Return to Normality (or a close approximation thereof)
Ok, sorted out the card issue, gave mum the envelopes and she got some card for me, as well as getting herself an A2 portfolio from Argos (which, to my delight, contained some canvases which she gave to me, and also a rubbish brush I can use to glue up the elite). A very profitable excursion.

I'm a berk
As the title says. I'm a complete and utter berk.
Why, you may ask?
Went down the town, got the obligatory Pokemon cards, and two packs of card, 20 sheets per pack. Get home, fiddle around with the elite bits until I can fit them on 48 pages (I had 8 left over from the Banshee) then open up the first packet of card, wondering why the end of the back sheet seems to be folded over.
And then I look at the label on the packet.
"10 WHITE ENVELOPES C4 - TAKES A4 PAPER"
Argh argh argh.
Luckily, mum's going to take the envelopes off me and buy me some card tomorrow when we go into the city.

Wire it up, pick it up, measure it up
In science today they had us wiring up 3-pin plugs, as well as testing resistance. Boy, did sparks fly down one end. O.O And then they made us take them apart again.
In other news, just now I picked up my final Halo 3 Skull (Grunt Birthday Party!) which means I now have my Hayabusa helmet for Xbox Live. :D
Also under Halo, I'm still trying to work out how many sheets my 1m tall Grunt will take up. Before tomorrow, when I'll hopefully get the money to buy the card.

Thoughts on Card
Those people who know me will know that some time ago I made a 1-metre tall Halo Elite from card. The final result was a shambles; I had nothing to weigh the legs down with and the masking tape holding the arms, legs and head onto the torso fell apart.
So I'm thinking on taking on a Grunt instead. ^^
