Bitte ein Bit…or 10,000 litres of it

Thursday, September 29th, 2005

We went to the Yorkshire Terrier last night. It serves Bitburger, one of my favourite lagers, and this reminded me of a story I heard the other day on the news (probably on Five Live). Apparently, to add a little excitement, the Bitburger (or in german if you prefer) brewery has offered 10,000 litres of [...]

The Gallery

Thursday, September 22nd, 2005

Two Sheds has a new photo gallery using Gallery. Another one of these packages that are really easy to get up and running and to use. I was using Flickr which was OK but without buying a subscription was a little limited. Particularly for grouping photos, such as those from my holiday, together into [...]

A week in Cornwall

Sunday, September 11th, 2005

I have been on holiday in Cornwall for the past week. It seemed more like a fortnight actually, but that must be because we packed a lot into the time. Stayed at Trevean Farm near Newquay which is Chris’s parent’s place. Matt and Laura also came down last weekend (until Monday) and I stayed down [...]

Finally…

… we’ve actually beaten Arsenal. They usually put about 4 past us but not today. Hurrah and hussar! Everton lost - sorry Matt! And Charlton are jont top - who’d have thought that. Alan Curbishley for the England job?
