Ducky ducky duckduck

Well, Matthew has decided that Ducky is the best mode of transport known to mankind and he reckons we should sell the Mazda and use the pennies to buy presents for Ducky. He also thinks that ducky is some form of little boat.

In other news, Animal Crossing arrived yesterday. Tristan, Matthew and I have all been having great fun pottering about planting flowers and doing odd jobs for Tom Nook. It’s a welcome diversion from the life-consuming drama which is Zelda: The Wind Waker. I have an embarrassingly wide shelf full of top Gamecube games that I just don’t have time to play, so I’ve vowed not to buy any more until I’d played them. The problem is, being a boomtown reviewer, I tend to get all the good titles sent to me anyway. Gak!

Debbie was a little, er, unsure about Ducky’s corner turning abilities (being a trike and all) and was letting out nervous squeals at roundabouts, but she soon got the hang of it. Being largely made of plastic with an 850cc bike engine in, the little thing can fairly hurtle along. She’s like Ned but cheap 🙂 For those of you arriving late in the day, Ned was my much beloved Series III Land Rover that I couldn’t afford to run cos it used more petrol than the QE2. Ducky, on the other hand, costs fifteen quid to fill up and gets eighty miles to the gallon 🙂
