Trick or Tit?

Tuesday, October 31st, 2006

Ok so I wasn’t going to mention it again but are we completely obsessed with acting like Americans? Are we going to lose the ability to take jokes and understand sarcasm reduced to a bunch of over weight citizens complaining about the respect of people not completely brain washed by corporations? Anyway.. Halloween.. I mean [...]

Hamachi, VNC and world wide domination.

Monday, October 30th, 2006

Some of you may have heard me mention Hamachi a few times and even played with it too, well I like to have a few get out clauses when it comes to installations and remote support. So I normally install a VPN server router at most sites allowing me to gain access to machines onsite. [...]

Explosives

Sunday, October 29th, 2006

Hmm.. Started today with a soak in the bath and some nibbles before heading out to pickup one rather large explosive… This years firework night has the great benefit of a large firework which has been custom made for us, sadly this meant taking the van to go pick it up. Sods law I took [...]

Guitar Hero 2 looks like it’s going to be great, although the demo I grabbed doesn’t like my Slasher Guitar and refused to work right, maybe because it’s a demo though? Anyway watched a film called “Click” which is I’m sure a remake of some older film that has been twisted to make it seem [...]

Kung-Fu Fighting.

Friday, October 27th, 2006

So last night popped round to Jaspers and had a spot of full contact Guitar Hero, this involves nudging the other player while trying to beat their score whilst playing. I did quiet well with Jasper not managing to beat me at all (shame on you). Anyway today I spent a lot of time trying [...]

Wednesday, October 25th, 2006

Had the people round this morning looking at the kitchen to check on how it’s going, seems they are going to bodge the shower by sticking some crap tape around the bottom. Angel sent them an email detailing the tiles needed for the floor and we now have the following info to hand – Electrics [...]

Mailshots, again..

Tuesday, October 24th, 2006

Ok so I have decided to do another mail shot and today spent a few hours gaining access to a couple of databases with companies in the area, nothing amazing about it I just used my head and a little latterial thinking to aquire said information The last mailshot I did only managed a half [...]

Sunday, October 22nd, 2006

Well what did I get up to today then.. You see I had plans and they revolved around doing a set number of things.. In the end I managed to sort out a special something and put in a telephone point downstairs. I watched F1 and saw one of the best races ever and even [...]
