Drunk spacemen

To be fair if I was in charge of a few billion dollars worth of technology, sitting on a couple of thousand litres of rocket fuel with the eyes of the World and the hopes of hundreds of scientists, mathematicians & engineers upon me and THEN blasted into outerspace... I reckon I'd have drink or two.

Facebook

So, I've finally caved to mounting pressure and signed myself up to Facebook. So far it's looking quite interesting. All my college friends are on there as are a few mates from Brighton. I've had a few chats with some old work colleagues and been turned into a zombie.

Flood






These have to be two of the most dramatic pictures I've seen in relation to the current wave (pardon the pun) of floods we've been experiencing here in the UK. They look like they could be stills from some big budget disaster film with their scrawled, red, graffiti and ominous shadowed passer-by.
The whole thing is pretty scary and I'm put in mind of John Wyndham's excellent book 'The Kraken Wakes' when the BBC talks of the Thames bursting it's banks. Let's hope it's not the shape of things to come eh?

HOORAY!

I just had a KIT-KAT and I got a whole finger of chocolate! If you don't know how brilliant that is then trust me, it's the Holy Grail of the KIT-KAT eater.
