still friday

This has been such a looooooong day. Possibly seems like that because the temperature in the office has been gradually going up since I came in at 9. Now the fan sitting on my desk is just blowing warm air at me. Still, I can't bear the thought of stwitching it off - fast moving warm air still beats still air. Was…

p.a.r.t.y.

That's the Edinburgh trip organised and booked. 3 days in our nation's capital city should be fun. Just me, Wez, Scoot (hopefully) and Gary going so looking to be a quieter one than most stag trips. Can't see it being boring though. Now just have to start saving some money and sorting out what we're going to do while…

file sharing

Oh dear. Now there’s a legal precedent that says that software developers are responsible for how end users use their creations. So the writers of eMule are responsible for the actions of people using the software to download copyright music and video. And the makers of DVD Decrypter are now responsible for the…

end of the day

It’s been an utter nightmare of a day at work – doing two people’s jobs in a roasting hot room. Hay fever’s killing me. Nobody to talk to. 8 hours of editing graphics and pasting text and I'm just about to snap. Then a pretty lady gives me a big bottle of Malibu and says 'happy birthday'. And I remember it’s…

stag night mkII

Okay, it was always an intention to have one big stag party for everyone (paintball) and then a bigger one with less people the following week. Main reasons for this is that everyone couldn't afford to do both. So, the plan for part 2 is: 26th - 28th August : Edinburgh Staying at the Globetrotter Inn…

rage against the machine

So, after having the DVD box set of Star Wars since it came out but not yet watched the special features stuff (as I was avoiding anything that might be to do with EpIII) I finally planked myself down to watch Empire of Dreams. Everything was going swimmingly until the 67th minute when the DVD ‘sticks'. So, I tried…

after revenge

Well, seen it twice now and still think it's the best of the Star Wars movies. There's plenty of people seem to be complaining about the dialogue and such and saying that it's nothing compared to the old ones but I've got a feeling they're looking at the old films with quite a bit of nostalgia. I'm sure if Jedi was…
