Register Here! FF3 I just installed Firefox3 (beta 5) on my work computer and I likes it! Still waiting for a load of add-ons to be updated, but I've found 2 new ones that are pretty handy: Stylish - Allows you to change stylesheets for certain websites. Like the functionality provided within webdeveloper, but allowing you to assign styles automatically to certain sites. Hide menubar - Hides the menubar surprisingly! Now that the File/Edit etc menubar is pretty much passed from common usage, why have it taking up valuable screen real estate?! (I could write the blurb for these sites professionally... almost). You can get the menu back by pressing the alt key, but I'm now the proud owner of a FF3 browser with all the functions I need on one toolbar. Not so sure on the new address bar, but I guess it will grow on me. I love the speed of it though!

Don't really know if I'd given up on it, but I figured it was time to write something new! A lot has happened since I last wrote here **opens another tab to see exactly when I wrote last!** and much of it is pretty exciting.    [Added at 20:30:40 on the 15-Mar-2008] [115 reads|0 comments|Rating 0(0)]   New Link: Gods Web Godsweb are a Christian based internet hosting company. Unbelievable value and excellent service! If you are starting a new website, up relocating an existing site, give these guys a go!

It started with Quicktime/itunes deciding that I wanted to be bugged when there was a minor update to their software (software which I only use because there is no other decent option in quicktime's case and software that I don't use and never plan to in itune's case!). Worse of all, there doesn't seem to be an easy way to turn these notifications off!    [Added at 00:03:46 on the 13-Jun-2007] [680 reads|0 comments|Rating 0(0)]   What's all this fuss? Why are people so angered about Gordon Ramsey's comments about eating horse because it's a healthy meal? I've eaten horse steak and it's a great meat. I'd eat horse meat any time with no bad conscience - it's a meat in exactly the same way that cow, pig, lamb etc is. So I recommend you try it if you ever have the oppurtunity - just because its a horse, you shouldn't be afraid of it or give it special privileges, they are no different to any other meat!

For those who are remotely interested (and I recognise there won't be a great many of you who are), here is what's stopped me posting recently! As you may have already read, I got engaged three weeks ago - it's all still very exciting, but beginning to settle down a bit now. We went to see the vicar of Christ Church Fulwood, where we will be getting married on Monday and the date is now set!    [Added at 12:54:02 on the 04-May-2007] [741 reads|0 comments|Rating 0(0)]   Trip to London! On Friday it was Emily's birthday. As well as lots of excellent presents (not just the ones from me), we had a trip down to London for a day, staying at Emily's brother's flat in Islington. We left on Friday evening and when we got there, we went to a really nice little restaurant on Newington Green called Fifty Six.      [Added at 19:56:09 on the 15-Apr-2007] [940 reads|2 comments|Rating 0(0)]   Shotgun rules Shamelessly nicked from facebook. READ WELL INDY STAMP and notice the lack thereof of any reference to calling "gun" instead of shotgun. This corner cutting is not acceptable and should not be accepted. Also, note rule 21. That means I have automatic shotgun rights in a certain 56 reg black polo. (The one belonging to a Miss E Proctor). History Lesson: The Term shotgun refers to back in old wild west days, when a person would have to sit next to the driver of the wagon with a shotgun to protect them from highway robbers    [Added at 20:41:34 on the 10-Apr-2007] [919 reads|0 comments|Rating 5(1)]   Jon Mackenzie's new song Jon Mackenzie has written a new song and it is pretty awesome - Check it out here!.

Last year, I decided to dig my garden in a rather extreme way - I have dug the slope back to create a patio area behind my house, moving a substantial amount of earth! In the middle of doing that, I took a break to do my guttering (and I did a fine job too!). Unfortunately, when I finished my guttering, the rain started and the summer was gone - I suppose you could call it good timing, but in reality it was pretty bad. As the rain and wind came and lasted into Winter, my freshly dug garden started to collapse as I hadn't been able to build a wall. So, Spring came this year and I got a friend to come in and build me a wall instead!      [Added at 11:28:21 on the 29-Mar-2007] [788 reads|0 comments|Rating 0(0)]	Quotes Cats are just evil monkeys Rob Sadler Circa 2001  Gratutious Ad!  Back to the future... ...the greatest trilogy ever, but which was the best?! poll credited to Debbie 00:32:07, 29-Aug-2006 Back to the future 1 Back to the future 2 Back to the future 3 None of them, I'm a geek who prefers Star Wars Results Surveys Votes: 92 Comments: 3  Top 10 Users: Newbie OwenBerg 36 Bobby 34 Bigsis 28 Huw 25 sicliff 18 Logan 11 scarlet miss charlotte 11 pooter 7 andhe 5 owen2 2  Top 10 Links 1 UKLinux.net 2 Chris Moyles fansite 3 Ioan Loosley 4 Rob Whiteway 5 Redragon Solutions 6 Ben and Liz 7 Spearhead 8 Loosley Web 9 Ezio 10 Baby Got Book  Facebook
