Pirates of the Caribbean is ace

Well worth going to see, and Warner Village Islington was a great place to see it. Apart from the bloke sat next to me, who stank. Seats were big, plenty of space, very comfortable.Johnny Depp is great as Captain Jack Sparrow, he apparently based his...

Two Towers was ace again

Diet is still going well, mostly, apart from five pints yesterday. Went to The Queens on Regents Park Road, and The Lock Tavern on Chalk Farm Road and saw no-one even remotely famous in either.Seems one of the Channelfly venues, Barfly Acoustic is cl...

No space left on device

DAMN, problems with popex all day so far, it thinks it's out of disk space and it's not, trying to sort it... possibly it's too many small files on the partition, or something. Going to try deleting a load of stuff.

Medium will be ace, if it's still left

Looking forward to Tuesday, and the Fighting Cocks gig...

more on the face

not really allowed to say much, otherwise will risk losing payoff. one could of course speculate that a resurgent Face would embarass Emap - making it look as though they were the problem, not "market conditions"alternatively, an observer might sugge...

the face will rise again...

... but it will be in zombie form

I went to the zoo today

I was in training all day today at Port Lympne, and what was the most exciting animal I saw? Yes a squirrel!OK I did see rhinos and a red panda on my lunch break, and monkeys by the truckload, more pictures to come. Also they messed up my lunch again...

I thought this place was dead

Are they still going? They're playing the Leas Cliff Hall on the 7th of October, see the calendar for more info.

I bet having two countdowns on a page breaks things.

Just spotted this in a local paper, sounds like the sort of place we're after. Crap website though.

Looking for a fireplace

It's about time I got a proper job done in the flat, so this weekend I'm going to take steps towards thinking about arranging either blinds or a new fireplace. Got a place lined up to sort out blinds and they might well be called Alpha Blinds, but f...

I thought BOSE was ace

Folkestone, safest place in the country

Best place to be a parent

The Observer says Stokey is the best place to be a parent, aside from the smack, crack and stabbings I guess. Cheerier news from Folkestone, WiMAX trials in January, from someone called telabria.com, yeah Folkestone's where it's at baby! Can't wait t...

Maybe this is the sort of place I should have bought

Having a scan of homes-on-line.com for Folkestone property, and found only one property - this. I'm sure this is already sold, can't believe it's only 250k, that's the sort of place I should probably have gone for, some income potential, and a lot cl...

Got a text, the weather is too bad for going up the scaffolding and fitting a flue liner, so the fireplace has been delayed until Thursday / Friday...

The Fireplace
