Rule Number One: When committing a burglary, DO NOT sign your name at the scene of the crime… See this article for more info.

This weekend was quite a busy one! On Friday afternoon, Andy C gave me a ring to say that he was in town for his sister’s wedding, so in the evening Philippa and I met up with Andy and his girlfriend (Rika, I hope that’s how you spell it!) and went for a few drinks…

On my web hosting package, I’ve got a stats program which lets me know what search terms people are using to find this website. Some of them are fairly understandable. Some of them are just bizarre! Here’s a selection: facebook uploader torchwood scripts (remember, I have no torchwood scripts…) extreme canoeing christian song lyrics changing…

The IT Crowd is back! Last Friday night, Alex came round for dinner and afterwards we all watched the first episode of the second series of “The IT Crowd”. It was absolutely fantastic – we laughed a lot during the episode! The second half was particularly good… Anyway, if you liked the original series of…

Well, all my photos have now been transferred to Flickr — if you want to see them you have to visit my Flickr page. I have to say, in comparison with Yahoo! Photos it’s much better… it’s a really well thought-out interface, with plenty of features. The next step is to see about getting some…

I’ve been having a bizarre problem with Apache recently. On the Fordham Church website, we use the MODx Content Management System.

Last weekend, Matthew and Ellie gave us a “Wasgij”. This is basically a jigsaw, except that the picture you have to make is a “what happened next” of the picture on the front box. In our case, the front of the box had a picture on it with two secret agents about to be run…

I’ve used Yahoo! Photos to store pictures for a while now. Any photos taken on our camera would get uploaded there. Unfortunately, Yahoo! Photos is closing. Which means that I haven’t uploaded any pictures there recently… I have been uploading photos to Facebook, but the problem with Facebook is that you can’t download the original…

Someone sent me an email today saying that they were interested in purchasing textlink advertising here. Their email address was apparently from mymasterweb.com (I won’t give a direct link to it for reasons which I shall attempt to explain). Anyway, I didn’t really know what to think (no-one’s ever contacted me wishing to buy advertising…
