Forza 3: Return of the Towelie-mobile

Dom lent me his copy of Forza 3 a few weeks back and I’ve had a chance to start playing through its career mode.  TFW readers with long memories might recall that I was quite a big fan of Forza 2 back in 2007.  The game looked great, had a deep career mode and the driving was very accessible.  Best ...

Amanda’s Mexican Birthday Party

Jen and I went to a killer Mexican themed party last night.  It was pretty damn great.  The tequila and margheritas were free flowing all night, almost everyone there was in costume and there was some cool stuff there like sombrero shaped cake, sparklers, a fire-twirling lady and all the aforementioned booze.  It makes me wonder why I haven’t been ...
