Four more days until the Make Poverty History march (and a load of other G8 protests) and the BBC are having a laugh with their weather forecasts! Yesterday it said rain today, tomorrow and Friday, thunder storms on Saturday Change of plan today. Still forecasting rain today (quite nice at the […]
Well, we’re back in pre-season training and no new players yet Word is Reina will arrive this week now that Kirkland is out on loan at WBA. Next up is Zenden coming in on a free early next week (replacing Biscan) and that now seems to be a done deal. Now […]
Time to stand up and be counted. On Friday I posted letters (on Donald’s suggestion) to all seven Scottish MEPs telling them to get their arses over to Brussels and stop this disastrous Software Patent Bill being passed on July 7th. Did it on headed paper and also submitted my details to […]
The comment on the previous post by p5ychofox has alerted me to the fact that this page is a Googlewhack using the words “whoosh-ing” and “hyper-bolism” (I’ve put the hyphens in to keep it a ‘whack for as long as possible). You can see a nice screen capture of Google and the recent entry […]
In fact it goes so quick I even missed the longest day of the year and the quirk with the moon last night (at 10.30 it appeared twice as big due to an optical illusion). Still laughing at the gag I heard from American Dad, something along the lines of “Quick, call the Exaggeration […]
The trouble I’ve had trying to unlock my mum’s mobile phone. Basically it was on Virgin and quite a new phone too. The great guys over at Veecom who arrange my work mobile phone contracts tried to get it unlock but had no luck. Someone even came around to my office to […]
Batman! Just seen Batman Begins last night (Orange Wednesday, nice) and as a stand alone film it was excellent. Put in perspective there are a few issues I have with it. I didn’t think the bad guys were anywhere near as evil as Jack Nicholson’s Joker or Danny DeVito’s Penguin but this […]
Hmmm. I was browsing through the hits on this new site when I noticed that one of the referrers to phillg.com was a sex site. Without promoting the site itself it basically offered “live web cam girls” and the page in particular showed which girls were online now! I’ve search that page […]
Wandering into the office this morning I saw an Innocent Smoothie van pull up. What caught my eye was the fact that it was covered in grass! Very cool.
This is all a bit fancy isn’t it? Using my own website under my own domain to host my very own blog. Well I’ve been doing a lot of work recently on websites (notably my new company one, SNIPEF so I thought it was about time I updated my own. Furthermore it […]
On my way back from lunch I walked passed a charity shop and saw a sign in the window. I was going to go in and let them know but at the last moment I wondered a) if they genuinely did think this was the correct spelling and b) what if the illness they […]
Wandered into McDonalds for lunch today and noticed they’d put a sign up above the disabled toilets (the only ones on the ground floor) saying how long it was since they last were cleaned/inspected. A green number means it is inside the 15 min checking time, a red number means an inspection and cleaning […]
