Back to my desk after the xmas break [sigh].

I’n now 34. Ok, I look older :-(.
Last night made me feel it too. Went into a couple of pubs I first started visiting 17 (yes, seventeen) years ago. Yes, you do the math, that means I went to pubs aged 17, but unless I’m much mistaken some of the clientele in the one pub we visited last night were younger than that- the ones that seemed to be disco -dancing to Linkin Park (!).
The pub concerned has always been a rock/goth pub (or at least since the mid-80’s) and was advertising ‘Sk8r Rock’ nights, whatever the hell that is.
Then we gave up the nostalgia pub crawl and went for a quiet pint elsewhere before going home *before 11pm*.
Oh No. I am old.

Saw in the new year watching the copy of ‘The Naked Gun’ I got for xmas. It’s completely juvenile, and therefore ideal for me. What is it about the Airplane/Naked Gun films? I spot something new each time. (This time it was the lettering on the police lab door- From the inside ‘Police’ is visible reversed, but ‘lab’ is forwards).

PS Happy New Year everyone. Especially those of you so desperate to set off fireworks you stood in the (horizontal) rain to do it. That’s what I call commitment.

Finally after much delay, a change of linux distribution, an awful lot of ‘mysql drop [insert database here]’ and a lot of ‘content managment systems’, I’ve decided on my blogging system, and here it is. I can now bore the world rigid with my thoughts. Don’t get too excited. I’m still looking over the server setup at the monent, but the site will be online very soon.
It’s served to you by the blistering speed of a Pentium 1 150Mhz. Since it doesn’t run MS windows I’m hoping it will be fast enough.
