    Well it would have were you there. I hope.

    Sunday came and went and left me with the greatest buzz I think I've ever felt. I'm loving this comedy lark. I was terrified of the performance right up until the end of my first …

  • Open Mic Night

    As I'd promised, I went along to the Ground Zero open mic night at The Angel tonight - and it was a most spectacular night. Matt was MC, and did a wonderful series of gags and skits to liven up the crowd and fill the gaps between the performers. Unusually, all the acts were of …

  • The Knights Of Gaerog

    Chapter I: The Knights Of Gaerog

    Once upon a time, long ago, there was a large and sprawling kingdom with a great number of citizens, spread across a country of rolling hills and open flatland: the kingdom of Academia. The kingdom of Academia, which had for a long time been untroubled by war or famine, dedicated …

  • A Bad Slogan Put To Good Use

    My apologies to those of you to whom this means nothing.

    Things look better in the light of a new day. I suppose that means something on several levels.

    Desktop wallpapers and high-quality versions of the image above are available here. [update: link very dead]

    Thanks for listening.

  • Paul Is The Most Fucking Random Person In The World

    Paul M: fucking nutter. The most random person you're ever likely to meet. But you've got to love his sincerity.

    This morning, I'm happily sat at my workstation, staring, as I do, at program code and pausing from time to time to check the RSS feeds of the usual crew, when the phone rings: Matt answers …

  • Tsunami Relief Concert

    On Saturday night, Claire and I went to the Tsunami Relief concert at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, which was pretty fab. We arrived at about 3:15pm, just as things were starting to kick off - on one of the many park and ride services being operated especially for the event. The buses and their …

  • A Merry Little Christmas

    All in all, that was a fantastic little Christmas Day - less disasters, fights, fires or cats-eating-decorations than a typical Christmas with my family, but no less fun for it.

    Our landlords, who run the cafe below our flat, were kind enough to lend us use of their kitchen over the festive period (mmm... catering-grade cooking …

  • A Great Wedding Was Had By All

    Bryn, Paul, Claire and I went to Kit and Fiona's wedding this weekend. Despite the hideously long drive (almost 11 hours, with driver/navigator pairs driving and sleeping in shifts in order to maintain progress) throughout Friday night - and the equally long journey back on Sunday, it was a most fantastic and memorable experience.

    The event …

    One Thousand, Two Thousand, Three Thousand… Check Canopy!

    Wow: a most memorable weekend. As you'll remember, I spent the last weekend on a crash-course in parachuting in Lancashire. Having spent plenty of time in light aircraft or coasting around in a paraglider, I thought I had it sized: but it turned out to be even more spectacular (and scary) than I could have …

  • Letters After My Name

    Results day today, and so I finally get to find out whether or not I get a degree in exchange for my last five years at University. And I do. I'm now entitled to put letters after my name, which is nice.

    I've got a lower second, which is (I know) less than I'm capable of, …
