Black and white white and black

Not had this much snow in 18 years apparently. Might take the camera out tomorrow. And the sledge?

For somebodies wall.

To commemorate the new album, a bit of messing about in photoshop for Jaymes. He’s obsessed with The Boss.

Yesterday was too busy, today is similar

Didn’t have time to do anything yesterday, and today has been similar. Got lots to organise. Only time for a quick abstract, possibly to go on the wall.

Today, England is in recession. (Officially)

As a result, I’m leaving the health theme for a day. We’re told we are officially in recession today – we’ve had two consecutive quarters of falling economic growth. Jonathan Ross is back, just in time to save us.

Staying with a healthy theme…

Maybe tomorrow, I’ll have someone on a bike.

This way of thinking is brought to you by walkit.com who I have recently come across. They want to get you walking all those urban (and rural I suppose) journeys you might otherwise have taken a car/bus/taxi. An excellent idea.

A little bit of art

I should make something, however small, every day. Todays effort is a bit tame, but it’s a start. I might come back to it. The text might look better following the path of the bowl.

Windows vista – to hibernate, or not to hibernate?

I have had a scary weekend. Whilst using my usually reliable touch pad last Thursday, I inadvertantly (with my usually reliable fat fingers) set my laptop to hibernate, rather than shut down as normal. What panic awaited me when I tried to reboot. After a few seconds of the disc turning, it seemed the thing had died.

I tried suggestions gained from google and tech forums, powering down, letting the battery drain, battery removal, etc. The vista disc was in Leeds, I was in Brum, so tried to boot from an Ubuntu disc I had on me, but no luck.

After I got back to Leeds, the thing bluescreened on me twice trying to boot from the vista disc. Third time lucky, thank God. The moral is don’t hibernate.
