Flickr Usernames

The following is annoying me today - the person on Flickr with the username ‘Cas’ is blatantly not making full use of the Flickr-y goodness.
S/he’s had the account a while (at least a year and half) because when I registered with Flickr the name was already taken, but still.
Grrr.
I would make SO much better use [...]

Five Questions

Honestly, tag a guy once and you can never get rid of them! Still, this time I will forgive him because just when I had run out of inspiration on what to write (that slug-post is still blocking all normal creativity), Josh comes along and tags me. Then I got mentioned by Jay and I [...]

NicBaker.Com

Turns out Mr Tall, Dark and Great Smile is rather good artist and even has a website.
Go, have a look, buy a piece of art (I’ve got my eye on that eagle piece), and tell him Cas sent you. He most likely won’t have an clue who the hell you mean, but it will amuse [...]

The Calling

OK, so today at lunch time I was very bored and very pissed off with work (this week is the admin week from hell - roll on next week and the new job!) and when I’m bored and pissed off I have a tendency to spend money. If it’s money I don’t have even better… [...]

Sunday Roast: you may be cuddly, but can you float?

So there was no Roast last week - well it was my birthday and every once in a while things more important than blogging will occur. I know, heresy, but it’s true. In recompense, this week you will have a bumper-sized Roast with offerings from the past two weeks. Aren’t you fortunate people?
A recent study [...]

Sad News :(

I have to bring you sad news this Saturday morning.
Bright Meadow’s latest resident, Alexander the Fish, unfortunately died in the night. I have no idea why - he was swimming round quite contentedly in his bowl last night, though he hadn’t eaten anything since Thursday evening (he was normally a greedy little so-and-so). Whilst [...]

HELP!!!

Help!
Job Interview One on Wednesday - new team doing interesting, worthwhile things. As a new team, I’d be there from the start, with a chance to shape things to how I think they should be done. Vibe of the people from the interview was fun (but businesslike), excited, vibrant. A good job. Not too stretching [...]

growing old disgracefully

I’ve been called “Ma’am”, Mrs, and Madam today. I must be starting to look old!

Excuses, excuses

All evidence to the contrary I’m not just sitting on my arse, enjoying the last vestiges of summer, before my island is plunged into the eternal dreariness that is a British autumn and winter (I don’t mind the cold, I don’t mind it getting dark early. I don’t even mind it when it rains heavily. [...]

It’s my birthday and I’ll not post if I want too

Yup, it’s my birthday weekend so don’t look for any posts till Monday. My Dad is coming down for the weekend and, quite frankly, what we have planned is more fun than aggravating my RSI by blogging, so I’m going to spend the weekend away from the computer. I know! *gasp* Shock! Horror!
What is planned? [...]
