Things Can Only Get Better —

I got some brilliant news yesterday! An insurance claim I started nearly two years ago for damages after an accident I had on a roundabout in Worcester has *finally* been resolved! I got a call from my friendly solicitor yesterday telling me that the other insurance company settled before going to court and a compensation [...]

Lefty or Righty? —

Was feeling bored at lunch today, so I wrote a little css style switcher and twatted about with my stylesheet for a bit. You can now choose between lefty or righty. You'll need to have cookies enabled for it to work, but you have to be pretty lame anyway to be suffering from cookie paranoia! [...]

Getting Closer —

I'm really shitting myself now. Only two whole days before we make the move! Eeeeek! There is one downside to me moving. I'm off work for two weeks starting Friday and I'll be away from my blog for sometime. The flat doesn't yet have a phoneline enabled and that won't be switched on until the [...]

I See Light! —

Is it wrong to whistle the theme from The Great Escape while taking a dump? I'm pretty sure it's not right to compare British soldiers escaping from a prisoner of war camp with faecal matter escaping from my arsehole but it's an interesting image non the less. Enjoy your tea everyone!

Wicked Choons —

I came across a brilliant new song yesterday. It's called “Slide Along Side” and it's by Shifty. For those of you who don't know, Shifty Shellshock is the guy who rapped along to “Butterflys” with the band Crazy Town, and was also the guest vocalist on “Starry Eyed Surprise” by Paul Oakenfold (which was *the* [...]

Scary Times —

This website scares the holy bejesus out of me. Now I know it's probably a bit of scaremongering, and loads of people have said this kind of stuff before, but the science seems to be there. 2012? I won't have even finished paying the mortgage by then! This part is a bit freaky… apparently, the [...]

Bad Vibes —

I fell out with the missus last night. Of all the stupid things we could disagree over we had an argument about money. I think this may be a serious case of pre-moving in nerves, we're both stressing over the amount of money we'll be forking out every month and theres a still so much [...]
