I forgot…

April 28th, 2008

… about this. Well more likely is I am just being too lazy. But it has been quite a while since I wrote anything of much substance up here, currently I am unable to sleep which sucks somewhat. I’ve been very busy as of late, I’ve finished my quite frankly ludicrous 5 week “Easter” “break” where I did not much but work, bum around, and drove places. So I am back at the grindstone that is university, ploughing through coursework at such a rate I guess I could describe as “relaxed” but that maybe pushing definition boundaries. I’m looking forward to next week when the last of my coursework is handed in and I am free to revise for exams, oh heck!

I’ve had a new desktop for the latter part of April inspired by a trip to Weston’s Cider of Much Marcle, Herefordshire over me holiday.

Chris' Desktop

I am moving towards a landmark on last.fm, 100 000 tracks played. Not decided what will be my 100 000th track hopefully I don’t go over it by mistake with something non-worthy.

I leave you with the thought, why would a dairy company write “Allergy information: contains milk” on the side of a bottle of milk? Surely that is the whole idea? Or maybe I am missing something…

Donington 2008

April 4th, 2008

Once again me and my dad went to Donington Castle, home of rock in England and more (or less) importantly hosts an annual Lotus event. I took a few photos with the camera whilst we were there, as usual they can be found in my gallery.

The 100 (allegedly) most beautiful cars

March 19th, 2008

The Telegraph ran an article on the 100 most beautiful cars as rated by their readers, I do agree with some of their opinions but not all.
