regarding india

hail t and s,

Sounds like you’re both are having a good time and I hope you avoid all the facinating and hideous diseases out there. Such as leprosey and the like.

H and I were visiting my gran this weekend and had a jolly time meeting cousins, aunts and uncles i haven’t seen in a while and H hadn’t met at all. And newcastle won their second game in a row which is more or less unheard of in recent times. Also, rumour has it that M O’Neil is preferring Newcastle over the england job, which is understandable…

I can provide you with everyone’s email addresses if you like, but I think the blog far superiour for any lengthy or short “group” messages.

J still hasn’t cut his hair or shaved his beard.

posting pictures

once uploading the picture, you need to drag it into editing window.

By default it uses a thumbnail but you can change it to use the actual picture or have it so it links to the actual pictures by clicking on the thumbnail of the picture before you drag it into the editing window.

If you use the actual picture rather than the thumbnail, you can resize the picture by dragging one of the corners.

skiing and footy

skiing was good stuff. Pretty cold most of the time, but nowhere near as cold as it was last Jan. Unfortunately the coldness wasn’t offset by plush powder… Pinkie took well to blades and rich picked up boarding very quickly. Sharna did well on skis in the last couple of days. I didn’t manage any 360s on account of having a bad back. next time.

Played footy for the first time in ages today (though only for 15mins) and we won 1-0 and went 2nd in the table!? bit of a shock after the start of the season we had.

No celebrities spotted but apparantly Abramovich was skiing at the same time as us, but in a completely different part of the alps.

celebrity spotting

I went out in brighton on friday for a drink and meal with the chaps from work. The first pub we went to was The Nelson which is opposite our offices. Upon entering I saw Mark Williams of Fast Show fame. He was sitting at a table with a pint of ale chatting with some of the locals. I concidered going up to him and say “ooh, suit you sir!” or “This season, I shall be mostly wearing…” but decided against it.

redesign

Hail,

I feel the site is in need of a redesign, but i’m unsure what the new design should be. Any ideas? All design or feature suggestions will be considered, but may, of course, be rejected by the management ie. me.

– i’m thinking black text, so we’d have to lighten the background… white or possibly pastels.
– Have all contributors credited in the “a blog by…” section
– remove archive links to a separate page
