The Wii Has Landed

2007-10-26

So, today was the day. In a rash moment of parental materialism I agreed with my son Ben that if he could raise half of the cost of a Wii, I would provide the second half. Never have I seen a boy work, save, plan so hard. Finally the day has come, we nipped out to town at lunchtime to pick one up - having reserved it by phone, such is the Wii demand.

Ben’s nipped out, otherwise I would no doubt be on the thing right now - but it has already taken pride of place next to the telly in the front room.

Bowling, anyone?
