    Cold weather is no fun…

    …Especially when you DON’T get ‘snow days’ off work, AND there’s no heater in the car. Poor me (send sympathy to my email address, it’ll make a change from viagra alternatives and Nigerian 419 scams…). I’m just not used to shaving anymore. It’s because I had the bet with Andy before xmas that I couldn’t go until the end of the year without shaving. 3 weeks later, I was itchy, but happily covered in facial fuzz (very warm too). I shaved it all off, then grew another beard, then shaved that off…now I have another beard. I honestly forget to […]

    I only just caught up with the B3ta beard grow-off competition:

    I came third apparently! 🙂 Woo…check it all out here. Best comment about it: Third place: Snee – for having the sort of reassuring beard that I’d want with me on any kind of camping/survival weekend as it would provide a nice rugged presence.

Wait! where’s my medal anyway?

Bleah. Spurs held Man Utd. to a draw on Saturday and moved up to 14th in the league until Newcastle went above us on goal difference. Never mind, we’ve taken points off the ‘top 4’ now – […]

    Double glazing? why of course I'm interested…

    For some obscure reason, our main office is based in a steel security box (plays havoc with cellphone reception). Now, as we had a t’interweb dialup connection in the days before broadband, we also have a second phone line. One of my biggest pleasures during a dull day at work is to pick up this phone when it rings – 9 times out of 10 it’s a double glazing salesman or such like 🙂 “Why yes, I’d LOVE you to come and measure me up (fnar, fnar) for double glazing/conservatory…” My boss calls it evil – I call it fun.
