Earthquake
Well I didn’t feel anything did you?
My First Ride On A Motorbike
Here’s youtube video of my first go on a motorbike, Ross was very kind to film it for me.
Classic Lynx Advert
Here’s what I consider to the best lynx advert ever, its the one with Jennifer Aniston and the backing track provided by Apache Indian, ignore the Ariel advert at the beginning to follows it. God Bless the youtube!
Its Finished
Finally the Kitchen is complete after two and a half weeks, we now have new coloured walls, wood work, grout and more importantly a nice new floor! So what do you think…?

I’ve just had my first ride on the back of a motorbike courtesy of John Chivers, a video of it was taken. Check back on monday when I will have embedded and you can all have a chuckle at me trying to get on a bike.
Play.com Launches PlayDigital DRM Free Music Downloads
Play.com (one of my favourite sites) has now launched a DRM free MP3 download service. From what I have seen it has only been launched today so at the moment the pickings are slim, but its cheaper than iTunes and its DRM free. Album prices start at £4.99 and individual tracks start from 69 pence. If Play get a few more labels involved and increase the size of its catalogue then it might be an early blow to Amazon before they launch a DRM free UK service. PlayDigital
UK users face ‘three strikes’ Internet ban: Kicked off for copyright infringement
Well I don’t know what this will achieve, I’m not overly impressed and if this “drive down” piracy will it make anything cheaper….somehow I doubt it

Geometry Wars Galaxies

Painting
Well despite it being a lovely sunny weekend, we haven’t seen much of it as we have been redecorating the kitchen. We are nearly finished after the mad painting spurt of yesterday where my motto was do it fast not right. Here are some photos Kitchen1.jpg Kitchen2.jpg Kitchen3.jpg of our work in progress.

Medical Shorthand
Medical confessions an interesting insight into doctors shorthand and views off the public. I quite like NFN and FLK
I’ve Finished My Apple
Sadly I’m going to have to say goodbye to the borrowed apple mac as it has to go back with Katie to her work, we had some good times and they will always be special.
Apple Convert
Well someone has “loaned” me a iBook G4 for the week and I’m having a little play. I’ve got it admit is great I love it. Its nice and small, lightweight a crisp screen and one of the most perfectly designed pieces of kit I’ve ever seen.
I’m not allowed to install on software on it
which is a shame as I wanted to see how that whole side of it worked. Well I could always install something and then uninstall it again…(shh don’t tell anyone). Because its an iBook there’s no web cam built into it which is probably a good thing as I’m sure I would have wasted 3 hours in photo booth and theres no time machine or stacks to play with but its brilliant. Plus I already feel smug for using it in the way that only mac users can. I’m gonna get Katie to take a picture of me using this.
So now all I need to do is speak to Katie and see what she says about getting one to replace the Windows box…..
Lost
I’m sure I can’t be the only one but I can’t wait for lost to start again on Sunday. Come on
Behaviour
I would like to apologise to everyone there my appalling behaviour on Friday 25th Jan 2008. It was quite uncharacteristical to be like that.
There’s Something In The Air
Well Apple have had their Keynote and brought out the MacBook Air and while I do think its a pretty looking device I won’t be purchasing one. I’m nopt quite sure how your actually “borrow” a PC’s drive to install software and the fact that its completely sealed bothers me slightly. I wouldn’t actually go poking around inside a mac (well maybe for a quick look) but the knowing that I definably can’t bugs me somewhat and makes me to look inside even more. I think that if I ever get round to picking one up that I’ll go for one of the low end macbooks. I still haven’t seen the keynote I’m just reading all the coverage and watching some podcasts, as soon as I get home I’ll be jumping straight onto youtube and watching.
