I'm just this guy... y'know? :)
Well we’ve had a start to the day. The outside temperature is 13ºC even at 6:00 a.m. and, for a change, the air conditioning hasn’t frozen over so the house was warm! The youngest daughter is up already. She’s got dressed, had breakfast and is all bar ready to leave for school. No arguments On … More Such a nice day
So… Donald Rumsfeld was briefing George Bush in the Oval Office… “Oh and finally, sir, three Brazilian soldiers were killed in Iraq today.” Bush goes pale, his jaw hanging open in stunned disbelief. He buries his face in his hands, muttering “My God…My God”. “Mr. President,” says Cheney, “we lose soldiers all the time, and … More The genius of George.
Found a couple of links that might be interesting. First off is an interview JKR did with msn. There’re a few questions answered here but not as many as we’d like. 🙂 Second is a webchat she did where she answered a few of the most important questions out of the 120,000 submitted. There is … More Pottermania revisited
Seems the UK is being visited by a rather large shark which might be yet another sign of global warming? Could be that soon the UK will be getting regular visits from some of these monsters and you’ll be getting the reports of people vanishing out of the sea with no trace being found.

Unfortunately … More Widgets ahoy!

It’s still a load of fun but you might miss a few of the ‘in-jokes’ 🙂 If you *do* decide to go see it, I’d suggest … More Spider pig, spider pig…
I was in Aldi supermarket the other day and there was a pile of DVD’d going cheap there so naturally I had to have a nose. One I found I just *had* to have. It is a copy of old an Beatles TV appearance from April 28th 1964. In it the ‘fab four’ do a … More The Beatles – yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!!!
THere was a tae-kwon-do competition in one of the local sports centre’s yesterday and the eldest entered two of the tournements. She won both receiving a medal for each. We think she’d have got more if she’d entered more of them… maybe next time. She’s currently a Brown Belt but is looking towards getting ehr … More Daughter did well!
The kids are nagging to go see it this weekend. The wife is working so she won’t be able to go, and she isn’t as fond of them as the kids and I are 🙂 So… looks like we’ll be off in a few hours if I can buy tickets online before we go. I’ve … More The Simpson's Movie
There have been a few twitterings in the ranks about the way the modern Aussie army is recruiting new recruits. The main focus of the concern has been the new series of posters featuring the Lady Differ in a variety of situations but in most wearing the same outfit. Trouble is that this costume is … More Lady Diggers!
