Scotch Eggs and Latex Gloves at the Coach and Horses

I like scotch eggs. From the gourmet end of the Scotch Malt Whisky Society’s warm ham hock scotch egg with picalilli to a Ginsters scotch egg bar, I love the entire range of pig wrapped chicken precursor. At the end of last year I saw that the Qype folks (ta muchly Neil) had organised a [...]

iPad meh, iBook ooh?

The iPad announcement has come and there wasn’t much to surprise out at the front – 10″ish screen, running iPhone OS, new look and feel for a bunch of apps… Basically a big iPod Touch/iPhone with optional 3G. It’s a very shiny thing but I suspect that I won’t get one, despite lusting after it [...]

Boozes Elsewhere

As a) I like talking about myself and b) Kelsie and/or Mel over at Travels with my Fork sorted me some linkage I thought I’d put something here about what I’ve been writing over on my booze blog.
Anyways, recent things:

A quick review of Brewdog Harcore IPA
My writeup of the Salt Bar/Talisker Burns Night thing from last [...]

We are but unto ants

I have become scared. There is now preamble, bear with me.
I noticed today on macrumors.com, a site that I have become increasingly obsessed with as I have become addicted to the sweet drops that drip from Apple’s still milky udder, that the CEO of McGraw-Hill had broken a piece of news that most thought would [...]

I was a boring child

Shift Run Stop is a rather excellent podcast who don’t talk about games as much as their C64 oriented title might suggest. I have no problem with this other than that they got the name before I thought of it. It is a very good name. Anyways, they’ve been putting up snippets of video showing [...]

In the ghettooooo

I went to Paperchase today and bought myself a nice big sheet of white card. I was given approving looks by the various customers (I suspect that they don’t get that many Metallica hat wearing bearded men trying to delicately manoeuvre a large piece of card around while pleading with the cashier to be careful [...]

What I Been Doing

I might claim that this post is more for me to mark what I’ve been doing recently, but I suspect it’d be a lie and I’m merely an attention seeker with this being another demonstration of my ‘condition’. I MUST BE LOVED!
Ahem.
I recently tried my hand at editing the OneMoreGo podcast and failed quite spectacularly. [...]

The Queen Ate My Hamster – I Like Icke

I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned it on here before, but I have a strange amount of respect for David Icke. Now, don’t mistake respect for belief in any of the crazier end of what he says (there’s a lot of ‘just, like, be nice to everyone and stuff’ in his talks these days, from [...]

Recording Skype calls as two channels in Garageband

I’m posting this for two reasons:

I might forget how to do it
The guides I found online are rubbish

So, due to my new found love of hearing my voice online, aka podcasting, I’ve been looking into ways for me to record things. At the moment the lovely Matt records our (now bi-weekly) podcast and handles all [...]

I Like The Pretty Lights

It’s bastard cold outside, but it does look rather nice. I suspect that this means we are about to be plunged into a neverending winter, where trains will be frozen in their sheds, roads covered with frictionless ice and airplanes will fall from the sky, crushing people as they trudge through the drifts towards the [...]
