My brain hurts!


Have you played Brain Training on the Nintendo DS? It's a video game for old people and if you give TV's Chris Tarrant money he'll say he likes it.

But that's not saying much, just watch this video for evidence that Chris Tarrant will say anything for money.

Did you hear the song at the end there? "Good old Bertie Bassett, He's Britian's greatest asset". Why ever did they stop using that I wonder? It's pretty catchy!

Anyway, enough Chris - back to this:
We got it on Monday and boy oh boy it is an experience. It’s supposed to make you better at remembering things (my need for this was evident at Youth Alpha on Friday when I forgot my own name TWICE!) but really it’s just brought out the competitive side in Park_2002 and me. Take it from me, she DOES NOT LIKE TO LOOSE ;-)


After three days her estimated ‘Brain Age’ is 24, and I.... apparently I have the brain of a 60 year old.
But get this, on Monday my first brain age score was 41, so not only am I am now officially a bit thick, I have actually got thicker as the week went on. Thanks Nintendo!
