God damn, Birksy, you suck! I rearrange my week because you say you’re going to visit on Wednesday evening and then you don’t turn up!

I can’t believe she dragged me round Asda for over an hour AGAIN. This is 4 weekends out of the last 5 , for God’s sake. It always seems to happen under some other pretence, like, “Let’s drive all the way to Swindon to go to this really interesting retail park”. OK, sounds good. She…

I had a crap swim today. I’m still getting over this cold I guess, as I was struggling after 200m and got a right headache. Wierd lethargy. On the way home I started spotting adverts on roundabouts. Not nice, interesting billboards, but poxy, little, rectangular notices, advertising things like conservatories and paving. Dull, dull, dull.…

Rubbish. My NTL broadband connection has been down since Saturday, and unlike the service status website says, the problem has not been resolved. Other NTL broadband users in Cardiff are having the same problems. You can still see this website, but I can’t get internet access from outside. I rang once, but after being on…

I’ve had enough. I am stepping (a very big step) backwards from the Jif website. Obviously I am so out of touch with the club that I am incapable of operating as a webmaster in it’s fullest sense. I will post no more news articles, no more race reports, no more photos and no more…

Fasthosts have finally put cardifftri.net back online, after 3 DAYS without service. Most of the website HAS NOT been transferred to the new server. Luckily I don’t think we’ve lost any data because I had a backup, but this is seriously screwing up my weekend. I’ve got a big pile of other crap to do…

Nooooooo! Half Life 2 has been put back to a December 1st release date! It was supposed to come out at the end of this month… I guess I knew in my gut it wouldn’t be ready in time. What can I play instead?

Aaaaagh! The first trial of running my own web server has hit me. We went away to Cheltenham this weekend, and just as we were leaving the house the electricity died. As people started appearing outside their houses we learned that the whole close was affected. Fine. So we unplugged everything and drove back to…

I’m updating the cardifftri.net website with photos and bits. I next need to add a bunch of stuff to the cardiffjif.com site that has been collecting. I want to be relaxing with a beer watching my new Two Towers DVD. I don’t want to be doing this! 🙁

Aaargh! I can’t live without my 20″ monitor! Is this how *normal* people work?
