Picnic Time
We're off on a picnic! Bryn, Claire, Paul and I are making sandwiches and we're off up Pen Dinas to scoff them and watch the sunset. Which is nice.
It feels like springtime. -
Dissertation Poster Session Two
The second poster session for my dissertation is today. This will involve me standing in front of a board in the Llandinam concourse with some pretty pictures and explaining them to people.
This also brings home the realisation that my dissertation needs to be handed in in just a month's time. Still got many, many thousand … -
Dan, A Vamp Babe, And A Tarantula

PHP 5 RC1
Terribly geeky I know, but I find it awfully exciting: PHP 5 Release Candidate 1 was released today. PHP 5 can now be considered feature-complete, and mostly stable. If only the program I'm writing with it could be considered the same...

Snow! Again!
It's snowing! Again!
Apparently it's going to get as low as -7ºC on Sunday. And some fool has a BBQ-on-the-beach planned.
Will post more when I find the motivation. -

Work, Work, Work…
...but at least I made some progress today. Heaps of work done. Good stuff.
Plus, managed to squeeze in some research that I'll need for later in the week.
And, better yet, my colleague Phill left his mobile at the office tonight, so I've reprogrammed his operator logo from it's old one (the O2 logo) to a … -
Congratulations, Paul - It’s A Beautiful… Kitten

The Internet Is A World Of Ends
Got a spare quarter hour? I think you should go and read WorldOfEnds.com. It's a fascinating and concise analysis of what is the nature of internet, and why why should stop making mistakes with it.

Went to Booker Cash & Carry this afternoon, and bought just over 3kg of Sherbert Lemons and a little less of … -

From Monday, the entire restaurant will become No Smoking (yay!), and the old upstairs toilets - once closed owing to vandalism - have been re-opened. Claire and I were in there this evening, discussing our …
