Ten things I did yesterday:
1. I walked out of two toilets at work, after seeing that I’d have to sit in a ‘trap’ right next to someone else to do my business. When will people learn that if there are three cubicles in a toilet you sit in one of the end ones, and [...]

New iTunes

Tuesday, June 28th, 2005

Just a quicky … Apple have brought out iTunes Version 4.9 today, as well as an iPod software update as well - all in the aid of it support Podcasting.
You can now use iTunes to go and fetch your favourite radio shows (and the like) and sync them up to your iPod. We knew this [...]

Quirkiness is an option

Monday, June 27th, 2005

Someone said to me yesterday that they thought that my blog “Didn’t contain much personal information”, as it was more just about things I’ve seen and thoughts that I have. So just when I was getting over by blog-freak-out week, I got back to thinking that I was not living up to supposed expectations [...]

Contributor breakdown

Sunday, June 26th, 2005

Early shifts on a weekend ~yawn!~ I had to be at work by 7am this morning, and as train services don’t even start at my local station until after 7am, this means getting a minicab in.
I thought that the age of “Send ‘em back” stereotypical minicab drivers were a thing of the past, but [...]

Time flies by when you’re …

Saturday, June 25th, 2005

Do you know what? I missed the anniversary of my blog the other day. And I forget to mention that it was the longest day of the year too.
Anyway, it was indeed on June 23rd last year that I wrote my first post-50p-iPod blog entry and decided to keep on writing and become properly blogged [...]

All shook up

Friday, June 24th, 2005

And so the sunshine came to and end and the rain came down …! I was out at friends this afternoon on my day off, and driving home this evening I got caught in a traffic jam on the A3, so took to meandering down some winding country lanes instead to get home, only [...]

Less is more. (More or less)

Wednesday, June 22nd, 2005

If only blog pages had a ‘red button’ where you could choose to interact with, in the same way that you can with your digital TV, ‘coz I think then today I’d choose to have a menu which says: ‘Press YELLOW for the short three paragraph - couple of pictures - a few quirky links [...]

Womble Porn

Tuesday, June 21st, 2005

So Hull City it was then - thanks ‘Moley’ - but next time I’m with my four year old nephew, I’m going to teach him the rules for ‘colouring in’ words, start him off on some easy ones, and then give him ‘Hull city’ to do, and see how he struggles. /evil laugh/
So let’s see [...]

Hot Facts

Monday, June 20th, 2005

It’s the start of Wimbledon fortnight folks, which means the tube is going to be heaving everytime I pass through it at Southfields this week. And roll on as well a week of glorious weather, which kicked off on Saturday, and then turned into a 33 degree scorcher yesterday - how good was [...]

Dock of the day

Sunday, June 19th, 2005

Those Apple people are quite smart cookies, aren’t they? You get a nice new shiny iPod Photo at quite a good price, to discover they they only come with a USB cable and the iPod itself. So if you want the AV cables (for displaying the photos on your TV), or the [...]

Bring me sunshine, bring me …

Saturday, June 18th, 2005

Good morning. It’s a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful day.
1. It’s Saturday. Ok, so I haven’t been to work all week anyway due to shifts and my bad back, but there’s still that Saturday morning ‘buzz’ in the air which always feels great.
2. My back is better. So much better that I swung out of bed [...]

CSS: Friend or foe?

Friday, June 17th, 2005

Well I’ve changed the theme of my stylesheet today for the blog. It’s nothing how I want it to look, but as far as I can tell (using both IE and Firefox) it might just make it damn well readable to everyone.
A lot of it is based upon how different browsers ‘cope’ with CSS [...]
