Times tickin on
Temporary temptation
I succumbed to my bi-annual demon today.
Having popped into town to do some truly glamorous shopping* and get a hair cut, I was in need of sustenance and ran into an age old enemy when it comes to luncheon … indecision.
Well I could pop into one of the million sandwich shops that litter St Helier [...]
6 – 0 … against
Well last night was an unmitigated petanque disaster.
Some of you may recall my opinion of the Pierson Road Terrain. I tend to use words like “nightmare” and “geometrically impossible” when describing it. Well Pierson road was the scene of last night’s massacre.
6-0 against.
I suppose I can take some solace from the first doubles. We did [...]
Too busy to type
No really. You wouldn’t believe how busy life has become of late. It seems like every waking minute is spent working on some project or another and for every piece of work that drops of the radar another is waiting in the sidelines to jump on.
In fact I’m so busy that I didn’t notice ITV [...]
Can you tell what it is yet?
All those observent people (and those you do more than just read the RSS feed) will have noticed that something has changed around here …
And that something is more fundamental than just a new template (it’s called Kubrick by the way and was designed by this guy).
Yup in my on-going quest to use as many [...]
No more trackbacks
Damn these spammers to hell and back.
I hadn’t realised that Trackbacks weren’t working last week due to a change in the config. So yesterday I fixed the config, tested the trackbacks and was content that everything was working…
It took 4 hours for the first wave of trackback spam to come through … 4 stinking [...]
Adobe / Macromedia – my predictions
Well it seems that every man and his dog has waded in on this one so I figure I should throw in my $0.2.
My initial reaction was one of shock and awe. The primary tools that I use on an hourly basis are Photoshop and Dreamweaver and the notion of increased interaction between the two [...]
The biggest and best just got bigger … and better?
Via Matt comes this surprising anouncement.
Adobe are to aquire Macromedia …
for $3.4 beeelion
Wow!
The link to the Adobe site is hosed at the minute but there is more out there
Update
The official release from Adobe is in the extended entry…
Because the world really needed a singing Egyptian crocodile from Germany …
It never ceases to amaze me, the sheer quantity of pap music that comes out of Europe. By Europe I mean pretty much everywhere but the UK which is still hanging on (just about) to a proud musical heritage that brought the world The Beatles, The Stones, The Who, The Cliff Richard … erm … [...]
Things I learnt this weekend
That I can mow the lawn in under 20 minutes if it looks like it will hiss down at any minute
I don’t like loud people all of the time
It is perfectly possible for two people to savage £30 worth of Chinese takeaway without even breaking a sweat
Pak Choi in oyster sauce is the best veg [...]
