Cookie and Rossa.. at last

No they haven’t come out as Londons most fantastical gay couple they’ve finally bought.. A PLANE! I can’t really write too much about it because I don’t know a lot about them but I do know that it looks like the fucking mutts nuts!! Apparently it’s a turbo and it’s already got the nickname GBUM. [...]

Three Peaks Yacht Race

Paulo is doing the Thee Peaks Yacht Race this weekend and I thought it might be fun to follow him. Click the image below to go to the live map. I believe he’s boat 12 aka “Moby J”. What happens is they sail a boat from Wales to Scotland and en-route climb Snowdon, Scafell Pike [...]

BNP Get Euro Seat

It’s a self fulfilling prophecy. Can’t help but feel that the press constantly piping on about how “disillusioned voters” are going to “vote BNP in protest” made some of them do it. I hope that this will make people use their votes.. although I have a feeling it might take even more to wake most [...]

Boris Takes a Dip

Boris was out today doing some kind of pond cleaning – great stuff I’m sure but it kind of got overshadowed when he suddenly found himself a bit deeper than he expected. Classic borris-o-billia coming up courtesy of BBC News. A fine quote from him at the end of the video too – it’s been [...]

The Start of the Summer

Yeah yeah count your chickens I know but it’s fair enough to say that the last two weekends have been fucking wickedly sunny. I really really hope that the weather keeps this up, I reckon there might be a few people staying at home trying to save a few quid this summer if it does. [...]

The Weekend

DESPITE being on-call this weekend it was nice to have one spent entirely in London with no tasks to complete or events to attend. I’m quite happy bumbling around the flat doing a bit of washing or something equally mundane – it wouldn’t suit all the time of course, but occasionally it’s nice. I even [...]

New Speakers Purchased!

I’ve finally got round to sorting my shit out and I have completed a new setup at home. Some speakers came up on Gumtree last night so I went out to Stepney Green and picked them up. A second handset of KRK Rokit RP5 (G2) – they’re almost brand new! Touch of class. They sound [...]

Valambtines Day Massacre!

If you remember some time towards the end of last year Jen and I went down to River Cottage for the weekend. It was brilliant as I reported at the time and we had the added bonus of winning the best prize in a raffle we’d been automatically entered into, a whole lamb! You can [...]

Switch Uptime

I was recently reminded of this uptime discovered at work a few months back when we were doing an audit. pr-cache-cat3524 uptime is 5 years, 6 weeks, 3 days, 1 hour, 18 minute That’s five years just sat in a rack, switching packets. Simply just working. No reboots, no fucking about just going for it. [...]

Boris says Fooey to the Credit Crunch

I’ve just been reminded of this which I fell-across on new years eve whilst I was looking for NYE activities, it’s a classic piece of boris-o-billia (click it). New Years Eve was very good and consisted of a stroll down to livebait for a delicious fish dish with Jen then a walk up to Waterloo [...]
