So I have taken a bit of a direction change to something I feel more comfortable with and I’ll be starting my new job in Fareham on Tuesday. Rather excited to start, I went in a few days ago to meet the guys (and gals) there, they all seem pretty cool, so hopefully I’ll fit right in.

I went airsofting at UCAP for the first time in ages on Wednesday, it was nice to play again, except I did get utterly sprayed when a guy came round the corner all guns blazing… I now have a bruise on my chin, but it’s covered by my big beard. Matt was down there also for the first time in even longer, but thats because he’s got a little one to worry about! Congratulations to him and whatnot.

Signing out now, ta ta for now.

I’m sitting in the Deco on my new laptop, well not really new, and it’s not really mine, it’s Hannahs, but it’s mine now. As some of you will probably know I’m ridiculously poor due to work messing up my pay, but after several telephone calls I’ve managed to sort it out, but I’m not gonna get paid til next month. So I’m really poor this month, really really poor. Hannah should be moving in soon which will be awesome, but the money problem is really dragging me down at the moment. I can’t even afford to go Airsofting which is like my favouritest hobby ever (apart from being with Hannah :P ). Hopefully I’ll have money next Wednesday so I can go to UCAP, but I don’t hold out much hope for now.

So this is something I’ve been ranting to a lot of folks about – my new gun. Above you will see the beautiful pictures I took all by myself.

The gun is a Classic Army M15A4 (based on the M4A1) R.I.S. Carbine. I have attached a Red/Green aimpoint dot sight, and a G&P tactical light. The PEQ box has a big battery which I like. I ‘ve not had it chrono’d yet, but it should be under 330fps. In addition, I have 6 mid-cap magazines (130 each) and the hi-cap that came with the gun itself. I also have a spangly (dis)charger which works in my car as well as plugged into a wall.

I’m very proud of it. I’ll be using it at UCAP tonight. Thermal barracks night!

Oh – and on a side note – is that how you spell Thermal barracks? I’ve seen it as “Thermo-barracks”, “thermo-baraks” and whatnot, so I just wondered what the actual name is.

So feeling much happier these days. Getting very tired though as many late nights playing Guitar Hero 2 (geeky, I know, but it’s so addictive). Plus went airsofting at UCAP (under Fort Widley) on sunday with Hannah and Mark and Doug and Matt and Jim, which was a lot of fun, and reminded me how ace it is and how much I’m looking forward to going up to Durham to go to NCS. Well good, innit!

Should be rather aceness I think… I expect to see all the MEN there, anyone who isn’t going will be officially labelled a girl.
