Badminton Owch

Played badminton today, for the first time ever (or at least in a very very long time). After some concern in the run-up, mostly over the possibility of humiliating myself, I think it actually went okay.


The aftermath, however, has been a bit of a drag. Mostly, I have been lying in bed, either asleep or complaining to myself about the considerable aches in my knees/neck/head/etc. Having not taken part in any sport more strenuous than pool for two years, my body was not happy.


This, in turn, meant productivity has been minimal. This blog has been about it. I hope to continue playing badminton on Saturdays, although I will start to resent it if those two hours of activity continue to write off whole days.

Sonic The Hedgehog 4 announced!

Announced today, and provoking my inner child to leap out of his box and shriek, is Sonic The Hedgehog 4. This is a new Sonic game in the style of the old Megadrive classics, with none of this 3D stuff jammed in.


Sonic has reportedly taken to 3D like a cod to a gravel pit for the most part, so this is potentially very good news. It also tempts me to seriously play a video game, which is a rare occurrence. (Seriously, the last proper game I played through was Lego Batman in 2009, and before that you’d have to go back years.)


As a result, I don’t own a games console, so am not sure how I’ll be playing this. But I will find a way. Oh yes. Click on the above link and enjoy the nice trailer.
