01/03/2009: Back from Venice
Got back from Venice last thursday at about midnight followed by 2 long days at work so updating now, Venice
was pretty cool, much what you would expect. We were there for the last 3 days of carnival so it was incredibly
crowded and busy, with some very impressive masked and costumed people wandering around.
Though it was cold we were lucky with weather, it only rained one evening and was pretty calm the rest of the
time. The night it did rain was the closing ceremonies thing which we had thought was fireworks but rather
disapointingly was a "light show" which in my mind is health and safety fireworks without conviction. They also
had a beatles cover band playing, I always forget that europe seems to have very different tastes in music and
are still big fans of a lot of older western bands.
Unfortunately along with it being sunny it was also very hazy most of the time so im not too happy with my photos
overall but i think i got a few decent ones, will go sorting through them later today and see about uploading to
picassa later on.

18/02/2009: Low altitude computing
So i thought i might look at updating my site, and we just moved our computer room downstairs figured it was as
good a premise to update as any other.
We now have side by side desks which is actualy a lot less cramped than our old computer room, thanks to Richard
for suggesting the move. I need to get a door to put between us and the kitchen now other than that the new room
is quite comfortable, BTW those brown boxes are 4 Noctua coolers for my new PC :) only 2 of them are mine, the
others for Richard.
The old room is now kinda empty but apparently baby boys occupy space as well as time and money, so we can stick
it in there when it shows up.

02/02/2009: Hell Froze Over!
I updated my website! Oh and its realy cold in the UK atm.
Yep it was all white outside, such a refreshing change from wet and yucky.
Overall its been more cold and dry this winter though which i have quite enjoyed, much easier to dress warm than
dressing dry. I will probly sort out some sort of gallery system to link to in the near future.
