bloody insomnia

[ramtops]

Been awake since about 2 a.m. Have now given up, got up and made tea.

To while away the time, over the past couple of hours, I have (in my head):

• Drafted an e-mail to a client explaining why I think we would be better to move them to WordPress


• Tried to work out how we manage the impending web server moves


• Written about three draft postings for Photocena


• Done the next few months' cashflow


• Pondered further about buying a Wii and a Wii Fit - gonna do it


• Started planning a menu for Come Dine with Me, which I might just apply to do

Now the bloody birds are making a racket, and I fear sleep will continue to elude me :(

Well, it would be hard to think of worse value than the television, really.

I'm quite interested in Guitar Hero (she said, quietly) - how much is a second guitar?

In theory, you can buy a second guitar at the time of purchasing the initial game/guitar pack, certainly from larger Game stores, and in theory it's about £40 I believe.

In practise, they are sufficiently hard to find at the moment that you might come to the same conclusion that we did - it's just easier to buy a second copy of the whole thing. It can be found online for about £60 so you end up spending £120 for the 2 games/guitars.

If you can find a second guitar without game, you might save yourself £10-£20 but after a few days of empty promises and dealers taking the mickey (£50 for what sounded like a full-pack with the game disc simply 'removed', from one guy), you might end-up deciding it's not worth the hassle.

The stock levels are apparently getting better, mind you, so they might be easier to find now.

Blimey .. I'll bear it in mind. Cheers.

You can actually play the game with the Wiimote (ie, without a guitar).

I haven't done this, so I don't know how well it actually works in practise. :-)
