Kits and Mortar Tumblr Strange Attractor Del.icio.us links TwitterThis given to me by a mate who reads the Mirror (I never touch the filth, myself):
Pet groomer Glenda Johnson, 42, is learning Welsh so dogs in Llangybi, Carmarthenshire, can understand her commands.
Seems ludicrous until you remember the case of the farmer who bought a load of French dairy cows and then had to hire […]
Last night it was Bill Gates. Eurgh. He was a computing professor at the university I was studying at, and I liked him…
My subconscious is just winding me up on purpose now.
Looking for jobs again this morning. Still not finding anything at all. So far I've had not even so much as a snifter of interest from any agent - they all keep telling me that the market's quiet, and what am I doing in Dorset if I want work up north?
Towards the end of […]

Upon closer inspection, four of those jobs I printed out turned out to be actually the same job, just advertised by different agencies and using slightly different descriptions. I wish they wouldn't do that. Still, it's a job I can do with both hands tied behind my back, standing in the corner… ok, you get […]
Recently I noticed on Friendster that my network of people appeared to include a Rather Famous Musician (although he seems to have gone now). I was linked to this person by one of my friends, who had written a testimonial for said musician, so I'm pretty certain it was him. I found myself bemused to […]
Well, just sitting on the platform at Arundel station, waiting for the train to Chichester and the beginning of my journey back to the deepest, darkest depths of Dorset. It's been a lovely weekend, full of not very much except a little shopping, a little fixing of computers and a lot of Robin of Sherwood.
I […]
Just FYI, if you've been finding CnV a bit slow lately, it's cos Blog-City are doing updates. They should have them done by 14 Oct, so please bear with them til then.
I steal so much from Jonathan at A Final Analysis. This time, I'll just send you his way instead of appropriating his post as my own…
I'm happy to say that Chesney the Dog won the poll and that now I have available in my online shop a range of limited edition t-shirts, hoodies and sweatshirts for you to order featuring Chesney's lovely image. We take credit and debit cards, as well as cheques, and will ship anywhere. Order now to […]
No more blogging now til Monday when I get back.
Btw, yesterday was fantastic - Chris Sheldon's just a lovely guy and had lots of really interesting things to say. I spent most of our two hours meeting in stitches. The guy sure knows how to tell an anecdote!
Whiled away the rest of the afternoon […]
Discovered the Internet Anagram Server today. Apparently, my little blog here is a DATA CHOKED VOLCANO, which is interesting as I myself am an ASTRACHAN MAGMA NURSER.
Well, that explains it then.
Why do the Brits hate Blaine? Let Tom tell you because I really couldn't have put it better myself.
The BBC and The Guardian report on MSN’s decision to close all their UK chat rooms from 14 October because they are being used by porn spammers and paedophiles.
Chat rooms in the rest of Europe, the Middle East, Latin America and most of Asia are also for the chop. Rooms elsewhere will remain open […]
I sent my CV off to another eight agencies today, one of which actually had a job for me to apply for - a web project manager position in Leeds which would do me quite nicely. So fingers crossed.
I am, however, a teensy bit worried - most of the agents I’ve spoken to have […]
