This is the same as Matt White and co. are doing, come on Ben join in!!

The reason that my shots are so close and narrow focus (unlike the other bloggers), is although the majority of the flat is vastly interesting (in a though the key hole kind of way), explaining and coping with the embarrassment would take me more time than i have left to live.

Frightening Conversation Number 1


You ‘re there writing a web site and behind you, you hear your dearest say “If you wanted to kill someone and get rid of the body, Argos has every thing you would want, flat pack incinerators and power tools at very reasonable prices, They even have a patio extension with built in hand rail to cover the crime scene”,

I’m sleeping in the toilet tonight!!!

Down to earth with a bump

so you think you can get all smug, and know your stuff but it turns out the you are only ever scratching the surface no matter how much your learn, take me for example i use eclipse and do most of my proper code in java rather than lotus script, all of my desktops are Linux (admittedly i still have a vmware image), so i decided to work with a college on a serious project, Linux/Jboss/Spring/Domino 8.5 all the latest stuff, total CV frenzy, and do it in the most hard core form, now I’m looking at a RedHat server command line with no GUI in sight, and a bunch of build files!!

So it not imposable but it certainly gonna take a bit more time, perhaps i’ll skip the rest of tonight and go watch tank police (feel the power that they got)
