..again!

My Web site was added to the readers’ showcase section of this months .net magazine, with a mug shot of yours truly to boot.

As prompted by the Bitbox site, I’ve uploaded my workspace to the flickr group, see how I work from here: http://www.flickr.com/groups/bb_workspaces/pool/

Compare that to last years entry and you start the shuddering. Sorry about your eyes:

Loving this font right now, it’s called Karabine and it’s by Jonathan Paquette (http://www.jonathanpaquette.com/), you can download it from the dafont Web site here: http://www.dafont.com/karabine.font (clever use of web page extension renaming to include .font instead of .php).

I had a wee play and made a wallpaper which now adorns my desktop:

The kind folks at .net magazine have kindly sent me a magazine in which my templates are featured on the free CD, I have below some photos of the magazine piece itself. The coverage I get is quite modest, but the hits I have been getting to my Web design company’s Web site have increased quite a bit.

Sorry let me re-phrase that, it’s fucking huge. The lady at the farm shop said that they have been selling them so fast that they had run out of all the 7 foot trees - which was what I came for but she could do me a 9 foot tree for the price of a 7 foot. Good idea, and how kind of her I thought.

Then I helped the lady lift the tree to be bagged and we dragged it to the car, putting it in via the boot behind the drivers side and onto the dashboard on the navigators side. It only *just* fit in.

If you don’t know me, I have a 1996 (?) Renault Clio, and they are very small, so driving home consisted of me having no rear view mirror and no vision out of my navigators side at all, which really was a bit dangerous. Oh, and the tree was covered with snow too, which oh so kindly melted all over the seats which I am yet to clear up.

Good job we have an old barn conversion, think it might still need to go in the middle of the room!

Think of how many presents can go underneath?!
