Smart and funny. I nearly spit food over my laptop at one point. I’ll be keeping an eye on this guy.

The network card for my ancient Mac arrived yesterday but I was at the garage getting our car repaired, so I didn’t get time to work on it. I found time today (strangely enough), and had a few issues getting the network to actually work. The machine had System 7.1, which is so old that [...]
Happy times for Crumpet

This morning Crumpet had a cry. It’s something she does on days when she’s stressed and something minor happens to tip her over the edge. In this instance, she was trying to record an audio comment for a podcast she was listening to, but she wasn’t getting any output from the microphone. All she could [...]

The band’s grown from 4 members to 8 and recruited the Slovak National Radio Orchestra to fill out the sound even further. Live gigging has made Sally Ellyson’s [...]

Yesterday was not nearly as much fun as I’d hoped it would be. Kym and Crumpet got frozen/blown about/rained on at the ‘festival’ at the Basin, and I stupidly brought my extremely-thin firewire cable for Giz and I to do some recording on the PowerBook.
