24-Apr-2010 - Jagex Presents... RuneFest 2010
So you get less than 0.05% of the hours you'd get if you bought RS membership with the £75 for the same price? Doubt I'll be going now if it remains that price :P

21-April-10 Slayer Challenges
Theoretically, there will be a higher supply of these fish since people don't have to run so far...but I don't see demand increasing much. Possibly a small reduction in price, however I doubt they'll drastically change.

That is not my Donkey.
So this morning saw the trip to the Yorkshire Wildlife park, an hour's road trip there and an hour back. Me being me, I awoke at 6:30 thinking we'd leave nice and early, before having to wait until 11:30 till the engine started and we had set off. Spent the journey with my headphones in pretending I was an awesome singer in my own little mind wowing the crowds...sad I know but it gives me some joy <3: . Pulling into the car park, we were greeted with a first view of the recurring theme of our day; disappointment. Driving along at 12:30 or so, people were already coming away from the park driving past us. Either it was shut, or they'd gotten up early/hadn't stayed for long. Fortunately, the latter was to be true and we parked up in what seemed like a building site. It had only been open for a year, and they were building a large lion enclosure next to the car park. Having stepped over many bricks and badly done paving, we entered the park. £30. For three people, 2 adult and one student, £30. It wouldn't have been that bad, if the park wasn't a complete farm! We were offered half price on our next return, and reluctantly accepted...from what we'd seen so far, I doubt we'd be coming back any time soon. So, we took our tickets and walked into the park, to be met by a pair of girl's pink nickers on the wooden post. I didn't ask, gulped and continued on. Now, usually I wouldn't say judge a book by it's cover...however this was an exception. I would describe it as a petting zoo without the petting :P . We first stepped into the cafe to grab some Lunch, which was actually rather impressive for the state of the rest of it. Having nommed our way to being willing to give the park a second chance from our first impressions, we made our way to the first enclosure. Now, normally cows don't really wow me, but this was different. I mean, cows...WHO OPENS A ZOO AND HAS A COW PEN AS THEIR FIRST ENCLOSURE?! Quickly walking on, unattracted by the methane machines, we found the first "exotic" animals, the meerkat pen. There were about 5 or 6 in the colony, and being able to lean on the wooden enclosure and see them right by your feet on the other side was rather enjoyable. We came right in time to miss the talk, and waited for the crowd to disperse by paying the linking enclosure some attention. "Racoon Dogs" the sign read, and when I saw the animals, they were indeed a weird breed of racoon dog. I had never seen such a specimen before in my life, and doubt I will ever again, however this was one of the more enjoyable sights of the day. Once the crowd had dispersed from the meerkat area, we spent some time watching the meerkats go about their work, digging for no apparent reason and having 2 of the meerkats on Sentry Duty, I wondered why in a year the meerkats hadn't realised there were no predators coming any time soon. The next enclosure told me why. Now, I apologise if I offend anyone reading if they've had a nasty chicken mishap before, but the closure across from the meerkats was incredibly laughable. Before me, a wooden fence, mesh gate and a third metal wall divided me from the dangerous chickens I could see inside. I mean...without even mentioning chickens as an attraction in a "zoo", I find it ridiculous how I could practically pick up a meerkat and put it in my pocket, then be totally kept out of bounds of the evil chickens. Either the meerkats were scared, or in disbelief it seemed. We then proceeded down a long path, with enclosures surrounding us. In them, yet more farm animals. A pond with geese, ducks and some pidgeons (I still can't work out if they were part of the attraction since it was so bad), some goats and a donkey enclosure were on show. I spent some time with a Donkey that looked about as depressed as I did at the zoo, whom I called Graham. After ten minutes or so, A man came with his children to the donkey enclosure, looked at the other donkey and said "That is not my Donkey", then proceded to walk on. Erm...? So, having assumed he became delusional from the high price of the low quality attraction, I walked into what I thought would be very exciting; the Wallaby Walkabout. It did what it said on the tin, offered visitors a chance to walk in the Wallaby enclosure and get up close and personal with the Aussie immigrants. So you can imagine my disappointment when we were told to stick to the path, and the Wallaby's came nowhere near. Disappointed, I left and headed into Lemur Wood. I do have to say, this was an excellent experience. In Berlin Zoo, i'd seen a similar thing, a chance to walk about with Lemurs and have them very close to you, and this is what I got. Infact, a Lemur came up to my leg and even gave me a hug! If anything good can be salvaged from this trip, it was a Lemur hug <3: . Anyway, I spent most of my time in there, watching them climb the trees and scare children out of their knickers (which explained my first encounter). Anyhow; I met some more animals that didn't really wow me, like pigs and some Horses. Other animals included Wild Dogs (Who were getting it on), Camels (Who were at the very back, unnoticed), Eagles (Who were chained down, unable to fly ;_;) and Zebras. Having spent only 2 hours around the attraction, we packed up and headed for the exit. However, we stumbled across an "Animal Talk" show, which we stopped to watch. That was really enjoyable, i've never touched a snake before...and there was a cute pair of Ferrets named Frankie and Benny <3: . So, today's trip? Not as good as I expected, however was fun taking the mickey out of it all the time with my family and seeing some of the nicer things x) . Fresh air and Road trips ftw <3.

Time for a Dust and Shuffle
Having restumbled on the Blog section of the site, I have decided to re-start blog entries in dire hope of some food for thought for others <3: So, i'm sat watching The SImpsons at 2:44am having tried and failed at the process of Sleep. Having been able to link up the old VCR player to my Video and DVD combi in my room, i've recently regressed to a 5 year old state and started going through a load of old tapes. So far; The Lion King, Scooby Doo, Mulan and The Full Monty have remet my gaze after 10 long years of Captivity in the depths of my Bedroom. Don't ask about the last video, it was an odd night. I managed to spend a good three or so hours undoing a ball of string before tying myself a maze on the ground floor, much like a lazer field in Museum robbery scenes that night. And yes, I did manage to return to my room after realising I would have to conquer the very Labyrinth I constructed...after a few falls and knocks <3: I have also spent my nights flinging fish. Yes, flinging fish. I have found the relatively new update rather enjoyable, and thinking after every game that this will be my last, before an hour and a half later seeing myself waiting for the next fisherman to take me to the competition <3: . Currently, 16 minutes until the next game. I've become somewhat masterful of it, heading to empty-ish worlds to master the art of 100%-ing...and so far have been rather succesful, coming first on Busy worlds with an average score of around 43k, taking the maximum 17,650 xp every game and 2 medals. 2 more games by the by until I have the second tackle box. I absolutely LOVE this Activity, and I wish fishing was much more like this with baits and weights...it does remind me of when I used to go fishing myself <3: . It has spurred me on to train fishing for my first 99, currently at 87! A long journey ahead, but worth it in the end. Anyhow, tomorrow brings the first outing for this Easter holiday, heading to the Yorkshire Wildlife Park! Closest thing we here have to a zoo, but hey [garden tool], should be fun! Hoping I can find a camera in time before we set off, I have a secret yearning to picture animals <3: Hopefully by then will be able to collect my Tackle box and continue on the road to 99 fishing <3: Until tomorrow! ~Omni

[Dev Blogs] A History of Non-Violence & A Day in the Life - 12-Feb-10
Agreed with Den, didn't get the idea of Shattered Hearts apart from that you'll get random things in your inventory, which I wouldn't be a fan of losing an inventory space when fishing :s.

your 2009-2010 holiday plans
As a Brit I believe in a traditional family christmas at home without going to somewhere like the Bahamas. Especially with the recent snow, you come to realise Christmas just isn't christmas somewhere on a beach. :P

Holiday Events
They don't give you the quest cape for signing up for the same reason they don't give you a holiday REWARD for turning up. If you want an item, earn it :P .
-
Christmas Event
Yep; you need to put on the ghost mask, top and bottoms...so your head torso and bottoms items will be gone. Also, it doesn't let you go upstairs to see Scourge when you're wearing a cape, forcing you to take it off to complete the event.

Mint cakes?
They're a rare reward from Gnome restaurant minigame, and I think you can get one from the gnome near the Warped Swamp spirit tree, but ONLY once. That's probably why.
