I really need to do this. love that game. providing you mean proper hockey and none of this dancing on ice malarky

Of course! It's well worth doing, I found a really good club and now not only get to play hockey, but have a new and different group of mates.
 
It's been another mostly crap year to be honest. Too many funerals, huge family bust-up, but on the plus side, my job has become more interesting what with a move into a different capacity.

2012 will be defined for me as when Patrick Moore died, Hurricane Sandy hit, Higgs Boson was discovered (?), and when Felix Baumgartner did that insane jump! Not to mention all the Jimmy Saville stuff coming to light...
 
What 2012 will be remembered for: Olympics, or perhaps Sandy Hook/Aurora shootings also. 100 Year Anniversary of the Titanic sinking - quite a few memorable events this year

Best event of 2012: Can't think, maybe the Paralympics as they got a lot more recognition etc this year compared to before

Worst event of 2012: Sandy Hook shooting/Hurricane Sandy. I'm sure they're are worse events that have occurred in Asia that I don't know of, which is quite ignorant. Also X Factor and James Arthur/Sloth

Most important international moment of 2012: Obama being reelected, world ending in a couple of days (hehe)

Defining song of 2012: Probably Gangnam Style? Not that I like it. I'd say We Are Young is up there too

Defining movie of 2012: Skyfall/Act of Valor/Dark Night Rises/MIB 3 - loads of good movies this year

Personal event of the year: Passing my driving test
