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…

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…

On Tuesday, I ordered two Pioneer CDJ-200 DJ decks. I decided that, as I’d been invited to DJ at a few weddings recently, having my own pair of CD decks would be very useful. (At some point I will need to get a PA rig as well). Anyway, they arrived yesterday, so I gave them…

You just can’t believe some people. A couple “The Borings” (yes, that is their surname, rather unfortunately) are trying to sue Google for invading their privacy. They claim that Google Street View drove up their private drive and took pictures – which is an invasion of privacy. This is slightly old news (they had their…

Last week turned out to be pretty busy! I had a pop quiz at work on Monday night, we were out at Anne-Marie’s for pancakes on Tuesday night, we had Moore Course on Wednesday night, and then I was leading home group on Thursday night. So by the time Friday came round we were just…

I’ve just found the IT4Communities website. I think it’s an absolutely fantastic idea: charities can visit the site and submit IT jobs that they need doing. Volunteers who are skilled in IT can browse the site and can, if they feel they can help out with a project, get in touch with the charity. I…

I’ll start with the good news: last week, as I mentioned, we had some work done on our bathroom. That work is now finished! Yay! We still have a couple of things to do, but we don’t need the workmen back in. So the towel rail / radiator, shaver point, extractor fan and plastering is…

Once you have a house, that is it: you’ll have a “To-Do” list as long as your arm for life! (Well, as long as you have a house, anyway). We are currently in the process of having our bathroom fixed up (i.e. the dividing wall between the toilet and bathroom knocked through, new towel rail,…

We had a brilliant time at the Keane gig! Although I was wrong about Katzenjammer – if you search for ‘Katzenjammer Norway’ it will come up with the right band. This video will give you an idea of the kind of thing they do (there are a few more on YouTube as well). They were…

Well, it’s finally here: today is when we are going to see Keane live at the O2! I can’t wait, it’s going to be amazing. The other two live acts on tonight are Katzenjammer and Frankmusik. I hadn’t heard of either of them before, but apparently Katzenjammer are a sort of comedy piano duo and…
