Well, it turns out that WordPress v2.0 has been released! Excellent. I upgraded to it just now, it took about half an hour. You probably won’t notice much difference in general, although I do apologise if anyone finds anything on the site that’s broken because of it! Anyway. If you’re a WordPress user — check…

Just a quick update to say I’m safely back home! I got back home yesterday (Saturday, it’s still yesterday as I haven’t gone to bed yet). I got a new battery for my car, as well as some new windscreen wipers. The good news is that the windscreen wipers are now fitted. The bad news…

I just want to say – apologies for the lack of updates over Christmas! I’ve been rather busy the past few days, as you can probably tell. Here’s a quick overview: on Saturday afternoon, I travelled back to Ipswich to my parents’ house. My sister arrived that evening, as well as one of our “longest…

I did a DnB mix for a bit of a laugh today – I don’t usually mix DnB, but I thought I’d do a mix just so that people who are into it could have a bit of a laugh at my mixing! So here it is… enjoy! TRACKLIST 01. Basement Jaxx – Good Luck…

I went to see King Kong last night. It wasn’t bad, but … well, I just had the feeling that they could have effectively reduced the length by about a half without missing much. Not that the thing was slow-moving, just that some of the scenes were drawn out a lot. Ok, so the special…

It was the office Christmas party last night! It came in the form of a meal down at the Peacock Inn in Chelsworth (a fairly remote location about ten minutes drive away from where we work). Philippa and I went together. It was good to have a meal with everybody – and it was a…

Well, yesterday was the winter equinox — the shortest day of the year! It’s all upwards for the next six months: it should gradually start getting lighter and lighter! Although we still have to put up with January and February (February in particular being one of the most depressing months of the year), at least…

Last night I went out for dinner with a whole bunch of people. Philippa’s sister Roz is staying for a couple of days, and Phil wanted her to meet some of our friends so invited a few people out for dinner. We all went down to the Playhouse (steak night!). Anne-Marie, Phil, Roz and I…

Ok, so, what did I get up to this weekend? In brief: on Friday evening, I went to see “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” at the cinema with Sarah & Jon and Philippa. On Saturday, in the morning I went into town to get my hair cut, and then in the afternoon lazed…

I read an interesting article the other day when I was browsing around the homepage of Fetchmail, and came across the essays section of the site. It’s about open-source software and security, using the computer game Quake as an example. It’s a very interesting read, if you’re into that kind of thing. Here’s a quote:…
