An Update!

Phil — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 13:49:09 +0000

Nothing to report. Just me being lazy as usual. Although I did go to Bath racecourse on the weekend and done some 1 and 2 pound betting. I won a few of the races and came away with a profit. It was even more the better because I found 20 quid on the floor. Must [...]

i40

Phil — Wed, 14 Apr 2010 11:52:20 +0000

August Bank Holiday I shall be geeking it out and spending time at i40. My ticket is booked and paid and my seat hotly debated, but picked. It’s been almost 5 years since I last attended an i-series LAN and I am really looking forward to this one. I Get to see some people I see regularly (Tom), some people I’ve not seen for awhile (Phil) and some I’ve never met in person (Ben). All in all it should be good 4 days.

(Yes Ben, I stole your picture)

Over the last month I have been busy setting up another project with Ben. For those of you who are curious what it it then please head over to http://www.soidh.co.uk

Bristol / Maidenhead, UK. – Apr. 8, 2010

Myself and Ben are proud to announce our new project SoiDH – Source or it Didn’t Happen.

A pick of rumors, facts, articles and reviews from around the web’s best Technology sites and forums. Enough to keep the every-geek happy. From time to time you will also see some in-house reviews and articles.

We enjoy reading this type of stuff and enjoy posting about it so creating a site where we can do just that seemed like the logical choice.

Hope you guys enjoy visiting it. http://www.soidh.co.uk

Haribo R Us

Phil — Sun, 28 Mar 2010 12:43:36 +0000

I popped into Toys R Us this afternoon to find some Paint By Numbers as a gift – which they did not have. A part from being distracted by some Lego Technic I departed only with a huge tub of Haribo.

The Pacific

I started watching The Pacific last night which premiered on the 14th March 2010. I only had time to watch the first episode, although I’m sure I will watch Part 2 tonight. Very much like Band Of Brothers, plenty of Drama and just a teasing of Action in Part 1.

Theater Concessions

Phil — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 15:57:04 +0000

I went to the Theater last night. It was awesome. The price of food and drink was not. A single 500ml bottle of Pepsi costed £2.20. Robbery. I ended up paying around £7.40 for two 500ml bottles of Pespsi and a single bag of 215g of Wine Gums. If it wasn’t for us being already up at the Upper Circle we would of walked back out down to the local Tesco express to smuggle supplies in.

Derren Brown – Enigma

Phil — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 14:56:26 +0000

Last night I went to see Derren Brown at the Bristol Hippodrome. It was such an awesome show which was let down by the cramped seating. The view was great, was facing center stage, but as we left it late booking we was seated in the Upper Circle, which are cramped “padded” wooden benches. It was not helped by the fact that there was obese people sat next to us which occupied more than their paid for allocated seating. I had planned to take some photo of Derren but a noticed was issue before the performance to indicated it is forbidden, I also felt that it could spoil the surprise for anyone planning on seeing it. I did however take a photo of the stage, although it came out rather poor.

I will not go into any detail on what he performed but if you have watched any of his theater work on the TV then you can expect similar stuff but done differently. There quite a bit of new stuff too and as always I was blown away on how it was done. It all ends in typical Derren Brown style where it all just comes together and your left thinking you cheeky clever bastard!

The show started just after 19:30 and ended just after 22:30. There was around a 20 minute intermission in between. It just amazes me how much energy he performs with considering he does it mostly every night.

Not only was his “magic” outstanding, his presence on stage, his whole showmanship and the way he interacts with the audience is all a joy to watch.

Highly recommended.

Bus Stops

Phil — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 12:45:55 +0000

Two bus stop next to each other, I’m the first there at one of them. I have to catch the bus that stops at that particular stop, I do not have an alternative. The bus comes along and everyone waiting at the other bus stop thinks they have right to push in and get on the bus that stop at my bus stop because they have been waiting longer than me. Look it is not my problem you can catch multiple buses to reach your destination, but if your originally planned bus does not arrive before mine don’t go thinking you can push in at my bus stop – I don’t care how long you have been waiting before me. This was not your chosen bus stop. Fuck off and get to the back of the queue.

Bus Chronicles

Phil — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 12:38:44 +0000

I have set up a new category to journal all my busing activities. I often see / hear / experience interesting or funny moments on my two bus journey to and from work. It is difficult to say which number out the possible 4 buses I can catch provide the most entertainment but if I had to guess than it would be the No. 51. The other three buses are: No. 20, 8 & 9. I will label each post something like:

BC: [51] 16-03-10

If it is not number related then it will just be put in the Bus Chronicles category with it’s own title.
