Well, the internet went back to normal speed about an hour after I wrote that last post. I still don’t know why it didn’t work, but at least it seems to be working OK now (although when I get back home, I’ll probably find that it’s broken again). Just noticed something random… it appears that…

Ok, I am not happy with the internet at the moment. Not the internet in general, just the internet at home. I am currently downloading something at the whopping great speed of 2.79K/s. This is on 2Mb (megabit, not megabyte, in case you were wondering) broadband. Add onto that the fact that the internet was…

Ok, so, what did I get up to this weekend? Let me try and remember… on Friday evening, Philippa and I went to the Rover’s Tye and met up with Sarah, Jon, Naomi, Luke, Sarah, Matthew, Simon and Kerry as Naomi was up for the weekend. That was a good evening, actually – it was…

Well, I finally sent my e-mail of resignation to Zeth (managing editor of Crossring) yesterday. It was a sad moment, and one that marks the end of an era. I joined Crossring a few years ago as the web assistant, and have been looking after the site ever since! I think one of the main…

And, once again, another “The Weekend” post! Excellent! I haven’t been up to much this weekend, actually. On Friday evening, Philippa came round and we borrowed one of Paul’s DVDs: “Collateral”. It was a pretty good film, quite an unusual role for Tom Cruise but it seemed to work well. Unusual film, but worth watching.…

I work in the country, in that – the place I work is right out in the sticks. Most of the roads on the way there are main roads, but there is one small but not insignificant stretch of road which is a “proper” country road: there are a few points along the road where…

Well well well, three holes in the ground… there’s a new version of the excellent Firefox Browser out (version 1.5). It looks like it’s got some nice new features, seems a bit smoother. It’s obvious they put a lot of thought into the design – when I updated, it picked up that one extension I…

Sometimes I wonder why I read the Bible. Now, don’t get me wrong, I definitely thing it’s a Good ThingTM to do, but… well, sometimes it’s a bit heavy going. I feel I’m doing it more out of routine than anything else. But then, I come across something that restores my confidence – and more!…

So, what did I get up to this weekend? On Friday evening, I went into Wivenhoe with Alex for a drink at the Black Buoy. It was quite nice actually – the pub was nice and warm, good to go into on a cold evening! Good to catch up with Alex as well, as I…

I’ve done a new mix 🙂 Starts off with some funkier breaks and gets into some more upbeat / nu-skool stuff at the end. The name, incidentally, is an in-joke from the DJ Source forums! TRACKLIST 01. Sprocket – Kickflip 02. Aquasky & Meat Katie – Overneath 03. Pablo Beatz – Hot 04. Transformer Man…
