notes from the housekeeper

Friday, January 20th, 2006

Weirdness continues. Cut me some slack while I get to grips with the aggregator that pulls together the words and pictures. Comments are back on with better anti-spam measures thanks to help from Bill Ward. Currently naked due to lack of CSS but it’s a start. Unfortunately the widget that tells me you posted a [...]

Saturday, June 11th, 2005

Another Peel related entry: I was lucky enough to see a Half Man Half Biscuit gig this week. It’s Peel related because it was he who revitalised my appreciation of them years ago when he played their Paintball’s Coming Home one evening.

The “Underwood No. 5″ mini-ITX project I think I’ve found the solution to Joel’s absence from the internet (as linked in previous linklog) Pictures of Walls ‘…The wall is the weapon of choice for the unarmed civillian…’ (via spaceandculture.org) delivered (almost) daily at (almost) midnight via del.icio.us.

Gone are the days when I would just ignore the natural desire for sleep and work on into the night. Instead I shall quickly hypertextualise my day. (I [...]

crimping and cranking

Sunday, August 15th, 2004

In an effort to wash away the rage that was building inside me after too many car journeys to work, I paid a visit to the climbing wall at Aston University last week. I really need to start getting on the tram again. Hatred for your fellow motorist hops from car to car like headlice [...]

help!

Sunday, June 6th, 2004

I’m trying to to get the perl code that delivers my del.icio.us links to include text as well as a time stamp. Without that, the numeric title screws up the writeback option. Can anybody tell me how to adjust the code? The lines in question are: #file name and location setup for ouputting to file [...]
