  • Visitor number 20,000 should pass

    Visitor number 20,000 should pass through today. If it is you (look in the navbar to see), please say hello.

  • Beer tonight with Paul F,

    Beer tonight with Paul F, Aris, Arron and the delightful Simone, an evening replete with blue jokes. Arf.
    And in other news … well, there is other news.

  • Beer tonight with Arron, Nick,

    Beer tonight with Arron, Nick, Helen, Steve, Claudette, Michelle, Matt and Clive. Quiet in the pub, as many of the regulars will have been at the last night of the Ale and Jazz festival thingy.
    And after last night’s shenanigans (I may tell you about it one day) I’m absolutely knackered. Plus a long day at work. But I’m in a good mood.

  • This morning, I am wandering

    This morning, I am wandering aimlessly around the flat, muttering “ooooooooh miiiiiiiiiiii god” over and over.
    So it was a good night, as you can imagine. The Ale and Jazz was somewhat lacking in jazz (it was tribute band night, featuring the Strolling Bones and Utter Madness – so it was rock followed by ska – not a note of jazz was played all night) but made up for that by offering plenty of ale, which was supplemented by a bottle of wine when we got back here (we being me, Brenda, Greg and the lovely Donna – also seen in action were Sarah, Andy, Fi, Alison, Matt, Rachel, Tanya – oh *EVERYBODY* was there!).
    A mighty hangover is evident. And I have to go to work shortly. guh.

  • My horoscope has me in

    My horoscope has me in stitches this morning:

    Your attractiveness is turning heads all over the place. It really doesn’t matter if you are dressed to kill or donning a potato sack. Something about you is glowing under the Taurus Moon, and even your worst enemy cannot fight off a smile for very long. While you could use this power to manipulate people and stake a claim in something that you know you neither really need nor deserve, you could also use the limelight to spread good will. You will do the right, you know — just as you usually do.

  • Marketers are becoming less popular

    Marketers are becoming less popular by the day. Particularly in the techie community.

  • Hurrah! The wonderful Brenda has

    Hurrah! The wonderful Brenda has fixed me up with a ticket for tonight’s Real Ale and Jazz Festival in Priory Park – just when I had pretty much given up hope of getting one.
    She’s a star. Full report later.

  • EvilDuvet II was using all

    EvilDuvet II was using all her powers this morning. Or maybe it was last night’s beers.

    Beer tonight with Aris, Arron, Paul F, Nick and Anne. Also seen were Paul S, Simone, Claudette and Joel.
