……out here in the hall; I’m giving serious consideration to B’s suggestion that I should move my computer into the living room. Trouble is, there isn’t anything big enough to put it on except the (ex-kitchen) table that it’s currently sitting on, and finding room will be difficult. So for now I’ll put on another […]

….to prove it, I can spell BANANAS! I thought I had polished off all my banana wine last night, but I’ve just discovered a bottle hiding away in the kitchen, trembling in trepidation. Never, fear, little bottle, you shall remain virginal – for the time being…. I’m now brewing a further two gallons – a […]
….meeping about web design and stuff. Getting on with the design for the new online Transit, I’ve been looking at CMSs that are specifically for online magazine/newsletters. WordPress, once again seems to win hands down, with at least three themes that are suitable. I’ve looked at a standalone Drupal spin-off called Prosepoint, but its still […]
Well, it’s finally stopped raining – I’ve done no gardening done since Sunday. Didn’t manage any gardening yesterday, probably won’t do any today either – yesterday I got my new hard drive and spent the whole day just installing everything; I’m still dont finished, still got to copy over all my music and pictures, plus […]

So, spent most of the evening designing my new site. The results are here (the links aren’t working yet). I quite like it… Still haven’t decided where I’m going to keep this blog. Shoving it onto a new domain would be the simplest answer, but I’m worried about the expense of hosting; putting it onto […]
Yes, I’ve been away from this blog for a week or two. Been busy with various stuff – getting the Elfin Diaries site up and running (yes, I know it looks just like the old site, but I have managed to give it a much more stable backend; there’s nothing I can do about the […]
I’ve spent the last three days doing almost nothing but test out various Open Source CMS packages. Fot a long time, I’ve been thinking of using CMS for the
Now that I’ve got a local server up and running on my machine (thanks to WAMPS – easiest local server install ever), I can now easily design WordPress themes. This new look is one of the first results – the other is Hyde2612.net. It’s not finished yet – quite a few things, like the sidebar […]
