I’ve just seen a preview screening of Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith. Wanting to spare you all from spoilers, I will just say this: it is good. I mean, really, genuinely good — still plagued by some of George Lucas’ ineptitude concerning how men and women (and human beings generally) interact; but good action, good story development, and really getting into the mood the first trilogy had.
Well done, Georgie boy. You may have redeemed yourself somewhat.
…seems to be a pretty rockin’ band, and are suprisingly good when it feels too early in the morning. I approve.
Sorry about the white space below. I need to get better at this whole Interjob netting thingy.
This is my constituency. As you can see, I helped contribute to a 4.6% rise in the Lib Dem vote, which I’m kind of pleased about – proof that every vote does count, or some such.
But, its much the same day it was yesterday. I doubt Labour’s reduced majority will make much of a difference except to the amount of spin doctoring that goes on for the next 4 years. Who knows? At least we haven’t woken up in a world that’s substantially crapper.
G’luck to you, Tony & your tigers. Try to be grrrrrrrrrrreat.
I just voted – for the first time in any consequential election. It feels pretty good. Cast my vote at 9.44pm.
Labour look likely to win with a reduced majority – no surprise. Hope they’ve lost their majority to the Lib Dems, and not the alternative…
…going to get some sleep and hope that the world doesn’t go too crazy tomorrow. Viva la liberalisation!
Why are you reading this, if you’re in the UK? Go and VOTE!
Right, I’ve looked it up. Here’s my Flickr page.
Not much on there at the moment, but it seems pretty good and pretty straightforward. Not sure what my storage allocation is, but we’ll see…
I’m not going to have an issue blogging about random thoughts anymore. I tried (believe it or not) to wait until I had something of substance to say before posting, but that evidently leaves this site un-updated for months at a time – and its not as interesting as I’d like it to be when I do post, so I think I’ll just lower my standards.
So – last night I had one of those “eureka” moments, and this morning I can’t remember what it is. All I know was that it would have made my life better, would have involved buying something, and I have no idea what it was. Perhaps I dreamt it, or was taken in by some advertising.
Either way, it is annoying.
Oh – and all you people looking for “David Armand”? He’s the anti-brother, a member of the Hollow Men, and unrelated to me except insofar as we were at Cambridge at the same time and my brother knows the Hollow Men a bit. I hear they have a show on HBO at the moment – good on them!
Ah, the long silence, at last broken.
I’ve had an extraordinatily busy Q1 (how offensively management speak is that?) – as you can imagine from my digital silence.
One of my clients was at the 3GSM World Congress in February, so had a lot of work on that month, and between that, and various other bits & pieces going on in my life, there’s been little opportunity to blog. I’m keen to refresh the site in some way – perhaps a moderate redesign and somehow inserting a delicious linklog in here somewhere – but that, as with everything, requires a little more than I have at the moment. April was busy gearing up for Infosec at work… And May will be busy catching up on everything else that I’ve been missing out on!
Few things to update on, quickly:
(1) Am now seeing someone – which is great and holds all the excitement and terror that you can imagine that might bring. It is going really well at the moment – in fact, am freshly returned from a weekend away in Barcelona with the good lady, so all good.
(2) My parents came to visit for Easter and we had a very nice trip to Bath – good town!
(3) Have a new computer – so taking a while to get all software etc., set up to allow usual sleekness of blogging – including the “what I’m listening to” plugin etc., so please bear that in mind.
(4) I’ve reviewed the new Hitchhiker’s film for The London Line.
(5) I still think jam & cheese is the way forward.
I’m going to try to start posting more regularly, and will look for a decent photo-sharing service. Chris keeps banging on about Flickr, so I’ll have to look that up.
Hope you’re all well out there.
