Intriguingly, after my last post I got 6 or 7 emails from people saying “But didn't you have BACKUPS ?”… I think the obvious answer is that if I had backups I wouldn't be nearly as cranked off ! As
2004-12-05 : Awwwww HELL-diddly-ding-dong-CRAP !
Now there's a bit of an anticlimax – I WAS going to write about all the funky stuff that's been going on lately – new job, Motorhead gig last week, seeing The Producers on Wednesday night… But then something has
2004-12-03 : Ladies and gentle-eggs, a bit of silliness.
Apols for the lack of blogtivity lately… gonna write something on the weekend. I started to write something yesterday but before I saved it I accidentally kicked the power cable under the desk and my screen went blank. Dammit. ANYWAY…
2004-11-28 : Wow, they didn’t even chase me out of the building this time !
Had my last day at Reuters yesterday – was a bit weird… excited that I'll be starting my new job on Monday, but at the same time I'm gonna miss the 8th floor gang. I'm not going to miss the
2004-11-26 : 1st Nerdiversary !
It just occurred to me last night as I uploaded all my recent photos over a tediously slow dialup connection (grr ! Goddamn BT!) that I've been doing this website thing for a fair while now… Using my keen observational
2004-11-25 : Angels in the architecture. Behind all the scaff, that is.

2004-11-22 : BT: acronym for “Buncha Tossers”, or “Barely Talented” ?
I just got back from a really cool weekend in Milan, and will write plenty o' stuff about that later (once I've divested the camera of its photographic payload), however I thought I'd chronicle the next gripping instalment of the
2004-11-18 : WHAT IS IT WITH THIS STUPID BLOODY COUNTRY !?
Is there no end in sight ? Yesterday when I got home I found that my broadband connection had dropped off, which was a bit weird, but anyway… I tried reconnecting, and it just wouldn't go. My attempt to call
2004-11-16 : Don’t let the fact it’s bollocks get in the way of saying it.
I've been concerned for a little while now that “functionality” isn't really a word – I always thought “functions” or “features” were more succinct and sounded less like someone trying to talk up what they were doing… out of curiosity
2004-11-16 : You wouldn’t get far calling it “The Penultimate Countdown”
It turns out my analogy of a musical feast was quite accurate, with tonight's performance admirably making up the cheese part of the meal. I turned up at the Hammersmith Apollo – the same venue I'd seen Billy Connolly at
