What did the Greeks know about tragedy?!
They should have just tried being me for five minutes 🙁 Ok, so that’s a huge exaggeration. But I’ve not had a good time of it recently with the car, i.e. getting it repaired. The story so far: in late February, someone reversed into the side of my car while it was parked. This buckled

25 Random Thingums
So this has been a “meme” that’s been going round on Facebook like a virus. The idea is that you write 25 random things about yourself, post it as a note, and ‘tag’ a bunch of other people who then go and write a 25 random things note. They then tag people, and so it

More Revision and, erm, Tuesday
So. This weekend hasn’t been too busy – we spent most of the time revising for our Moore Course exam (which is coming up THIS SATURDAY! Scary stuff!) On Friday evening we went to 21, which will be the last time we do it this term. This week we are going to see Mark Watson

New Mix: Classic Trance
I mentioned a month or so ago that I’d bought some new CD Decks. This is my first mix using those decks. I’ve had fun digging through my old CD collection, and this is a result of that. Almost all of the tunes are back from when I was buying CDs (2001 and before), a

Prime the pumps
The random title is an oblique reference to what we were doing yesterday: priming the bathroom! When we had the bathroom knocked through we also had it re-plastered (the paintwork was cracking and coming off in places so it was worth doing). Up until yesterday, the bathroom looked very brown. Now it looks nice and

Pubs, Parties and Gavin & Stacey
Well, this weekend was a fairly eventful one! On Friday evening we were helping out at 21. Fortunately I wasn’t doing the talk this week – I say fortunately because it was a difficult passage! Judges 14. But AJ did a good job despite that and I think everyone had a good time. On Saturday

IEArrrggggghhh
I should probably clarify the title: surprisingly enough, it’s nothing to do with pirates (me hearties). Apparently IE8 is going to be released this week (well, soon). They claim that it has much better (standards-compliant) rendering – that you won’t have to basically break your page in order to make your page work with IE.

Quieter Weekend, for a change!
Well, it was a nice change to have a quieter weekend this time round. Friday night we were out at 21, and I was doing the talk. It went pretty well – I think I’m gradually getting better at doing those talks. Even if I did nick most of the contents out of a commentary

Quick update
Just a quick update of what’s been going on! Friday night: helped out at 21. Saturday: did some shopping, prepared for the evening, and had our next-door-neighbours round for dinner (which went very well actually… we seem to have been lucky so far when having them round to dinner, everything has gone nicely!) Sunday: church
