Moved house and back online

950 miles in a van over 4 return trips from south London to Peterborough (and 1 London to Clacton, Essex) and we are all moved up North! (Well, further up north than we were)


From a 2-bedroom flat, shared with a mate, to a 4-bedroom house all to ourselves. Myself, my girlfriend and our cats are settling nicely and are back online.


May the Intrawebs mayhem continue...

Twitter 3000

It has been 61 days since My 2000th Tweet. The addict is not slowing down!

To mark this occasion, here is one of the cutest cat on the internet. Enjoy:

Is it too geeky...?

What with a new decade just around the corner, I could help but think to myself:

Lots of binary dates coming up soon!

The level of geek surprised even me!

Binary dates (in my moment of maddened mind) are the following:

• Jan 1st 2010
• Jan 10th 2010
• Jan 11th 2010
• Oct 1st 2010
• Oct 10th 2010
• Oct 11th 2010
• Nov 1st 2010
• Nov 10th 2010
• Nov 11th 2010

These of course can be written as:

• 01/01/10 or 010110
• 10/01/10 or 100110
• 11/01/10 or 110110
• ...

These can also apply to 2011! Wow! 2 for the price as 1!

For the non-geeks among you that haven't got a clue what I'm on about but are in any way interested, check out the Binary Numeral System

For the rest of you... Here are a couple of ninja cats

Enjoy.

Saturday of success

Had my alarm set for 8.15am so I'd have plenty of time to wake up, get up, get onto the computer and wait for 9am. Why? Bon Jovi tickets for June 2010 were going on presale and I had an O2 code. This make for a happy me. So, 9am comes, I click on the link, go to ticketmaster and add 2 tickets to my basket (best available for £65 each), (I know!). For this price you'd expect to get really good seats and you'd have a night to remember... You'd be wrong. Row U in the back section! Total price... £149! Rip off!! Now I know it's not Bon Jovi that set the ticket prices, but it still pisses me off and puts me of seeing them in the future.

Anyway, on with the rest of the day, ticktless.

Home alone on a Saturday, what to do. Obviously, play PS3. Batman: Arkham Asylum. With only 3 tropies left to get (all connected, so I get one, I'll get the other 2 as a bonus) I played my ass off. And, you guessed it, I got the 3 trophies, completing the entire game and all achievables. It's both awesome and sad when this happens. Great because it's the culmination off my hours "hard work", but sad because there isn't anything new to do. I guess it's time to go back to Guitar Hero. Not a bad thing.

The gym followed the PS3 win. 10 minutes on the treadmill, 20 on the weights, 5 on the treadmill. Got through most of a Pendulum album (good music for the gym!). Not bad work out, now aching like a... really... achy thing.

Now home, showered, writing this (unexpectedly long) blog post, with an Oz on my lap (one of my two cats), watching Halloween (2007, Rob Zombie) and feeling hungry. Lunchtime.
