You know you know a series or game too well when...

Walking down Chedder Gorge yesturday, enjoying the natural beauty of the area with my brother, mum and Aunt Marie, I found myself eyeing up the many different dragon statuettes in the many gift shops along the gorge. (For those who don't know, if it's a dragon, I want it)

A huge redy pink one caught my eye, though I'm out of money, wings outspread, it's tails wrapped around the rock it was perched on, looking to the skies as if awaiting another dragon, or maybe prey. I have to assume it's wings were designed to display earings and other such jewelery, as the grace and beauty of the piece was detracted from by red wire mesh wings. (Not the one in the pic)

(And please, with wings as fragile as wire mesh, it'd never take off.)

Any way, next to the dragon that I really, really, wanted, (not enough reallys) was a huge yellow gem, probably glass as it was only £7.99, but when I saw it, my first thought was.

"That's a Chaos Emerald!"

Sonic the Hedgehog fanatic much?

It's not the first time either.

I've seen red and blue gems cut the same way, and the same size as the yellow one I saw yesturday, and now my brother is convinced that the Chaos Emeralds have come to Earth.


LOST! ONE BLUE TALKING SUPERSONIC HEDGEHOG. IF FOUND PLEASE RETURN TO MY FLAT.

Anyway, I guess the point of this blog is to bring up how certain things from games and TV shows get lodged in your head.

Now, where's my Sonic hat?
