I've been off with Harry for just about FOUR WEEKS now, this is amazing! I've not only forgotten what it is I do at work, I'm not entirely sure where it is any more. Luckily my neighbour works there, saw her today, they were having a very sophisticat...

Where'd my paternity leave go?

Man alive that quality time with Clare and Harry has gone fast, one more day of it really. I should spend less of the remainder on the computer! Harry is sleeping and Clare is getting ready for us to go down town though. As I already mentioned he's s...

If you can't see your screen...

Make yourself a shade out of manila file folders. Basically a big hood over your monitor, then lean your head in. Side effect: your boss will actually notice that you're having a real problem, not just whining, and that you're doing something about i...

The things you see when you don't have your camera

Buffseeds / Bluetones... Blueseeds? Bufftones?

Listening to the debut Buffseeds album The Picture Show right now, and first impression is that it sounds a bit like JJ72 and a lot like the Bluetones... not their livelier tunes, but the more whistful and melancholic stuff definitely...Anywyay, it's...
