Apologises to use the overused pun but a Saturday of two halves. First half productive, second half relatively empty and meaningless. I got up a bit later than I wanted to but rushed to get ready and caught the bus at 9.32am. First stop, Jerry’s Street Styles for a haircut, then to the library. This […]

I have been using the BBC iPlayer since launch on Christmas Day but had a request. A killer script for the XBMC (the product formerly known as Xbox Media Centre – great new web site) to enable the programmes to be downloaded (or streamed) to my television screen. I had a hunt around on the […]

What a weekend! No, for once I am not referring to anything I got up to. Far from it, for me it was a very lazy and non-event of a weekend. However sporting wise, it was electric. I watched all of the FA Cup ties (although only fully concentrated on the Manchester and Chelsea ties) […]

My weekend started at midday, as I got into my car to go home. Instead of putting on a CD, I switched over to the radio, KISS100 were playing Good Life by Kanye West. I put on my sunglasses, reversed out of my spot and sped off out of the car park. Weekend here I […]

With a new year, comes great promise. Quite a substantial amount of work too, behind the scenes here at T3G:2 to reorganise the archives. I thought I would make use of this time to give the pages a little clear up with some more suitable renaming. It had to be done, updates from 2004, does […]

Went to see I Am Legend with my cousin-in-law yesterday evening. I booked two tickets for the Empire up the road, opting to walk rather than trek over to Reading. While we could have caught a later showing I preferred to go before the crowds begin to gather, so chose the 6pm screening. (This was […]

Hope you had a great Christmas. It is strange that with all the build up, it is in fact just another twenty four hours. A special twenty four, but a day nonetheless. Even though I am surrounded by amazing pieces of technology. I will be the first to admit that I do not make the […]

Men were never designed to wrap presents. I find it does not matter how much I spend trying I cannot do the job. Even a educational video from YouTube could no help. Thankfully this year I did not have anything to cumbersome to wrap, just all standard box shapes but it does not make the […]

I have been a fan of blogs at the Beeb for a while (look back to late March last year). However, I am totally addicted to the BBC Internet blog as it celebrates ten years of the corporation web services, giving an insight into the development hurdles faced to bring the Beeb online. The most […]
Sunday 9th December 2007
After a tiring week, in and out of the office I had nothing major planned for this weekend. The ‘Lost’ Weekend if you will. On Saturday, I got up around 9.30am and after breakfast headed over to Reading in the heavy rain for a pre-arranged appointment. Then after a productive discussion, I headed over back […]
