Good Stuff
Well; everything's going notably well this last day or two: Naruto Night I, our new weekly Thursday Night anime night, went off well: only Paul, JTA, Claire and I were able to make it, but that's pretty much the number we got to the first ever Troma Night, and look what a success that turned …

Naruto Night
Okay, okay, so I took my time to look at and get into Naruto, a most fantastic anime series. Thanks to Rory and Gareth for showing me the movie, and Paul for providing episodes.
We'll now be having a weekly "Naruto Night" (to go alongside Tuesday's "Knightmare Night", Friday's "Geek Night", and Saturday's "Troma Night"), on … -
HSBC Account
HSBC have closed my bank account with them: a bank account I'd had with them since they were Midland Bank, back when I was still in high school. I hadn't used it for, well - anything at all - for the last 9 months or so, and didn't know it had been closed (they'd never …

Knightmare Night
Who's up for a Knightmare Night tomorrow, 8pm: first half of season 5?
Have more to say, but can't be arsed. -
Finished Psychonauts
I've just finished Psychonauts, so I can have my life back. It's a surprisingly good third-person platform/shooter/RPG from for the X-Box and PC, from some of the minds of people who made Full Throttle and Grim Fandango.

Knightmare - Season 5
Thank you UKNova. Knightmare season 5 has just made an appearance online, and the torrent is downloading at a pleasant 48KB/s. That'll do.
Whoever's in town is welcome to a Knightmare Night on Tuesday. -
Dan And Alex
People have been asking me if these comics are actually related to my co-worker, Alex. Of course the answer is no: I would never say anything so unflattering about such a great and able worker as Alex, nor would I ever call him RetardBoy. And obviously these comics aren't based on actual events: it would … -
Goodbye Andy And Sian
Goodbye to Andy and Sian, who are leaving Aber tomorrow-ish. We've had ups and downs, we've seen some great times, and I'll miss you both. Good luck in whatever you choose to do, and I hope to see you again sometime soon.
Ruth makes similar sentiment in a more general manner. Sian pines over Aberystwyth … -

Boing.

CNPS
Consecutive Number Plate Spotting is a very, very silly game.
And now Claire is doing it. And I'm betting that there'll be others we know who'll want to try to beat her at it (I'm looking at you, Paul - there's a number 1 parked on Bridge Street).
This could get very, very silly.
