What a way to celebrate

We have one very excited young man in our household tonight. Tomorrow ten becomes eleven. We had an absolute ball yesterday when we ventured down to Xcite Gaming in Mount Barker for an afternoon of arcade gaming craziness. I rediscovered my old friend Mortal Combat and for the first time ever gave one of those big game hunting games a go. Pumping that plastic hunting rifle I now have "gamer's thumb", a small blister forming from where my thumb rubbed against the plastic gun.

It is great to see a company like Xcite seeming to do well after a big flood went through the shop. The games were great, the food delicious and the staff were so friendly and helpful.

Master Ten, soon to be Eleven had two goes on the Virtual Reality while Darren and I gave Sega Rally a darn good thrashing. I held my own after one disastrous lap, but this time Darren proved to be number one driver.

After this we had the 'pleasure' of a whole bunch of ten and eleven year old boys 'sleeping' over at our house. Very tired now... Looking forward to an early night...
