Argh, once again it is that time of year when all the soppy sickly sweet let’s make everyone else reach for a bucket couples get all mushy and proclaim how much they love each other. Bleh. 🙂 Following the usual turn of events, I have received no cards and sent no cards, making a net […]

For those of you who don’t know, I spent the best part of yesterday preparing for Julian and Sally’s wedding. I had to set off for Bury first thing in the morning because, being the muppet that I am, I had left my suit at my house at home. It was a three hour round […]

After another phone call to TNT this morning, they arranged to deliver my package between 2pm and 5pm this afternoon, and even rang me to say it was on its way. From the sounds of it the address label had come off the package so perhaps it was delivered to the wrong place yesterday. Then […]

I was expecting a package to arrive today, courtesy of TNT Logistics. Their package tracker system said it had departed the depot this morning at 9:04am, on route for my house. Seeing as I have a day off on Thursdays anyway, this was perfect as it meant I’d definitely be in when it arrived. However, […]

The computer science department at university has been unreachable all this weekend, so I’ve not managed to get a single piece of lab work done as all the files and applications I need are located on the department’s machines. No-one has been able to login since Friday evening by the sounds of it, which means […]

You can blame Kate for this. 🙂 Hopefully my answers won’t involve tickling at Warped on Monday… 1. Reception teacher’s name: Mrs Hunt 2. Last person you kissed: can’t remember 3. Last word you said: Damn 4. Last song you sang: You’ve Got The Music In You—New Radicals 5. Last person you hugged: probably Jennie […]

This is currently doing the rounds on my LiveJournal friends list: If you read this, even if I don’t speak to you often, please post a memory of me. It can be anything you want, it can be good or bad, just so long as it happened. Then post this to your journal. Remember, anyone […]

I can’t believe this has crept up on me so quickly, but it’s that time of year again when I have to start looking for somewhere to live for the next academic year. I was planning to stay at my current abode, but that’s no longer an option because someone is moving out and the […]

A group of us from Warped (Cez, David, Kate, Lizzy, Ed, Rachel and I) went to see Team America last night—for free as well because Rachel works at The Filmworks. 🙂 Reactions to the film were a bit mixed, I got the feeling that most people didn’t find it all that brilliant. On the other […]

After spending half the afternoon debugging what turned out to be two very simple problems (a PHP parse error and a MySQL “wrong field name” mistake), I’ve finally managed to implement incoming trackback support on my blog. For those of you who don’t blog or who don’t get excited by new ways of doing things, […]
