Huzzah! and just like that I loose 10%.

Wednesday, January 28th, 2004

I emailed my lecturer yesterday “Lucie, Isabel tells me that our
projects were supposed to be presented this afternoon. Obviously I couldn’t
make it as I only found out at 3.30 and I live two and a half hours away. I was
on the understanding that the presentations would be in the week after the
reading week […]

Mobile Blog Test

Monday, January 26th, 2004

I’ve been looking at mobile blogging lately, when I should have been
working. It’s a way of posting to a blog through a mobile phone via email. I
thought it was pretty cool so I decided to set one up as a test, when I should
have been working. Eventually I will redo this site […]

Why Jo shouldn’t be allowed to play with balloons..

Sunday, January 25th, 2004

For Christmas my brother (upon my suggestion) bought Jo a balloon modelling
kit. She had wanted one since we saw the magicians at Gill’s party.
Unfortunately the instructions seem to have been translated back and forth by a
deaf, blind mute so they were hard to follow. For her birthday I bought her a
DVD to explain […]

Happy Birthday Jo.

Sunday, January 25th, 2004

I had a lovely weekend in London with Jo. I took her away as it was her
twenteenth birthday today. We stayed at The Caesar Hotel near Hyde Park and it
was very nice.

As we were leaving this morning I spotted rather a nice car
outside so I thought I should take a few pictures and […]

Slightly Worried

Monday, January 19th, 2004

I have an awful lot of work to do and the deadline is rapidly approaching.
No more entries for a while (probably). As a sign of how much work I have to do
the two PS2 games I bought on Friday in the sale at Game still haven’t been
opened (except to check there were discs in […]

Finally.

Thursday, January 15th, 2004

I finally got around to something I’ve been meaning to do for a while. I
got the Apache webserver working properly on my Powerbook with Movable Type
(tutorial) and PHP (tutorial) installed. It has been a productive
evening. Now all I have to do is figure out MT and design my site ready to hand
in […]

Photo Restoration

Thursday, January 15th, 2004

I spent just over two hours today retouching this photo. The girl in white at the front right is my Grandmother. I’m incredibly proud of this, I love fixing old
photos, it feels like it needs to be done. I also made an outline copy so that
my Gran can write all their names […]

Another night, another site.

Wednesday, January 14th, 2004

I’ve just set up nonstick.3dpixelnet.com. I don’t know why I
chose that name but it came to me as I was filling out the form and it seemed as
good a name as any. It is going to be used for my current uni project a
community site for Mac geeks and then, after the project […]

Panther continued..

Wednesday, January 14th, 2004

I’m so lame, I only got around to posting the order for Panther today.
There seems to be something wrong with the form on Apple’s website. It has a
drop-down box where you choose year of purchase but there are no choices in the
box and when you submit the form you get an error telling you […]
