Blogging about life as a 30 year old nerd, husband and father.
I was feeling a bit experimental this evening so after leaving work I headed to the local supermarket to pick up some ingredients for a great cooking experiment which I named in advance - “Andy's Sticky Chocolate Dumplings”. Yup… I made traditional dumplings like you put in stew only substituted the salt and water for [...]
I've written a little hack for Pmachine Pro 2.4 that uses the super duper new attribute rel=”nofollow” that Google have created to prevent comment spam (read more here) (well… the rel attribute has been around for ages and wasn't created by google BUT they have added support for it in their search engine). Adding rel=”nofollow” [...]
Just managed to tip half a bottle of red wine on my living room floor… Dammit. Still… good job we got the wooden stuff instead of the cream carpet ey? ;o) Mopped up a charm. Oh dear… I think that could possibly be one of my most dull posts EVER.
I've done it… it wasn't easy but I'm now using Pmachine Pro 2.4! You'll all be glad to hear that membership is no longer neccessary to post comments and hopefully the spamming bastards that bothered me before won't be able to get through the new Captcha detection.

ok ok… I caved in. I did it. Me and the missus just bought our first ever Apple computer. We have just treated ourselves to a brand spanking new 80Gb Mac Mini with Superdrive, Airport Xtreme, Bluetooth and a wireless mouse and keyboard. I just couldn't resist the lure of the sexy new mini mac. [...]

I came out with possibly the most deranged comment ever today while talking to some colleauges: “Being a web designer is a bit like being a rockstar only without the music, groupies and drugs”
I’m dead chuffed… tonight I received a notification from the nice people at iStockphoto.com letting my know that my bogroll picture had been accepted! I only submitted the pic as a bit of a laugh and I wasn’t really expecting it to be approved but low and behold… they have! You should have seen the [...]
