Same s(h)ite, different wrapper

May 23rd, 2006 · 5 Comments · Admin

Right, here we go… I’ve installed WordPress and done a few simple tweaks to ensure basic functionality. Apart from that, it’s all pretty raw at the moment; I really just wanted to get something up and running. The next thing to do is decide on a redesign… I’ve got a few ideas floating around at [...]

Until then, here’s some music…

No blog action for the next couple of weeks; I’ll explain why on my return. While you’re waiting, go to the MHP site for more information about the various test cards that filled our TV screens in those enlightened days before Reality TV…

Frayed string

August 4th, 2005 · No Comments · Admin

I’m still alive, just in case anyone was wondering. Having some sort of ADSL problem at the moment, though, so my internet use during the past few days has mostly been via my mobile phone. Fine for email and basic web browsing, but GPRS isn’t really viable for full net use. It’s all in the [...]

CSS for the stupid and lazy

July 26th, 2005 · No Comments · Admin

So… I decided it was high time I made a proper serious grown-up work-related site, saying what I do and how you can pay me to do it for you. At the moment, there’s only a brief mention in one of the pages on this site, and that’s not exactly earning me money. SUBLIMINAL ADVERT… [...]

In the land of the careless, the man with a spellchekker is king

So it took me three days to notice the typo in that last entry. Whatever… ;-)

Brief snippets

January 25th, 2004 · No Comments · Admin

Snippet #1: There’s going to be a redesign. Nothing structurally (yet)… just a few cosmetic issues. Snippet #2: There’s also going to be some maintenance work over at s f o c a t a, but not of a cosmetic nature. It’s all about automation and stuff. Snippet #3: Among people I’ve either met in [...]

Slow start to the year

January 11th, 2004 · No Comments · Admin, Drivel

So, yeah, anyway… did the Christmas and New Year thing, came back home, found that my hideous uselessness had made me forget to do loads of things, so spent the first week of normality desperately trying to do them. Still busy, but looking forward to doing a spot of recording later in the week. Already [...]

Comments – a consensus emerges

March 10th, 2003 · No Comments · Admin

Okay, so three people have emailed me and told me I should add comments. That’s good enough for me. However, I find the Grey Matter manual slightly confusing on the subject of comments, so I’m going to do a bit of research first…

Webstats again

March 6th, 2003 · No Comments · Admin

Another idle browse through the webstats for this site. Some poor (and probably quite disappointed) sod ended up here after doing a search for ‘porn in spaghetti’. I’m not entirely sure what this person was looking for. I’m guessing there are more possibilities open to the female lover of pasta porn, while the male consumer [...]

A new chapter…

January 2nd, 2003 · No Comments · Admin

Activity here should get a little more regular from now on. I started this site (or rather, its predecessor) back in 1998, but it was really just the standard “My Home Page” type of thing with the added novelty of “please buy my book“. I gradually added a few music- and guitar-related things, but then [...]
