Movie Quiz Revisited
8 months ago I posted up the movie quiz thing Esran found. Well, i don;t think you guys tried hard enough with finding the answers so here it is again! Only the easy ones have gone already so good luck on that. I'll be a bit more helpful in giving clues this time, though.
Meme rules:

Putting a New Site together
Finally started some serious work on Nat and my personal web site. It's been sat there for a few months now and I've never got around to making the damned thing work. The closest I've come is to go through one of the automated site builder scripts and then leave it stagnating while I head of for some industrial thumb twiddling. Of course, this ( Read more... ) -

Delia Smith's a Bitch
We had my parents come visit us on the Bank Holiday weekend and so it was time to put on the apron and do some cooking. I'd decided the food for the day had to be MEAT, spelled with a capital MEAT, and so I hit Borough Market on the search for some short ribs for a bit of braising.
Could I find any? Could I buggery. Nobody had any, with the main ( Read more... ) -

Offensive Humour
Whilst standing stark-bollock naked in the changing rooms at the gym yesterday I got to thinking.
I don't think gay men be allowed to get use the men's changing areas.

I may have been overdoing it on the eliptical, of course...
