I've been scanning a random selection of negatives I picked up from Mum's a few weeks back. This is me as a student magazine editor back in 1993...

I was so very young. And unshaven.

I'm back from my hols. We stayed in a lovely place:

And walked to some lovely places:

And now I'm back in London, with my batteries recharged and ready to go.

Show us a ticket stub from a great concert you saw.

Hah! Bet you're jealous now! How many people can say that they have seen Spinal Tap live?

  1. I is on the Facebook.
  2. I is needing the holiday, but there is no holiday on the horizon.
  3. One Man & His Blog is all fixey-done into Movable Type 4. This is most flash, and you can leave comments there using your Livejournal account! Coolies! (You can still follow it as [profile] atomtinworth as well.)
  4. There is no Fing Four
  5. The car done got broke yesterday, but the man from the AA make it go-go again! Yay!

More scanning, this time of a series of pics of my parents' first home in Hazel Grove. Here's one of the builders, from 1968:

The staple of any charity shop: romance novels and tatty fantasy series.

Why do these two classes of books turn up in these shops with such frequency?

I suppose it's something to do with their target audience being voracious readers, who don't put any value in the books themselves once they're done with them.

Pulp clearly lives...

Last Saturday, my morning of indolence was disturbed by the unexpected arrival of a parcel. Inside was a kit for baking Dalek biscuits from Vanessa & Raz. I'd left a comment on Vanessa's Flickr stream a few weeks back, saying how much I fancied the biscuits. And she presented me with the chance to bake my own.

Thanks, Vanessa!

That evening, while Lorna was on the 'phone, I baked 'em up. It was somewhat challenging, as much of my kitchen equipment is packed away prior to us putting the flat on the market. No mixing bowl (I used a measuring jug) and no baking tray (I used a roasting dish). Not even a rolling pin.

It was a lot more fun than I expected, though, even if the biscuits themselves were slightly disappointing. I've cleaned the mould, though, and I'll have another go with my own cookie recipe, oh yes. Nothing can stop me now!

How well do you know your next-door neighbours?

I don't. At all. All I know is that they're a bunch of young chinese guys, and that there's a wall between us and them. And that's it.

However, one thing I do know is that Livejournal appears to have developed a Vox-like daily question feature…

A few weeks back, Karl and I went to Dublin, to visit the offices of Irish Medical Times. Michael, the mag's publisher, took us on a quick walking tour of the city after lunch, and I grabbed a few photos on my phone:

Safari on Windows.

It feels weird. But a good weird.

Oh, and there's a cool benefit for Vox users - the compose window mostly works in both the Mac and Windows versions of Safari 3.
