Old spice has been doing most excellent viral adverts of late, replying to Tweets, Facebook and Youtube comments, and questions posted on Reddit. One of these resulted in this post to Reddit, and then through excellent collaborative work between myself, Chriswastaken and isevenx, http://oldspicevoicemail.com/ had been up, tweeted by @OldSpice and then down due to [...]

An entry during term time!?! What madness is this!? I’ve had the magnificent fortune to not have suffered from any serious illness during my time in Cambridge – until this week. I was practically bedridden for two days, technically functional but practically ineffective for a third (curiously, between the two bedridden days). It’s hardly been [...]

I had my last day in the lab today. I’ve enjoyed my summer job there, but I am very much looking forward to going home – I’ve basically had two terms rolled into one, so I rather feel like I’ve earned a break. I’m headed home tomorrow, and TPJ is having another tarpaulin party which [...]

I’m moving my site from an engine of my own (poor) design to WordPress. I’m keeping the same theme and everything though, but it might take a while for me to port everything across.

So, it’s Christmas Eve. We cook the turkey today, so that we’re not stressed out tomorrow cooking the turkey, so our first Christmas meal was this eveing. And boy, it was nice. I may die if I eat (most) real food, but damn. Just about the only thing I can’t eat the ‘normal’ version of [...]

After winning tickets to V, I won two tickets to Game Stars Live. Going with Brady, we found our way to Excel and queued for 20 minutes before the doors opened. I then went straight to the Halo 2 demonstration and queued for 90 minutes to play a 5v5 CTF game. For five minutes. With [...]

V was great fun; I went with Deepak in the end. In my opinion, Faithless and The Divine Comedy were the most entertaining, but I enjoyed all of the acts I went to see (which, on top of Faithless and The Divine Comedy, were The Killers, the Charlatans, Hope of the States and Muse). I [...]

5 As. Nice. 293/300 in Chemistry shouldn’t be sniffed at. Shockingly, my computing was my worst subject. I’ve also won a pair of VIP tickets to V. However, I do need to find someone who: Wants to go Can go Isn’t already going I wouldn’t mind going with Worst comes to the worst, I would [...]
