Marvel Cinematic Universe (Not a Tom Hiddleston post...)
Well why not? And I promise it'll have the smallest amount of Tom Hiddleston possible (that is for another blog!)
***DISCLAIMER: I believe I'm right calling it MCU if it has a different name I'd like to know but I'm basically talking about Iron Man, Thor, Captain America and The Avengers***

The Doctors name
So there is a debate going on at the moment about whether we should ever find out what the Doctor is called.
Personally I don't find his name a mystery.

The Evil FIA and their horrible rain tactics....
I love the title of this blog so much I think I should repeat it... In captials, Italic'd and bolded....
THE EVIL FIA AND THEIR HORRIBLE RAIN TACTICS
Yeah I feel special...
Seriously, I couldn't think of a better name, after the "outcry" and stupidity online (well twitter) after the FIA cancelled qualifying for the Australian GP because of rain and poor visibility. I mean it was as pathetic as the name of my blog (a blog complaining about complainers as NoR would say, and no I won't tell you what NoR mean.)
My opinion?
Short and sweet.
The FIA's job is to keep the drivers safe.
Yes these are the best drivers in the world and they should be able to handle tough circumstances but we weren't there. We didn't see properly what the conditions or visibility was like. I've seen "a little bit of rain" on the TV and then seen photos of these "little bits of rain" which don't look at all the same. Not this weekend, I'm talking about other weekends.
I'm the first to get upset when something gets cancelled because of rain, I'll admit that totally, but to be honest I'd much rather the FIA said no and no one got hurt then the FIA said "what the shit let them race" and someone gets hurt.
Some of the people moaning about the FIA cancelling the session would be the first to blame the FIA if people got hurt....
Why am I saying FIA? Isn't it technically the stewards that decide this?
Either way my point still stands.
You can't have it both ways, if I was in charge of the safety of someone else yeah I'd be over cautious especially if that person had a dangerous job to begin with. No amounts of money being paid to anyone would change my opinion on that. It doesn't make the drivers any less of a driver to say they don't want to go out in it, or if they had their mind made up for them. It doesn't make the stewards/FIA bad guys. It means someone gives a shit about someone else's life.
Good on them!
Lets not let that little fact get in the way of The Evil FIA now...

Soul Eater : The Dark Side of the Moon 5 (Manga)
Chapter 108
Last chapter ended with a discussion between Excalibur and Shinigami about Death the Kid becoming a full Shinigami and Shinigami's own fear of death.
This chapter will see Death the Kid going face to face with the Kishin. What will happen?

Soul Eater : A quick catch up
So I haven't actually reviewed any of Soul Eater (I don't think) so I thought I'd write this quick round up of were we are. We only get one chapter a month (ONE CHAPTER!!!!) but I'll still write a review.
***SPOILERS : This blog post will have mega spoilers on the whole of Soul Eater, don't read unless you don't care or have already read it***

My undying support of Rammstein
When I was growing up I was really into music, not any particular type of music, just music in general. I'd spend weekends sat downstairs flicking between all the music channels. There were always a few bands that I totally adored no matter what they did those were Rammstein, Take That and Weezer.
From hard German rock music, to English pop all the way through to American Geek Rock. But it is just proof that I have never really liked a certain genre I've always just liked music.
But the band I'd move the earth for has always been Rammstein.

Whats to come tomorrow...
I said I'll be writing a blog on something important to me and this is it. I will be writing about Rammstein.
That is my copy of Videos 1995-2012 and my background on my laptop is a photo of Christoph Schneider (one of my favorite members of the band.)
They mean a lot to me and tomorrow when I've finished at work I'll try to put their importance into words.
F1 Australia 2013
Grand Prix of Australia 2013
Winner : Kimi Raikkonen
Second : Fernando Alonso
Third : Sebastian Vettel
Qualifying worried me as I thought the race was going to be Red Bulls for the taking, thankfully for me it wasn't to be for the Bulls.
So we begin...

F1 2013 : Drivers (Likes/Dislikes etc)
So I thought I'd write a blog about the whole of the 2013 F1 grid so you know which drivers I like, and which drivers (if your a fan of them) you might want to never read my F1 blogs unless you are made of stronger stuff!
If I do write something REALLY horrible about any driver in a review it is more likely I am just still getting over something more than really being that hateful... Well all expect for Lewis Hamilton!
I will do a Team blog next!
***DISCLAIMER : If I write a name wrong I apologize especially with this blog were it'll have all their names so I don't have the time to keep checking it online. I do get used to names though. When Alguersuari joined F1 I had no idea how to write Alguersuari, now I could do it with my eyes closed... Like this Alguersuari (I really did type that with my eyes closed)****

Fairy Tail : The Shadow That Comes and Goes (Manga)
Chapter 323
So last week the Grand Magic games ended (in my opinion with a whimper) and Fairy Tail was victorious!
What is in store next for our family?

Overtime Chaos!
So as you can see I haven't blogged much recently.
This is because we still don't have a Assistant Manager at work so I am STILL working overtime.
This coupled with the fact that I am still heartbroken that the anime of Fairy Tail is ending at the end of the month has left me feeling like I don't really want to watch the episodes, drag them on forever and it never really got cancelled.
But don't worry I'll try and catch up this week! I'll have a bumper FT Anime blog to make up for the missing episodes as well as the manga review which should be up before I go bed tonight.
Plus the F1 season has just started, just off to catch up on the race on iPlayer and there will be a blog about that too!
And I will be writing a blog on something that means a lot to me as well.
Thanks for continuing to view my blog! Hope I get it up to date as fast as I can!

How does it end?

Table Top War Games
So I think I've touched on it in the past but I am a Hoardes player, I play the Trollblood faction and here is a photo of my trolls...
As you can see I own quite a few, not that many, but I do love them and I do my best to paint them.

Fairy Tail : Laxus v Jura (Manga)
Chapter 321
So last week we were gearing up for the fight between one of the 10 wizard saints Jura, and Fairy Tails strongest Mage Laxus.
Who will win in the battle of strength?
And how are the others fairing in their own battles?

Jules Bianchi in F1!
So if people don't know I am a huge fan of Jules Bianchi and have been for a few years now. During the last test before the season starts it was announced that Bianchi would replace Liuz Razia at Marussia after Razia's sponsors failed to pay up in time.
My opinion?
Well obviously I am very happy for Jules to be given this chance. And again it is obvious I feel sorry for Razia. But I do believe some of the hoohaa by fans have been overblown.
For a start Razia himself was a pay driver, hence being let go because his sponsors didn't pay, so why people are saying Bianchi out bid Razia for the seat I don't know. The only big thing Jules brings with him is a possible Ferrari deal, Ferrari don't tend to have useless drivers in their ranks and Jules has worked in their development scheme for ages.
Personally I don't know much about Razia so I can't say I'm that upset that the driver I support (who I believe deserved the Force India drive more than Adrian Sutil) replaced him. No one can deny that Jules is a solid driver who has just as much potential as any other driver.
I think people are too quick to shout off about pay drivers nowadays, its the new flashy word. They act like pay drivers never existed. Unfortunately pay drivers (and back markers) have always existed and will always exist. And back marker teams like Marussia are always going to use them. Heck it isn't even F1 that pay drivers exist, I've used the example of GP2 and Adam Carroll before. He could never really afford a full GP2 season but when he could afford or was used as a replacement for a few races he was always up on the podium or there abouts even if before then the team looked like a dog!
So I do feel for Razia, of course I do! So close yet so far away. Heartbreaking!
But as a fan of Jules I have to say I'm now more excited then ever!

Keeping Busy
I'm so sorry I haven't been on over the week, at the moment we are very short staffed at work so now I'm working every hour under the sun.
I should be back this week with my reviews on the Fairy Tail manga and anime, though after I've finished watching it there should be a review on Broadchurch the new ITV drama written by Chris Chibnall.
And there will probably be another 50th anniversary Doctor Who rant to boot!
Again sorry and we'll be back in business soon.
