The saga of ebuyer is a long and bitter one. I placed an order for a Seagate Barracuda 80Gb 7200rpm UDMA100 Hard Drive from ebuyer on Sunday 14th August for deliver BY Thursday 18th August. It did not arrive on the 18th and when I tried to phone customer services at 16.35 I was put… Read More »
Hmm, it looks like I am not a blogger. I use it like I use a diary; in bursts of organisation, tailing off into apathy. First off, ebuyer suck. They have been good in the past, but this last couple of weeks I have become more and more annoyed with them. I ordered a hard… Read More »
Hannah is in hospital with suspected appendicitis. There are two things that bother me about this. Firstly, obviously I am worried about her. It would be naive not to be. It is a routine operation if she needs it to be removed. She is having a laparoscopy in the morning which should tell them if… Read More »
Whoa, I haven’t blogged in ages, and a lot has been going on. First up, I’m married! After so long in the making, the wedding day finally arrived and went (almost) without hitch.

I’ve got tomorrow, monday and wednesday off and I’m booked on a couple of days at the ACCU conference in Oxford. whoop!
Things are slowly grinding towards completion. After a number of holdups, we’re just waiting for confirmation that Persimmon will still pay our rent based upon completion on the 15th. Lots of stress on at the moment with wedding preparation, house stuff, Hannah’s exams and trying to find her a job. Just got to keep it… Read More »
Spent all day saturday laying laminate flooring for Hannah’s parents. It’s looking pretty good, which is relieving as I was a bit apprehensive about stuffing it up. Once Hannah and I got going we had a good system going and got on pretty well. It was SPÅN from Ikea and looks pretty nice although it… Read More »
There are some house pictures of the house “here.”:/house.html They’re pretty bad quality, but give some idea of what it’s like inside. We’re a bit concerned at the moment that the top of the chain wants to complete on the 4th April. They’re moving to a new build and the builder is applying pressure. That’s… Read More »
I’ve upgraded WordPress to 1.5. It was straightforward for me, although I had to hack one of the scripts a bit to deal with my dynamic php/css stuff. I managed to stuff up Hannah’s at first but a bit of hacking on the posts database fixed things. The templates seem pretty good, much better than… Read More »
