of summer and trolleys and suchlike

yeash so summer started last night. for me anyway



'tall started when me and my holmes decided it would be great fun to go to fosse park and buy some fosters and multitaps and whatnot (I preordered the fifth dark tower book...gotta love student discount day at borders)



we were just leaving for the journey home when we realised that all of our stuff was quite heavy..



We almost gave up on living until we noticed an abandoned trolley in the Marks and Spencers car park which just happened to be the right size:D

As it was our only option, we opted to 'borrow' the trolley and launched a stealth like mission to escape the area with it.

Turned out we didn't really need to as no one gave a dman. so anyway after a very fun journey we got to my house and took a photo

anywho I guess I'll take it with me next time I go to fosse park but the point is that we had a great time (the most fun I've had in ages) and it truly felt like the start of summer does in hit motion pictures such as American Pie 2 and stuff.

Effctive web design

'twas a dark stormy night. In the damned world of computooooor two factions stared each other down. None of them moved. The sea of 1s and 0s soared along the ground underneath them. It was the final showdown between the digital 72ers and the 300dpi's. A whistle sounded out from the speakers above them and the game commenced. The 72ers ran towards the internet goal as the 300s sped towards the printer. what the 72s lacked in size, they made up in speed when it came to relaying digital information.

Had the lighting in the stadium been bad, the spectators wouldn't have been able to see the pixelbacks as they were designed to be viewed on paper. They were of place in the digital world and they know it but they pressed on, bent on getting to the printing goal before the next version of the magazine was released.

Meanwhile the 72'ers ran... the spectators could support them easily as they emitted their own light.

cyan, mageta, yellow and black. The team colours of the dpi's blurred past the green red and blue of the 72ers....

Things were getting rough, the coaches decided to call on their heavier players. The tiffs walked on to the field. In retaliation the 72ers coach callled on his fast players; the gifs. The gifs were small but had the capability to move a lot more than the regular jpegs. things were getting intense. The gifs sped along relaying their information to the goal, what they lacked in quality, they made up for in speed.

A critque of a fellow users site

In the following post I am going to critique Daniel Healeys site the url is Panzermensch

After reading thoroughly through this site, I have thought of several things to say...

The site is easy to read and uses a scheme of friendly and welcoming col our. There are enough pictures to keep someone that doesn't like reading interested and there isn't too much writing to bore people.


HOWEVER some of the spelling needs to be sorted to make it really user friendly
