It wasn't Minecraft 8.0, But 1.8. My Latest Update.

So my last Minecraft post had a faux par in it, i had titled it 8,0, it should have been 1.8.

Either way i've made progress with my latest building project and have been mining like a demon and found my first rabbit, now since i'm not someone who reads supporting documentation, i'm not sure what a rabbit will do, i suppose if i kill it, it will give me rabbit meat or something?

So here is a few screenshots of what i've been upto:

Minecraft 8.0

I think it's fair to say that i still haven't got the hang of keeping my original map when a new update comes out for Minecraft and to be honest i can't see anything different, although the 8 update is supposed to be the big one.

The only thing i have noticed is that the way to craft some items has changed, but i do like the new fences and doors in the colours of the type of wood your using, i haven't seen any rabbits yet!

One thing i have noticed is that every time i load up my map, the achievements are not saving, so everytime i open my inventory it keeps giving me the achievement and my stats aren't saving properly.

Anyway here is some screenshots of my latest creation in Minecraft:

I do miss the mods from 1.6.4, but plain old Minecraft is still as fun!!

Bronies, Yes I Watched The Documentary!

So where do you start with this one?

I like documentaries, i like seeing a different side to society and what makes us as humans tick, but i think this one was a little bit far out for me, but seems to show the very nature of society and how us as humans need others to basically survive.

The documentary is about adults that like a children's TV show called My Little Pony. To say the least, of the people being interviewed in the documentary there was a couple who shared this interest.

I did at first think this was a little perverse that adults who don't have children want to watch a TV show aimed at children and some of them actually buy the toys and one person in the documentary had been beaten up by locals in his town for this.

I could have understood if they were students smashed off their faces with alcohol and pot, but these were regular people and there was even US Military personnel who were into this stuff.

I say each to their own and really these people don't hurt anyone, not that i'm aware of, but it's an interesting look into how the Internet influences our daily lives, it's also a look into the future and if you wanted to give a hypothesis, would we have countries or groups in the future?

How long will it be before the Bronies want tax breaks on pony merchandise?

The documentary was ok i guess, not something i'm into, but a good insight into how as a species we've become attached to things, which is even more dangerous.

Willerby & Kirk Ella Last Wednesday

It's always a joy to visit Willerby & Kirk Ella, a lovely reception by local residents and was as always made to feel very welcome.

 I hadn't been to Willerby or Kirk Ella for several months due to to people passing away and i'm not a funeral type of person and made my apologies for not attending, but i had been receiving several emails from friends who live in Kirk Ella to come and visit and once i had crossed the threshold into Kirk Ella and into the Beech Tree Pub for lunch it was lovely, i had the feeling i was expected and it was a lot of fun, a bit of a giggle and a laugh with people.

 The main reason for visiting Willerby was the empty shops near to the square, in Beverley we had managed to fill vacant shops and these particular shops had been vacant for some time and would make a great starter business for anyone, in Willerby you get the best of both worlds, you can be catering for all or market yourself at the high end for luxury items for those living in Kirk Ella and West Ella.

I did take the bus from Hull to Willerby and was so glad i did, i do actually know Willerby, but £4 all day travel with EYMS (East Yorkshire Motor Services) was more appealing and it was fun, but from the bus i saw things i would have missed, like how ERYC (East Riding of Yorkshire Council) makes repairs to footpaths, When i visited Norwood in Beverley i saw the same thing, the council doesn't patch, it seems to roll out a new path completely, which although i'm in the East Riding a lot i had never really noticed it too much.

It was also a joy to see what i would call pretty much zero litter, there was the odd piece here and there, but nothing too much.

Starr Inn, Main Street

The Bus journey was a joy, EYMS staff really are the best at times, very knowledgeable and i did get told off for not knowing key locations, but it's all fun, i just don't know every bus route that the company has to offer.

Since i visited Willerby i have no excuse not to attend Haltemprice Central Events, which i want to attend anyway, but i haven't attended all that many recently.

Willerby Square

Although it rained at times during the visit, the rain did clear up when i was out in the open and it brought a smile to my face, my friends who had passed on must have been smiling down or something, it was most certainly a weird weather pattern.

As alway pampered and spoilt, still a very lovely outing.
