the somewhat undignified route of a demo for Battlefield 2: Modern Combat. Multiplayer only, it dumps you straight into a pre-set up map with a lot of other demo players. Quite fun, and I think it's overcome my social phobia of contact with other people - may well hunt down the full game soon. Anyway, for the time being have added my live id to this blog - a somewhat optimstic move assuming that anyone with an xbox live account reads it. Indeed, that anyone reads it al all. Still, takes my mind off the disappointment of local election results.
