A good friend of mine has been attending an evening class at the local higher education centre in Southampton. He’s been learning web design. More accurately, he’s been learning Dreamweaver. He’s been learning to layout pages using frames and tables. He’s been learning to use the ‘properties’ box to set the font size, colour and […]

The Office (series two) on DVD is being sold on Ebay! Mental, unoffical and amazingly going for �12 a copy. I’d wait for the offical DVD to come out if I were you. Other Office items available through Ebay here. And tonight, Alan Partridge episode 2. Your thoughts and comments please.

Example: my misuse of the word “loose” for “lose” (cheers Stephen) and my use of “Leads” when I meant “Leeds” (Mike Hoddy). I must do better. I’m taking my spellings home with me to write two […]

Northern Bytes.org has a highly addictive/frustrating game called Rush Hour on its site. I can’t get past level 8. My ex boss and CCN-North New Media Manager, Peter Smith, can easily pass level 12 every time Unbelievable. Try it for yourself. What’s the meaning behind the Q Magazine style cryptic title? Answers in comments please.

There’s some nasty weather rattling around these parts. More homes across the UK are yet again without power. At least there’s little risk of fire for them. Apparently Green Goddesses can’t travel any faster than 30mph or they topple over. God I feel safe. It’d be funny but I was watching on Newsnight soldiers trying […]
