    the hardest part about blogging is thinking of a title

    Well, last night was the 1st round of the town’s pool singles knockout. I won my game 3-0 so I progress to the next round. I stayed to watch the following match as I will be playing the winner in the next round – he’s very good . I actually played (and beat) him in a league match earlier this season – best of 5 frames will be different though. Spurs travel to Besiktas tonight for their UEFA cup game…we need to get a good start to the group stage – hopefully, that’ll kickstart our premiership campaign too. I’m really […]

    weeee!

    Well, here it is – my new blog . I spent a while getting it to look just right, and transferred all the entries from my page to here…by the time you read this, I should have uploaded all the other pages and files to this webhost (Xetaspace). So last night I went out for a drink and bumped into a friend – I’ll call her ‘Sarah’ to protect her blushes. Here’s what she told me: The previous evening, she’d had too many vodkas and ended up at a party with some other friends. Everyone ended up crashing out and […]

    It gets worse

    I had to edit this to add a tag (I’d forgotten to close the italic bit on yesterday’s rant), so I’ll have a quick blog. I need tea – I have a computer to sort out in 30 minutes… Spurs got an away draw yesterday despite being down to 10 men – Villa missed a penalty…or did Robbo save it? And so the year gets even shittier…my older sister passed away this afternoon, the only plus I can take from this is that dad never saw just how ill she was – nor did anyone else until only recently. I’ll […]

    I’m a blogging fool

    3 days in a row??? am I sick or something? It’s just gone noon (I just got up – gonna be a lazy day today). I got to bed last night after celebrating a friend’s birthday with a considerable amount of alcohol, which usually means I fall straight asleep with no problem, except for the fact a car alarm started going off for 5 seconds or so…EVERY 10 SECONDS. I took this for about 3 minutes, then got some clothes on and went out to investigate. I must have spent 5 minutes or so kicking this damn white van until […]

    TGND

    Well, the curse of the 13th hit work today – the computer used to do the bank transfers for the wages (the only one) refused to boot. Sigh, took me 45 minutes of coaxing and rubbing the secret places only the truly computer savvy know about *grins* before she burst into life. I advised the boss it might soon be time to replace her (the thought of new kit excites me more than it should). Popped over to TGND‘s web page earlier to read up on his latest blogging, seems he’s cracked the England football team problem – see here […]

    Another useless performance

    What a horrible game that was last night – and that’s all I’m saying on the matter. Slow day at work today, so I’ve spent a few hours looking at various means to turn this into a proper indexed blog. The problem is, my ISP uses windoze web servers, so I can’t set file permissions (unix/linux servers allow you to CHMOD anything…). My old Mac really does seem to have died now (was running linux as my home web server) so I’m considering bringing my old Slowpoke back out of retirement – it’s currently running XP surprisingly well for a […]

    England used to be good…

    Well, England didn’t play too well against Macedonia at the weekend – let’s hope they do better against Croatia tonight. What is it with £5 notes nowadays? they’re all looking very manky – old, ripped and generally worn out. It’s bad enough handling money that’s been in the dubiously clean hands of countless others, but they are especially bad. I guess it’s gonna be replaced with a coin soon – probably the size of a dinner plate… I’ve still not got around to writing (or even using a pre made) PHP script to turn this page into a ‘proper’ blog […]
