I only write occasionally here now, as you will see. However, there is an archive of over 2,000 posts which I’ve made over the last 20+ years, which are all still accessible.

Busy!
It’s been a fairly busy week for me! Monday night I didn’t do much – Philippa was out for dinner with some of her work colleagues, and I just stayed in. On Tuesday, we went to steak night with the chaplaincy people (Alex, Chris B, Anne-Marie, Alison and Joan). Afterwards we went round to Alex’s…

DJing…
Quick post… I know I’ve been fairly quiet on the DJing front the past couple of months. Well, fear not. The past couple of weeks I’ve bought a bunch of DnB records. The world hasn’t seen the last of DJ Phill S yet… 😉

The Weekend. And AJAX. Again.
Well, firstly, I suppose I’d better tell you lot what I got up to this weekend. Well. On Friday, it was Philippa’s graduation. We both took the day off and met up with Phil’s parents for her graduation. It was a really good ceremony — I think I enjoyed it more than I did my…

It’s hot!!!
It’s hot. It’s incredibly hot. In fact, it’s record breaking hot. Still, I have managed to survive thus far — and I take comfort in the fact that people in other countries manage to survive higher temperatures 🙂 Anyway. I’ve just watched “Family Guy – Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story.” I have to say I…

Thank Heaven for Air Conditioning!
Today has been an exceedingly hot day. At least, it has been in our office. For some reason our office is particularly warm, which means that it gets uncomfortably hot in this kind of weather. We seriously need some air conditioning in there… I have a feeling I’m not going to get much work done…

POTC2 and, like, stuff
Well, Pirates on Monday evening was pretty good! It was a very enjoyable film, although it finished rather unexpectedly for me (maybe I should read more reviews before I watch films at the cinema… or maybe not). I couldn’t remember much of the first one, but I found it didn’t really hamper my enjoyment of…

The Weekend
So… what have I been up to this weekend? Well, “not a whole lot” is the answer to that question! We’re still sorting things out with the flat, so that is what we’re spending most of our time on at the moment. We now have a new TV Unit and a new bookcase in the…

Goodness and things
As I mentioned a couple of blog posts ago, I had trouble installing Fedora Core 5 earlier this week. What I did instead was wipe my machine and install Ubuntu Linux. I have to say I’ve been very impressed! My wireless card didn’t need any messing around with ndiswrapper… Ubuntu detected it and configured it…

The Weekend
Apologies for the previous rant, your normal blog service is now resumed. So, what have I been up to this weekend? Not much really. Unfortunately at the moment, the heat seems to be affecting my memory! On Friday evening, we went round to Alex and Chris’ new place in Wivenhoe, and then went down with…

Anaconda Sucks 🙁
A few weeks ago, I downloaded Fedora Core 5 and burnt it to a DVD. I finally got round to (trying to) install it yesterday evening. All I can say is, what a freakin’ disappointment. Why oh WHY does Anaconda always seem to crash on me? This has happened now for the past two versions…
