Simpsons, Puppets, And Alcohol
Sat up last night with Bryn and Claire with a cheap bottle of wine and the remains of an expensive bottle of whiskey and watched The Simpsons (Season 3, DVD 2) and Puppets Who Kill (Season 1, the episodes we hadn't seen yet).

Str8Up, Fluxx, Liz’s Birthday, Etc.
Went to Str8Up at the Students Union on Monday night with Bryn, Claire and Paul.

SmartRacer
Yesterday lunchtime I finished writing a program that suddenly makes our working day that little bit more exciting - SmartRacer.
SmartRacer runs quietly in the system tray of as many users want to run it - currently Matt, Haagen, Gareth and me... but I'm trying to get Alex involved, too.
