Chris's Birthday in the City.
Well today I had to get up at 8am (!) and go get some cash out for the bus to the city, because today was the day where Chris graced the world with his presence. So I managed to get a Child ticket to the city and met up with Chris half way there, we got to the city, had a quick stop off in KoC and then headed up to the Metro where we bumped into Chris's friend Clare.
Off to the Metro we continued, we managed to get there in one piece and met up with everyone else and head to the French Pancake place.
Here's what Chris got......
Yummy! So me and Chris had 3 pancakes and we were going to have a contest but being students we don't have enough money. After the pancakes we went up to the arcade and I rocked out on Guitar Hero for a bit....
And I nailed 3 songs on expert and got the high scores :D
And that's pretty much it for now. I shall speak to you peeps laters.
Cheers, Tom
Starting up again....

Contest Help: Stlye
Got a question the other day, (Blink answered it). I thought it would help everyone.
"What do you mean style? Like skater, emo, goth? Can you explain? I don't get it."
"'Style' could be defined by a lot of things. Check out: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/style
That will give you an idea on the sort of things we are looking for.
Style can be defined by each person in a different way, but what I would bethinking of would be more of your style of magic.
If you take this as Cards/Coin/Close Up. Or take it to the next level withmore details such as 'Smooth' 'Fire' 'Vanish' etc.
Its up to you on how you take 'Style' and part of the contest will bejudged on the style. But the main part, is upon the context of the video(The actual video) lol.
Cheers for the email, and feel free to ask any more questions througheither email, or the site!"
Well, I hope that helps. Again, if you have any more question, feel free to email me, comment on my blog, or contact Blink through www.themagicreview.com
Remember, deadline is May 31st.
Cheers, Tom
