Found this in a sort of roundabout fashion via Fury.com whilst reading up on AJAX. I am currently single – Yes I am currently suffering from a broken heart – Not that I’m aware of I am embarrassed to be seen with my mother or father – Not particularly, so long as they don’t say/do […]
Four down, one to go
Quick catchup on what’s been happening recently, mostly exams unfortunately: Software engineering Didn’t do too badly in this one, there was a nice question about change control using CVS and unit testing which was worth about 15 marks, so I think I’ll have done quite well on that one. The other question in that section […]
Dutch also reject constitution
Just three days after the surprise result in France, the people of the Netherlands have also decided to show the proposed EU Constitution the door, by an even bigger vote of about 63% against based on a turnout of about 62% (slightly lower than that of France). The result is perhaps less surprising than the […]
France shows constitution the door
French voters reject EU charter via BBC News Although there have been rumours and polls going round for several weeks that the French might say ‘non’ to the proposed EU Constitution, I was surprised this evening to hear that the exit polls were predicting a 55% vote against the proposals and now after 85% of […]
Stressed out
Quite a few people have mentioned that I seem pretty stressed out and unrelaxed (if there is such a word) recently, so I guess I’d better explain why: House Still haven’t found a house for next year, there don’t seem to be any two bedroom flats anywhere in Manchester, and the few that are available […]
Return of the Sith
I’m guessing pretty much everyone who reads my blog and is going to see episode three of Star Wars has already done so. For those of you who haven’t, I’ll try and avoid too many spoilers, although I’m sure you know the basic storyline anyway. 🙂 As most people will know, I’ve been to see […]
Book meme
Seeing as Cez tagged me and I’m not one to spoil the fun (feel free to fill this in via the comments if you don’t have a blog): 1. Total number of books I own: Far far too many. I honestly couldn’t count them all. Suffice to say I have at least 200 Doctor Who […]
Six things about you (answers)
Seeing as I got a rather larger (and much faster—all in one day nearly!) response to Something about you than I expected, I’ve decided to put the answers in a separate post. If I haven’t mentioned you yet put a comment here or in the previous post and I’ll update the entry. Here goes… (in […]
Something about you
This is currently doing the rounds on LiveJournal and often produces interesting results so here goes (feel free to ignore if you don’t like these meme things): Reply and I’ll write something about you. I will then tell you what song/movie reminds me of you. I will say something that only makes sense to you […]
Frog and Bucket
Last night was a change from the usual proceedings regarding Warped, instead of going to the Burlington we headed to the Frog and Bucket on Oldham Street. Every Monday they have a comedy night in which amateur comedians get five minutes in which to impress the audience with their jokes. Three members of the audience […]
