My good buddy Joe has has a jolly nice revamp of his very well written blog. The Woolamaloo Gazette, check it out.
Last night we did the usual Drooth Neebors pub quiz. As usual we didn’t wein but this week we beat alex’s team by three points! huzzah! Last week they won, so this week was a nice come-upance.
hrm, this is a small update. Oh well, back to the project work.
This is the prototype Marvin costume for the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy feature film, sculpted by the Jim Henson Creature Shop in September 2003 to fit actor Warwick Davis. I like it a lot, nice visual style. This film could be good.
I seem to be getting very slack with the old blogging lately. Trust me, it will get better.
We have moved hosts after an ok-ish year with dataflame. We’ve decided on clook.net and everything seems to have moved ok, which is nice. Oh and they threw in a free domain: http://ninjahosting.com.
The control panel software is very different to plesk but seems to be more flexible and powerful, even if it looks like ass. We’ll see how we go on this host…
Well, that was a lot of fun.
I’ve finally come down from the new year kerazy party madness. You may have heard that new year was bit of a wash-out in Edinburgh, not in our flat! I had decided to throw a party and then just go watch the fireworks at 12, then carry on the fun. TBH we didn’t miss the fireworks that much, and everyone was pretty sloshed by then anyway. About 25 or so people turned up, which was pretty fun and my room got very cosy at times. Big up thanks to John for lugging up his decks and mixer, top tunes mate and fun to mess with.
I went to bed at about 4:30 after the mass exodus of people at 4am. Turned up in the morning to clean up and found a monumental haul of booze, thanks to everyone. Kerry was then providing new years day dinner for loads of people (well, six) which was very enjoyable. Huge steak pie and veggies all round. Nicely stomach settling after the night befores excesses.
We then proceeded to play the Top Of The Pops board game which Kerry got for xmas. Oh boy, “ages 10+” it said in the box and it wasn’t joking. Some questions were ridiculously easy while others were about obscure, one hit wonder girl groups from the 90s. Very random at times. Of course, the highlight of the evening was Alex and Graeme’s rendition of “I’ve got you” by Sonny and Sher in the performance round. I loll-ed, mainly because me and Kerry missed the performance square for the entire game. Oh and they went on to win the game aswell, gah!
