Bit of a long shot but does anyone still play City of Heroes? I had a sudden hankering for 2004 so I had a look and it's just as I remember it, pretty one note in terms of what you need to do and the environment, but the hero customisation options are still fun. Seems like it's reasonably active online.

Hope you're ok, Cosmo.

I thought that got shut down yonks back. Sure I remember seeing people having an in-game 'farewell party' of sorts when the servers were being turned off.

Got to go to Coroners court today for an inquest. Its fairly straightforward but its the first time I've been called so I'm a little apprehensive.

Well done, Denster. That can be a tough thing to do.

Thanks. Yeah it can be very difficult. First time I've ever had to go. With my new role now - it's more likely now. Sadly.

I think it continued unofficially and then earlier this year some sort of officially licensed deal was made so it's legit now. I'm enjoying dipping back in. Cba with learning new games, give me the warm comforting soup of something I played relentlessly in my mid twenties and barely have to engage my brain with when playing now (see also Civ V).

Laughing at this story of loose horses running around London, and the BBC live coverage of it.

Although the image of a pale horse covered in blood running loose through the streets of the capital does feel like some kind of terrible omen.

Probably the horse's own given they seem to have done in the windows on several vehicles, including a double decker tour bus.

I seem to have an incredibly sore throat, it's like someone has narrowed it and if I don't drink a 1000 liters a day it became sore as anything. I'm waking up in the night with it being sore so many times so I'm not sleeping great. :cry:

I don't feel to bad the rest of me but I'm feeling a little worst compared to yesterday, might just spend the day in bed resting up.
