Recently I got a sponsorship email from a mate in Australia for Movember, and always one to help out a mate, I flicked about £20 in his direction. He emailed back and said “Wow?! 50 bucks?! That’s awesome man! Although
2007-11-13 : Flawed figure of speech
Kitchen sink There's some building going on over the road from work, and I was moderately amused at seeing what they'd thrown in the skip today. It wasn't until I'd spent about 20 minutes trying to think of a witty
2007-11-09 : What IS this magical thing that happens at 9am, anyway??

2007-10-23 : It’s a special gift I’ve got.
You would think that, given I work in a reasonably technical field, I might have some sort of aptitude with machinery & gadgets. However as nearly anybody I've ever spoken to will attest, this assertion is nothing short of pure
2007-10-21 : HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
2 trips to Wembley Arena last week. Secondly, to see WWE Raw. Yes, that's right – Professional Wrestling. The plan was initially to go out there with Housemate James and his brother in law, Bodge, as those two probably know
