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.
